Question 5

How does vendor booth rental work?

Accepted Answer

You rent a dedicated booth space inside Kinfolk Marketplace. You bring in your own inventory, self-tag every item with your vendor number and price, and arrange your booth. When items sell, Kinfolk processes the sale and tracks your earnings. You receive 65% of every sale, and Kinfolk retains 35% as the marketplace fee.

How much does it cost to rent a booth?

Accepted Answer

Booth rental is offered bi-weekly at $37.50 (per 2-week period) or monthly at $100 (per 4-week period). Payment is made via Venmo. You also keep 65% of all sales, making this one of the most vendor-friendly consignment arrangements in the Chicago suburbs.

Question 7

What commission does Kinfolk keep?

Accepted Answer

Kinfolk Marketplace retains 35% of each sale as a marketplace fee. You keep 65%. This is significantly more favorable than traditional consignment shops, which typically keep 40–60% of the sale price.

Question 8

How do I tag my items?

Accepted Answer

Kinfolk uses a self-tagging system. Once you are set up as a vendor, you will receive your unique vendor number. You create tags for each item that include your vendor number, item description, size (if applicable), and price. Detailed tagging instructions are provided when you book your booth.

Question 10

What kinds of items can I find at Kinfolk Marketplace?

Accepted Answer

Kinfolk Marketplace is home to a rotating mix of pre-loved clothing, vintage fashion, handmade jewelry and accessories, home goods, books, art prints, and curated lifestyle products. Because our vendors are independent sellers, the inventory changes regularly — no two visits are exactly the same.

Question 12

What are Fill-A-Bag events?

Accepted Answer

Fill-A-Bag events are special sale days where shoppers pay a flat rate — typically $25 or $30 — for a bag and then fill it with as many items as they can fit. It is one of our most popular recurring events and a great way to refresh your wardrobe on a budget. Follow our Instagram or check our events page to find out when the next one is scheduled.
