Consignment

The world has certainly changed A LOT in the last 3 years and as a result we have to change as well.  Sprout Collection is excited to announce that we are branching out into the world of consignment!  Not to worry, rental continues to be a huge part of our business and will not be going anywhere, but consignment will now be an option as well!  We're asking our loyal customers (that’s you!) to join us in turning the #1 clothing rental subscription service in Canada (that's us!) into the #1 consignment service as well!  With that said, if you have any clothing or luxury shoes, bags, or accessories that you feel would be great for consignment, we want to hear from you! 

The Way It Works

  1. Fill out this form letting us know what clothing items you would like to consign.  We will also be accepting luxury shoes, bags, and accessories.  Please ensure to add photos of each item.
  2. The Sprout Team will decide which pieces we will accept.  Upon acceptance you can drop the items off at our warehouse or ship them to us!
  3. Once we have properly priced your item(s) you will receive a consignment contract to sign.  Once signed you will select your payout method from one of two options:  
    1. Sprout will purchase your item outright for 25% of our suggested sales price, which will be paid out as a credit on your Sprout account.
      For example:  If we price an item at $100 you would receive $25 of credit applied to your Sprout account immediately.
      OR
    2. You will receive a 50/50 split of our retail price paid out by cheque or e-transfer.  For the first 29 days your item(s) will be listed at our retail price.  On the 30th day of listing the price of the item will be reduced by 25%.  On the 60th day of listing your item will be reduced another 25%.  After 90 days your item will be removed from our website.

For example:  If we price an item at $100 the payout would be:

Please note there will be a $50 processing fee for any item(s) withdrawn after item(s) have already been processed for sale before the 90 day window passes.

If your items have not sold after the allotted time period you may pick them up (or ask for us to ship them back to you for a charge) within a week of your consignment period ending, otherwise they will be considered donations to Sprout.

Preparing Your Items for Consignment

  • All gently-worn articles of clothing must be freshly laundered or dry-cleaned. Items should be wrinkle-free and either hung on hangers (preferably in garment bags) or neatly folded.
  • If applicable please leave any dry-cleaning tags on.
  • Clothing & apparel must be free of any stains, odours, discolouring, and noticeable signs of wear.  Be sure to thoroughly examine your clothing.  Common reasons we must refuse items are due to deodorant stains, tiny holes, unraveling seams, rips, tears, runs, pulls, or missing buttons.
  • Clothing labels must be securely attached to each piece.
  • We only accept items that are in pristine condition. Please make sure you check that your garments have no missing buttons, that all zippers work, that no hems are coming undone, that there are no holes in pockets, etc. We will also be examining your clothes for these possible problems.
  • Leave price tags on unworn items. We may be able to sell them for you at a higher price point.
  • Please use your discretion in this matter as we want to ensure our same standards for rental items are being followed for our consignment items to keep everyone in the Sprout community happy.
