Program Overview:
• Consignors earn 35% of their sold items.
• Valet Consignor & Tagger will be paid directly by JBF Houston Northeast after the sale. Only UPFRONT costs includes $25 Valet Tagging Registration Fee.
• All Tagging Supplies (EXCEPT batteries) are provided by the Valet Tagger/JBF Houston Northeast. If items are left that require batteries, JBF has my permission to add batteries to the item so that it can be sold. I further understand that I will be charged a fee of $1.00 per battery for sizes AA and AAA and $2.00 per battery for sizes C and D.
• Valet Taggers are responsible for pricing.
• ALL items will be required to go half price.
• Consignors will have a $25 Valet Consignor/Supply Fee. The consignor fee covers up to 200 items. Items over 200 will result in an additional $5 per 50 items (rounded up). The additional consignor fees will be deducted from the consignor check if applicable. Consignors will have 2 options:
- DONATE all unsold items
- PICK-UP all unsold items at Consignor pick-up after the sale
This choice must be made BEFORE the Valet Tagger accepts the items to tag. Valet Taggers will not pick-up Valet tagged items after the sale. Anything not picked up by the Consignor will be donated. No exceptions.
• The Valet Tagger will be paid their percentage on all items tagged under the Valet consignor number they are provided. Consignors who wish to tag some of their own items will need to utilize their assigned consignor number.
• Once the sale is over, the valet tagging agreement and percentage split is over. All items left in the valet tagging account are eligible for the consignor to make 60% at future sales (with some exceptions).
EXCEPTION:
If the consignor participates in JBF Houston Northeast Valet Tagging again, the same valet tagging account will be used. All items still remaining in the Valet Tagging account from before will become part of the new Valet Tagging sale percentage split. The Consignor will be responsible to drop-off previously tagged items from this Valet Tag account to the Tagger along with their current items needing to be tagged. The Valet Tagger will bring these items with the items they tag and put them out at the sale. (Consignors will not be charged on items previously tagged in the Valet account).
PROCESS IN DETAIL:
1. Clean out your closets and play rooms and find all of those new or gently used items you’d like to sell. Make sure all items are in working order and free of stains, odors(smoke), pet hair, tears, etc.
2. Register with https://jbfsale.com/myjbfprofile/cpLogin.jsp and once logged in, click SIGN-UP next to the listing for Houston Northeast to participate in the current Fall sales event.
3. Once you have completed this registration, you will be matched with one of our Valet Taggers. Once matched, please plan to cc: Amanda Henery ([email protected]) on all emails regarding Valet Tagging, including those between you and the Tagger.
4. Once you have been in contact with your Valet Tagger, schedule a drop-off time with her. Drop off can take place at the Valet Tagger’s home, or another mutually agreed upon location.
5. Items will be inspected, prepped, and tagged by your Valet Tagger. Rejected items due to stains, odor(smoke), dirt/grime, rips/tears, excessive wear or any other defects will be charged as follows:
REJECTED ITEM INSPECTION FEES:
• 0-10 items rejected: $0
• 11-25 items rejected: $5 added fee;
• 26-50 items rejected: $10 added fee.
• More than 50 items rejected will incur a $20 fee and will result in likely termination of the Valet Tagging agreement. These fees will come out of the consignor check at the end of the sale.
REJECTED ITEM RETURN OR DONATE: It is expected that the Valet Consignor will allow Valet Tagger or JBF Houston Northeast to donate or destroy any rejected item. If the Valet Consignor wants a rejected item returned to them, they must make the request BEFORE Consignor Drop-Off. The Consignor must e-mail their request to the Valet Tagger. It will be up to the Consignor to pick up the rejected item(s) at the Valet Tagger’s convenience. Any rejected item not picked up will be destroyed or donated.
6. All items will be entered into the JBF tagging system based on the Valet Tagger’s knowledge and expertise in pricing and JBF price guidelines. Per the Valet Tagging program, ALL items will be marked to go half price.
7. You will be notified when the Valet Tagger has inspected your items and entered the item descriptions/prices into the JBF tagging website. You may NOT change pricing/reduce/donate at this point as the barcodes have been printed for your tags.
8. Your Valet Tagger will hold and bring your items to consignor Drop-Off before the sale begins. Your Valet Tagger will check your Valet Tagging account into the sale and put your valet tagged items out on the sales floor. You will not need to come to Consignor Drop-off unless you are consigning other items from another JBF account.
9. You will be able to log-in to your Valet Tagging account at https://jbfsale.com/myjbfprofile/cpLogin.jsp and monitor your sales throughout the event.
10. If you had chosen to pick-up unsold items, you will need to come to Consignor pick-up at the designated date and time. If you chose to donate all unsold items, you do not have to come to consignor pick-up.
11. Wait for your check to arrive in the mail. Checks will be sent two weeks after the conclusion of the sale. Fees will be taken out of your consignor check if over 200 items + $5 each additional 50 items. Consignors who are valet tagged will earn 35% of their sales.
