Experience you can hand your treasures to
Not My First Vintage Rodeo, Darling!
Before launching The Kitschy Maximalist, I owned and operated a vintage and consignment boutique in Sarasota, Florida, for two years. I’ve also been involved in e-commerce since the early days of eBay.
I bring years of experience in selecting, merchandising, marketing, and selling distinctive pieces, so you can feel confident your treasures are in experienced hands.
How It Works
Show Us Your Fabulous Finds
Contact us with information and photos of the designer or vintage pieces you’d like to consign.
Let’s Meet & Take a Peek
We’ll arrange a local appointment to personally inspect your items, evaluate their condition, and decide which pieces are a fabulous fit for our collection.
All items are subject to approval. Not every treasure makes the guest list!
We Handle the Selling
Once your items are approved and your consignment agreement is signed, we take care of the selling process, including:
- Photographing and styling your pieces
- Writing descriptions and creating listings
- Marketing your items to potential buyers
- Handling customer questions and offers
- Packaging and shipping sold merchandise
Your items may be featured on The Kitschy Maximalist website, Poshmark, Facebook Marketplace, and other approved resale platforms.
You Get Paid!
When your item sells, you receive 25% of the final item selling price, and The Kitschy Maximalist receives 75%.
No photographing. No listing headaches. No strangers asking whether you’ll accept $3 for a designer handbag.
Just cash for fabulous things you no longer wear.
