Tagging Instructions
TO SAVE YOU TIME & FRUSTRATION AT DROP OFF, BE SURE TO READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO TAGGING!
Mom’s Marketplace reserves the right to reject items and to pull off the floor any items we find unsuitable. We also reserve the right to not accept items that we consider to be excessively overpriced. As stated in the consignor agreement that you sign during the registration process, Moms Marketplace is not responsible for lost goods, for damaged goods, for stolen goods or any acts of God (ex: tornado, damaging winds etc.). that may affect the items that you have consigned.
We do implement security measures to mitigate loss.

HOW TO USE A MOBILE PHONE AND ENTER INVENTORY BY VOICE (INSTEAD OF TYPING)
The fastest way to use voice entry efficiently is to organize and lay all your items in front of you, by category and size.
1.SIGN INTO WEBSITE “CONSIGNMENT LOGIN” (WWW.MOMSMARKETPLACE.NET TOP RIGHT OF PAGE
2.Enter you consignor number and password
- Click on Activities Menu
- Choose “Work w/consigned inventory”
- Choose Active Inventory
- Choose “mobile version voice entry (beta)
- click and Choose Category (example: Shoes Boys)
- Click and Choose Item Size (example: 9)
The program will remember the category and size from the last item until you choose to change them.
9a. Think about what you are going to say before- hand -example: “black boots with laces”.
9b. HERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT KEY TO SUCCESSFUL ENTRY:
- The program will only enter the correct information in this order: Description, price, discount, donate.
- To enter the selling price, you must say: “Price 5 dollars”. Otherwise, you will get an error
- (Before learning this, we all thought the program didn’t understand “southern accents!”)
9c. You must say “discount” – You must say “donate”. Otherwise it defaults to no discount-no donate.
- Place your cursor inside the box that says “Dictate your item here”
- Your keyboard will pop up.
- Hit the microphone icon and start speaking:
Black boots with laces Price 5 dollars discount donate
- When done dictating, hit the microphone icon again.
- Hit submit item.
- Note: If you need an edit, hit the button/or delete button to start over!
- When you are finished with all your items, following instructions for printing tags.
damage from a tagging gun renders it unsellable
PLEASE DO NOT USE A TAGGING GUN. IT SLOWS THE CHECKOUT LINES ON BUSY DAYS. IT PUTS HOLES IN CLOTHES. ALL BAR CODE TAGS MUST BE PINNED OVER THE HEART (WHEN YOU ARE WEARING THE ITEM)
TIPS FOR TAGGING:
- Do NOT Procrastinate! The tagging system automatically closes 5 days prior to the sale.
- Do not alter the size of the printed tag. Bar Code scanning system is connected to this tag. We will not sell your item if you alter the size of the tag. The barcode scanner will not operate on altered tags.
- Do not have any handwritten information on the tag.
- What is a resort #? It helps us return your items at end of sale. Each sale you may receive a different resort number. So reprint your tags so your items will be returned to you!
- You must make a choice to discount/donate when you make the tag. We cannot change your tags. No handwriting the word discount on the tag. The computer must read it from the bar code.
- If you are going to donate, it makes sense to also choose discount.
