FAQ of VOLUNTEERING
Do I
have to volunteer in order to consign?
No. You will still
earn your consignor preview sale privileges but earn the minimum of
60% on your sold items. Volunteering a minimum of 4 hours bumps your
percentage to 70%.
What will I receive in exchange for
volunteering my time?
Volunteers
who work 4-hours will earn 70% and shop before consignors. Volunteers who work 8-hours (or two
4-hour shifts) will earn 75% AND shop before the 4-hour volunteers
and the consignors. NEW!
Work 12 hours and shop the sale at the absolute earliest shopping
time - 12:00 pm on Wednesday!
May I volunteer time before the sale?
Yes. We are always looking for help publicizing
the sale, setting up racks, passing out fliers and much more. If you
would like to do something prior to the sale, let us know and we
will give you credit for it. There are a limited number of
opportunities available. Click Here for details.
May I work two 2 smaller shifts instead?
We prefer that you work one 4-hour shift. We will
try and make accommodations
wherever we can. Please let us know if you would prefer a to work
2-two hour shifts instead and we will work with your schedule.
May I bring my children with me during my
shift?
No. It will be too
difficult for you to work and watch the little ones at the same
time.
If you have an extenuating circumstance, please let us know Volunteers
who are nursing small infants may bring their baby (because of
obvious safety concerns, select a shift that we are closed to
the public). NO CHILDREN ALLOWED IF YOU ARE VOLUNTEERING AT ANY
TIME DURING THE PUBLIC SALE.
What days/times are available to
volunteer?
Volunteer shifts begin Monday and continue through
Sunday. You may check out all the volunteer shifts on the Volunteer
page or Click

Do I have to be a consignor to volunteer?
No. You do not
have to be a consignor to volunteer at the sale. We welcome the
help and will reward you with a preview shopping pass (see
Volunteer page or Click Here for
shopping times).
What if I
want to change my shift?
You are allowed to change or cancel your shift up to 7 days before
the sale begins. To change or delete your shift, Click
Here.
What will happen if I do not complete
my scheduled shift OR
cancel my shift 7 days or less before the sale begins?
If you volunteer, we are counting on you to follow through. In the event a volunteer
does not fulfill their obligation, or find a comparable replacement,
the volunteer will not be allowed to participate as a volunteer
again or participate in any future preview sale. Please
understand that these guidelines have been put in to place to
maintain a high quality sale.
