Online Consignment Stores
ONLINE CONSIGNMENT STORE #1: THE REAL REAL
POTENTIAL MONEY: 60 percent of selling price goes to you, 40 percent goes to The Real Real.
THEIR SALES: Unknown – they sell on their site, and not Ebay.
CONSIGNMENT PERIOD: 180 days
WHAT YOU DO: Sign up as a member and complete an online form with a description of your items and their approximate original price. A sales rep will email you with confirmation of what pieces they’ll accept.
THE PERK: Lucky enough to have 10 or more designer items and live in LA, San Fran, San Diego, Dallas or the NYC tri-state area? Then you can skip the shipping cost and set up an in-person “white glove” appointment with The Real Real by emailing stylist@therealreal.com.
KEEP IN MIND: You risk losing money on shipping costs. Although the website says shipping is “free,” the reality is that you’re reimbursed once your item sells via a credit for purchases on the Real Real.
YOUR UNSOLD CLOTHING: If you want your unsold pieces back after the consignment period ends, you absorb shipping costs for the return.
ONLINE CONSIGNMENT STORE #2: E-DROP OFF
POTENTIAL MONEY: 60 percent of selling price goes to you, 40 percent goes to eDrop-Off.
THEIR EBAY SALES: 72,052 sales at time of publish.
CONSIGNMENT PERIOD: 45 days
WHAT YOU DO: Visit the eDrop-Off website to fill out their online form with your contact information and description of the designer pieces you’d like to consign. They take clothing, shoes, jewelry, accessories and … modern-styled vintage!
THE PERK: Recently featured on VH1′s “House of Consignment” and the site averages 90,000 pageviews a day. The more eyeballs that see your piece, the better chance it has of selling for top dollar.
Also, eDrop-Off will schedule a complimentary (free shipping!) UPS pick-up at your home.
KEEP IN MIND: Your pieces need to be top designer and top trend. Think Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Burberry, Prada and Gucci or contemporary brands Theory, Tory Burch, Vince, Elizabeth & James and Alexander Wang.
YOUR UNSOLD CLOTHING: According to eDrop-Off, rarely does an item “go unsold,” since they have a 98 percent sell rate.
ONLINE CONSIGNMENT STORE #3: RECYCLE YOUR FASHIONS
POTENTIAL MONEY: 50 percent of selling price goes to you if the item is sold by Recycle Your Fashions for $499 or less. If sold for over $500, you receive 60 percent of the selling price.
THEIR EBAY SALES: 4,232 sales at time of publish.
CONSIGNMENT PERIOD: 90 days
WHAT YOU DO: Fill out their handy online contact and garment description form. They’ll contact you with their list of approved items for consigning with them.
THE PERK: You have to drop your own box off at the post office, but Recycle Your Fashions absorbs shipping cost by emailing you a pre-paid shipping label. Plus, brands accepted include names most women have in their closets right now (like Ann Taylor & J.Crew) and the site touts selling great vintage pieces, too.
KEEP IN MIND: You have to provide your own boxes to ship your clothing to them.
YOUR UNSOLD CLOTHING: Either the items are donated to a local thrift store or you choose to pay for return shipping back to you. The item can also be listed at a starting bid of $9.99, and if sold you will receive half the selling price minus the eBay fees.
ONLINE CONSIGNMENT STORE #4: LINDA’S STUFF
POTENTIAL MONEY: If Linda’s Stuff sells your item for under $1,000, you get 62 percent of selling price. If sold for over $1,000, you get 75 percent.
THEIR EBAY SALES: 270, 933 sales at time of publish.
CONSIGNMENT PERIOD: 90 days
WHAT YOU DO: No online forms here. Call Linda herself at 1-866-68-54632 to get the scoop on what brands she’s looking for and if you’ve got what she wants!
THE PERK: Out of the five on this list, Linda’s Stuff offers the highest percentage of profits to the consigner! Plus, on top of free UPS pick-up and shipping of your items, regular sellers with Linda’s can earn gift cards to brands like Tory Burch, Gucci and Coach.
KEEP IN MIND: Linda’s designer names list is quite expansive and even includes a few contemporary brands like Puma, Zara and J. Brand. Oh, and she sells vintage!
YOUR UNSOLD CLOTHING: No information listed.
ONLINE CONSIGNMENT STORE #5: THREADFLIP
POTENTIAL MONEY: Unknown, because Threadflip’s White Glove consignment service is brand new, so they aren’t advertising what the percentage split is yet.
THEIR SALES: Unknown, since the consignment program is still in “pilot” mode.
CONSIGNMENT PERIOD: Unknown.
WHAT YOU DO: Give them your email for an application form to be sent to you, and then wait and see if your goods are chosen.
THE PERK: Threadflip sends you a box and a pre-paid shipping label, but you have to drop it off at the post office yourself.
KEEP IN MIND: It’s currently in “pilot” stage, so Threadflip may or may not accept you to participate. Plus, they may or may not do a good job selling your clothing — this is a wild card inclusion that we’ll just have to watch and see!
YOUR UNSOLD CLOTHING: No information listed.
POTENTIAL MONEY: 60 percent of selling price goes to you, 40 percent goes to The Real Real.

 | Exhibition @ ArtsWestchester: Pushing the Line: Drawing in An Age of Anxiety Opening reception: Thurs, Oct 24, 6-8:30pm. On view: Oct 25 – Nov 30, 2013. Gallery hours Tues-Sat 12-5pm. Without a ruler, it’s impossible to draw a straight line without wandering off course. The 12 exhibiting artists in Pushing the Line: Drawing in an Age of Anxiety, curated by Neil Watson and on view at ArtsWestchester October 24 - November 30, 2013, aren’t afraid of an imperfect line. They embrace the expressiveness, individuality, and potential of drawing and unhinge our expectations of the medium. Ink, pencil, pastel, heat plates, mud, video, and tape are among the variety of materials on display, with works ranging in size and style from intimate representational pieces to large scale abstractions. Humorous vignettes about the neuroses and angst of modern living by iconic New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast, illustrations by award-winning artist Peter Sis (the artist behind the famous Amadeus film poster), and much more will “push the line” in ArtsW’s Peckham and Shenkman galleries.
