FAQs
If you have questions that aren’t covered here, we would love to hear from you! Please contact us so that we can be of further assistance.
I have dropped off my items. When will they be put out for sale?
For the most up-to-date information on processing times, please see the Consignor Portal page for current status. Here are additional details:
We try to get drop offs out on the sales floor as quickly as possible (our goal is in less than one week). However, we are facing several challenges as we grow that are currently preventing us from getting items out in that time frame.
- Our popularity has grown quicker than our team. We are deeply thankful for the quick growth, but we have had difficulty quickly processing drop offs due to this. We are adding and training staff as quickly as we can, and we apppreciate everybody’s patience as we learn and grow. We have had some wonderful people join our team in addition to our existing team that has been working hard to get drop offs out quicker.
- For some items, such as jewelry and designer bags, we have limited space available in the store. To avoid overcrowding (which would make your items difficult to see, thus decreasing the change that it would sell at full price), we put out these items as space opens up. Although the wait for these items to be put out is longer, it does help us get a better price for our consignors.
We very much appreciate everybody’s patience as we learn and grow!
Do you accept donations?
No, we do not accept donations because we are not a nonprofit. All the items we sell are actually owned by our consignors. Consignors are paid for what we sell for them, and they get their items back if they don’t sell unless the consignor prefers for them to be donated to a local nonprofit. Check out the About Consigning page for more information.
If you prefer to donate your clothing to a nonprofit as opposed to consigning it, we are happy to refer you to great resources in our community that accept donations to benefit those in need around our community.
Do I need an appointment to bring my items?
Due to limitations in staffing and store size, we do currently need appointments for all drop offs. We encourage everybody to book their drop off as far in advance as possible because we usually have a waitlist.
Please visit our Appointments page to reserve your drop off time.
If you have size 3X and above, please contact us to be put on a priority list in the case that we get a cancellation. We need these sizes very badly and can occasionally make expections for drop offs with these sizes.

Do you buy used or new items?
We do not currently buy items outright. We do accept them on consignment, which is where we accept your items and then pay you when they are sold. Please see our About Consigning page for more informaiton.
We may consider offering this option in the future.

Send our social media accounts to your friends, share our posts to your stories and your pages, invite friends to the events we post, and like & comment on what we post. Any interaction with our content on social media tells the platforms that our content is interesting, so it pushes it to more people. In turn, that means we can sell more of your items!
I don’t wear plus size clothing. Can I find anything at your store?
Absolutely! You would not believe the selection of affordable and gently loved bags, jewelry, and accessories we receive. Even if you don’t wear plus size, please stop by because everybody is welcome.
What sizes/items do you accept?
In general, we accept women’s clothing size large and up with no size cap, accessories, and bags. We prefer not to accept higher-end jewelry because we do not currently possess the skills to authenticate it. Please see our What We Accept page for full details as there are a select few categories that we no longer accept due to low demand.
Do you accept or sell men's style clothing?
At the current time, we do not accept or sell men’s style clothing. We have tried it in the past with little success. We do plan to try it again in the future if we are able.
Is there a registration fee to be a consignor?
When can I pick up my items?
Items must stay in the store for approximately 120 days after drop off. This helps our operations remain efficient. Following those 120 days, you will be contacted to arrange a pick up time for your items. You no longer have to have an appointment to pick up your items. Occasionally, we may also contact you about picking up items that do not meet our quality standards that are found after they were dropped off. If you have been contacted to get your items, you can come by anytime that we are open to pick them up.
Alternatively, you can choose to have your items donated to a local nonprofit after they are removed from the store.
How do know what my consignor number is?
Within two business days of receiving your application, we will send you a personalized email with your consignor number. Keep an eye out for an email from cookevilleplus@gmail.com
Why do you accept size large if you are a plus size store? Large isn’t plus size.
Although large isn’t technically plus size, there are people that wear this size that struggle to find clothing that is right for them. For this reason, we chose to include this size.
Can I bring in clothing that isn't plus or mid sized?
No, we are a sale that specializes in plus and mid sized clothing and are not able to accommodate anything under a size large. As much as we would love to be completely size-inclusive, we’ve chosen to focus our efforts to help mid and plus size women have more options for clothing.
However, with this being said, everybody is welcome to shop and consign with us regardless of size or other factors. If the clothes we carry aren’t the right fit for you, we also have other fun things such as bags, jewelry, and accessories.
How can I keep up with upcoming sales and announcements?
- Registering for our newsletter is the best way to keep up with announcements. We don’t send many emails, but we do send coupons and sale dates. Sign up at the bottom of any page on this website.
- We also announce sales and events on our social media accounts, but these announcements can be easily overlooked.

No, we do not accept donations because we are not a nonprofit. All the items we sell are actually owned by our consignors. Consignors are paid for what we sell for them, and they get their items back if they don’t sell unless the consignor prefers for them to be donated to a local nonprofit.
