Merchandise Prep

Please group items together so that they will equal a value of at least $4.00. They may be pinned together on a hanger. The better they look, the better they sell! Please take time to wash and iron your clothes if necessary. Please check for stains, broken zippers, torn hemlines, etc.

Use small PLASTIC hangers for sizes 8 and below. Use larger PLASTIC hangers for sizes 10 and above. No metal hangers, please!

Safety pin/rubber band all sets and accessories securely together. TWO PIECE OUTFITS SHOULD INCLUDE EACH PIECE ON A SEPARATE HANGER, AND THEN RUBBER BAND THE HANGERS TOGETHER AT THE TOP OR PINNED BACK TO BACK ON ONE HANGER. Both pieces need to be viewable without unpinning them.

Blankets and Loose Items

Hang and pin blankets over hangers so that shoppers can see them. If they are small receiving blankets, group 2 or 3 together in a Ziploc bag. Safety pin tag to Ziploc bag.

Bottles, bibs, rattles, socks, and bows should be grouped together appropriately in Ziploc bags. Seal with clear packing tape and pin tag to Ziploc bag. It also helps to write your consignor number and price on the Ziploc with a Sharpie in case the tag comes off during the sale.

Toys, Furniture, Equipment

Must be clean and in working order (batteries included.) Small parts must be bagged and attached to the main part very securely. If parts get separated it will not sell.
Games should be taped closed. Puzzles, books, and small toys should be grouped accordingly and put in Ziploc bags. Secure with clear packing tape and pin tag to the Ziploc bag.

It would be very disappointing as a child to receive this and not be able to use it.

It is also good to write your consignor number and info on the Ziploc bag with a Sharpie in case the tag comes off. Large puzzles should be wrapped securely in clear Saran wrap to keep the pieces intact. Please make sure you have all the pieces for the puzzles, games, etc. Please do not tape DVD/VIDEO Game cases until they have been inspected.

TOYS NOT PACKAGED APPROPRIATELY WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

Large Little Tikes Toys and Furniture are in high demand! When tagging large toys, it is best to also attach a piece of masking tape to the toy with your consignor information. This will enable us to sell your toy even if the tag comes off!

We sell 95% of Toys, Furniture and Baby Equipment!
