A little bit about Castaways....

Castaways Consignment
1239 Peoria Street
Washington, Illinois 61571

Open Monday through Saturday 10-5

Castaways is a great consignment shop located in Washington, Illinois. We have customers of every age and we carry everything from Baby Gap to Matilda Jane to J Crew to Coldwater Creek. Lately, we have been lucky enough to find a niche in boutique brands and designer items. If you haven't made a trip to Castaways, you've simply got to check us out. If you are interested in becoming a consignor, here are a few simple guidelines:
1. We take first time consignors and any consignments with children's clothing by appointment. If you are bringing in ladies' items, after that first visit, you don't need an appointment.
2. We have a $5.00 annual fee, which is automatically pulled off your account as your first items begin to sell. There is a 50/50 split on all items sold. We have a 60 day consignment period and we mark down items any time after 30 days.
3. We take clothing that is in style, name brand, and in great shape. It must be freshly laundered and well presented. It also must be appropriate for the current or upcoming season, depending on the time of year.
No trash bags, please and thank you! We also take fun and fashionable purses, shoes, and other accessories. Since we carry most of our own jewelry, we only accept Lia Sophia, Silpada, or similarly well~known brands on consignment.

Here is a list of some desirable name brands:

Ann Taylor Loft
Gap
J Crew
Hollister
Gymboree
Baby Gap/Gap Kids
Matilda Jane
Mini Boden
Chico's
Coldwater Creek
Tory Burch
Coach
Banana Republic
The North Face
True Religion

If you have any questions please email, comment, or call the shop at 309-886-2424. Thanks!

I have been the proud owner of Castaways Consignment for nearly TEN YEARS! I love my job and I love continuing my fashion and resale education nearly every day. I have been married for 13 years and I have two little boys, aged 4 and 7, so yep! I have my hands pretty full. We live in a big old house in a small town, which we will happily call home until we finally retire and move to my beloved south. Read more about my life by following Castaways' blog, I'm pretty much an open book!
