Week 24 (Save $24)
It has been time consuming for me to visit and review the popular and least popular consignment stores throughout the GTA, there are so many of them! More and more of these consignment stores are popping up everywhere but are they worth even stopping in?
Every store have their own unique rare treasure of designer brands. The whole concept of consignment is a reseller /boutique taking your pre loved inventory of clothing items off your hands. Reselling the clothing and there is money involved for you after the selling term dates. You can either take the money or use the credit note and spend it at the store.
Consignment stores seems to be the upcoming trend in todays retail market especially in this difficult economy. It makes perfect sense to let someone else enjoy your old favorite pieces and make some money at the same time.
Note: Each and every consignment stores have their own terms regarding garment selection, your split from the sale, cash upfront or not, selling time line, etc.
** Make sure you are familiar with the terms and if you are uncertain, it does not hurt to ask.
Here are my favorite Top picks whether you are buyer or a seller ( I personally enjoy being a buyer )

Consignment store items are usually "One of a Kind", if you find something, and the shoe fits, nab it right away! High end Designer fashion labels for a fraction of the price, why not !
Look for my future reviews on other Consignment Store locations in the GTA
