I was unhappy with the quote they gave me and wouldn't do it again. If they decide they don't want your things they say they will donate it (though I've seen a few my items listed that they said they would donate but didnt pay me) or you can pay to have them return it. I'd be cautious.
If you have more high end items I'd use the Realreal. Otherwise donate and take the tax write off.

Another family member handled the consignment of my late sister's wardrobe. Her closet was mostly high end designer (the level of St. John, Chanel, Max Mara, Manolo Blahnik). I believe Poshmark and RealReal were the online places used and also a couple of local consignment shops. We had decided that any profits were to be put away in a nest egg for two young neices. I'm not sure how much, but I understand the results were good.
Please note that we did donate many of her things to a local resell shop which benefits a charitable cause. This was the off the rack clothes, accessories and some fashion jewelry. It was reported to back to me in a subsequent visit to the store that her things sold out fast and I believe my sister would have been very pleased about this. She loved her fashions, but she was also was a very caring person.

you won't get too much, but it might be worth it vs. chucking in the donation box
