Here is how the consignment process works:
- Email us pictures of the furniture items you would like us to consider. Please include any information you have such as manufacturer, age and price paid. You can email your information KCGallery@cox.net . If you have small items, we encourage you to bring them into the store to be evaluated by one of our team members. We take consignments Monday through Saturday from 10:30 am until 3pm. No appointment is necessary.
- We will review your items and let you know (usually within 24 hours of) whether or not we would have a market for your pieces. We then schedule a date for you to bring your furniture into the store.
- If needed, we can recommend efficient and reasonably priced movers to transport your items to our gallery.
- Once your item is in the store, we will suggest appropriate selling prices and, with your approval, write up a 90-day agreement.
- Your items will be showcased appropriately in one of our vignettes and our professional sales team will take over from there. Our show room is in excess of 8,500 square feet and is frequented by regular customers and interior designers alike.
- Once your item is sold you will receive your proceeds after our commission. All checks are mailed within the first 5 days following the month in which they sold. Items are marked down 10% after 30 days and another 10% after 60 days.
- We have been doing this a long time (our staff has over 45 years combined consignment industry experience) and we know what will sell and at what price. About 50% of what comes in on any given day sells in the first 30 days and about 95% of the items we take under consignment sell during the 90 day contract period.
