Trading Places is committed to giving buyers the best possible price for quality items, while at the same time ensuring that our consignors receive the highest fair market value. Based on our extensive research, experience and historical pricing database, our inventory is priced contingent on brand, style and condition and to be an excellent value compared to buying new.

In order to keep our inventory fresh and to sell items within the 120 day consignment period, we will progressively reduce our prices over time. Therefore, it is up to you to decide which price you are willing to pay. That’s right, we don’t accept offers, negotiate and haggle over prices, rather our tags fully disclose the dates of the future markdowns.


Here’s how it works:
Each price tag shows the starting price on the bottom of the tag. A comparable retail price will also be stated if known.
The brand will be referenced in the top left corner.
The price is reduced by 10% every 20 days.
Each tag clearly shows the dates that the future markdowns will occur.
When the last date on the tag is reached, the item will stay at this price throughout the remainder of the consignment period.
Some items will not show a markdown because they are brand new.
Price reductions occur every day throughout the store. Items are priced to sell within 30 days, and many items sell during the first week.


Decisions, Decisions…
Should I buy it now? What if someone else buys it first? Maybe, I will just wait…

Most likely you won’t be the only person who’s watching a particular item!


“The item you saw today
And want to think about tonight
Will be sold later today
To the people that saw it yesterday
And thought about it last Night!”
– From Experience!
