What is the consignment period?
All items are consigned for a 60 day period. Any unsold items remaining at the end of the contract period may be picked up within 15 days of the contract’s expiration date. It is your responsibility to track the expiration and final pick up date.
We recommend that you call us or visit our store at least 30 days after you drop off your items to inquire about your items and receive an item list. The item list will show what has sold, what hasn’t sold yet, and your pickup date. Any unsold items not picked up at the end of a consignment period will become the property of Forget Me Nots of Brandon and will be ours to sell, dispose or donate.
How am I paid?
When your items sell, 50% of the final selling price is immediately placed in your account to be used as store credit. On the first of each month, you may pick up a check for sales generated in the previous month.
How are prices set?
Our pricing formula is based on condition, style, finish, color, and, if applicable, what a comparable piece could be purchased for in the current market. The original purchase price and any historical information that you have on the piece are helpful. We also factor in our experience with how similar pieces have sold in the past.
Here at Forget Me Nots of Brandon, we strive to give our consignors a fair return on their items while offering a great value to our shoppers. It is our goal to sell your items within the consignment period; therefore, markdowns will follow a 20% reduction in 30 days (Periodic markdowns and special sales may be applied to your item to ensure a timely sale).
