Consignment FAQs
After your items have been reviewed and prices have been established on accepted pieces, we will schedule your delivery date. If you are happy with your price quote, email scheduling@grandviewmercantile.com to make arrangements with our team. At your request, we will provide a list of recommended, bonded and insured moving companies. It is the consignor’s responsibility to bring their items into the store.
We highly recommend that you use a professional mover, but if you prefer to deliver the items yourself, please email us to schedule a delivery date and time.
Our consignment team will only accept items detailed in the final inventory list, confirmed the day before pickup. Additional items can only be accepted with the approval of one of our consignment managers. Please submit photos of these additional items to info@grandviewmercantile.com within 72 business hours of your appointment, and we will try to accommodate your request. Unapproved items will be sent back with the professional movers at the consignor’s expense.
Once you have decided that you are going to use our services, please give us as much notice as possible so that we can schedule a delivery time that meets your needs and fits our schedule. We will make every effort to accommodate emergencies or special circumstances. Please note that you must have a confirmed appointment for drop-offs.
For the first fifteen days of the consignment period, items are sold at their starting price. If the item has not sold after fifteen days, then we discount it by 10%. If the item still has not sold after thirty days then it is discounted by an additional 10%. This progressive discount will continue for the duration of the 90-day consignment period.
The only exception to this would be if a customer makes an offer on your item. These offers are tendered to you personally via phone or email so that you have the option to accept or counter the offer.
You will receive 50% of the final selling price, less credit card fees if applicable. For large consignments, please contact one of our consignment managers.
Checks to consignors are issued monthly. Sales from one month will be paid on the 15th of the following month. For example, any sales that are made during January will be paid out by February 15th. Checks will be mailed to the address on file unless you make special pick up arrangements.
In the case of a large consignment, such as a house full of items, the next step is to make an appointment for one of our consignment managers to come to your home and review what you wish to sell. We will then prepare a formal write-up that gives you suggested retail pricing and projected selling prices based on historical data. Send us an email at info@grandviewmercantile.com to get started.
What People Are Saying
"Grandview Mercantile Company stands head and shoulders above any other purveyor of previously owned merchandise. Every item is displayed to its best advantage. The furniture is dust-free. Silver, brass, and copper are polished, if appropriate for the piece. Crystal is brilliant. Art is curated, to the extent possible, and many of the better items have descriptive text on their price cards."
