***To save you a trip, you're welcome to email montclair@solalucy.com with pictures before bringing consignment! Please take pictures of the front, back, and any spots/damage in bright natural light. We'll let you know if we'd like to take a closer look at the shop.
Please understand that we cannot take more inventory than space allows.
For consideration, bring us no more than:
AS IS condition will not be considered under any circumstances. All items MUST be in new/like new condition, freshly laundered, and neatly folded or presented on hangers. No garbage bags, please.
We are not responsible for lost or stolen items.
What we buy
We buy current and seasonal clothing, shoes, jewelry, and accessories. We enjoy receiving statement pieces, boutique brands, designer labels, and costume or fine jewelry. We accept all sizes and we take select vintage depending on condition and style.
We DO NOT take outdated styles, junior styles, formal dresses, career-wear, maternity, children’s clothing, underwear, pajamas, bathing suits, costumes, or perfume.
We are currently buying for Fall & early Winter
We are looking for sweaters, closed toe shoes/booties, dresses, denim, outerwear & layering tops. Please no sequins or velvet items yet!
Please no traditional workwear & super formal wear as we transitioned away from those pieces.
We take leather purses and athleisure year-round. All athleisure should be new with tags or in "like new" condition.
Note: We're slowing down on taking skinny jeans! Trend reports indicate that bootcut, flared, and wide-leg styles are top sellers. Dresses have also been top sellers this season. We occasionally take trending Y2K styles as well.
We limit intake on brands such as Ann Taylor, Anne Klein, Chico's, GAP, Jcrew, J Jill, Garnet Hill, LOFT, Banana Republic, Calvin Klein, Jones New York, Land's End, Talbots, White House Black Market, Forever 21, H&M, and Old Navy. While basics are great, our customers are usually looking for more unique pieces to coordinate with basics they already own!
Jewelry
We take fine and costume jewelry, although signed fine jewelry sells best. Jewelry that is stamped or marked (designer's name, .925, 14k, etc) are preferred. Most jewelry is not entered with clothing, but is instead entered within one week of consigning to allow time for proper evaluation and pricing. Email montclair@solalucy.com for additional information about jewelry.

E-Commerce
When an item sells online, store credit does not get applied to a consignment account until the item has been successfully received by it's buyer. The shipment can take upwards of two weeks depending on the time of the year! We ask that consigners please be patient with payout for items sold online. We will apply credit as soon as we are able.
If you’d prefer not to have your items listed for sale on our website, please indicate so when you consign.
Client Contract
You receive 40% of the selling price.
We keep your items for TWO months.
After two months, you have the option to pick up unsold items OR donate to Sola Lucy.
You will receive an itemized list with prices within 48 hours of consigning. Be sure to check your spam mail for this list. If you do not receive a list, please call or email us and we’ll resend it.

All items are subject to a standard 30% price reduction after 45 days and then an additional 50% price reduction during the last week of your contract. You always receive 40% of the final selling price. All items are subject to additional seasonal discounts during promotions.
NOTE: You will NOT be notified when items sell during your contract. Check your balance any time by calling, emailing, or chatting with us.
Payment
You have two options: store credit or a payout.
Your credit never expires.
There is a one week delay in receiving credit after an item sells in our brick & mortar store. After one week, the store credit will be applied to your account. Online sales can take upwards of three weeks for credit to be applied.
Store credit can be applied to in-store purchases during check-out. Otherwise you can choose to receive a payout. If the amount is under $10 you will be paid in cash. Anything over $10 is paid in a check.
If you use mobile deposit to deposit a check, please wait 14 days after depositing before you destroy the check, just to make sure that it has been successfully issued to your bank account. If any problems arise after depositing a check, please contact us immediately so we can resolve them.
Note: Store credit cannot be applied to online purchases at this time.
Mailing checks: You must contact us at the end of your contract to request a mailed check. There is a $1.50 processing fee which is removed from your payout. Mailed checks take three business days to process.
Donations
If you’ve chosen to donate, we will not email you at the end of your contract. It is your responsibility to check your account by calling or emailing.
If you’ve chosen to pick up unsold items, we will email you a date by which you need to pick up. Consignors have one week to pick up unsold merchandise from the day we email, otherwise merchandise will automatically be donated to Sola Lucy.
If we find major damage/issues after intake we will email an Early Return letter notifying you to pick up within one week. If we don't hear back, items will be donated to the store! We will always contact consigners about all returns by email. Consignment is a two-way contract and we stay on top of contracts on our end; we hope consignors will take partial responsibility as well!
We are unable to provide donation receipts.
