When someone sells your items on your behalf in exchange for a commission it is called consignment. You are consigning with us for a 10-day period of time. You will receive a check totaling 65% to 80% of your sales based on your JLN Team Members shifts. Additionally there is an $20 participation fee subtracted from your commission.
The sale will open its doors to the public on Thursday morning at 10 am. The sale will remain open Friday and Saturday. Team Members and consignors are given the opportunity to shop on Wednesday evening in a private preview sale Click here for a complete listing of sale dates.
Yes, Sunday, March 10th, 2024 at 11:59pm. You need to have at least 20 items tagged and a drop-off appointment selected by this time. Please don’t wait until the last minute. (See FAQ#13)
Just about any item related to children will be offered for sale. Each sale will offer a unique variety of children’s merchandise. Consignors are able to sell clothing, toys, bikes, books, games, DVDs, computer games, nursery items (including furniture), maternity clothing, outdoor toys, household items (more info) and much more!
We specialize in new and almost new merchandise. Many of our items will have their original tags still attached. Those items are quick to sell, so be sure to get in early if that is what you are shopping for.
Absolutely, but with one exception! At JLN we know how important the family is! That’s why we exist! HOWEVER: Children will NOT be allowed during the Wednesday Pre-View Sale, unless they are nursing infants. This is a VERY busy time with lots of “power shopping” going on.
During the Public sale days (Thurs-Sat), please do NOT leave children unattended. Make sure to visit South Central PA Highway Safety’s Car Seat Inspection on Thursday, from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm. Kids really love to visit with “Red” from Red Robin during this time as well!
You are welcome to bring a basket (laundry or other), box/bin or any bag that would not be mistaken for a shopping bag (beach, mesh or over the shoulder towel bags work best). Strollers can be hard to navigate with so many folks. Get there early and scoop one of ours at a bargain price! Please be patient with our “Receipt Checkers” at the door. It is JLN’s policy to check every bag and stroller with your itemized receipt. The baskets like below are awesome to bring!
We will accept cash, check (government issued ID required), and Mastercard, American Express, Discover or Visa. 4.5% will be added to all credit card transactions. A $35 Returned check fee will be applied NO EXCEPTIONS. We prosecute bad checks to the full extent of the law.

The First Time Mom’s / Grandparents Preview Sale is intended as a special opportunity for Moms/Dads of first children (Expecting through 18 months) and new Grandparents. This program applies to first foster and adopted children as well. The 18th month restriction was extended from 1 year so that each parent should have the chance to shop early for both a Spring AND Fall Sale. All you have to do is Pre-Register here. We will add your name to our mailing list automatically so you can stay aware of future sales. This program is our way of giving a new family a great start. We count on everyone’s honesty in order for this program to continue. This program is limited to the FIRST 150 eligible who sign up.
NO Children permitted on Pre-View night: only nursing infants. Please join us with your little ones on Public Days Shopping.
Each one is a bit different due to differences in computers, such as XP vs. Vista, firewall / browser software, and Internet Service Providers, but we can cover the top ones:
- Have you registered as either a “New” or “Returning” consignor for THIS sale? Once you have registered your number will remain the same forever.
- Do you have a Netgear WGR614 v9 router that is “dropping ” sessions? Some have had success by updating router firmware. All succeeded in fixing the issue by bypassing the router, or replacing it with a Linksys or other brand. Drop us an e-mail if you run into this one.
- Have you disabled ALL pop-up blockers? (sometimes you have more than one)
- Have you lowered your firewall or privacy software’s “cookie” setting or placed “www.justlikenewkids.com” and “www.mysalemanager.net” in your “trusted” or “allowed” site list?
- In some cases simply downloading an alternate browser like Mozilla’s Firefox can solve the problem. This is often the case if you have Vista, but is true with XP as well. UPDATE: AUG 27, 2008 — Some folks have experienced a PRINTING problem with Firefox version 3. This is a Firefox issue, NOT our program. Our recommendation is to NOT install/upgrade to Firefox 3. If Firefox has automatically updated, we recommend un-installing Firefox3 and then installing Firefox 2.0.0.14 or another browser like Safari or Opera. Read more about this glitch at CNET HERE.
