Consigners have two choices for tagging items for the sale. Choose from SIMPLE TAGS which you fill in by hand, or generate your tags using the MyConsignmentManager ONLINE TAGGING SYSTEM.

 

 

 

Tagging Notes

Please use CARDSTOCK PAPER for tags. (This is the thickness of an index card, and can be found at office supply stores, Target, Walmart, Michael's, etc. Sometimes it comes only in a multi-color pack. If you buy one and have paper in other colors, feel free to bring it to the sale and we will trade it for paper in your color.) If you use other paper i.e., construction, regular printing paper, etc the tag may detach from your items and be lost. Office supply stores and Kinkos sell cardstock in packages and individual sheets.

Print tags on colored cardstock if you wish to pick up unsold items at the end of the sale. Which color cardstock you use is based on the beginning character of your seller number (letter or number). Any items printed on white will be donated, and will not get sorted for pick-up.

4 character Seller number begins with:	Print tags on this color:
Letter A - C or Number 1	Green
Letter D - G or Number 2	Pink
H - K or Number 3	Red
L - Q or Number 4	Blue
R - S or Number 5	Yellow
T - Z or Number 6	Orange

Print tags on white cardstock if you wish to have unsold items donated to charity.

Be sure to indicate whether your items should be marked down for the 1/2 price sale by circling 'yes' or 'no' in the space provided (or by checking the box in the online inventory)

Please use numeric sizing (0-3m, 3T, 6x) not S-M-L for children's clothing.

 

Attaching tags:

Punch a hole in the tag -be sure not to punch a hole through any of the information!

Use a zip tie (cable tie) to attach the tag to the item. Use the collar tag, belt loop, button hole, etc. If there is no place to attach a zip-tie, use a safety pin as a last resort, but please try to use a zip-tie if possible. Pins are harder to remove and may leave holes in your garments. NO STICK PINS - OUCH!

Make sure the tag is visable from the front of the item

Please point hangers to the left as shown


Shoes should be zip-tied together if possible, or placed in a plastic bag with the tag attached to the shoes

Any loose parts should be put in bags and attached securley to the item they go with. Sealing bags with packing tape is a good idea.

Please try not to put tape over barcodes. If there is tape on the barcode, the scanner cannot read it.

GUIDELINES FOR PRINTING TAGS

Please use CARDSTOCK PAPER for tags. (This is the thickness of an index card, and can be found at all office supply stores or from us at the sale) If you use other paper i.e., construction, regular printing paper, etc the tag may detach from your items and be lost.

If you use the online inventory & tagging system, please don't change prices or discount information on your tags with a pen once you have printed them. These tags will be scanned, and only the original printed information will be recognized. To make changes, you must use the edit feature or create a new tag.
If the online tagging system asks you for a print code, please find it here

Remember to use WHITE CARDSTOCK for your tags if you wish to donate unsold items after the sale, and YOUR COLOR cardstock if you wish to pick up unsold items.

Printer:

• Please use an inkjet or laser printer with a normal (not fine) print setting. Faded barcodes or those that are too dark may not work because the lines bleed into each other. The barcode needs to appear crisp and clear.

• Set your printer to maximum print area (no margins), so it doesn't cut off the bottom of the page.

• Be sure to print one page of tags first to make sure they print correctly, before printing all of your tags (seems obvious, but we forget almost every time!)

• If you prefer, you can print your tags on regular thin copy paper and then take them to the office supply store where they can copy your tags on cardstock. OR, you can save your tags and take / email the file to a copy center to be printed.
