Update your wardrobe & earn some money too!
Consign to us, shop with us, and have fun recycling and evolving your own unique new style.
Clothes Encounter has been a hub of designer consignment for over 30 years. We are a community with a passion for fashion.
When you consign to us, we do all the marketing for you and you will receive 40% of the selling price, of each item that is sold.
Your items will be priced by us, using your inputs. (Try to remember what you paid, if you can).
Your clothes/ items will be in store for a maximum consignment period of 90 days but most items get sold much faster (mostly within 30 days).
Please note, after 30 days, item prices are reduced by 25%. At the end of the 90 day max period, if some items are still unsold, then they are sent to charity. Sometimes we have sales or special events where we mark the items down again.

Conignment is really easy. You have to take just 3 simple steps.
THE 3 STEPS
2. Take an appointment, or just "drop off" without any appointment. (Click to know more)

to leave your clothes at the store without any appointment.
3. Check your account periodically to see how many of your items have been sold. Collect your payment, or buy something new!
That’s It! It’s really simple!
Is it really so easy? Is there any catch?
However we do have some guidelines to keep things fair.
Keep in mind that if we can’t sell your items then neither of us can make any money. We need to work together as a team to maximize the value you get from your relationship with the store.
At Clothes Encounters, we are a seasonally aligned store. That means we only take items in fashion for each season of the year: summer clothes in summer, fall clothes in fall, etc.
Clothes Encounters will manage the display, showing and sale of your items for you. We have an excellent, multilingual sales staff that is very good at matching great clothes and finding the right customers for your items.
Selling your clothes can be a good way to bring in some extra cash, but sometimes we can be very picky about what we take.
We only take high-end fashion clothes and designer brands that are less than two years old, and in perfect condition.
No broken zippers please! It just makes sense that clean, well-pressed clothes with no missing buttons, or broken zippers, have greater hanger appeal. So ensure that all items are in good condition and dry cleaned, or laundered, prior to sale. Avoid cutting off labels! Aside from the obvious, people like to know fabric content and care instructions.
Your items will be displayed in the store for a maximum of 90 days. After that time, if for some reason, your items are still unsold, then you can pick them back, or else they will be donated to a charity.
We encourage you to read the contract for more details. If you have any questions, please feel free to call us at (613) 741 -7887.
