​
At Mekko Market & Cafe Adelaide, our goal is to make sure your rent a rack experience is as good as possible. Please read carefully our terms and conditions below:
​
​
IMPORTANT READ:
​
Mekko started as a love for sustainable fashion. It’s a new way of selling your preloved clothes and we get over 3000+ garments through our doors each week.
Some of the items might accidentally travel from one stall to another and the staff will do their best to return everything back to their original stall. This doesn't mean these items won't be on sale. As long as they are in store, customers are able to buy them.
​
Stall holders will get 10 x complimentary security tags at the start of the rack rental and we strongly advise you to use them. If you require more you can rent them for $0.25 per security tag. Please do not leave expensive handbags and shoes on your racks. We have a locked cabinet for these items and it can be booked for 6 days (complimentary rental, 25% commission applies). Please note all items that are brought in the store to sell, are at stall holder's own risk.
It’s important to know that even though we do our best that your clothes are safe with us, Mekko Market takes no responsibility if an item is lost/stolen/damaged whilst in our premises or if there is a fire, water damage or other factors undependable on us.

When you book your stall, we will email you a link to an online app with your username and password. Here you will create your product sheets (price tags) that are barcoded. and you can either print the A4 sized paper sheet at home or you can pop in to Mekko and we can print them for you. This must be done at least a day prior of your rack rental starting as the clothes need to be price tagged at home.. Price tags are to be attached to the label of the garment located on the back neck with safety pins. You can find a package of 50 safety pins at Foodland, IGA & Drakes for apprx $3. If you require few extra safety pins when refilling your rack etc, we have some at our market. If you have shoes or handbags etc. attach the tags anywhere where they can be easily seen. With shoes, sticky tape works best.

DURING YOUR RACK RENTAL​
​
-
Please come in every few days to refill your rack. You can follow your sales through our online app.
-
It is up to the stall holder to look after the rack (tidying up etc.)
-
If you want to discount your whole rack with a certain percentage, for example -30% off on all items for your last 2 days of rental, please do so via your Zellr account (via browser, not app) and please let us know by calling and we can place a discount signage on your rack. Please note these discounts carry on to your next rental automatically, and if you don't want to continue with the discount, you can change the discount percentage back to '0'. Please note only one discount percentage per booking is allowed.
-
If you only have few items you want to discount, we recommend you to print new price tags for the items you want to discount. Please note we don't accept any handwritten discounted price tags. If you wish, you can write for example 'was $50' with a texter next to the new price to make it more visible for shoppers that the item has been discounted.
