What is a consignment store?
Consignment clothing stores specialize in selling clothes given to them by people like you, who may have a few (dozens) of clothes just sitting in their wardrobe. Maybe they were too small, too big, mistakenly bought or never even worn. Whichever is the case, we will be more than happy to help you monetize your unwanted clothes.
Do you buy clothes?
No. We take over your unwanted clothing and then sell them on consignment.
What type of clothes do you carry?
All clothing must be good quality pre-owned or new designer labels. We carry:

Accessories: purses, shoes, jewellery
We do not carry children’s clothing.

On which days can I submit clothes?
We accept clothes from 10 am to 5:15 pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday ONLY. No consigning is done during evening hours.
How do I set the price?
A good guideline is 25%-50%of the current retail selling price.If you are not surewhat your items will be priced at, our highly trained consignors can give you an approximate idea. Please note that due to how busy our consignment department is, we cannot give you a list of prices at the time of consignment. Once your order is processed you can visit the store and we can provide you with an itemized list.
How does the consignment process work?
Step 1: A free account is opened for you in our system when you present the clothes for the first time. We require a photo ID and a phone number.
Step 2: We keep and merchandise your items for 60 days.
Step 3: If your clothes sell, you receive 45% of the selling price. If it does not sell, we donate your items to charity.
Step 4: You have an additional 30 days to pick up your money in cash (if under $100) or as a cheque (if more than $100). Please note that cheques cannot be issued ahead of time for pickup. Your cheque may be mailed for an administration fee of $ 5.
What if I change my mind in the meantime?
Please be aware that we have a very quick turn over of merchandise at Extoggery, please be sure you are willing to part with your items when you bring them in. Once the item has sold, it cannot be returned to you. For any unsold items, you may pick them up at any time within the 60 day consignment. Please note that unclaimed items are automatically donated to charity after the 60 day consignment period. Once they are sent they cannot be returned to you
Can I check my account to see if anything has sold?
Of course! Call or visit the store any time within 60 days of your consignment for an update on your account.
How do I know if the 60 (or 90 days) is over?
The 60 day period starts on the day we process your items. We also provide you with a receipt at the time of consignment outlining your expiry dates. If you are still not sure, you may call our store at any time during store hours to check the status of your account. Please note that Extoggery does NOT call you in regards to your expiry date or amounts owing. All your information and credits are removed from our system after 90 days.
What if I cannot pick up my payment?
If you are busy most of the time, we recommend you to add a family member’s name to your account so that they can pick up a payment or reclaimed item on your behalf.This can be done in person or by email (extoggery@gmail.com). Please confirm your account number, name and mailing address in the email. A confirmation email will be sent once your account has been updated. For security reasons, Extoggery is NOT able to give payouts to anyone who is not added to your account.
