Tagging your items
ONLINE BARCODE TAGS
- The online system is easy, fast, and helps protect your items!
- Go
to our consignor site, register for the upcoming sale (if you have
not already done so)
- Login and enter items
- You may enter as many items as you wish and print when desired.
They system will remember what you have printed. (you have the option
to print items not previously printed or reprint an item(s) if needed.)
- Tags will print with barcodes and the system will print 8 tags
per page.
- You must print in black ink on white or light colored
cardstock so the barcode will scan correctly! (no regular
copy paper)
- If you check the discount box, you are indicating that your item
can be sold for half price on half-price days. Leaving the discount
box unchecked means that you do not want your item to be sold for
half price on half-price days. The system keeps track of this information
and if your item is sold at half-price, you will see this in your
reconciliation report at the end of the sale.
- If you check the donate box, the item, if not sold by the end
of the sale, will be donated. If you leave the box unchecked, the
item, if still remaining at the end of the sale, will not be donated.
- As you enter each item, your list of items will show below the
entry form. If you leave the screen or are timed out of the system
(the system times you out after 10 minutes of inactivity) your items
are still in the inventory database. You can access this
from the Manage Inventory screen which you may use to print items
as needed.
- You do not have to enter items and print during the same session online.
You can print or reprint at ANY time. This is important to note. If
your printer jams or you need to reprint for any reason, please know
that your items are NOT lost. You DO NOT have to re-enter these items.
The system will assume the items printed, so the sort feature in the
system has the items listed as "printed" but you can sort
for all items, printed or not printed.
- The system will generate an online list for you to view items
consigned (Manage Inventory Report); items sold (Settlement Report
- which is updated each morning); and items sold, unsold, and donated
(Reconciliation Report - which is updated at the end of the sale)
- Transferring Items: Recheck your items to make sure everything is correct and it is seasonally appropriate. A tag CANNOT be manually altered. If you make changes including price, size, or description a new tag must be printed! You can transfer the item and then edit the information after it has been transferred.

2. Select the sale where your items are located. (top left drop-down arrow)

Helpful hints:
- Make sure you have enough ink in cartridge so that the lines do
not fade.
- DO NOT TAPE OVER BARCODE on the tag!! Taping over the barcode
will interfere with scanning and your items may not record correctly.
- We will not sell an item with a missing tag.
Therefore, for extra SECURITY and to help prevent tag from getting lost,
you may want to place a piece of packing tape (scotch tape does
not work) over the safety pin or tagging gun tab on tag. Again,
do not tape over the barcode, just over the safety pin so tag cannot
be removed easily.
- Also, on extra valuable garments, you may want to consider placing
a piece of masking tape with your consignor number on the inside
of the garment in case tag is lost.
- GOOD DESCRIPTIONS on your tags are very important! Be specific
in the description field - this helps us find your item if the tag
falls off and prevents tag switching.
- For the protection of your items, do NOT make changes or corrections to your tags once they are completed and dropped-off at the sale. What is printed on the
tag is the amount for which it will sell. If you make changes after drop-off, the online inventory will not match the amount for which your item sells and will skew your inventory reporting.
What is on the printed tag is the information that is used to scan the tag at the register. We are unable to sell an item if the tag has been changed or altered.
