"I wish to thank you for all your help and advice in putting together my home entertainment center.  The Toshiba 52-inch high-def TV is beautiful as well as the Denon Blu-ray DVD Player and especially the Denon Receiver.  The sound and picture far exceed any system I've had in the past and was considerably less expensive than my previous equipment.  However, as pleased as I am with the system my enthusiasm is exceeded by the professional manor in which you handled my purchase.  Everything in the contract was fulfilled on time as well as the installation.  It is a long distance from Clearwater to Hudson and you came back a second time to fix a minor problem at no charge.  But what I find most impressive is that you really took delight in satisfying a customer.  Today, that is a rarity.  Again, thank you Brian."  -- G.W., Hudson, FL

Consignment

How It Works

At consignment businesses, consignment fees typically run as high as 50% and 60%.  But we've kept ours at 40% for years. 

CONSIGNMENT OPTION 1

Full-service consignment, which means we display, advertise, present and demonstrate your gear, just as we do our own new gear.  We handle any customer inquiries (send them pictures, specs and other relevant information) and find a buyer; we process the payment and deliver the gear to the buyer; we handle after-purchase questions and issues and mail you a check for the net proceeds from the sale.  For full-service consignment, Consignment Option 1, the fee is 40%. 

CONSIGNMENT OPTION 2

Consignment Level 2 is the same as Level 1, but you keep the gear until it’s sold.  We advertise and promote your gear, handle customer inquiries (send them pictures, specs and other relevant information), find a buyer and handle the sale.  But once it’s sold, you deliver the item to the buyer yourself.  We send you a check for your net proceeds from the sale.  For Consignment Option 2, the fee is 25%.

Increase Your Proceeds by 10%:  This is simple.  If you leave your proceeds from the sale on account with us to apply to your own product purchases here at Sweet Home Audio, we reduce our consignment fee by 10%.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  When we sell a used item, we do our very best to represent the product exactly as it is.  This is very important!  One of our most critical operating principles is that "we deliver what we promise."  This is not just a slogan for us but the way we actually operate.  When we have the used item here in our store, we can verify the operational status and physical condition of the products.  When we don't, we try to get pictures and other information about the items so that we gain confidence that the product is as stated.  In these cases, we also delay payment until the buying customer has received the item and verified that it truly is as promised. 

Existing agreements:  Needless to say (but here it is anyway!), all current consignments that we now have will continue under whatever agreement was made at the time of the consignment.  The above Consignment Levels apply to all new consignments.  Of course, our policy to deliver what we promise applies to everything we do. 

To the very many of you who place your used AV gear with us to sell and to the very many of you who look to us for quality used AV products, we give you a very hearty THANK YOU!

Now it is easier than ever to turn your old gear into cash!  Call (727) 446-2505 today!
