Consignment FAQs
-
Consignment with Wild Appalachia Supply & Co. is a win-win partnership! You provide us with your gently used outdoor gear and clothing, and we handle the selling process for you, sharing the profits along the way.
Our team will inspect your items to ensure they meet our quality standards, then set a fair selling price and display them in our store. Once your item sells, we’ll either provide cash or add store credit to your consignor account. It’s that simple!

Before you visit, please ensure your gear is in good working condition. Clothing should have functional snaps, buttons, and zippers, and be free of rips, stains, tears, holes, pet hair, strong odors, or mildew. Footwear should be clean, free of mud and debris, and include all laces and insoles. We have a 10 item limit per visit.
Please also take the time to complete an online consignment account so that we can process your items and your cash/credit quickly.
We accept consignment during our store hours on Saturday each week. If you need another time, please contact the store and we will work with your schedule.
When you arrive in the store we will inspect your item and work with you to establish a sale price based on fair market value. We reserve the right to refuse to sell the item.
On the first of the month the selling price of consigned items are discounted by the following amounts:
0% during the first month or portion thereof
10% during the second month
25% during the third month
50% during the fourth month.
If your item does not sell we can hold the item for you or donate it. We will hold the item for 30 days for pick up. After 30 days if you do not contact us the item will be donated to a charity of the stores choice.

Consignors earn 50% of an item’s selling price if paid in cash, or 60% if paid in store credit. For instance, if your item sells for $100, you’ll receive $50 in cash or $60 in store credit. Store credit can be used on consignment or new retail items.
For those choosing cash payments, we offer payment through PayPal. Please note that payments will be made only on the third week of every month and 72 hours after your item sells. No exceptions.
If you prefer store credit, it will be available 72 hours after your item sells. Store credit is good for one year!
You can check your account balance online, visit us in-store, or give us a call for any inquiries.
