Wondering if your shop, which isn't consignment, fits into this site? Read more at our Sponsor FAQs Yes, you do.. click here!

HOW MUCH?
For pennies a day, your shop web site is actively linked, all day every day of the year, on our Clickable Map & Directory. Your future clients can even see exactly where your shop is with our ZOOMABLE Map. Membership is from July 1 of any year until June 30 of the following year. This is the resale advertising Internet deal of the decade!

WHY pay to be on HTC when other "lists" are free?
Yes, there are free lists. But do you really want your shop to jostle for attention with ads for Tshirts, bouncing pigs, or others' self-promotion? That's like hiding your shop behind someone else's billboards. Location, location, location counts, especially when someone's cruising the web trying to find out about your shop, not some self-promoter. For less than a quarter a day, your shop shines out on HowToConsign.com.

ONLY HTC pre-educates shoppers and suppliers, making your job easier and more profitable.

Here's a benefit you'll enjoy more than all the rest: Because standards on how to prepare items are posted on HTC as an independent web site, these standards are perceived by potential suppliers as important and necessary. It's not YOU being fussy: just say "This is the industry standard as seen on HowToConsign.com." In other words: HTC takes the blame for your being selective about quality, condition, and stylishness!
