We love children (we are moms, too!) But we are extremely busy on Pre-Sale and our floor is very crowded with lots of wonderful merchandise. There isn't much room to maneuver strollers with babies. We strongly suggest that you NOT bring your children to the Pre-Sale. Just bring a tape measure and their measurements and enjoy a mom's night out. Children are welcome to attend on one of the Public shopping days.
The BUMP is a shopping bump on your consignor shopping time, so you shop at 5pm on Friday evening vs. 8am! Consignors receive this extra perk by choosing to sell all of your items at half price during our half price days and donating all of your unsold items at the end of our event.
We are excited to offer a ladies boutique section of high-end athletic wear for mommy. Consignors may enter gently used active wear that is current and in excellent condition. ACCEPTABLE brands include and are LIMITED to Athleta, Free People, Lululemon, Aritzia, Alo Yoga, & Patagonia. All items are subject to Rhea Lana's quality standards and review.
We are not able to accept ANY clothing that has odor of any kind. When it is hung on the rack with other clothes, the odor spreads. We must be sensitive to children and families with allergies and we absolutely cannot sell any items with smoke odor, pet odor, or any other kind of odor. Clothing with pet hair is also not acceptable.
You may enter additional batches under separate consignor numbers until we reach maximum capacity. Remember, the Participation Fee is $10 per consignor number. Once you have entered 200 items in your batch, you will need to sign up for a second consignor number and start a new batch under this new consignor number for any remaining items. This is different than when you could start a new batch. With a new Consignor Number, your $10 participation fee will automatically be deducted. Please note, in order to allow as many consignors as possible we are asking that each consignor has no more then 2 consignor codes per household.
