Send photos of your items to our consignment team including close-ups of any imperfections by e-mail to [email protected]. Alternatively you can bring the clean, good quality and mint condition garments, shoes and accessories that you wish to consign into the RUSE storefront for selection.
We will notify you if we are interested in trying any of your items on consignment by e-mail. The selection can be dropped off at anytime during our opening hours. Please ensure that your items are in a closed plastic or garment bag.
As a safety precaution, items will be placed in quarantine for a duration of 48HRS before being evaluated and authenticated by our staff. Once complete, you will receive a price list by e-mail.
If you choose to simply make a drop off, it is imperative that your non-selected items be picked up a maximum of 2 weeks after they are taken in for selection. Non-selected items that have not been collected will be donated to a charity organization.
To expedite the process, please bring a completed copy of the RUSE Consignment Contract with you.
*If you are not based in Montreal but are interested in consigning with us, please email photographs of your items to [email protected].

ASKED QUESTIONS
Does RUSE purchase items?
We do not purchase any items.
We operate on a consignment basis only.
Will my items be available in store and online?
Certain items will be exclusively sold online or in-store. However, some items will be available through both avenues.
How are prices assigned?
Our educated team of professionals strives to assign prices that reflect the condition, original retail value and uniqueness of each item. Items are priced so that they sell quickly and efficiently to better serve the best interest of our consignors and consumers.
Will my item prices be reduced?
We reserve the right to lower the price of any item by 15-20% after 2 months of the consignment period have passed. This is one of the most effective ways for an item to sell in its final month of consignment.
How can I prove my luxury items are authentic?
There are numerous ways to assist in proving the authenticity of your items. Original receipts, boxes/dust bags, certificates of authenticity or other documentation can contribute to the authentication of your item. As explained in our AUTHENTICITY section of our website, we work alongside experts to guarantee the authenticity of every item we consign. Ultimately, RUSE reserves the right to refuse any item that cannot be proven as 100% authentic.
Are pieces only accepted if they are in season?
Yes. Spring/Summer pieces are accepted from March to August. Fall/Winter pieces are accepted from August to March.
Are there any brands you do not accept?
Pieces from fast-fashion brands such as Zara, H&M, Forever21 and inexpensive online retailers are not accepted. We strive to offer our clients high quality pieces in order to encourage a sustainable fashion cycle.
