passage consignment opens today!

Published Jul. 12, 2008

Do you consign?

I never have ... neither as a shopper nor as a consigner ... mainly because I didn't know about it. But we've got some great friends who are opening a high-end consignment shop today, Passage Consignment Shoppe.

Excitement and expectations are high this morning as we count down to 10 AM and our first customers, several of whom are milling around the parking lot. I suspect they can see the fabulous gray Armani dress and the Kate Spade bags through the window.

So if you're not busy, stop by and say 'hey'. They'll be happy to see you. If you're a consigner, they're accepting fall and winter consignments now. As I said above, consignment is new to my family, but you can bet my 10 year old and my mom (the 60 year old) are checking out the goods at home to see what they can consign. Everybody's got items that stand the passage of time ...

Oh my gosh, I was in Passage Consignment today and what a store....Everyone should go in and see all the stuff for sale....I had no intention of shopping and ended up with 300.00 worth of clothing and household goods...GREAT STORE

OH, ok. SO where Garden Magic use to be! Thanks!!!

The best known landmark would be Snoopy's which is right across the street.

Where on Wake Forest Road is this shop? May try to make that a lunch stop next week. If you could give me a landmark, that would be great!

sounds like they will be overpriced and that is not the way consigment should be, high end garage sale stuff, gotta love it

I live very close to one of these i have never shoped in it but frineds of my ave and get really good stuff fom there thinking about checking it out my self.

This seems to be a nice high-end consignment shop. I think that 40% commission is a little steep, but hey, get what you can. A friend of mine has a consignment shop in Wilson and, if I'm not mistaken, they get 25% commission. Her shop is very nice, also.

As far as donating goes....you can always pick up your items yourself if you want to at the end of your designated time. BUT, if you don't want the bother the consignment shop will donate for you.

You're right, mrkagain. Both the consigner and the shoppe get percentages. I figure if I've got something I'd donate anyway and it's in great shape, then why not try to consign. Plus, if your items don't sell after the time frame, then the shoppe will donate them (and you don't have to bring them back to your house). Check out their consigner info: http://passageconsignment.com/resources/Passage+Consignment+Shoppe+-+Conditions.pdf.

(((((((((((MRK)))))))))) How's that??? LOL MUAH!
