Bring & Buy
Is your dolly closet overflowing?
Are you worried about making that even worse when you see our fab vendors?
Luckily we have the perfect solution – a BlytheCon UK charity bring and buy sale!
Simply bring along some of your sundries, and let us sell them for you on the day. Not only do you get to clear out some of your old bits and bobs, but 10% of the proceeds will be taken off for donation to our charity. Everybody wins!
At home…
- Download our free printable item list and item labels (linked below) to get started
- Pick out your best items – bag them up and prepare your list and labels.
- Remember to bring your items and list on the day!
Top tip: everyone loves a bargain! Try to price items realistically for the best chances of success!
Top tip: bigger bags where you can see everything inside tend to sell better! Try not to cram items into small bags where they’re hard to see.
On the day…
- Bring your bagged and labelled items with you, along with a copy of your item list
- Visit our friendly bring and buy volunteer stall on the day, and our team will do the rest
- Collect your money towards the end of the day, minus the 10% fee for our chosen charity
Bring & Buy Rules
- You can bring a maximum of 5 items for sale – this is to give everyone a fair chance at selling their items, as the bring and buy is always very busy and popular!
- Items must be clean and in good condition
- Items must not be made specifically for sale – it’s a closet clear out!
- Items must be labelled, and inside plastic/Ziploc bags
- The item labels must match the items on the list you leave with our volunteers
- Clothing, accessories, and other sundries are fine – we will not accept any dolls or doll parts for sale
- We retain the right to refuse items if they are deemed unsuitable or the stall is overstocked
- Prices should be marked clearly in £ GBP only
- 10% of any sales will be deducted to give to our event charity
- To clarify a frequently asked question, when we say 5 items, this means you can bring up to 5 plastic bags of stuff. Multiple things in a bag to sell as a lot is absolutely fine – for example, several pieces of a stock outfit, etc.
Would you like to volunteer?
Like BlytheCon UK itself, The bring and buy stall relies on volunteers to be able to run – if you can donate some time on the day it’s a great way to meet people, make new friends, and potentially indulge in a little bit of first dibs shopping… sound good?
