OUR SERVICES
"How do you price my items?"
Consignment is a partnership, and we strive to get you the highest possible price for your merchandise. However, it is in everyone's best interest to price items at a fair market value that will realistically sell within 30 days. When all is said and done, it is market response to an item that truly "sets the price." If an item doesn't sell within 30 days, it will be reduced by 10% and each month thereafter items will be reduced another 10% up to 40% off.
"How long is the consignment period?"
The consignment period is discussed between the consignor and myself. Should an item of more than $75 not be sold at the end of 110 days, we will donate it to charity and give you the blank tax receipt.
"When do I get paid and how much?"
You receive 50% of the agreed-upon selling price; COTS (The Court of Two Sisters) does all the work. Best of all, your proceeds are automatically mailed to you on at the end of each month for the previous month’s sales along with an itemized list of what sold.
"Will you pick up my furniture?"
Yes, your pickup will be handled by COTS or a licensed, bonded moving company. All of these fees will be discussed and confirmed at the time the pick up is set. Pick-ups usually can happen within 1-4 days of calling.
"May I bring my furniture to you?"
We accept drop-offs by appointment. Please bring in your quote. The quote is what you receive when you show us pictures and give us the history of your items. To schedule, please call 727-934-9255.
"What Type of Furniture Do You Consign?"
We take gently, and lovingly used pieces of furniture and accessories. Some items we are looking to consign are lamps, art, and mid century to modern furniture. What we don't want:
