Contract Consignment
Consignment Agreement/Contract
APPROVAL: Please email us pictures of your costume(s) that you plan to sell. It is better to have an idea if a costume is sellable up front rather than you send it and we return it as non-saleable.
We accept all costumes. Please be mindful higher end costumers sell for more than basic recital or catalogue costumes.
COSTUMES: Please look over the costume, carefully. Look for sweat and deodorant stains, missing beading/stones, pulls or tears in the fabric. If you look at the costume and you would not let your child wear it, then don’t consign it.
CLEAN: Do not send us costumes that have not been cleaned. If you were to receive a costume from someone, you would not want a dirty one. We reserve the right to return them to you if they are too dirty. If we do have to wash them, we charge a $25 fee off the top of your sales. Also, make sure that the arm pits, and undergarment areas are CLEAN!!! You can clean your costumes by hand washing with Woolite or another gentle laundry detergent. If you have more than minimal (5) rhinestones missing or we have to repair your costume, an additional charge will be assessed based on labor fees to our company. If you can repair zippers, stones missing, rips, tears and beading yourself, please do so before sending us your items. We DO GO THROUGH EVERY COSTUME TO CHECK FOR DAMAGE AND CLEANLINESS!
ARRIVAL: Once approved, costumes may be dropped off at our North Augusta, SC location or shipped to us at
Morris Creations & Dancewear
2601 Edgefield Road
Trenton, SC 29847
Please do not send or drop off any costumes that were not previously approved via email or text. We will not accept them, and in some cases may add fees to your account for the additional time required to process these costumes.

If you have a costume that you had as a solo and you simply do not want to sell it under
a specific price, please write DO NOT SELL BELOW and the price next to it. If your
costume comes in with a group, the group rate will have to be set at the same rate. If
you send in group costumes, make sure all costumes have the same parts and pieces.
Group costumes have to match in pieces and price. When sending in your costumes
please package those in the large, clear Ziploc bags. There are Large, XL and 2XL big
bags along with gallon size bags available for different types of costumes that can be
folded neatly inside. Please don’t stuff your costumes into a bag that is too small to hold
it as it may damage the costume. Please make sure all of the information above is on
the card placed inside the bag. Local customers we can meet for pickup but please
make sure you follow the same guidelines. If you have a tutu, please contact us prior to
shipping as these items cannot be shipped in the same manner.
PRICING: When we receive your costume, we take pictures for the website and include it in our inventory. We determine the price of your costume based on how the market is
trending, usually 50-75% of its original price. This may not always be your asking price. Based on previous experience and those of our other competitors, you are likely to only get about ½ of the purchase price on simpler costumes and higher for more extravagant ones. Be realistic and let us help you sell your costumes! Once costumes has been sold and payments are cleared we will send you the money by credit card you provided in the contract. We do not mail cash or checks.
FEES: Our fee on the sale of your costume is 40 percent of the selling price of the costume
plus tax and shipping. Our fee is based on the amount of time it takes us to inventory,
appraise, and load the costumes on the site, as well as storing them for the period of
the contract. Again, you will incur additional fees for the washing and repairing of your
costume if deemed necessary. Once a costume is sold we will send your money to you via credit card.
TIME FRAME: The consignment period is for 12 months (1 year). At the end of the contract, the consignee has the option to take back their costume(s) less the shipping and handling fee. The consignee also has the option to renew their contract for another 12 moths period unless the consignor feels the costume or dress is unsalable.
If the consignee does not respond to the Consigner’s request to either send back or re-consign the costume/dress the costume/dress becomes property of Morris Creations & Dancewear after 10 days.
LOSS/DAMAGE: Morris Creations & Dancewear is not liable for loss or damage to any of consigned items through FIRE, THEFT, VANDALISM, NATURAL DISASTER, ACCIDENTS, and other perils.
I herby grant full permission for Morris Creations & Dancewear to use my child’s likeness in any media including videos and/or pictures on the business website for any legitimate purpose that promotes the business and/or the sale of costumes. I agree that this release/agreement will be governed by the laws of the South Carolina and is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the law of the South Carolina and that if any portion of it is held invalid, the remainder shall, not-‐with-‐standing, continue in full legal force and effect.
