• What is Les Passees Stock Exchange?

The Les Passees major fundraiser, Stock Exchange, is held every fall for six weeks as an up-scale consignment store for home furnishings. The Stock Exchange features furniture, paintings, rugs, china, jewelry and beautiful decorative items for the home. Member volunteers accept items for consignment from over 1,000 different consignors, and they set up and run the store. Generous commercial property partnerships afford the club retail space, but that space may change every year. Stay in touch to see where Stock Exchange will be this fall.

• Where will the next Stock Exchange be held?

Because Les Passees relies on commercial partnerships for store space, the announcement about this year’s store will be made as soon as possible. For 30 years, Stock Exchange has been held in the fall. Watch the Les Passees website and Facebook page to keep informed about the location and important dates.

• What portion of sales does Stock Exchange keep?

Les Passees Stock Exchange accepts consignment of a variety of upscale household items with a 30/70 split. The 30 percent share for Les Passees stays in Memphis to benefit the club’s current projects. Review the Consignment Contract for more details. All consignors set prices for their merchandise. Les Passees reserves the right to refuse consignment of any item at any time. Payments for items sold are completed by check within a few weeks of store closing.
