Q
– How often do you have your sales?
A – We have twice yearly sales – one in early Spring for Spring/Summer
items and one right before school starts for Fall/Winter items.
Q
– Where is your sale located?
We are thrilled with our location! It is in a high traffic and high visibility Suwanee Crossroads shopping center right off Lawrenceville Suwanee Rd and Satellite Blvd. It is in the Walmart center next to Cici's Pizza. The address is 3255 Lawrenceville Suwanee Rd Ste S Suwanee, GA. 30024
Q
– Are children allowed at the sale?
A – Yes! We understand that for many of us, our children are with us 24/7!
We ask that you keep control of them once inside the sale for their safety.
At the volunteer sale and preseller sale, we will not allow children. Umbrella
strollers are recommended as space is limited and slings/front carriers are
a great idea for hands-free shopping!
Q
– What types of payment do you accept?
A – We accept cash, MasterCard, AMEX & VISA . Credit cards will have a
3% convenience fee.
Q
– What are your Savvy Sister shopping tips?
A – 1. Volunteer so you can be one of the first to shop!
2. Bring a laundry basket or bin *think Rubbermaid* for loading all those great
deals in!
3. Bring your child’s measurements with you. Our items are non-refundable
so you will want to make sure you measure their inseam, feet, arms, etc…to
get the best fit possible.
4. Take inventory of each child’s needs so you will have your must-have
list ready. Of course all the extra finds are what makes consignment shopping
so much fun!
Q
– I am not able to consign or volunteer, but I want to shop before the
“Public” sale on Thursday. What do you suggest?
A – At the end of our Pre-sale on Wednesday we are offering an early
Public sale to begin. For $5.00 PER person you can shop before our Public sale
officially starts!
Q
– Is there a minimum number of items?
A – 15 items is the minimum number of accepted items.
Q
– Are you a store?
A – No, we are a seasonal children’s consignment sale. Each year,
we hold two sales – one for Spring/Summer merchandise held in the early
Spring and one for Fall/Winter merchandise held shortly after school starts.
Q
– Can I tell my friends about the sale? Do you have a Referral Program?
A – Absolutely! We are working hard to make this an awesome sale. Please
also join our 3 Savvy Sisters fan page on Facebook and follow us on Twitter
@3savvysisters. You will be “invited” to the upcoming sale and please
RSVP yes that you will come and share it with your friends on FB and Twitter.
Refer 5 new consignors to 3 Savvy Sisters and
receive 3 hours of volunteer credit. Referral must be stated at the time of
their registration.
Q
– How do I price my items?
A – Prices will vary as they are priced by the consignor. We suggest a
good rule of thumb is 25% - 33% of retail. Larger sizes tend to sell at the
higher end and smaller sizes often sell on the lower end of this range. Outfits
sell better than separates. Better presentation also commands a higher price.
While we don’t require clothing items to be pressed, they generally sell
better if they are. All gear must be clean, in good working order and have all
parts present.
Q
– How do I get the sale items to you?
A – We offer convenient day and evening drop-off appointments on three
different days at the sale location. None of these work for you? We offer an
optional Pick-Up service for an additional fee. Please
contact Tiffani for this appointment as well.
Q
– Do I have to pay the seller fee in advance?
A – No. The seller fee is $10 and is collected out of your sales. This
amount will be deducted from your check at pick up.
Q
– When do I pick up my unsold items?
A – Pick up will be on Sunday, October 10, 2010 from 6:00PM – 7:30PM.
All items remaining after pick-up (7:31PM) become the property of 3 Savvy Sisters
and will be donated to a charity of our choice.
Q
– When can I expect my check?
A – At pick-up, we’ll have it for you unless you prefer it mailed.
If you prefer it to be mailed, you must provide a SASE or $1 additional will
be deducted from your check.
Q
– What if at pick-up I have missing items that were not sold?
A – 3 Savvy Sisters will make every effort to insure the security of the
sale facility after the merchandise has been placed. Consignor AGREES to hold
no claim against 3SS for any damage (including an Act of God or otherwise),
loss, or theft of merchandise during sale.
Q
– How long are your volunteer shifts? Could I split a shift?
A – We provide convenient 3-hour shifts. We will have presale times for 6 and 3 hour volunteers. Unfortunately, we are unable to split shifts. If you don’t think you can volunteer due to childcare issues, try to swap with a friend and then shop the presale together for a girl’s night out! Husbands are also welcome to work volunteer shifts too! Any missed shifts will have a penalty of $25 taken out of your check.
Q
– Can I bring my children with me to my volunteer shift? Do you provide
childcare?
A – No, it would be unsafe to bring children while you work your shift
and at this time we are unable to provide childcare.
