Saturday 2/25 (11am-8pm)
Bring in all of your old scrapbooking supplies to sell and earn money to buy all new supplies, or just come on out and pick up some great bargains on lightly used & new scrapbook supplies!
- The past few years we have been fortunate enough to have use of the space at the front corner of our building, however that space is now occupied. Therefore we will return to holding the sale in the back of the store, but will also be expanding the sale area into the entire length of the hallway in order to open things up a bit more and reduce crowding inside the store.
CONSIGNEE INFO:
CONSIGNEE DROP-OFF
We will be accepting consignment drop-offs for the 3 weeks prior to the sale. You may drop items off from Monday 2/6- Friday 2/24 anytime during open store hours.
- To check store hours: Go to the Calendar Tab then click on the hours listed for each day to expand them to show full open-close times.
- If you are unable to drop off during any of the days/times listed on the calendar, please text me 859-361-4543 & I will try to arrange a drop-off time.
Scrap Paper Scizzors keeps 20% of the proceeds from all items sold, and you will receive the balance as store credit.
PRICING, PACKAGING, AND LABELING
- Put your initials (must be 3 letters- for example, first, middle, and last- MDW), and the price you are asking on each of your items, as well as the item # (from 1 to whatever).
- Please use PERMANENT LABELS for pricing your items, or if they are grouped in ziploc bags, you may WRITE YOUR PRICING INFO DIRECTLY ON THE BAG WITH A SHARPIE. If your labels are not sticking well, you can use packing tape over the label to secure it to the item.
- Bring or email your itemized inventory list with corresponding item #, basic description (such as “paper pack” or “assorted stamps”), prices, and grand total for all items selling, along with your consignment items when you drop them off.
- Email us if you need a copy of the PRE-FORMATTED BLANK INVENTORY LIST (please designate whether you need the Excel version for a PC, or Google Spreadsheets version for Apple products or tablets) to enter your items into. (Add rows as needed, & delete any unused rows.)
- If your list is multiple pages, please print or write out your inventory list as SINGLE SIDED ONLY! Do not print or write on both sides of the paper- this makes it very difficult for us to flip through the sheets when we are reconciling items after the sale.
- If you are selling papers, loose sticker sheets/embellishments, or other small items, they must be bundled into ziploc (or other resealable) bags and sold as a unit.
- This will prevent them from becoming damaged and allow us to more easily track your inventory, as well as make them easier to shop. (XL 2-2.5 gallon ziploc bags for 12×12 paper can usually be found at Dollar Tree, Walmart or Kroger. Gordon Food Services in Lexington also carries them in bulk.)
- 12×12 Paper Pads DO need to be placed in XL zipper bags, upside down- loose end facing toward the zipper, glue end toward the bottom of the bag. This allows shoppers to flip through the paper pads without removing them from the bag, and helps keep the pads from getting damaged when they are pulled in and out of the bins. (Smaller paper pads need to be placed in corresponding sized bags in the same way.)
- Try to use ziploc bags close to the size of the items you are grouping. (For example, if you are grouping 6 small 4”x6” embellishment sheets, use a quart size bag.) This makes the items easier to shop and prevents them from taking up excess space during the sale.
- For bundling paper, embellishments, stickers, or other small items, group them in large bundles of like items and price them higher, rather than small bundles at a lower price.
- PLEASE make sure your ziploc bags close completely so that the items do not fall out. We will not be held responsible for loose items that have fallen out of their packages & become damaged or lost due to improper packaging. DO NOT staple or tape the bags closed.
- Large items (such as albums & organizers/totes), & pre-boxed sets (such as Stampin’ Up stamp sets in the plastic storage boxes) DO NOT need to be placed in ziploc bags- price them individually and place labels directly on them.
- In the past couple years, we have had numerous consignees drop off items that have not been packaged or labeled properly, costing us a significant amount in time (5-6 days) & supplies (labels, packing tape, bags) to repackage/relabel them. As of this year, any consignees with a considerable quantity of items needing to be repackaged or relabeled will have a $5 service fee deducted from their sales credit to help offset these additional costs to us. We don’t mind fixing an occasional item here & there, and this fee will not be applied if you just have a random item or two that needs to be fixed.
Please feel free to call or text Melissa 859-361-4543, or email us and we’re happy to help you out with any questions you may have regarding pricing, bundling, etc.
