Perfect Inspection List

Are you on the list? This list is all Consignors at the Greater Sacramento Area events that have passed our inspection process and get to SKIP inspection at the next event.  This saves time at drop off so you can quickly put out your items for sale.  You can be on this list too.  Participate in an event with less than 3 items pulled from the sales floor for stains, missing pieces, dirty/worn, holes, missing batteries, paper tags, mini tags, handwritting on tags or cut off stars, etc.  Congratulations to these amazing Consignors for their diligence in making sure all their products are in tip-top condition.
