Creating Tags

Through your consignor account, you’ll create "barcode label/tag orders",
hand-written tags or non-barcoded tags from previous sales will be accepted this sale,

but for future sales consignors will receive a lower percentage on their sold items.  

Watch a tutorial here to see how to create tags in the new system. Once tags are printed you can
hand-write a description on the tag to assist with uniting the tag to the item in case of lost tags.

• Always print tags on cardstock or heavyweight paper preferred. 

• Tags must be securely attached—items get handled frequently, and if a tag without a specific
  description falls off, we will be unable to sell it.

• Items will be rejected during inspection if they are not tagged or packaged properly. 
  NOTE: Hand written tags or printed tags from previous sales without a barcode will be accepted for THIS SALE. 

• Keep reading for item-specific tagging methods and requirements!
