SUMMER CONSIGNMENT SALE!!!

July 10, 2020


Saturday 7/25 (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!

  • In order to help keep things a little safer during the sale in regards to Covid-19, this year we will be setting up the consignment tables outside in both of the loading bays. We’re planning to get some event tents as well to help provide shade in the outdoor shopping areas. Having the tables set up outside will allow us to spread things out in a larger area so that shoppers can maintain some distance from one another, as well as being in the open air.
    • All shoppers will be required to wear a mask.
    • All shoppers will be required to use the hand sanitizer provided at the entrance of the shopping area before entering.
    • Complementary individually wrapped pens will be available for use at the checkout provided by Georgetown Cash Express.
    • We will be sanitizing shopping baskets between customers. Please feel free to bring your own reusable shopping bags or baskets with you for ease of shopping!
  • IN CASE OF HEAVY OR PERSISTENT RAIN (more than just a random light sprinkle since the event tents should be sufficient to protect the merchandise if there is a brief shower) we will move the sale date to the following Saturday 8/1. We will watch the weather carefully leading up to the sale & will make a final decision the day before.

CONSIGNEES:

Consignment Sale Drop-off:

Since we are not currently open for our regular operating hours, drop-offs will be a little different for this sale. Instead of holding drop-offs the full week before the sale, we will be accepting consignment drop-offs all throughout the month on the following days:

  • WEDNESDAYS 7/8, 7/15 & 7/22 (4-7pm)
  • SATURDAYS 7/11 & 7/18 (11am-7pm)
  • MONDAY 7/20 (10am-Noon)
  • TUESDAY 7/21 (4-7pm)
    • If you are unable to drop off during these days/times please text me at 859-361-4543 to arrange a drop-off time.

Scrap Paper Scizzors keeps 15% of the proceeds from all items sold, and you will receive the balance as store credit.

  • Put your initials (must be 3 letters- for example- first, middle, and last MDW), the price you are asking, as well as the item # (from 1 to whatever) on each of your items.
    • You must use PERMANENT labels so that they do not fall off. (We will not accept items priced with sticky notes, or on pieces of paper taped on with scotch tape as these are prone to fall off or stick to other items & get rung up incorrectly.)
    • If your items are grouped in ziplock bags, you can write the label info directly on the bag using a Sharpie marker.
    • DO NOT put an itemized list of what is in the bags on the bag or tape/staple bags closed- it prevents shoppers from seeing what is in the bag, & they can unzip the bags to better view items if needed.
  • Bring an itemized inventory list along with your consignment items when you drop them off. Inventory list should include:
    • Name, initials used, & phone # at the top
    • corresponding item # (1-whatever), basic description (such as “paper pack” or “assorted stamps”), & item price
      • Info for each item should be listed on a single line, with a separate line for each one.
    • grand total at the bottom for all items being sold.
      • Numbering all of your items on both the price sticker and inventory list makes it easier for us to reconcile your items after the sale.
      • If you would like a blank inventory spreadsheet, I can email one to you, just let me know!
  • If you are selling papers or loose sticker sheets/embellishments, they must be bundled into ziploc 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. (2-2.5 gallon ziploc bags for 12×12 paper can usually be found at the Dollar Tree, and occasionally are available at Walmart or Kroger. Gordon Food Services in Lexington also carries them.)
    • 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.
      • It is especially important that items are packaged properly this year since we are holding the sale outside- we do not want items to get blown away, or ruined if there is light rain (even with the event tents, a light sprinkle of rain could still get blown in from the sides.)

Please feel free to call/text 859-361-4543 or email us with any questions you may have.
