NARTS Fall Seminar 2023
Author: Dean
I am a Software Developer, System Administrator, and consignment software specialist. I currently manage hundreds of consignment workstations, point of sale systems, and database servers all across North America and I am the developer of Peeps' Software, Peeps2Go, and Peeps' Consignor Login for iOS and Android.
I've been helping consignment & resale store-owners since 2003. I started The Computer Peeps in February of 2010. Peeps' Software launched in 2016 and is now on hundreds of systems all across North America. I have successfully converted dozens of stores from all of the major consignment software systems.
After 20 years of working with consignment stores, I understand the unique challenges consignment & resale store-owners face. From electrical issues in old buildings or strip malls, to advocating for them when their old consignment software keeps crashing.

ConsignPro and SimpleConsign “Merge”
Yesterday ConsignPro announced it will be “merging” with SimpleConsign and that ConsignPro users will eventually have to transition to SimpleConsign. If you’re a store owner that runs ConsignPro, this post is for you.
If Rebooting Gets Your Tag Printer or Receipt Printer Working, It’s Likely An Electrical Issue
It’s a common problem, but a simple one! If you find your tag printer or receipt printer work fine, then stop working, but when you reboot the tags/receipts spit-out, it is a tell-tale sign that the printers are plugged-in to a power outlet that cannot handle them.
ConsignPro WiFi Cutoff
For consignment stores running ConsignPro, it has announced that ConsignPro will soon no longer run on computers using WiFi.
