Rare, vintage, or highly sought-after pieces may be priced differently.

CONSIGNOR PAYOUT
Your percentage is based on the item's ticket price:
$5–$14.99 — 30%
$15–$24.99 — 35%
$25–$49.99 — 40%
$50+ — 50%
CONSIGNMENT PERIOD
Items are consigned for 90 days.
At the end of the 90-day period, you may choose to have your remaining unsold items returned to you.
You will be given a list of your remaining items and can come into the store to collect them.
If you do not choose to pick up your unsold items, they will be donated after the consignment period ends.
GETTING PAID
Payouts must be picked up in store.
Balances under $100 may be picked up in cash anytime during regular business hours.
For balances of $100 or more, arrangements must be made ahead of time by emailing victoria@wear-forward.com.
Consignor balances remain available for one year. After one year, unclaimed balances expire.
BEFORE YOU DROP OFF
Go through your items and choose your 15 best pieces.
We are looking for quality over quantity: pieces that are in great condition, feel current, and are worth putting back into someone else's closet.
WANT STORE CREDIT INSTEAD?
If you’d rather swap your clothes for something new-to-you instead of building a consignment balance, you can choose store credit upfront.
HOW IT WORKS
Bring your items in during our regular drop-off days:
Thursday, Friday + Saturday
The same 15-item limit and acceptance guidelines apply.
We’ll go through your items, decide what we can accept, and price them just like we would for consignment.
Instead of putting those items on your consignment account, Daydreamers will buy them from you for 40% of the tag price in store credit upfront.
Example:
If we price your item at $25, you receive $10 in Daydreamers store credit.
If we price your item at $50, you receive $20 in Daydreamers store credit.
You get your credit right away with no waiting for the item to sell.
STORE CREDIT VS. CONSIGNMENT
Choose store credit if:
You want to trade in your clothes and immediately have money to spend at Daydreamers.
Choose consignment if:
You’d rather wait for your items to sell and earn your consignor percentage based on the final ticket price.
Once you choose store credit for an item, the sale to Daydreamers is final. The item belongs to the store whether or not it eventually sells.
