Dear Consignor,
We are writing to you as a current consignor with The Perfect Thing. As you are most likely aware, our shop has been closed to the public by governmental mandate since March 20, 2020. We cannot allow any persons, outside of essential staff, in the shop until the State of Illinois cancels in the Stay at Home Order. At this time the order is in place until April 30, 2020. There is also talk of the order being continued until mid-May at best. We are watching, and listening, everyday to the governmental directives.
I am sure you can imagine the effect it has had on our business, and as an extension, your consignment.
In order to keep our staff safe from the virus, we are monitoring the website and listing items daily to allow for virtual sales only. We are also utilizing our other online portals as marketplaces in which to sell your items. However, truthfully, the sales are not strong.
For any sales we do make that need to be delivered or shipped, we are taking extra precaution by wiping down the item with disinfectant, packing and preparing each while wearing gloves and masks for everyone's protection. We have been offering curb-side pick up, but we hear that the City of Wheaton is attempting to close that process down also. Therefore, for items that cannot be shipped, we will need to hold sold items in the shop until we are given the all clear.
We ask for your patience during this time. We will not be closing any consignments that were current on March 10, 2020, which means those expiring on or after that date. These consignments will be extended until further notice. To that effect, we will not be able to return any items to consignors until we are allowed to have the public in our shop, unless you would like to arrange professional moving or shipping. We will continue to take new consignments for those dealing with home closings, with full estates, but will not be doing individual consignments at this time.
We are in this together. We are doing the best we can in what is a terrible time for all of us.
We hope you are all well and that your families are out of harms way. For our clients who are in the medical field, postal service, delivery service and first responders, we pray for your safety and health everyday and thank you for your services.
Should you need to contact us, please email Kate@theperfectthing.net. We are monitoring the email everyday. But please know that we also have families and need to make sure that they are safe and well. It might be a while to get back to you regarding an issue.
Thank you for your understanding .
Health and Peace
