Consignment Software and POS-X Equipment
POS-X manufactures POS equipment in the USA (Bellingham, WA). Their barcode scanners, cash drawers and receipt printers are compatible with Best Consignment Software. (They do not provide label printers.)
Shipping: POS-X equipment is delivered in 2-5 business days with 2-to-5-year warranties. There is no sales tax (except TX).
Consignment Software and Barcode Scanners
Today's barcode scanners are 1D (one dimensional) and 2D (two dimensional). The former reads standard barcodes while 2D reads 1D and QR codes. Either can be used with Best Consignment Software. Driver licenses can also be scanned to populate a new-client record.
Consignment Software and Cash Drawers
Cash Drawer (Till) vs. Cash Register
A cash drawer is a secure compartment used to store currency. A cash register combines a cash drawer with additional functionality for processing sales and printing receipts.
The Best Consignment Software + a receipt printer and cash drawer can replace a cash register and perform all standard register functions including receipt printing.
Apex Pro Cash Drawer: Price: $133 (standard) or $183 (with direct PC connection). Connects to receipt printer and opens automatically when receipts print.
Consignment Software and Thermal Receipt Printers
The ION Thermal 2 Receipt Printer (5 x 6 x 6, $284) is a 'silent' jam-free thermal printer which prints 1 or more copies of 1-ply RECEIPTS (not price labels). Font size and density can be changed. Messages and logos can be printed.
Is a Receipt Printer Necessary? Because most consignment stores have a "No Return" policy, many owners choice to save the $284 cost by using the built-in Resell4.me invoice printed to a laser printer for the occasional customer request.
Thermal Label Printers
Resell4.me prints 2" to 4"-wide horizontal thermal labels (adhesive labels and non-adhesive hang tags) using the TSC DA210 series.
Resell4.me System Requirements
Resell4.me is cloud-based, so there's no specific processor, RAM, or disk space requirement to worry about. It runs in any modern web browser — Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox — on any internet-connected device, including Windows and Mac desktops, laptops, tablets, and phones.

Frequently Asked Questions
What hardware do I need for a consignment shop POS?
A complete consignment shop POS setup with Resell4.me typically includes a barcode scanner, receipt printer, cash drawer, and label printer. Resell4.me is compatible with most standard POS-X hardware including barcode scanners (1D and 2D), the Apex Pro Cash Drawer, the ION Thermal 2 Receipt Printer, and the TSC DA210 label printer series.
What are the computer requirements for Resell4.me consignment software?
Resell4.me is cloud-based, so there's no specific processor, RAM, or disk space requirement — it runs in any modern web browser (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox) on any internet-connected device, including Windows and Mac desktops, laptops, tablets, and phones.
Do I need a receipt printer for my consignment shop?
Not necessarily. Many consignment shops use a standard laser printer to print invoices on 8.5 x 11 paper instead of a dedicated receipt printer. However, a thermal receipt printer like the ION Thermal 2 ($284) provides faster, jam-free silent printing and is recommended for higher-volume shops.
How much does Resell4.me consignment software cost?
Resell4.me starts at $49/month for Essentials (or $1,470 as a one-time payment) and $89/month for Professional (or $2,670 one-time). Hardware bundles are available that include a barcode scanner, cash drawer, and receipt printer — with no sales tax outside of Texas and no shipping charge on qualifying hardware packages.
Are barcode scanners compatible with Resell4.me?
Yes. Most standard 1D and 2D barcode scanners work with Resell4.me. Resell4.me also supports driver license scanning to auto-populate new client records. POS-X branded scanners manufactured in Bellingham, WA are verified compatible and backed by 2-to-5-year warranties.
