- Know some of the mainstream brands, so you know if you’re getting a deal or not; ie: designer jeans like Rock and Republic, Citizens of Humanity, etc.
- Don’t hesitate to ask about a price – if something has been priced inappropriately you will likely get a discount on the item.
- You’ll often find brand new items that a consignor bought and never wore – these are generally great deals.
- Look for good quality items to add to your classic, versatile pieces in your closet.
- To update your look, consignment stores are great places to find funky tops and skirts at low costs, which is important if you only wear the items for one season.
- If you know your style, or what you’re looking for, don’t feel frustrated by looking through several racks of “one of’s” clothing. It does take time (although sometimes that’s the fun part!), and sometimes you may browse right past something you would like without even noticing. If you ask whoever is working in the store, she’ll find the best items for your personal taste and style, quickly.
- If you’re looking for a whole new style, or maybe you’ve lost or gained some weight and need to replace some items in your closet, consignment shopping is a great, inexpensive way to do that. Don’t hesitate to call ahead and have some items to your personal preference put aside for when you want to come in.
