CONSIGNMENT TERMS
A Gift to Remember is stocked almost
exclusively with handcrafted goods made by local artisans who pay a
small monthly consignment fee to have their wares displayed in the
store. We are always interested in hearing from talented individuals
who would like to take part.
Who can be a consignor?
Anyone who has a talent for making handcrafted goods of almost
any description can participate.
What sort of crafts can be brought in?
We will accept almost anything of a handcrafted nature,
provided it is made to a high standard. We try to avoid duplication
that would have one consignor's goods competing directly with anothers'.
How much does it cost?
There is a one time registration/administration fee of $25.00 plus GST to cover
the cost of maintaining account records.
There is also a monthly fee of $50 plus GST and 20% commission to cover
operating expenses. Thus, for about $2 per day, your goods will be
displayed for sale 8 hours per day, 7 days per week, in an attractive
retail setting in one of the prime locations for crafts in Canada,
where they will be promoted by a knowledgeable and dedicated sales
staff.
Who sets the selling price?
You establish exactly how much it is that you want to receive
whenever one of your items is sold. We add 20% commission to defray
overhead costs such as mortgage, heat, hydro, wages, advertising, etc.
This commission also allows us to conduct sales without affecting the
amount that you will receive for your product.
How long a term do I have to commit to?
The minimum consignment period is six months. After this period,
it is on a month to month basis.
How do I get paid when my good sell?
All sales are processed through our computer sales register
and are credited to your account. Everything that is sold for each
consignor is recorded each day, so that you can view your
current listing of all sales at any time. At the end of each month your sales
are deposited directly into your bank account for the full amount you are owed.
Are there any other benefits?
Yes, each consignor is entitled to a 10% discount on any regular priced item
purchased in the store. We are also currently working on our website to
provide Online Shopping, which we are hoping will be available Spring 2008
for all our vendors that wish to participate.
Where do I sign up?
For further details you may visit the store, or call any of
our staff at (519) 664-1831, or e-mail us at agifttoremember1@gmail.com. |
