Etc. Consignment Shoppe sits at 145 Garrison Branch Road in Weaverville, just north of Asheville, and the inventory inside changes enough from week to week that the shop describes the experience as a different store every week. That turnover comes from a dual sourcing model: consignors bring in unwanted clothing, shoes, jewelry, accessories, and home accents for the shop to sell on their behalf, while more than thirty local artisans supply handcrafted goods and locally made foods that fill out the rest of the floor. The result is a shop that functions as part consignment store and part maker’s market under a single roof.
The shop is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., a schedule that gives it a full six-day week without Sunday hours, useful for planning a visit around the Weaverville area’s other weekend errands. Weaverville itself is a small town in the mountains just north of Asheville, known for a walkable Main Street lined with its own mix of shops and restaurants, and Etc. Consignment Shoppe gives visitors to that stretch a reason to detour slightly off Main Street toward Garrison Branch Road for a browse.
The shop’s own tagline, we love local, we love supporting our community, is not just a slogan here since the business model backs it up directly: consignors keep a share of what their items sell for, and the more than thirty artisans stocking the shop are local makers rather than wholesale suppliers, meaning a meaningful share of what a shopper buys stays within the regional economy rather than going to an outside distributor. That combination of secondhand goods and handmade local product under one changing inventory is the shop’s clearest point of difference from a standard thrift or consignment store that deals only in used goods.
Because both the consigned items and the artisan stock rotate on their own schedules, a shopper who visits regularly is likely to see genuinely different merchandise on the shelves each time, rather than the same slow-moving inventory sitting for months. That weekly turnover is part of the draw for regulars in the Asheville and Weaverville area, who treat the shop as a recurring stop worth checking rather than a onetime destination. The shop maintains an active presence on Instagram and Facebook, posting updates on new consignment arrivals and artisan goods as they come in, which gives followers a head start on what to look for before they make the trip out to Garrison Branch Road.
For shoppers looking for consignment and handmade shopping near Asheville, Etc. Consignment Shoppe is a Weaverville storefront open six days a week that pairs secondhand clothing, shoes, jewelry, and home accents with locally made foods and goods from more than thirty area artisans, giving the shop a rotating, community-driven inventory that changes on a near-weekly basis.
