Consignment Policy
Consignments are accepted Tuesday through Friday during regular business hours. Appointments are not required, but please call ahead so we can be ready for you. We will be happy to take up to 20 items per consignor per week.
A contract must be completed before items are accepted. We will also make a copy of your driver's license or identification for our file.
The consignment period is 90 days, and consignors receive 50% of the final selling price. Payout checks (*) are mailed no later than the 10th of the month for account balances of $10 or more generated from the previous month's sales.
If an item has not been sold at the end of 30 days, the price is reduced by 10%. If the item has not sold at the end of 60 days, it is reduced by another 15%.
Any item remaining unsold at the end of the 90 day contract period must be claimed within 14 days of the contract expiration date or it will become property of Second Wind Consignments. Unsold, forfeited inventory may be sold at a twice-yearly sale and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to a charity of local interest.
We reserve the right to refuse to consign any item which does not meet our requirements.
Exceptions are at our discretion.
(*) All payout checks will be mailed to the address on your account. Please make sure your information is kept current if you have a change of address. We will be happy to issue a replacement for a check not received or lost. However, a stop-payment fee of $20.00 will be charged and deducted from the replacement check.
