Consignment Made Easy: Policy & Form | Nest & Sprout, Prince George
Consignment Options
You have three choices for your items:
-
Buyout: Receive 20-30% upfront in store credit. For smaller batches with a buyout value of up to $100, e-transfers may also be available.
-
Commission: Earn 40% after the item sells.
-
Donation: Items go to charity.
Items remain listed indefinitely unless renewed or sold. After 12 weeks, you can choose a buyout (20-30%) or renew the consignment term.
Commission Rates
Consignors earn 40% of the selling price. Choose between a 40% payout via electronic transfer or 40% + 10% as store credit.
Responsibility for Unsold Items
Picking up unsold items is your responsibility. To avoid items being considered abandoned and becoming the property of Nest & Sprout, you must arrange pickup by the date specified in your contract by contacting shop@nestandsprout.ca.
Item Drop-Offs
Drop-offs can be made monthly. You may bring one diaper box of items per drop-off, typically 20-40 items or two reusable bags. All items must be in a box or tote labeled with your full name and contact information. The drop-off location will be provided after you agree to the terms and conditions.
