How Consignment WorksConsignment is simply a way for a person to sell their used items. The items are given to a consignment store, which markets and sells the items. The consignment store and the seller split the sale proceeds.
Consignment stores are beneficial to the seller, the buyer, the consignment store and the community. Sellers receive cash or store credit for their unused items. Buyers receive quality, gently used items at a fraction of their retail cost new. The store benefits by marketing and selling the items. The community benefits by having a marketplace to buy and sell affordable quality, gently used items. It's a form of recycling which benefits the environment too.
