010224 Happy New Year & 20% Off The Entire Store!

 

Happy New Year!

Thank you to all of you who have emailed, texted, called and come in the store to show your support.  It means the world to me and my amazing staff!

I am still looking for warehouse/storage space for my eBay inventory.  I am looking for about 1,000 square feet with a small office in front.   Thanks for any help!

Here is a photo of what my office and warehouse space looked like in Palm Desert.  Would love to have something similar so that y’all can stop by and visit!

Just so you know, we plan to be open until the end of January.  Our last day will be January 31st.

The sale continues!  20% off until Sunday, January 7th.  Entire store is on sale EXCLUDING Fixtures and the brown sofa in the beachy room that just came in.   NO EXTRA discount on Fixtures:

The Promen Wooden Hangers in the Clothing Store are all for sale at $2 each or you can get 10 for $15.

9′ Christmas Trees are $295each
7′ Christmas Trees are $195 each

I will be pricing more fixtures as we go.

Don’t miss out!  You don’t want what happened to Corner Cabinet Karen to happen to you…….

For those of you who don’t know the Corner Cabinet Karen saga, one of our good customers came back to buy a corner cabinet on the day of it’s markdown and someone else had just bought it!

Once again, here are the details of the closing process for my consignors.

122823 Thank You For The LOVE Ventura!

 

Thank you to all of you who have emailed, texted, called and come in to show your support.  It means the world to me and my amazing staff!  Ventura is the most special little city in the World!

It seems like the store will be missed and I am just wondering if there is anyone out there who would be interested in taking over my lease (a great rate has been negotiated) and buy out my fixtures.  I am hoping for a Miracle on Main Street. You just never know.

Also, I will need warehouse/storage space for my eBay inventory.  I am looking for about 600 square feet.  Thanks for any help!

There are not any new arrivals this week, but I will share a fun photo that Susan took of us yesterday.  My son’s girlfriend, Emma, and her mom Adrianne came to visit the store.  It is still a super fun environment and we are smiling through this process.  Please come in and see us!

122623 It Is With A Heavy Heart That I Write This Email…..

 

I am reaching out to you as a valued customer and consignor.

Almost six years ago, I moved to Ventura to be closer to my children and open up a consignment store.  It had been a lifelong dream for me and Lynn’s Consignments was born on March 1, 2018.

With your help, we filled up a 4,000 square foot space with beautiful and unique furniture.  I couldn’t have done it without you all.

The city welcomed us with open arms and for many of you, Lynn’s Consignments, became a weekly shopping destination.

As we all know, Covid hit in 2020 and disrupted all of our lives.  We managed to pull through and life returned to normal.  Sadly, after a bit of a boom, sales have leveled out to what seems to be a new “normal” for Lynn’s and many other retail establishments.  This new “normal” is not enough to sustain a store of this size and make it profitable.

With a heavy heart, I am announcing that I will be closing the store in the near future.

I am forever grateful to all of you who have consigned with me and to those of you who have shopped my store.

I also want to thank my incredible staff who have worked to bring you a unique and fun shopping experience.  I could not have done it without you.

My staff, many of my consignors and customers have become family to me and I will continue to cherish our friendships long after this chapter has closed.

This has been an incredibly difficult decision for me.  Here are the details of the closing process for my consignors.
