Why consign your goods with Little Darlings –Babe & Maternity?

A: Everyone knows that kids grow out of their clothes before they have had a chance to get any wear, toys sit in the toy box and may get used once or twice, babes grow out of their cots, no longer need their high chair, prams or change tables and they are stored in the shed, too good to give away or no-one to give them to. Some clothes have never been worn and still have the tags on them.
 

A: This is your opportunity to make money on all those things that are sitting around your home and stored in your shed.
 

A: By consigning your goods there are no advertising costs for garage sales or classified ads. All you need to do is drop it off and we do the rest.

How does it work you ask ?

A: You bring in your good quality branded clothing new born to size 10, baby furniture, accessories, prams, quality branded maternity wear etc and if time permits the staff will itemise the goods on the spot and write each individual item on to a consignment account. We provide you with a consignment list and everything is individually tagged and then put out in the store on display.

A: Little Darlings will put your items on display for sale for a three month period. As your items sell your account total increases. At your leisure you can pick up money owed to you under the value of $100 at any time. Over the value of $100 will require 24 hour notice or you can nominate to have your credit card credited or a direct deposit into your nominated bank account – Its your choice.

How easy is that!

A: Little Darlings has a web page that will be in full operation mid year advertising our goods on line. If you chose to sell your items in our store your goods may get some Web exposure consequently increasing the likelihood of a sale for you.

A: We value all our customers and want your continued business so we decided to reduce
our profit by splitting the sale proceeds consignee receives 60% and Little Darlings 40%. This price arrangement is the best in Geelong.

If at the end of a two month period your items have not sold they will be put on sale to increase your chance of putting money into your pocket. If your items have not sold at the end of the consignment period of three months you will be required to pick up the remainder of items.

Before the end of the three month consignment period it is the consignees responsibility to check if there are any unsold items and to arrange to pick these items up from the store. If contact has not been made within a two week period to arrange pick up, these items will be donated to Little Darlings chosen charity.

If your items have been dropped off and not processed on the spot, some items may be deemed as not suitable for sale and can be stored at Little Darlings. It is essential that you contact Little Darlings via email, phone or visiting the store within a week to check if there are any unsuitable items or alternatively put your email address on the consignment account and we will contact you. You will be required to pick these items up within two weeks of delivery.
