Thank you for considering us for your
consignment needs! Here's how we work:
Terms
of Contract (Updated)
1.
Consignor
split is based on the actual SELLING price of the items and are as follows:
a.
$1 - $49 = 40% consignor / 60% store
b. $50 - $99 = 45%
consignor / 55% store
c.
$100 -
$199 = 50% consignor / 50% store
d. $200 and up = 60%
consignor / 40% store
2.
Items are
kept in the store for 60 days and are subject to donation after the 60th
day. All items are subject to
discretionary markdowns anytime during the consignment period. There is no set markdown policy. Expired items are either donated to charity
or sold in charity sales in which all proceeds are donated to charity. If consignor wishes to pick up unsold items,
it is the consignor’s responsibility to keep up with his/her account and
contract end dates. Items should be
picked up prior to the expiration date. The obligation to find a consignor’s
items on the floor belongs solely to the consignor. No exceptions.
3. Consignments are accepted Monday-Saturday and must be in at least an hour before closing time. Consignors
have two options for dropping off items:
·
Drop
& Run – Consignor will leave items at the store to be processed. All items will be assessed and processed and
accepted items will be distributed to the appropriate store for optimal selling
potential. Unaccepted items are donated
charity and no tax receipt is available.
·
Stay
& Wait– Consignor will wait in the store while items are assessed.
Unaccepted items will be returned immediately, accepted items will be processed offsite and then will return to this location for their consignment period. Drop-offs must be within the
25 item limit, and arrive on hangers at least an hour before closing. Accepted items with major flaws found upon
further inspection will be donated to charity and no tax receipt is
available.
4.
Jewelry is
not consigned unless valued at $100 or more.
All other jewelry is bought outright at 20% of the resale price. All jewelry is assessed and processed
off-site to ensure proper re-sale value is established. Once jewelry items have been assessed,
consignor will be contacted with an offer for the items Finders Keepers intends
to purchase. This offer may be accepted
or declined and all unaccepted items will be returned if desired. Jewelry purchases are limited to 25 pieces at
a time and jewelry for consideration may be dropped off any time the store is
open.
5.
Checks are
mailed the first week of each month for accounts with a balance exceeding
$40. Twice a year checks are mailed for
accounts with a balance exceeding $20. Each mailed check will incur a $1 mailing
fee. Consignor may check account any time during regular store hours, and may
pick up any available balance during regular store hours.
6.
There is a
$12 annual fee to be a consignor, and it includes 24/7 online consignor account access. Items are subject to a standard markdown
process as well as sales, discretionary markdowns, item fees, and buyer's
fees. Buyer fees are taken prior to
computing the consignor split.
7.
Finders
Keepers is not responsible for damaged, missing, or stolen merchandise. Items
deemed inauthentic (“fake” or “knock-off”) are immediately removed from the premises.
Damaged items are immediately donated. Items under either circumstance are not
available for return to consignor and a tax receipt is not available.
Any and all consignment rules are subject to change. Our
partnership is based on mutual respect. Consignors who become adversarial with
the staff of Finders Keepers will have their consignment accounts closed.
Please do not be offended if we do not accept your items as our skilled staff
must rely on past and present experience to determine what will sell in our
store.
