Be smart for back to school


Uniquely yours...for less!

Are you one of those parents who is constantly being marketed everyday for back to school? If the answer to the question is "yes", it may be a good idea for you to read our latest blog because despite the emails you receive from many retailers offering discounts off of regular priced merchandise there may be many of you who have never considered buying resale, where the discounts are even deeper and many of the items are new with tags or have never been worn. Not only that, but the items we are talking about are either designer or high quality brands that last.

How is this possible? It's actually very simple. Many of us parents, including those on the team at consignista.com either overbuy or are gifted with items from generous grand parents or other members of the family who cannot resist making that purchase for your children. What happens is that as your children grow at an exponential rate, some of these purchases never get worn. The good news is that you can consign those items with consignista.com, earn money from them when they sell and use those earnings to put towards other resale items at smart prices. On top of that, for every purchase you make with us, you earn rewards points that you can put towards future purchases.

Smart savings with consignista.com
So let's show you an example of a saving you can make when you buy resale. Like the Northface Metroplis Parka Jacket that retails at around $199.00 that consignista.com has listed in excellent condition for $89.00. A cool saving of  $110.00. Now we don't know about you, but that $110.00 saving on just one item can go a long way to buying other items. Like Gap long sleeve graphic Ts that consignista.com has listed at between $5.00-8.00 each. Oh and we always offer free shipping. The savings go on!

So we hope you can see the advantages of using consignista.com as opposed to heading out to the nearest mall for your back to school items. And of course, why not consign those items that were either never worn or are in perfect condition with us to continue to add to our increasing inventory? You never know, back to school could end up costing you zero dollars, with the savings you can make when buying resale, and consigning and earning money from those outgrown items with consignista.com. And the icing on the cake is that it's a green alternative - resale is becoming known as a perfect recycling option.

Now we've kept this blog short and sweet as we know time is precious over the summer. And we don't want to keep you from shopping for your back to school necessities with us now do we!
