Consignment Policies

At Forget Me Nots, we recycle quality. This is how you help us do it:

  1. You bring in contemporary clothing and accessories that you no longer love. No consignments are accepted on Sundays. Forget Me Nots sells casual-wear, business-casual and semi-formal (in season). Our customers are looking for the best quality items purchased new within the last two years.
  2. We accept items that are in excellent and salable condition. Items should be clean and wrinkle-free and can be brought in either on hangers (which we will return to you) or folded neatly in a basket or bag (NO TRASHBAGS PLEASE). Remember, the better condition your items are in, the better the price.
  3. Some reasons we may refuse articles: stains, rips, lost buttons, dated, too worn, mothball or cigarette odors, ripped and/or stained linings, below set quality standards.
  4. Forget Me Nots determines the price of an item, which we base on original price, condition of the item, present demand for similar items, etc. Sometimes, after acceptance of an item, we may discover problems with an item that require an immediate markdown or donation (see #3). Please examine your items carefully before bringing them in to assure that they are in salable condition.
  5. You and Forget Me Nots split the final selling price 50/50. We consign items for 60 days. Prices can be reduced any time during that period.
  6. Consignors may pick up money owed to them at any time. Checks can be mailed out only at the end of the consignment period at the request of a consignor. If you wish your unsold items back, it is your responsibility to call a day or two before your consignment period ends and ask that we gather them for you.
  7. Items that are left 5 days past their consignment period become the property of Forget Me Nots and are subject to donation.
  8. We accept seasonal items only. Spring and summer items are accepted from March to August; fall and winter items are accepted from September to February.
  9. Although all possible care will be taken of your merchandise, Forget Me Nots is not responsible for damage or loss.
