Three Kinds of Stock, One Shelf

Tag each item as donated, bought outright, or consigned at intake. PuppetVendors applies the right rule at the register: full margin on your own goods, a split on consigned ones, without you sorting it out at month end.

Intake Fast Enough to Keep Up

Intake Fast Enough to Keep Up

Thrift stock never restocks. Every sweater is its own SKU that exists once. Consignors upload their own items through a portal for your approval, so intake stops being the ceiling on how much you can sell.

Let Consignors Check Their Own Earnings

Every consignor gets a branded login showing their sales, what's still on the floor, and payout history. They check the portal instead of texting you "did anything sell?"

Someone buys the only copy at the register and it comes off the website in the same moment. With one-of-one inventory there's no buffer stock to absorb a double sale.

Donated, bought, or consigned. One store, one inventory count.

Resale store software has a harder job than ordinary retail. Thrift, resale, and secondhand stores run a mixed model: some stock is donated, some you buy outright from sellers, and some is consigned, held on behalf of someone who still owns it until it sells. Each type has different economics, and a spreadsheet stops telling them apart somewhere past a few hundred items.

PuppetVendors adds the ownership layer Shopify doesn't have. Each consignor is a vendor with their own split. Every item is tied to its owner at intake. When something sells, online or through Shopify POS, the split calculates itself and the payout runs on your schedule through PayPal or Stripe.

The Harder Parts of Running a Thrift & Resale Store on Shopify

01

Three kinds of stock, one shelf. Donated goods are yours. Bought-outright stock is yours at cost. Consigned items belong to someone else until they sell. They sit side by side and pay out completely differently.

02

Every item is one of one. Thrift stock never restocks. One sweater is one SKU that exists once, then it's gone. How fast you can take stock in becomes the limit on how much you can sell.

03

Payout day for consignors. Export the sales. Match each one to the right seller. Apply their split. Send the payments one by one. It gets worse with every consignor you add.

04

The floor and the website disagree. Someone buys the only copy at the register. It stays live online for another hour. Now you've sold it twice, and there's no second one to ship.

What is thrift store software?

Thrift store software tracks stock a store doesn't fully own. A thrift or resale store carries donated goods, items bought outright, and consigned items side by side. The software records who owns each one, applies the right split when it sells, and pays the seller.

Does this work with Shopify POS in my thrift store?

Can I track donated and consigned stock in one store?

How do consignor payouts work?

Is this different from a thrift store POS system?
