Please Note: We close the back intake area for a deep clean and rearrange every January. Intake will be back open on Monday, February 2nd! Shopping remains open up front all January, only the back closes.
Intake Hours:
Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday 10a-6p
Closed Tuesdays, Thursdays, & Sundays, but the front remains open for shopping!
We can only accept 20 items per week, per consignor. This is usually equal to about a tote or box worth of items.
Notes for your first time visiting us:
Make sure to park in our big side parking lot and come in the back door! Tell our intake liege you are new, and they know what to do from there! Please bring items in a box or tote the first time, not a trash bag.
Contract Preview:
We still have to read it to you when you come in, but here is a review!
Thank you so much for considering consigning with Kaleidoscope Consignment! We would love to work with you and help you make some extra cash.
But first — let’s make sure we’re a good fit for you!
Below you’ll find our Consignor’s Contract. You’ll receive a typed version to sign when you come into the store. We will still read it over with you when you come in. We want to make sure everyone understands and is on the same page.

The biggest thing to note: Items will be in the store for 28 days, unless it’s a holiday item. Items that do not sell will be given to charity (with the exception of items priced over $100, or a designer item like a Kate Spade purse, for example). This means you will not be able to come back and pick up your items after they have been dropped off, unless it is priced at over $100, or a designer item.
If we erroneously took a clothing item that has a stain, tear, or blemish — the item will automatically be donated. If it is a name brand item, we will call the consignor to pick up. Otherwise, the item will be donated.
The account holder must be present to consign new items. You are not allowed to bring in other consigner’s items to consign. You are allowed to add an additional person onto your account. We will NOT allow anyone but those listed to use the account or cash out. This is for your safety!
Our Charities: We work with several charities, including (but not limited to): local school clothing and backpack programs, no-kill animal shelters, and local church programs.
The second biggest thing to note: Our intake specialists will check all items brought in to Kaleidoscope Consignment. We will only accept clean items. Any items deemed to be a “no, thank you” will be handed back to you before you leave. “No, thank you” items could consist of those out of style, out of season, faded, torn, dirty, broken, covered in pet hair, lower end brands, or items which have an odor. This one is mainly for our smokers. If you smoke, that is 100% fine with us, but please don’t do so on the way to the store with your items in the car, as it usually makes the items smell like the smoke.
Please do not bring items in trash bags. This is for our safety. We have reached into bags and found … undesirable things. We need to be able to SEE what’s inside, so we usually recommend a plastic tote or cardboard box. Any items that require batteries or light bulbs must have working batteries or light bulbs in them.
While staff is looking through your items, please go into the shop and look around! Please don’t stand there and stare at us and make us nervous! 🙂
Intake is not a debate. Please be kind! We all want this store, and your consignor account, to be a success!
Consignment Split: Everything will be split 40% to you, 60% to Kaleidoscope.
Store Balance: If you come into the store to check your store balance, you must show ID. We cannot give consignor balance over the phone, email, or Facebook. This is also for your safety.
You may come collect money any time, once a day, in the form of store credit, cash, or check. We only pay out up to $60 in cash because we keep a limited amount in the drawer. You are welcome to collect any amount over $60 with a check. We will only pay out a certain amount per week. Please see in person contract for more information on maximum weekly payout. We are not a bank, and do not want to be treated like one. This is why we set the limit.
You may use your store credit as many times a day as you’d like. If you use your earnings as store credit, you’ll also earn an extra 10% discount on your purchase (excluding on Dollar Day, where there is no additional discount).
Incidentals: Kaleidoscope Consignment will not be held responsible for any items in case of theft, missing tags, natural disaster, breakage, etc.
Your items will be subjected to periodic sales, coupons, and discounts. We use many forms of advertising, especially Facebook. We might also list items on eBay. If this is done, you will receive 30% of what the item sold for, minus the shipping cost and eBay fees. Your payout for eBay will be 7 days after the item has been delivered to their home (this is due to their return policy). Kaleidoscope Consignment has the sole right to feature your merchandise in any/all forms of advertising and online sales websites.
Our consignors are also our best customers. Here are some shopping rules. Everything is sold in “as-is” condition. All sales are final.
