• Your consignor number will be the first initial of your last name followed by the last four digits of your home telephone number (e.g. B1234).
• If you are a returning consignor, your consignor number will remain the same,  however you will still need to register your current MyConsignmentManager account with the TotSwap  sale via our partner site, MyConsignmentManager, to print
   your tags.

If you are interested in taking advantage of our volunteer benefits you may  also schedule your shift here. you are welcome to come anytime during our drop-off hours.

 

Once you have registered through our partner site MyConsignmentManager  for our TotSwap sale you may
 begin entering your information to create a tag for each of your items. These tags will be printed out in the end - either as a group, or individually, whichever you prefer. Printing instructions are also included below.

 FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

•  1. Log In with your user name & password
•  2. Click on Enter Items
•  3. Begin Entering Your first item: Your Consignor ID is also your Seller # –  Your ID will equal the first initial of your last name followed by the last 4  digits of your home phone number (unless we notify you of a change).
•  4. Under Consignment select the appropriate sale
•  5. From Size drop down menu select the Size of your item if applicable.  (Numerical only no S, M, L, XL) Maternity items should show S, M, L, or XL.
•  6. Next use the Description space to identify & sell your item! If a tag  becomes separated from an item, we use this description to put the two items  back together, this happens a lot!! You can also use the space to sell your  item. Is it a name brand? If so, list the name brand in this space. If the  item is New or Like New, list that information there too. If an item is marked  one size but wears like another, point that out. For larger items, it may be  beneficial to point out the item’s original or retail price. This may convince  the buyer of the great deal they will be getting.
•  7. Next you may choose to Discount – By clicking here you are indicating that  you want to sell your item for ½ price during the half priced sale on Sunday.
•  8. Now you may choose to Donate – Tell us what items you want to take home  with you after the sale. A “Yes” will indicate that you will NOT be taking  that item back home after the sale, and TotSwap will be donating the item on  your behalf. NOTE: All items must be picked up during our posted pick-up hours  on Sunday or they will become the possession of TotSwap and may be donated  regardless of what is indicated on the tag.
•  9. Now it’s time to select a Price for your item– Minimum price must be $1 and  increase in $1 increments. Bundle items together if individually they cannot  be priced for $1 or more.

•  10. Next, choose a category for your item from the dropdown menu.
•  11. Finally, select Add Item. Now your tag has been saved to your account and  you may continue this process for the remainder of your items.
•  12. This entire process will go very quickly. Once you have pressed "Add Item"  it has been added to your inventory. You can enter some or all of your items  at once, that is up to you. By selecting Manage Inventory you can view and/or  make changes to your tags.
•  13. You may also select Print Tags to print out the required barcoded tag to  attach to your item. You can choose to either print your tags all at once or  you can do a little bit at a time, it's up to you. For most printers, you will need to feed your cardstock into the printer one page at a time. Each sheet will print 8 tags which you will need to cut apart on the lines as indicated on the page.
• 14. Do not make handwritten changes or corrections to your tags. Make a new  tag if you make a mistake or change your mind about a price.
