Condition: Curriculum should be in new to good used condition with no smells/stains and clean. Mild writing on up to 5 pages is okay but no pages are missing. Loose items should be in a binder or pocket tab notebook. Books with dust or dirt on them can usually be cleaned by wiping a damp paper towel or cloth over the cover. Please go through your consignment items and clean them prior to bringing them in for consignment.
Pricing: You can price your items yourself by putting the price inside the front cover in pencil or putting a post-it on the cover with the price you want OR I can price it on your behalf. I usually price 60% of retail for new items and excellent used, 50% for good used, with some rounding to make the numbers look nicer. Fiction readers are generally priced at 50%.
Fees: For store credit, the consignor split is 60% of the sold price to the person who owns the curriculum and 40% to the store when items sell. For cash, the split is 40% to the consignor and 60% to the store when items sell. No set up fees. You’re able to track what sells online in real time via a login we make when you bring in your items.
Time: It usually takes 30-45 minutes to go through your items together, and it takes me so far an average of 3-4 hours to get everything put into the system - so you might not see your items right away no matter how fast I try to make that happen. Items do get put in the computer much faster if you price items before bringing them in.
No Shows: Please contact us via Messenger, email (allison@homeschool-house.com) or call 254-831-3070 if you cannot make your appointment as soon as possible & we can reschedule.
Additional Important Information: CONSIGNMENT IS ACCEPTED BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. At the time of your appointment, you’re required to choose store credit or cash and to commit to a day and time to plan to pick up your items or donate them.
