Our Consignment Policy
The most important part...
You, our consignor, will receive 50% from the proceeds of any items sold. Scallywag’s will retain the other 50% for our efforts to display and sell your items. We will pay you once a month for any of your items sold during the prior month.
And here's how the rest of it works...
We will help you evaluate your items for consignment and accept those items we believe will sell. If you have large items, contact us first at 828-454-1960. We may be able to evaluate them on the basis of your description, a photo, a cushion, etc. If you have many items and we think it's necessary, we'll be glad to come to your home for an on-site evaluation. All items should be clean and gently used. For example, tarnished or dirty items should be polished and/or cleaned in advance. All furniture styles should be reasonably current or otherwise desirable in today's market.
We will work with you to price your merchandise and will display it for a minimum of 90 days. Prices will be reduced by 10% every 30 days and may also be subject to promotional discounts at the discretion of the shop. At the time of consignment, you can indicate to us if you want your merchandise donated should it not sell. In the unlikely event that your merchandise does not sell during the consignment period, you will have 14 days from the end of the consignment period to reclaim your items. This date will be clearly marked on your contract. If you do not reclaim your items they will become the property of Scallywag’s Consignment Furniture. Any item that becomes the shop's property is subject to the disposition by the shop at the shop's discretion.
We hope you'll understand that we don't want to own your items and our space is limited. If you don't retrieve your unsold items, we must have a way to move them out of our store to make room for new merchandise.
If you decide to consign with us, we'll ask you to sign our Consignment Agreement, which puts our consignment policy in the form of a contract.
