Bring your Stuff – No Appointment is Necessary
- We request a 24 hour notice prior to delivery of large furniture to ensure we have adequate space. We accept consignments from 10:30 – 4:00 p.m. Mon – Sat and 11:30 – 4:00 p.m. on Sunday. The consignment period is thirty (30) or sixty (60) or ninety (90) days.
- We perform an initial screening of your consignment when you bring it in. You may experience a short wait.
- Items we are unable to help you sell we call No Thank You’s (NTY’s) We retain the right to decline items for consignment based on current inventory levels, your asking price or past experience and display them as we think best.
Choose your Contract Period
- 30 Day – No discount unless you authorize a reduction before your contract ends. You will have 5 days to pick up your items.
- 60 Day – 1st 30 days no discount unless authorized. 2nd 30 days your items will be reduced by fifteen percent (15%) of original price. After 60 days you will have 5 grace days to pick up unsold item(s).
- 90 Day – 1st 30 days: No discount.
2nd 30 days: 15% reduction.
3rd 30 days: additional 15% - Total 30% off original price.
After 90 days you will have 5 grace days to pick up any unsold items.
No matter what contract period you choose, you will have only 5 days grace period to pick up any unsold items. After that period of time, any items not picked up will become the property of RHSA and we will dispose of the items as we see fit.
Determine the Price – You Set the Selling Price or Authorize Us to Price.
If you authorize us to price your items you may not assume any item will be sold for what you may feel it is worth. We do our best based on our experience to price your items fairly. However, pricing is subjective. What we feel your item(s) may be worth may not coincide with yours.
When Your Consignment Ends
- We provide retrieving consignors five (5) days from the end of their consignment to pickup unsold items they want returned. It is your responsibility to track the expiration date of your consignment(s).
- We offer you a courtesy reminder card. We will not call or contract you to remind you when it expires. After the five day grace period the unsold, unclaimed items become our property. We are very regular and timely in disposing of unclaimed goods. We have very little storage space.
- Retrieving consignors are solely responsible for located and retrieving from the sales floor.
- Consignors that arrive early to pick up their goods prior to the end of their consignment period must locate, pack and remove their items from the sales floor themselves and forfeit the option of filing a courtesy Customer Service inquiry on any goods they were unable to locate. We will not look for them for you.
- Unsold items may be brought back one more time after a thirty day absence.
- Donating consignor goods are automatically removed from the sales floor anywhere from the last day of the consignment until seven days afterwards. It depends on where the expiration date falls in our weekly ‘pull’ schedule of expired goods.
Pick Up Your Money
- Consignors earn 70% of the listed selling price on furniture / household goods and 50% on any items period under $20.00.
- Payment for sold or expired consignments is made at the end of the consignment period on the 10th of every month.
- We will hold your funds for ninety (90) days from the expiration of your consignment. Unclaimed funds over ninety (90) days become our property.
