Kids' Consignment Sale
How to Consign
- Consignors tag their items with an identifying number (issued to them when they register) and the prices they have set themselves
- Consignors drop their items off to the sale venue prior to the event and pick up any remaining unsold items (or donate them to charity) after the sale has concluded
- Consignors earn passes to private Pre-Sale events that enable them to shop bargains prior to the public
- Consignors keep 70% of the selling price of their items, while itty bitty boutique earns a modest 30% commission
- Consignors are paid by check after the sale concludes, less a $12 administration fee to help defray some of the sale expenses
- Consignors are not required to work the sale, but those who volunteer to do so receive benefits such as earlier admittance to Pre-Sales, waived administration fees, and/or higher commission on sold items

Before your registration is complete, the system will prompt you to signify that you have reviewed the Consignor Agreement and will abide by its stipulations. If you would like to review that document in advance, click below to open a PDF version of the agreement.
Clean out your kids' closets, toy rooms, and bookshelves, and pull together your baby equipment no longer in use. Please make sure that all the items you choose to put in the sale are in like-new condition, have no stains or tears, are of the current styles and appropriate season, include all associated pieces, and are in working order. We reserve the right to refuse any item that we deem inappropriate for the sale. For detailed lists of items that will be accepted and those that will not, please visit our page entitled
Clean, hang, and tag your items using the automated Tag Creator on our website (link below). In order to keep our sale organized and easy for everyone to shop, we have created detailed instructions on getting your items ready for the sale. Please visit our page entitled

Drop your items off to us Monday (April 23rd), Tuesday (April 24th), or the morning of Wednesday (April 25th). Drop-off appointments are available Monday between the hours of 10:00am and 8:00pm and Tuesday between 8:00am and 8:00pm. Appointments may be adjusted later if you find that your schedule changes, but we would appreciate you scheduling a tentative appointment as soon as you can so that we can begin scheduling adequate Volunteer Workers to assist you. Open Drop-Off (no appointment necessary) will be held from 8:00am to 12:00pm on Wednesday, after which we will close registration and organize the space for the Pre-Sales later that afternoon/evening (see the yellow box to the right for info on the "ibb Reloaded" Drop-Off block). Please bring your clothing items sorted by GENDER and SIZE to expedite the drop-off process. We reserve the right to return any item we deem inappropriate for the sale - please adhere closely to the guidelines on the What to Bring page of our website so that you do not waste time tagging items that will not be accepted. Plan to spend 30 minutes to an hour at drop-off, though it may take less. We'll ask that you help put away your toys, shoes, nursery items, etc. while we hang your clothes.
Mark your calendar to shop the Consignor Pre-sale at 5:00pm on Wednesday, April 25th. This is the night before the sale opens to the public, and will afford you great selection! You will receive one pass for yourself for 5:00pm admittance, and a bonus pass for a spouse or guest, who will be admitted at 6:00pm!
We ask that Consignors shop alone during the Pre-Sale, though you may invite a spouse or friend to shop an hour later (at 6:00pm) that same evening. While your children are welcome to shop with you during the public sale hours, we respectfully request that no children be brought to the Pre-Sales. The space will be crowded, the shopping time limited, and it presents a safety issue to have young children running about.
Consignors are also invited to shop the Half-Price Pre-Sale at 8:00 pm on Friday, April 27th. Anything that hasn't been marked "ND" (No Discount) will be sold for 50% off!
Again, we respectfully request that you plan to shop alone.
Want to shop even earlier? Become a Volunteer Worker and shop the Pre-Sale ahead of the rest of the Consignors! Encourage your spouse or friend to volunteer as well, and the two of you CAN shop together during the Volunteer Worker Pre-Sale! Volunteer Workers may also bring their children to the Pre-Sale! For complete details, visit our page entitled
Pick up your unsold items on Sunday, April 29th between 10:30 am - 12:00 noon. By registering as a Consignor, you are accepting the stipulation that any unsold items not picked up during this time will be donated to Court-Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Lane County and the Foster and Adoptive Parent Association (FAAPA) of Lane County to benefit abused and neglected children in the area.
We are absolutely unable to make any exceptions to this rule. Unfortunately, we do not have the ability to hold items for later pick-up, as we have to vacate Camp Harlow Sunday afternoon. If you are unable to pick up the items yourself, please arrange to have a friend or family member do it for you!
At the conclusion of the sale, unsold items will be sorted out into piles by Consignor Number. When you pick-up, we ask that you double-check that everything in your pile to be sure that it does, in fact, belong to you. We will have a designated area for CASA/FAAPA donations, so you may leave any items that you do not wish to take home, and we will be sure that it finds its way to a deserving foster child!
Look for your check to arrive in the mail on or around May 15th! You will receive 70% of the selling price of your sold items, less a $12 administration fee.
Volunteer Workers will have their commissions and fees adjusted in accordance with the number of shifts worked.

*NEW THIS SALE!*
Consignors may bring additional items to sell after the traditional Drop-Off ends! We are opening "ibb Reloaded" on
Thursday, April 26th
5:00 pm - 9:00 pm ONLY
This is a great opportunity for those who run out of time preparing their items to get an extra day to collect things to sell!
We will still close Consignor Drop-Off PROMPTLY at 12:00 noon on Wednesday, April 25th to organize the floor for Pre-Sales that evening. We will then re-open for "ibb Reloaded" on Thursday, April 26th from 5 - 9 pm. Bring your previously overlooked toys, furniture, strollers, clothes, etc. to Camp Harlow, and Volunteers will assist you with checking them in.
The Consignor Registration system and the online Tag Creator will be disabled to the public at 12:00 noon on Wednesday, April 25th so that the data will be available at the checkout lanes. You MUST register as a Consignor before this deadline. We also HIGHLY recommend entering as much inventory into the system as possible before the Tag Creator is disabled, even if you cannot actually prepare the items for sale (clean, hang, pin, etc) until after it closes. Tags may be printed after the system is disabled, but no more items may be added. If you are creating tags after Wednesday at noon, they must be handwritten on 3 x 5 index cards using this format...
All newly submitted items must be tagged so as to allow them to be discounted on Half Price Day (they may NOT be marked ND).
