Consigning at Max & Lily's! ♻️

Children's consignments, OPTIMIZED!

    We ACCEPT ALL SEASONS of consignments, ALL THE TIME! 🎉
    No need to store your children's outgrown items, just bring them to us ANY TIME of the year and we will date them for a 2 MONTH CONSIGNMENT period that begins when your items are MOST IN DEMAND!

    We are CURRENTLY dating SPRING items, and FUTURE dating SUMMER items for 6/1/24, FALL items for 10/1/24, and WINTER items for 12/1/24. 

    We are VERY SELECTIVE about what we can accept on consignment. Follow these steps to MAXimize the items we can accept for sale in our store!

     

    STEP 1 - SORT YOUR ITEMS AT HOME! 

    Carefully look over CLOTHING ITEMS in a well lit room and remove any that are not currently styled, have staining (even minor), pilling, wash wear, or other signs of wear.Freshly launder the items that pass the test, and place them, folded, into a flat bottomed basket, bin, or other container. We do not accept clothing items out of plastic bags. All TOYS & GAMES should be wiped down, have working batteries, be complete with all pieces counted & ready for our sales floor.INFANT GEAR should be inspected for defects, checked for recalls, and thoroughly cleaned before bringing in for consignment. This includes machine washing fabrics when possible, and spot cleaning when not.  Additionally, all hard surfaces must be wiped down and squeaky clean, including crevices. Be sure to include working batteries when required & any manuals or original packaging you may have. We also accept BOOKS, HOME DECOR, FURNITURE, BEDDING, & MORE! Remember to carefully look over, clean, and prepare items as described above. When in doubt about an item you'd like to consign you can reach us at (860) 920-5270 or (860) 839-8239 during store hours.

    STEP 2 - BRING US YOUR ITEMS

    Anytime during normal business hours, NO APPOINTMENT REQUIRED! We can usually look through your items while you wait, but during busy times we may ask you to leave them with us to look at and collect any no thank you's within a week. We can also pass along any items we can not accept for sale in the store if you prefer to leave with empty bins. Please note, we don't accept consignments during clearance sales. 

    STEP 3 - THAT'S IT! All that's left for you to do is SPEND or COLLECT your 40-50% RETURN! 
    As your items sell, the money will accrue in your account to use in the store or cash out. We can also send PayPal & Zelle payments if requested.
    Money accrued in your account, never goes anywhere if you forget to check on it, but if you'd like any unsold items back, be sure to set yourself a reminder. We extend a 2 week grace period at the end of your consignment period during which we guarantee your items will be available to pick up. We will give you a list of what's left over but you will have to find & collect your items back off the sales floor, so be sure to give yourself some extra time. Items left beyond the 2 weeks grace period become store property and may be sold or donated without notice or compensation to the consignor.
