Who Can Become a Vendor
Families with current Manitoba Families of Multiples memberships are permitted to sell items in the MBFOM sales. To assist in ensuring there is room for all members to participate as vendors in the Sales and to respect the privilege of MBFOM membership status, please refrain from selling items on behalf of others at the sale.
How to Register as a Vendor
When registering, you will need your MBFOM membership number and you will have to indicate if you will be picking up or donating your unsold items after the sale. Please include the mailing address where your cheque is to be mailed to. Please contact Sales Team at the above email address if you are unsure what your membership number is.
What Can Be Sold at MBFOM Sales
The most common items that are sold in MBFOM sales are children’s clothing from preemie to youth size 16, shoes up to youth size 6, toys, children’s and parenting books, baby/toddler items for feeding/diapering/bathing and large equipment such as strollers, highchairs, playpens etc.
All items are to be in gently used condition and should be in season (snow suits in the fall sale, sandals in the spring sale). If you have out of season items you wish to sell before the next sale you can post those on our Facebook page after the sale or before the selling blackout period. Check Section 4 for the MBFOM Facebook Group selling blackout dates).
What Not to Sell at MBFOM Sales
Clothing larger than youth size 16 (with the exception of maternity clothing), shoes larger than youth size 6 or general garage-sale type items are not permitted in the sale. Items that are deemed soiled, torn, or heavily used will be removed from the sale floor and returned to the vendor. Ensure that games, equipment, etc. have all pieces included, and check that they are in good working order. No carnival stuffed toys are to be sold; all stuffed toys must have tags.
Sale items must be:
- Working condition or otherwise stated
- Cleaned prior to sale
- Have no holes/rips
- Have no stains
- Games/equipment should have all pieces and be in working order
- No carnival toys (stuffed toys must have tags)
Items that do not adhere to these standards are removed from the sale floor. We will be tracking these. If more than four of a seller’s items have to be removed from the sale because they do adhere to these standards, the MBFOM executive may suspend this member family from selling in the next sale.
Large heavy items such as cribs, mattresses, dressers, changing tables will not be allowed on the sales floor. You are welcome to advertise your items on our Facebook page, newsletter or make a sign to post on the wall at the sale.
Please do not bring any free items to the sale. If you have any good condition items that you would like to donate to our chosen charity, please bring it at 3:15 pm on Saturday when the sale is finished and you are picking up your unsold items.
If anyone wishes to donate items to the benefit of the club, please use member #999 and if they sell, the proceeds will be donated to the club and help enhance our club events.
If you fear losing an item of large value, please do not put it in the sale. We would rather you post it on our Facebook page or make a sign to be placed on the wall of the arena.
