Does anybody have any good recommendations on any consignment stores near ft riley. I am wanting to sell baby/toddler/little kids clothes. What percentage of profit is fair or reasonable for this area? Any ideas on payouts for outfits, jeans, sleepers, etc? Any help or insight would be great to help me decide if consigning is right for me.

The only ones I know of are Rockstar and Rodgers and the post Thrift Store

Anyone know what percentage the Post Thrift Store is up to now? It seemed like I remember it was 10%, then it was 15%, then 20%--and then it jumped to 30%. I'm sorry, but I find that's just too much.

High consignment fees also benefit the store more than the seller. They encourage the sellers to jack up their prices in order to compensate for what they pay out, and if the item is outrageously priced and doesn't sell then it becomes Thrift Store property if the seller doesn't come back and get it before the contract ends--but that's kind of hard to do if you've PCS'd, isn't it?

Rockstar and Rodgers only accepts named brand adult clothes.

I just happened upon one in JC today. Weesale Boutique or something, just north of Bella 's. I don't know any details but you could go in and talk, they were friendly.

I went there too today and I really was not very impressed. The prices seemed steep. She said 60% if it sells, which isn't terrible, but it isn't the best for the area either. I think I will just stick with ebay because it is 85% after fees. That is a 25% difference.
