    Rachel, totally up to you, but I wouldn't even ask if they
    wholesale. 

    Most galleries that I contact I assume that they purchase instead of
    consign. I would much rather sell then consign. And, I think if they
    are consignment only they'll let you know up front. If they consign
    only then I consider based on my current workload & cash flow, where
    they are located and probably #1- who else do they have on
    consignment? Do they have other designers that are well-known? 

    Consignment is hard to control especially if you are not local.
    Still 

    can't get a call back from the store in Jersey that has my items on
    consignment. They've had them since Dec and I haven't received a
    check yet!
