Selling Your Antiques at Clover House
We’ve had a lot of people ask about selling their items at Clover House so I thought I would address it in a quick blog post.
I know a ton of people just have one or two antique or vintage items that you’d like to sell and if that’s the case then you don’t need to rent a whole booth from us to sell your item! Depending on the amount of space we have available and your item we can either take it on consignment or buy it out right from you for cash!
So let’s quickly talk about these two ways to sell your stuff.
Consignment - when we take an item on consignment you sign an agreement with us to have your item in the shop for an agreed upon length of time (anywhere from 3 months up to a year). During that time we will try to sell the item for you to our wonderful customers that are looking for unique vintage pieces. Ultimately Clover House has the final say on what price the item will be listed at (everything is explained in the agreement). When the item sells we split the profit 50/50 and Clover House will mail you a check for your portion.
Pros of consignment are it gets the item out of your house and into a shop where people are specifically looking for items just like yours!
Cons of consignment is that it may not sell right away and therefore you won’t get paid until it sells.
Buying Outright - okay this is pretty self explanatory, but you have an item that Clover House wants to sell so we buy it from you for cash on the spot.
Pros of Buying Outright is you immediately have the money and item gone from your house! And there’s no contract to sign or worry about!
If you have an item that you think Clover House may be interested in please send an email to us at cloverhousetx@gmail.com. Please include a picture of the item(s) and whether you are interested in consignment or a buyout. If you’d like Clover House to buy outright please include the price you are hoping to get for the item(s) and the location of where pickup would need to be made.
If you or a family member will be hosting an estate sale soon we would love the chance to come buy items before the official sale starts! Please email us if you’d like us to take a look for presales!
