What is consignment?
Consignment involves the selling of merchandise while ownership remains with the original owner. When we sell your furniture for you, you receive a percentage of the final sale price.
What are the consignment terms?
Consignment Seekers pays the consignor 50% of the item's sale price. Consignment Seekers Commission for handling the sale is the remaining 50%.
For items to remain in the store after this point, a special agreement must be made between Consignment Seekers and the consignor.
Items without a formal extended agreement, must be picked-up or will become the property of Consignment Seekers.
Commission checks are issued for the prior month's sales on the 20th of each month. Checks that are not picked up at the store are mailed at the end of each month.
Credit card charges and moving expenses will be deducted from sales price prior to 50/50 split.
How long does it take to sell item at Consignment Seekers?
Most items sell within three weeks
Do you accept antiques?
Yes, we accept antique style furniture so long as it is in good condition.
Is there any furniture that you don't accept?
We do not accept ripped, torn, or furniture that is damaged. We also do not accept outdated furniture due to the small demand for these styles of furnishings. Otherwise, we are open to all types of furniture styles, including antiques.
Will you come and pick up my furniture?
Yes, we can arrange to have your items picked up for a fee. That fee will be deducted from the total sale price prior to the 50/50 split.
Will you repair my furniture?
Unfortunately, we do not repair furniture. All furniture must be in 100% functioning order before we will agree to sell it for you. We do not accept damaged pieces.
How about buying the item outright from me, can you do that?
Yes we can. Please keep in mind that there is a larger chance of receiving more money if you sell with us through consignment.
Can I trust you with my furniture?
All of our customers and consigners are treated with care, respect, and professionalism. With our extensive experience in business, you have every reason to feel comfortable leaving your furniture in our hands.
