My second season of consigning has come and gone. I was definitely less stressed this time as I had the knowledge and experience from the fall sales to get me through the spring sales. Here is everything I started with (crackers and Diet Pepsi were requested for the volunteers):

According to MyConsignmentManager I started with 162 items, of which 93 sold 69 were returned to me (although when I counted hangers/items I only had 52 items). My 70% commission was $162. For a few hours worth of work I think the return on my investment is worth it, but I understand that some people may not feel the same way. What about you – do you consign? Will you in the future?
