HOW TO RECYCLE @
    THE PINK HOUSE
    Consider the Following:

Small businesses such as this are usually run by one person.   We are lucky to have
community members volunteer at  times.  We've worked hard for 14 years to keep
providing this store to the community.  It is the sole source of income for my family.
I have spent much time compiling the Guidelines, so this store runs as efficiently as
possible.  Please consider this before consigning.        

No appointment necessary.

1. CLOTHING PREPARATION   

              All items must come in on hangers,                     
no wrinkles,
freshly laundered,
    starched and ironed,
    or dry-cleaned,
    check inside clothes too!
    Items that are prepared well will sell for more money!
       *Please:
    NO lint, pet fur, dust,
    worn but not laundered,
    attic, moth, or ball smell,
     smoke or food smell,
     etc.  
        
      I strongly advise to make a list of your items.
     Include:  
    Item name
    Designer
    Size
    Color

    *It's your responsibility
    to have a list of what you consigned.

             No wrinkled clothing.
              Each item must be on a hanger and ironed.
                        It's quicker for us to process this way.
                     Ironing lets you see spots that are on your items.

     HINTS
  •   You can fold some items over hangers,
   but they should not be wrinkled.
  •       Dry-Cleaner wire hangers are available for free.
If you want your own hangers back,
you have to switch them when you get here.
  •   If you have pets, dust, etc.,
you might need to cover your items
(with a dry cleaner bag, for example).

    2. JEWELRY PREP
          MUST BE FRESHLY CLEANED!
                 If not, you earn 20% (not 40%),
    of the selling price.  
    (We record on your account
    which items were not clean.)
           
                  b.        Separate Gold, Silver,
              semi precious, & costume in
              separate bags or boxes.

    c.      Label boxes, such as:        
            925, 14k, 10k, G.F, G.P., vintage,
    enamel, hand painted, ruby, saphirre, etc.

           d.   Please write exactly what each item is,
            Example: 15" 14k gold chain,
              ruby stones in sterling band,
                    size 7.           
                -price paid (if known),
                           -place of purchase (if known)

3. PURSE AND SHOE PREP

    top AND bottom,

    We mostly accept leather bags,
    but will take others
    in great condition.

    6.   WHEN YOU ARRIVE
Make sure your items have a
name tag secured to your bundle.

If not, write your name and date
on one of our  3 x 5" cards just inside the door,
and attach to your bundle of clothes.

Please look around the store,
while we go through your items,
or if  there is a line.

7.   Length of CONSIGNMENT PERIOD
The consignment period is
2 months long, and, at the end of that
time, you receive 40% of what the item sold for.

8.   PAYMENT
Come in to the store to get your money.

We love it when you spend your money in the Pink House.
If you prefer cash or check, you need to come in to the store
to at the end of the 2 months to collect your CASH OR CHECK.

Checks are only mailed if you move.  
Send a
SASE to the PINK House.

9.  HOW TO CHECK
YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE
Come in to the store.
It is best if you come in to the store to check your account.  We
usually only have one person here, and cannot always answer the
large amount of phone calls we receive daily.


10.  YOUR STORE CREDIT
You may spend your credit that you have earned in the store at any
time - you do not have to wait for the end of the 2 months to do
that.


11.  ONE YEAR
You have one year to collect your money.


12.  FEES
There is a one-time $5 processing fee to open an account, but you
don't have to give the money up front;  all accounts start (-$5.00).  
As you sell items, your account will go into the positives.

If, after we have received your items, we find at a later date that
the item is damaged in some way, we will donate that item, but   
enter into your account on the computer the reason for donating.  

If your items come in wrinkled, we will steam them out for you, and
you will receive 20%, instead of 40% of the selling price.


13. DONATIONS
When the 2 month period is over, all unsold merchandise is         
donated to charities.

14. PARKING
Parking is to the right of the Pink House, in my 5 pink spaces, or in  
the back of that large lot.  

15.  STATEMENT
Doubletake is not responsible for your lost items.  It is up to the
    consignor to make sure that their batch of items is labelled with a
    name and date, and that you have your own list of items at home.

    Doubletake reserves the right to donate any item at any time
    (except for gowns, furs, vintage and designer items), if we find
    that it does not meet our requirements.  

     *If we have accepted an item, but find later that it is stained, button
    missing, etc, we will record that we have donated the item and the
    reason in the computer.
