Option 2 (Cash): 65% / 35% Split - Make some extra cash! When your gear sells, you retain sixty-five (65%) of the selling price. Upon your request, we will simply write you out a check for 65% of the total sales from your items.

 

Marine Consignment Policy:

The items you consign are  yours until they sell, and you may take them back at any time. We will  work with you on setting prices. We generally like to price things at half  of what they sell for new at discount. This is a general guideline and the  condition of the items is also a factor. If an offer is made on one of  your items for significantly less than the marked price, we will pass the offer on to you. Due to the large number of consignment contributors, we ask that you call us on or after the 1st of each month to check on  items sold. You may check as frequently as once a month.

In order to keep the consignment selection fresh and ever changing, we've instituted a few guidelines regarding what we will and won't accept. Please see the table above for some examples. - Effective February, 2005.
