Seller Guidelines & Pricing

Cubby Consignment is designed to feel boutique-clean and curated. These guidelines protect a premium shopping experience for our community.

All items are subject to approval at intake and throughout the selling period.

  • Clean, freshly laundered, wrinkle-free
  • Like-new or excellent condition
Select accessories & hard goods (space-limited)
  • Sleep sacks & swaddles
  • Carriers (brand/condition dependent)
  • Boutique accessories
  • Curated toys (case-by-case)

Condition standards

To maintain a premium experience, all items must be:

  • Clean & odor-free (no smoke, perfume, mildew, pets)
  • Free of stains, holes, tears
  • Free of heavy wear (pilling, fading, stretched elastic)

Quick check: If you wouldn’t gift it to a friend, it likely won’t sell well in Cubby Consignment.

Items we do not accept

  • Items with stains, holes, damage, or heavy wear
  • Recalled items
  • Used feeding items (bottles, nipples, pacifiers)

  • Use approved hangers and neat folding
  • Avoid overfilling racks or shelves
  • Keep your booth organized throughout your term

Our team may adjust placement or spacing to maintain store standards.

Pricing guidance

Sellers set their own prices. For best results, pricing should reflect brand, condition, and resale demand.

Premium brands
Typically price around 40–60% of retail.

Like-new or new-with-tags may be slightly higher within range.
Select brands
Typically price around 25–40% of retail.

Competitive pricing helps items move within 2–3 weeks.

Items priced close to current retail typically stall.

Markdowns & price drops

Markdowns keep inventory fresh and support sell-through.

  • Weeks 1–2: Full price
  • Week 3: 10–20% markdown (recommended)
  • Week 4: 25–40% markdown
  • Week 5+: final markdown or removal

You may also choose to remove items instead of discounting.
