Acceptance of merchandise for consignment at the Dogwood depends on many factors, including space limitations, the market for an item at a specific time, and experience with what sells in our market. General guidelines are below. However, if you have an item you think is a good fit for the Dogwood - even if it is listed below as a generally not accepted item - feel free to bring it or a picture of it in and let us see it. Exceptional or unusual items in most categories may be excellent candidates for consignment. Thank you so much for your support!
