Although "consignment" may be a familiar word for most of us, there are still many people who don't know exactly what it is. Some get it confused with "vintage" and others just don't get it. Consignment is the perfect way for people who don't know each other to share their goods with each other through a median (consignment shop). Basically the consignor (person who wants to sell) will make an appointment with the consignee (us) to show what they want to sell. The consignee and consignor will work out a price that is good for both and (voila!) good luck to us both!

This relationship works out for everyone, in this economy everyone wants some extra cash and to find a good deal for well made luxurious goods. This way, everyone gets what they want.. Happy ending indeed..
