There is no fine print or legal-ese. We want to be as open and honest about the process as possible.
The contract states:

Acceptance of terms and items agreed upon is final by MT. Adjustment will be made every 30 days to sell items. After 6 months merchandise is owned by MT. MT reserves the right to ask consignor to pick up merchandise. A telephone call is considered proper notice with 10 days to remove, or merchandise is now owned by MT. MT or it's employees shall Not be liable for theft or damage to consigned merchandise. Unsold merchandise consignment fee increases by 10% after 3 months until sold or disposed of. There will be a fee for cleaning or repair. Terms are subject to a 4% charge if customer pays by credit card. Items under $5.00 will not be split.
Consignment is for 6 months. If it sells for under $150.00, you will keep 40% of the purchase price. If it sells for over $150.00, you will keep 60% of the purchase price. We do not split comission for items under $5.00. We price your item by finding comparables online. If your item doesn't sell after 3 months, we may reduce the price in order to get it sold for you. If your item is purchased with a credit card, a 4% fee will come off your commission. If your item doesn't sell, at the end of 6 months, it is your responsibility to pick up your item, or it becomes store property. Checks are written once a month. If you have more than $20.00 owing to you, we mail the check to the address we have on file for you. You will receive a list of the items that were sold for the month. There is a $1.00 fee to cover the cost of postage and the paperwork.

We take a wide range of marine parts as well as home decor with a nautical/tropical theme. The main concern is that it is in good condition. From time to time, we may discourage certain items if we already have an abundance at the store.
We cannot take flares. We no longer take books or old electronics. We also don't take sails or boat specific cushions. Home décor items must have a nautical/tropical theme. When in doubt, just give us a call and ask. Also keep in mind, items sold under $5 will not be split for commission as they are too labor intensive and costly to research, price & mark. You are welcome to bring them, just know they won't be included in your inventory.
If the amount owed to you is more than $25, you will be mailed a check. We write and mail checks around the 7th of each month. You can always stop in and ask if any items have sold. If it's less than $25, we will pay you in cash (as long as the item was sold more than 5 days prior due to our return policy), or you can use as store credit.
Yes. Please call and set up a time to drop off your items. While we may be able to take a few items on a walk-in basis, we have limited space and resources, so we need to know ahead what and how much is coming in. Your items won't sell if we can't get them on the floor. Also, if you are bringing a large amount of items, we may not be able to do a detailed list at that time. We can email you a complete list after we have itemized and priced your items. You are encouraged to do your own inventory.
We reserve the right for final say in what we will list your item for, but getting good value for your item is a win-win for both of us. That said, our main goal is to get your item sold, and some money in your pocket. We search the internet for comparables and price items for less than what we can find, taking into account the condition of the item. If you have a minimum you will take for your item, please discuss with us when dropping it off. You are welcome to do your own research and bring us your items list with suggested pricing.
