What exactly is a consignor anyway? A consignor is an individual who sets prices on their own personal children’s items and then brings them to our sale to be sold. After the sale, you will be sent a check for the value of your items that were sold. Each consignor will be assigned a consignor number to keep track of their items during the sale.
Returning Consignors should login to your Rugrats State College account, Rugrats Altoona account, or Just Kids account to register for the upcoming sale and manage your inventory. Please click here for important instructions if you wish to register for multiple sales.

Quality Standards
Rugrats Resale strives to provide the best possible experience for our Shoppers. Part of that experience is ensuring the items available at Rugrats Resale events are held to a high quality standard. Keeping the quality level high not only benefits shoppers, but it ensures you – as a Consignor – see the highest return on the time you spend tagging. Please only list items that you yourself would consider purchasing.

If you would like to receive your payment through PayPal rather than a check (it's much faster!) then please type "PayPal- your email address" in the top line of the address bar in your account, moving your address to the second line.
