Shopping Tips

  • Sign up for their text or email alerts to be notified about special sales events and discount days that happen throughout the year.
  • If you're selling clothes, bring items that are clean, folded, and in-season for the best chance of acceptance and higher payout.
  • Shop mid-week for the freshest inventory, as many people sell items over the weekend and new merchandise is typically processed within 1-3 days.
  • Check back regularly as inventory turns over quickly – if you see something you love, grab it because it likely won't be there next time.
  • Follow Plato's Closet Southington on social media where they often post newly arrived high-demand items and announce flash sales.
