TIMELINE
Upon initial drop off, Climb On will asses your items within 10 days. If an item is unsellable, we will give you a courtesy call or email. It is your responsibility to pick up rejected items within 10 days of the request being issued or we will donate your items to Pearl's.
Once accepted we will try and sell your items for 120 days (4 Months). If your item did not sell within 120 days, we will reduce the cost without contacting you, so it gets sold. We will donate it elsewhere if it is not sellable.
We advise that you come into the store, or give us a call, to check if your items have sold within the 4 Month period. For expensive items, we will give you a courtesy call to advise you to pick up your unsold items. If you do not pick these items up, Climb On will donate them to a local, not-for-profit charity.
PRICING
Climb On reserves the right to accept or reject items for consignment. If accepted, pricing for the items will be set at Climb On's discretion. Customers are encouraged to make pricing suggestions, however Climb On will decide the final price.
All item(s) provided by Consignor will automatically decrease in price by 10% of every original asking price. For example, if your item were to sell for $100 the decrease in price will be as follows:
| Days | 21 | 42 | 63 | 84 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Discount | 10% | 20% | 30% | 40% |
| Selling Price | $90 | $80 | $70 | $60 |
MONEY GOING BACK TO YOU
Consignor and Consignee Split:
- Items that sell under $250: 50-50 split

- Items that sell for $501-$750: 70% You – 30% Store

If the money is used in-store, you will get an additional 25% discount applied to the amount of credit being spent.
Money returned to you will only be done with a Canadian Debit card. No cash or credit card will be used for returns.
