What Labels do we accept?
The following is a list of labels. Acceptable and Not Acceptable.
This list is by no means all inclusive. We do not accept discount labels or many less expensive labels. If you have a question about if we accept what you have, call and ask.
The main reason that we turn away clothes is that they are dated. We do not want your OLD clothes that you wouldn't wear. We DO NOT want your clothes that you couldn't sell in a garage sale! We want your recent clothes that you want to replace with new clothes.
We do not want you to bring us clothes that you want to donate just to see if we might take something. If you wouldn't wear it, we don't want it. Our time is valuable and so is yours. If you think it should be donated, it should.
We do not want clothes in bags. We do not want clothes that haven't been washed, ironed or dry cleaned. No matter how nice it is, we will not take it if it is dirty. Look over every piece that you bring in. We will look it over from top to bottom. Seriously. If it is missing buttons, has a hem coming out, broken zipper, snags, etc. we do not want it.

REMINDER TO CONSIGNORS
Please take the time to inspect each item before you bring it in. We go through hundreds of pieces of clothing a week and know that the garage sale rejects & dated items do not fit our store. We have limited space. We require items to be clean, pressed and on hangers. Clothing in bags usually is wrinkled and requires us to steam,hang,before we can check them,so please hang them, we do return all hangers. Bring your best items for your first appointment. It allows us to get a feel for your clothes and you to see what we are looking for. With the cool weather, get into your closet, dry clean those sweaters and call Encore for an appointment! This is our busiest time of year so we may be booking out a week or two. 952-944-9290
