Newport Nautical Store Policies: For NEW ITEMS: All items are available to return for full refund - less shipping - within two weeks of purchase. Items must be in new and un-altered condition. Customers must provide a copy of receipt for the refund.

For CONSIGNMENT: We put a few select consignemnt items on our eBay store from time to time. Feel free to visit our eBay store: newportnautical

Consignment Payout: Your stuff sells! Here's how the payout works... Option 1 (Store Credit): 75% / 25% Split - Use your earnings to buy new, used or special order equipment. When your gear sells, you retain seventy-five (75%) of the selling price. Credit for your sales are automatically posted to your account once a month. Option 2 (Cash): 60% / 40% Split - Make some extra cash! When your gear sells, you retain sixty-five (60%) of the selling price.
Upon your request, we will simply write you out a check for 60% of the total sales from your items. Checks are available once a month for prior month's sales.

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:

Acceptable to consign:
Sailboat hardware (blocks, shackles, cleats), winches, especially self-tailing, propellers, rail & stanchion fittings, cabin heaters and stoves in good working order, seaworthy inflatable (no leakers) & hard dinghies, working outboards between 2hp & 15hp.
