Safety Guidelines

Baby and child safety is WeeUsables’ number one priority. Please carefully read the important information below to ensure the items you choose to consign meet our safety expectations.

  • Please refer to the following websites to be certain your items are not recalled and follow our safety guidelines:
  • When possible, please include owner’s manuals and manufacturer-provided safety info.
  • Be sure packaging for items with small pieces are sealed and contained so young shoppers are not at risk for choking or ingestion hazards while on our sales floor.
  • Please no straight pins of any kind as we do not provide our shoppers with thimbles!

Quality Standards

Most importantly, when considering items to consign, please remember WeeUsables is NOT a yard sale. "Wee" take quality seriously. Also, per the consignor waiver, the following fees may apply:

  • NEW FOR SPRING '25 – $15 – for over 15 items pulled for quality issues and for each additional 15 items

  • We reserve the right to charge 10% of tagged price for items that do not meet our quality expectations and require cleaning by the Quality Team in order to be sold. The fee of 10% of the tagged price will be deducted from the consignor’s earnings. If the item is found to need more than a light cleaning, it will be pulled from the sales floor.
  • NEW FOR FALL '24 – 40% of the selling price – While all sales are final at Weeusables Consignment Events, there are extenuating circumstances in which, based on the sole discretion of Weeusables, a full return and refund is warranted based on a sold product not meeting the consigning guidelines, standards, and what to sell rules. In these instances, Weeusables will be retaining a 40% fee of the original selling price of the returned item. This 40% fee will be deducted from the seller’s consignor earnings that is paid out at the end of the sale.
