When do I have to fill the form out by? We take submissions up to the Wednesday before the flea market. It is first come first served, so if you're coming in at the last minute, your stuff will go up as space is available How do I get paid? We will tell you how much you sold on Monday after the flea market. You can then select whether you want a check or store credit. If you select store credit, we take 10% of your total. If you select cash, we take 20% of your total sales. What is the deadline for picking our stuff up? March 31 What is this barcodes nonsense? We keep track of how much you've sold with barcodes. When you sign up, you get 80 free bar codes with your number coded. If you'd like, we can also code prices into the bar code. Please put bar codes on your items so we know it is yours. We can also bar code your items for you at twenty five cents per item. Then, if your bar codes don't have prices, please write the price of the item within vicinity of the bar code. Do not cover the barcode with the price or other writing. What is the ultimate procrastinator special? Dump your stuff on our doorstep with your name and phone number before March 11. We will price and barcode your stuff to maximize your profit (and ours). We charge a quarter per item for this service. What do you do about "shrink"? We tolerate theft from 1% of the population in order to make our store as hospitable as possible for the other 99%. We ask that you do too. When will I get my labels? We will start printing labels on March 1. If you need them earlier, just call the store and ask for Vivian or Mort. If you sign up after March 1, we will run labels every Thursday so you can pick them up on the first Friday after you sign up. How do I know if you'll mail me the labels or not? We will charge you $1.00 and mail you the labels if you've provided us an address. If not, we'll hold the labels for you to pick them up. I filled out the form and haven't heard from you in a while? What's going on? We usually print labels and mail items in anticipation that you'll ultimately participate in our flea market. We recoup this up front cost 99% of the time. However, things don't always go as planned and people can't make the flea market. That's fine, things happen. Sometimes people inexplicably 'disappear' after requesting labels. If you asked for labels the previous year but didn't follow through, you will need to come to the store to ask for your labels in person. |
