Business ProfileforMy Sister's Closet

I took clothes into My Sister's Closet to place on consignment. I told the person checking me in, that I did not authorize the sale of the items without first receiving a price quote. They agreed and I left the items with them. I called three times to obtain my price quote over the course of a few weeks. They always said they would call back but did not do so. I then asked to speak to a manager who then told me all my items had been sold. New and gently used $1,200 to $2,000 shoes had been sold for $25, $40, etc. I told the manager that I had not authorized the items to be sold without a price quote first. She told me she could sell them for whatever she wanted. Interestingly, I have other items that were perhaps originally $75 items and they too are listed for $25. I have since learned that others have had the same experience where they sell high end designer items immediately for pennies on the dollar and it is suspected that people who work in the store are purchasing the high end items and reselling them. I wish I had known this before I left my expensive items with them.
