Thank you for your interest in becoming a Seller at our Nearly New Sale on Sunday 18th September 2022 (10am to 12 noon) to be held at Brentwood School Sports Centre, Middleton Hall Lane, Brentwood CM15 8EE.

The cost of registering to be a Seller is £10.00.

Anything you sell at the sale on the day will be subject to a 25% donation to NCT.

The following registration add-ons are available:

  Description Price
Maternity Clothes labels x9 x9 maternity clothes labels £0.00

If you volunteer for the Sunday All Day slot, this will be reduced to 20%.

Please note that £5 of this registration fee is a refundable deposit. As long as you sign in with our
Sellers Coordinator when dropping off your items for sale, this will be refunded to your card after the
sale. The other £5 is non-refundable.



PLEASE READ ON as there are a few changes compared to previous sales which you should be aware
of before
signing up to the sale.

A summary of the CHANGES are:

- Labels will be provided by email rather than by post – this means you will need to print your own
labels.

- The maximum number of items each seller can sell is limited to 100 items.

- Clothing and shoes can be sold – please only sell seasonal clothes. You will have 25 labels available
for
clothes and shoes.

- All items for sale must be dropped at the hall on Saturday evening between 5.30pm and 7.00pm – no
items can be accepted on Sunday morning.

- Please try not to bring children with you when dropping items off, as we cannot be held responsible for
their safety in such a busy environment. If you do bring them, please ensure they do not run around and
keep out of volunteers’ and other sellers’ way as there will be lots of heavy boxes being carried around.

- To receive your sold labels as proof of sale, you will need to provide a stamped addressed envelope
when dropping off your items. These will be posted out once all the labels have been processed after
the sale. You will not be able to collect these on the day.

- Your unsold items will need to be collected between 2.00pm and 2.30pm

- A refundable deposit of £5 was taken at registration. This will be refunded to you after the sale,
assuming you turn up to sell items.


More details will be included in your Seller's Pack which will be emailed to you nearer the sale along
with
your pre numbered labels to be printed out.



PAYMENT OF SALES PROCEEDS:

The proceeds from your sales will be paid by BACS transfer directly into your bank account. All
information is held securely on this site - bank information is not viewable by branch volunteers. BACS
payments can take up to 2 weeks after the sale but we aim to send on the Friday after the sale so they
arrive in your bank account on the following Tuesday.



VOLUNTEERING:

If you are able to volunteer at the event as well, please continue to our Volunteer Registration section
once you have finished with the Seller Registration. Our sales are only a success and keep running
because of our wonderful helpers. Please do not bring children with when volunteering - we cannot be
responsible for their safety in such a busy environment.

To reward you for your help, volunteers are entitled to shop before the sale in a limited pre-sale period
on the Sunday morning (usually around 9am). The sellers' commission is also reduced from 25% to
20% for sellers who also volunteer to help during the Sunday All Day slot.


ADVERTISING:

In order to maximse how much money you make at the sale, please spread the word to get as many
buyers through
the door as possible. You can do this by:

- like, comment and share our facebook and instagram posts

- sharing our poster (which we will include in the Seller's Pack email) with as many people as possible -
friends, family, schools, nurseries, baby groups etc

- having an advertising board outside your house - we are partnering with a local estate agent - to do
this, please email your name and address to NNS.Brentwood@NCT.org.uk and we will pass this on to
the estate agents who will arrange the boards.


COMPLETION OF REGISTRATION:
