CONSIGNMENT IS EASY!

You receive all the benefits -- we do all the work! When we receive your items, you will be given a detailed contract. It is a 4-month contract with a 50/50 split. Your consigned items are reduced by 25% every 30 days. We've been building a strong customer base for over 21 years, so the majority of our merchandise sells within 30 days.

You will receive a check for 50 percent of the selling price along with an itemized statement. All checks are printed and mailed the month after your items sell. As a consignor, you can email us at anytime to find out the status of your items. You can help us by "liking" our facebook page and sharing with all your friends.

You may opt out of your contract at the end of the 25% markdown period. Contact us if you would like your items returned to you. You may pick them up or we can bring them back to you for a delivery charge of $75. After 4 months, any unsold or unclaimed items will become the property of Classic Treasures. We donate to Durham Rescue Mission, Pennies for Change, or Habitat for Humanity supporting our community and helping those in need.
