How to consign your unique items with us
What is consignment?
Consignment is a no-hassle way to sell your unique indie products on a larger scale. You send items to Never Ender, we take photos of them, put them in our store (and take care of selling them). We do all the work marketing and selling your items so you have more time for making new ones.
What are the benefits of selling this way?
Since we don't pay for items outright, we have less overhead which means more money for advertising. This also enables us to have a larger variety of your items rather than just the one or two styles. Selling on consignment also makes you more money because the percentage you take home is more than selling wholesale.
How much does it cost and what is that money used for?
When an items sells Never Ender takes 40% of the original price. The remaining 60% of each item sold will be sent to you via check on the 5th day of the following month.
We spend a lot of time photographing, marketing and selling your items so a portion of the money we make pays us for our time. The rest pays for business licenses, rent, packing materials, and other bills.
When and how do I get paid?
We write checks on the 5th of each month for sales the month prior. If the balance is less than $20, the amount will roll over to the following month.
What kinds of items are you looking for?
We are looking for creative, unique, well made clothing, accessories and artwork. We like items that are biodegradable, organic, eco friendly and made from recycled products, but we don't discriminate against items that aren't.
What if my items don't sell?
We will keep all items we accept for a minimum of 60 days. After 60 days we will assess how things are going and discuss with you where we want to go from there. If an item isn't selling, we can talk about lowering the price.
Do I need a business license, logo, etc?
If you don't have a logo we can work with you to design one. You don't need any sort of license, but we recommend claiming all monies made and pay taxes on them using a 1099 form at tax time.
How can I trust you, I have never even met you?
We have had a brick and mortar store for 7 years and in that time have earned the trust of many consignors and the support of many customers. Our consignment agreement is legally binding and we take full responsibility for your items while they are in our possession. Our relationships are very important to us and we strive to make sure all of our consignors and customers are happy. If you are still concerned, contact us and ask any questions you may have. We can even get you in contact with some of our consignors so you can go over your concerns with them.
Why were my items not chosen?
Its nothing personal, there are many reasons why we may not chose certain items. If we have too much inventory, if we have similar items already, if the price is too high for our market, or if the style just doesn't fit with our style. Feel free to continue to submit your new items, sometimes it really is just not the right time.
Sounds good, now what?
Please send us an email to Neverenderreno{at}yahoo.com with your name, contact info, a little about yourself and a description and photos of your items. If we think your items are something we'd like to sell, we will contact you as soon as we can. Since we are busy, we are only able to respond to artists whom we accept. |
