Consignment in store
Products are selected based on their appeal, style, quality and rarity. Only clothing in good condition is accepted. Clothing must be washed and free of stains, tears, holes, fading or other forms of wear. We do not accept fast fashion items from brands such as Ardene, Garage, Forever 21 or H&M.
Store drop-off days are Thursdays and Fridays by appointment only . The sorting of pieces accepted for deposit will be done on site. If any of your pieces are selected, you will need to complete this contract .
If it is impossible to come to the store, you can submit your pieces by email to info@boutiquebeesknees.com including:
Once accepted, all pieces will be evaluated and subjected to quality control. Minor improvements may need to be made (for example: stitching, finishing, hemming, removing stains or pilling, repairing holes).
Following this evaluation and the information provided, Bee's Knees will set the deposit price and the percentage of commission you will obtain. A list of sales prices will be sent to you for each item placed in consignment.

The amount of sales accumulated for each seller is counted once a month. The results are posted online on the 15th day of the month. An email is then sent to all consignees. You can consult the sales results at any time on our site: Sales results .
If you don't see your name in the list, you haven't made any sales this month.
We do not produce custom sales or inventory reports upon request. You always have easy and direct access to this important information thanks to the sent price lists and the sales results page.
Since you act as a supplier, it is important to track your sales with the price lists sent and the sales results provided to you each month. You are responsible for tracking your payments due by following the instructions below.
An email to consignees is sent on the 15th day of the month, before 5 p.m. From this moment, you have 7 working days to come forward and recover the amount of your sales. We will not respond to emails after this deadline, and your winnings will then be carried over to the following month.
It’s important to track your sales so you don’t miss anything. If we go 2 months without hearing from you, you risk service fees on the amount of sales.

Despite all our good will and vigilance, damage caused by customers as well as shoplifting are among the risks of consignment sales. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, this merchandise is legally yours and Bee's Knees is not responsible for any losses.
It is possible to recover unsold items. To do this :
- Write to us indicating your name and the items you wish to collect and including as an attachment the price list received during consignment.
- We will then respond to you with a pickup date. The pick-up date may vary between 2 and 6 weeks since certain clothes, particularly those out of season, are stored outside the store.
