The Consignor specified above and Legacies agree to the following terms and conditions of this contract.
1. Legacies operates as a resale shop for the benefit of Cancer Support Community, a charitable organization exempt from income tax pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
2. Legacies will accept merchandise for consignment BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. ITEMS DROPPED OFF WITHOUT APPOINTMENT WILL BE CONSIDERED DONATED. CONSIGNOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ITEMS BEING LISTED AND LABELED WITH NAME AND ACCOUNT NUMBER. ITEMS MUST BE OF GOOD CONDITION, CLEAN AND, AS APPROPRIATE, IN WORKING ORDER. Failure to comply may result in items being considered donated.
3. Legacies will establish the selling price for consigned merchandise. Price expectations, if any, shall be expressed at time of appointment. Legacies may reduce the selling price of any item at any time without prior notice to the Consignor. Reductions include, but are not limited to, coupon redemption, scheduled reductions, and sale events. Selling prices automatically reduce by 15 percent (15%) thirty (30) days after being ticketed and this reduced price remains in effect until the end of the Consignment Period.
4. Legacies will retain the merchandise on consignment until it is sold, or for not less than the Consignment Period. The Consignment Period will be 60 Days. The Consignment Period begins on the initial date indicated on the price ticket. The consigned item will be placed on the sales floor on or before the initial date indicated on the price ticket.
5. The Consignor retains the right to reclaim unsold items at any time during the Consignment Period. If the Consignor does not want to donate or does not want the price to be reduced, it is Consignor’s responsibility (with proper ID) to find the items on the sales floor, work with a staff member to remove the price tags and have the items removed from inventory. A reclaiming fee may be charged for any item reclaimed by the consignor. A schedule of reclaiming fees will be provided upon request.
6. Any item not sold at the end of the Consignment Period will be donated to Legacies/The Cancer Support Community at the end of the Consignment Period.
7. Items not accepted for consignment shall be taken back at appointment time or they will be considered donated.
8. Items that do not meet the minimum price points established by Legacies will be considered donated. A schedule of minimum price points will be provided at time of appointment or upon request.

10. Upon sale, Legacies will retain 50 percent (50%) of the selling price, excluding sales tax. The Consigner will be reimbursed for the remaining 50 percent (50%) of the selling price, less handling or item fees. Handling fees include bank and credit card expenses, and necessary additional surcharges for moving, cleaning, and repairs. The schedule of fees is available upon request. For large or difficult-to-display items or for fine jewelry, Legacies reserves the right to retain more or less than 50 percent (50%) of the selling price, excluding sales tax. The Consigner will be reimbursed for the remaining percentage of the selling price, less handling or item fees. Consignor will be advised at the time of appointment if their items fall into this category and the percentage of the selling price they will receive.
11. Consignor checks are issued monthly for all items that have sold during the preceding month. Checks will be mailed to Consignors on or about the 7th day of the month. Checks less than $10.00 will not be issued. The amount payable will roll over until such time as the Consigner is due more than $10.00. A fee will be charged for each check to cover postage and mailing expenses.
12. Legacies will not reissue uncashed checks older than 12 months. Uncashed checks over 12 months will be submitted to the State of Ohio Unclaimed Funds. A fee will be charged for lost checks that require stop payment.
