Yes, no problem. Anyone can bring your items to your drop-off appointment or pick up your unsold items. PLEASE NOTE: If you send someone to pick-up your ‘unsold’ items, please be sure they are aware that they will need to find your unsold clothing on the clothing racks, and your unsold ‘other’ items on the tables. Items will not be sorted out by consignor number. (See: “Avoiding Pick-up Paranoia”) Unsold items not marked to be donated, may be picked up SATURDAY, MARCH 26th, 2015 between 4pm and 6pm.
