Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why do I need an appointment day to bring in my items for consignment?
A: Gracie's can only process items from about 5 people per day. Having a day you can come in helps us to get your items displayed for sale in a timely fashion. And we hope you like knowing what day you can bring in your items - you don't have to be early. So call 262-363-9929 for an appointment.
A: For the 5 people a day, (see Q above) that's about 200 items per day to process, to list properly so that you get credited, price and display! We just can't handle more and we want to be fair to everyone who wants to consign with us.
A: If you choose to donate your unsold items they are given to charity. Gracie's takes unsold items to Love Inc, Purple Heart, and Goodwill. You can pick up a list of unsold items to value for your taxes
A: Come in and walk around the store and find your items. We will print a list of things that have sold and things that haven't. We will help you but you will know your items better than we do as we have hundreds of consigners. If you want, we may agree to keep your items for an extended period of time.
A: Because Gracie's has to pay the rent, heat, lights - the overhead of maintaining and running a consignment shop.
A: Store credit towards a purchase at Gracie's is available anytime after an item sells. You can pick up a check after the 10th of the month after items have sold. For example, payments for items sold in May may be collected at the store after the 10th of June. The usual minimum check is for $10.00 so you can wait for months to collect one larger check if you choose.
