Police say money owed was put back into business, not spent for personal use.
The ReSale 360 investigation has concluded and no criminal charges will be brought against the owners of the store. Fenton Police Chief Rick Aro said officers compiled and reviewed hundreds of transaction records as well as the financial records of the business and gave the evidence to the Genesee County Prosecutor's Office, which determined that the matters raised in the complaints received were not criminal in nature. Police recieved more than 100 complaints from people that said they were owed money or property from the shop that went out of business in March. The disputes surfaced because consignment shop owners and consignors, who bring in items they want to sell, usually split the proceeds from their item sales 50/50 with the store. …

Former ReSale 360 employee will run Twice New Consignments.
A new consignment shop will open June 11 in the former ReSale 360 space on Silver Lake Road. Tanya Bristol and her husband Sebastian have been busy preparing Twice New Consignments after signing a lease for the location last week. Bristol worked at ReSale 360 for more than two years. ReSale 360 closed its doors on March 25 and a police investigation followed because many consignors said the store owners owed them money or property. The disputes arose because consignment shop owners and consignors, who bring in items they want to sell, usually split the proceeds from their item sales 50/50 with the store. Sebastian said they lost a few hundreds dollars in the situation as well. The Fenton Police are still investigating the case. Bristol …

The Genesee County Prosecutor's Office has requested more information from Fenton Police.
A new incident has been added to the more than 100 complaints regarding the ReSale 360 consignment shop that went out of business in March. Fenton Police Chief Rick Aro said a South Lyon resident told police Tuesday she had consigned a glass table and four chairs with the store in January. She reported the item had sold for $225 on March 19 and that owners told her she would received a check for $112, because of a 50/50 agreement on the item. She told police she never received the check, however, and was unaware the store went out of business until recently. Aro said detectives have submitted information on the cases to the Genesee County Prosecutor's Office, which requested some additional investigation from Fenton Police. Aro has said …

Donna Hitz said all remaining items would be donated to charity if not picked up by this weekend.
ReSale 360 owner Donna Hitz said consignors need to make arrangements to pick up items the Fenton store by Saturday, or they will be donated charity.

The number of complaints from residents stating they are owed money or property has increased to more than 80, police said.

Donna Hitz said all she can do is give people their things back.
ReSale 360 owner Donna Hitz has continued to return merchandise to consignors and hopes to have most of the items out of the store by Saturday. On Thursday, Hitz met with a Fenton couple that gathered two carloads of items. She also had to tell a consignor at the door looking to claim an item that it had been sold and she didn’t have the funds to refund the money. “There is nothing more I can do than give things back,” Hitz said. She said she has gathered as many items as possible and many of people’s collections are ready to pick up. Consignors are asked to email Donna.Hitz@Gmail.com to make an appointment. Hitz said she has an account of every transaction made in the store and a list of every consignor’s items. Those items are spread out…
