One more question that deserves an entry of it's own.

What's the difference between a worker and a sorter? Why do sorters get to shop so early?

Let's be honest, our sale is what it is greatly due to our wonderful volunteers. From receiving to removing tags or working the final sort, every position is important. So what do sorters do and why do they get to shop first?

Sorters are the few who commit to helping out once the sale has come to a close. At that point, every last item is sorted by seller number and gathered together so our consignors can walk in on Sunday and pick their items up without having to search high and low for them. Sorting isn't for the faint of heart, but it is something that we do work hard to keep fun and as fast moving as possible.

For a sorter to shop the super early Sorter PreSale, they must commit to working the entire sort shift, from the time of close (2PM) til the bitter end - regardless of how long it takes. Obviously, the more hands we have working, the smoother and more quickly we are able to wrap things up.

If you enjoy organization, aren't afraid to do a little hard work (nothing too physically challenging, honest) and are able to stay and work till the job's done, contact us today. We'd love to have you join our crew!
