Drop- Off Instructions

Drop off Days for the Spring/Summer Show will be Wednesday May 13th and Thursday May 14th.

We try to make dropping off your items as quick and painless as possible. Here are a few guidelines to follow when bringing your items to drop-off:

Bring a minimum of 15 items to consign.

Don't wait until the last day to drop-off your items. The lines tend to be longer on the last day.

If you have more than 75 items you need to schedule an appointment and avoid the long lines.

Order your clothes by size and sex. It will make it easier to put them on the sale racks.

Avoid bringing small children to drop-off. Space is limited and it can get very congested. (Children are allowed.)

Make sure you follow the tagging instructions. Check each tag to make sure you have included your consignor number.

Put your name and consignor number on any baskets and rolling racks that you bring. We have baskets and racks that probably look just like yours.

You MUST sign a contract before you give us your items and you MUST have an inventory sheet to turn in with your items.

Make sure the information we have on file for you is correct.

If you will not be picking up your items or check on pick-up day and would like for us to mail your check, we will need a self-addressed stamped envelope at drop-off.

Pick- Up Instructions

Pick- up for the Spring/Summer show will be Sunday May 17th at the Diboll Civic Center from 1pm-5pm.

Information to know at Pick-Up:

Know your consignor number. All items that are to be returned are sorted by consignor number.

If you send someone to pick up your items, please make sure they know your consignor number.

You will receive your check if your sales covered the facility fee.

You will receive the cards of the items that were sold.

You will receive a printout that shows the amount and price of the items that you sold. The total will be the sales less the consignor facility fee and less our percentage of the sales.

Safety/ Recall Information for Consignors

In August 2008, legislation was passed known as the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) in order to protect children ages 12 and under against the effects of lead in products such as clothing, accessories, furniture and toys. Implementation of this law is to go into effect Tuesday, February 10, 2009. The intention of the Law was to increase greater regulation for manufacturers and retailers and not the resale industry. We at Twice as Nice would never intentionally sell anything to the consumer that would harm anyone or would ever intentionally expose them or other children to the harmful effects of lead. Below, you will find links that will educate and inform you on the latest information regarding the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) as well as other safety information and recalls.
