o Use only 3x5 index cards clearly marked with your consignor number, item size and gender, item description, and price
o Use only wire hangers. . .plastic department-store children’s hangers (not the round tubular ones) are acceptable for smaller items to improve presentation

o Price in whole dollar amounts only
