We rely on consignors to help us fill our racks so we can continue to provide a rotating selection of curated, sustainable fashion. So how does consignment work? Here’s a little bit about what we look for, brands we love and how our process works.
What we look for
Contemporary
We look for clothing, shoes, and accessories purchased new within the last 2-3 years and in new or like new condition. We are always on the look-out for small-batch clothing brands, and natural fabrics like linen, silk, organic cotton, hemp, cashmere, and wool.
Vintage
We accept some on-trend vintage and handmade items, especially vintage dresses, tops, denim and leather bags.
Condition
We only accept items free of stains, pet hair, rips and tears, and other damage. Please launder, lint-roll, and empty pockets before you bring your items in. Please bring your items folded and stored in paper bags or totes.
Brands we love
We fill our racks with products from retailers like Everlane, Not Perfect Linen, Reformation, Jungmaven, ARQ, Back Beat Co., Diarte, First Rite, Ace & Jig, Elizabeth Suzann, Ali Golden, Ilana Kohn, Doen, Sezane, Emerson Fry, Rachel Comey, Jessie Kamm, Christy Dawn, Fog Linen Work. Isabel Marant Etoile, Ulla Johnson, and many, many more.
We also carry clothing from Madewell, Anthropologie, J.Crew, Artizia, Free People and others, as long as they are in great condition and still trending.
Some of our favorite denim brands include AGOLDE, AMO, Levi's, Vintage Levi's, Boyish, RE/DONE, Mother, 3x1, and others.
Our favorite active wear brands include Outdoor Voices, Girlfriend Collective, Beyond Yoga, Alo, Lululemon, The North Face, Patagonia, Filson and others.
Please note: We steam clothing, and we have very little storage space, so please bring your items folded and stored in paper or cloth bags. We are not able to accept hanging items, loose items, or items stored in suitcases. We do not accept furniture, household goods, or any other non-wearable items of any kind.
Step 1: Make an appointment
Book a consignment drop-off appointment online by clicking the button below.
We will sort and price your items within seven days of dropoff. We do not sort and price items at the time of your appointment.
We accept items seasonally. This generally means: Fall: August-October; Winter: November-January; Spring: February-April; Summer: May-July.
Step 2: Editor sorts, chooses and prices your items
We pick, price and display your items for 60 days. We typically price items between ¼ and ½ of the retail price, depending on condition and desirability.
Due to our small retail space, we have to be extremely selective and cannot take items that are worn, out of season, or outside our 2-3 year window.
Step 3: Check your inbox for an invoice
Editor will email you an invoice with a detailed list of everything we took, what we priced it at, and the expiration date. We send invoices within seven days of drop-off.
If there is anything left for you to pick-up, you can pick up your items within 5 days of the date you received your invoice. All items not picked up will be donated. We donate to Lifelong Thrift and Jubilee Women's Center.
Step 4: Get paid!
As soon as an item sells, consignors earn 50% of Editor’s price in store credit or 40% in cash value. Credit is paid out on request and never expires. You can check the status of your items and your consignor balance, by logging in to your consignment account online . To request payment via Simple Pay Direct Deposit or to have a check mailed, please email us with your preferred method of payment.
Fine print
Items are sold on consignment only. We do not buy items outright or offer cash up front for items.
Consigned items are displayed for 60 days. If an item doesn't sell, we will email you an expiration notice within 7 days of the expiration date. You have 5 days from the expiration email to pick-up expired items before donation. Unclaimed, expired items, as well as the bags and totes they came in, are donated
Items are subject to markdowns of no more than 50% if necessary to sell an item.
Consignors earn 40% in cash value or 50% in store credit of the sale price for every item sold.
There is a 1.5% credit card processing fee on the total sale of each item that is purchased using a credit card.
Editor is not responsible for items damaged while on the sales floor; items lost due to theft; and items damaged or lost due to fire, earthquake or flood.
