CONSIGNING

We will select from your items what we believe our customers will buy. Sometimes there will be items we cannot accept. Please understand that our customers’ preferences, safety regulations & restrictions, and seasonal factors influence our selection criteria. We will input your items into our system then send you a report via email which will detail the items on consignment and their price. We will display your items for a period of 90 days. We may choose to shorten or extend an item’s consignment due to condition, season and demand for the item. Every effort will be made to get your items on the sales floor as quickly as possible, but sometimes there are unforeseen delays due to volume, space, need & demand. Your consignment period will be extended accordingly to account for any delays.

PRICING

We base our prices on supply and demand, the item's condition and what our research shows the market will bear. We will strive to get the best possible selling prices for you. We will establish the price of each item for you or you can let us know your desired price at the time of consignment. You can always let us know if you would like the price of any item adjusted. A $.50 handling charge will be added to all items priced at $10.00 or more and is paid by the buyer at the time of purchase. The selling price may be reduced by 20% after the first 4 weeks, and by 50% at the eight week point as deemed necessary. Additional markdowns depend on the condition, season and demand for the item. We will also hold normal periodic sales and any merchandise in stock is subject to these sales.

PAYMENT

You can choose to be paid in cash or to apply your proceeds as store credit. Consignors are compensated as follows:

• Non-apparel items (gear, furniture, toys, equipment, etc.): you will receive 50% of the sales price if you wish to be paid in cash— or 55% if you wish to have your proceeds applied as store credit
