Loading In/Out:
Specific Instructions will be emailed out prior to the event.
Generally, SoapLadz Marketplace allows at least a 2 hour set up/tear down time for each event.
Refunds:
Due to an event cancellation, refunds will be issued as soon as possible. Refunds will not be issued due to vendor cancellation under any circumstances. Those emails will be deleted upon delivery. Let me explain why... Vendors who secure their spot at the SoapLadz Marketplace are vetted against other vendors who apply, meaning taking space from another vendor. For me to replace a vendor who can't make it anymore, adds strain to my system of operation which always comes directly out of advertising efforts.
You may transfer/sell your space to another vendor, however they do still need to be vetted against the collective. Similar vendors will not be a problem. All changes will need to run through me prior to the event. I am reasonable. Send me an email, give me solutions, not problems.
Jurying:
Every vendor will be selected based off availability for the dates chosen and category they apply for. Vendor selection begins by comparing your products to other vendors who have applied and selecting vendors to participate who have unique items for sale. Each category will be capped depending on the number of spaces available to avoid too much competition. Completing your application form in full, with a detailed list of items for sale, and social media/website links, makes this process go much faster.
I also will not promise exclusivity to crafters. Healthy competition makes for a great shopping experience to our customers. Every effort will be made not to place crafters selling similar items near one another.
Payments:
You may make payments by Credit Card, or E-Transfer. All Sales Final. Payments must be made in full, and on time to secure your space.
Invoices:
In the event that you are chosen to be a vendor, an invoice will be issued to you. I will issue invoices for two months of markets at once. These invoices will be set to expire in a few days so that I can move onto my waitlist quickly. Spaces are not confirmed with me until invoices are paid. Please also see my refund policy.
Costs:
$100+HST/Weekend Per Space
Weekends cannot be split up. Please be available both Saturday and Sunday.
