Consignment Policy & Pricing

Payment Policy – We are proud to announce that we offer more to the consignee than most consignment stores.
  • The Consignor will receive 50% of the selling price if the item is sold within the 30-day consignment period.
  • All Consignors must complete and sign a Consignor Agreement before their first consignment. The Consignor Agreement sets terms and conditions related to consigning items.
  • Only unsold items priced at $50 or more are eligible for return to the Consignor.
  • Unsold items priced at $50.00 or more may be withdrawn by the Consignor only within the 30 day consignment period.
  • Funds owing must be picked up within 180 days of the consigned item’s sale.
  • Funds not collected within the 180 day period will be considered a donation to the May Court Club of Oakville.
  • The May Court Nearly New Shop is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
  • Consignors are responsible for monitoring their accounts.
General Consignment Policy Information – Please Read
  • Upon inspection, items will be priced by Nearly New Shop volunteers with input from the consignor.
  • Items are consigned for a 30-day period.  The End Date is printed on your Consigned Items summary form receipt. Make note of that date.
  • Items may be removed from the floor if they are found to be unacceptable at a later date. (sometimes our staff may miss stains, etc.)  You will be notified by phone to pick up your item.
  • Items not sold within the 30 day consignment period become the property of The Nearly New Shop. After the initial 30-day consignment period, prices are reduced by 50% and profits of all sold items go to supported charities and our Scholarship Program.

If you have any questions, please contact the May Court Nearly New Shop.
