WHEREAS, the Consignee ("Tailored Consignment LLC") is engaged in the sale and marketing of luxury designer items, including but not limited to clothing, watches, and/or jewelry.
WHEREAS, the Consignor owns certain items ("Property"), and wishes to sell that Property; and
WHEREAS, Consignor desires that the Property be sold on consignment by Consignee, and Consignee wishes to sell that Property on behalf of Consignor;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual premises and covenants contained in this Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
Consigned Property
The Consignor will make the Property available to the Consignee on a consignment basis.
Delivery of Property
Consignee accepts the Property from the Consignor on a consignment basis only. Consignee may provide a prepaid shipping label for Consignor if desired and Consignor is located in the United States of America.
Acceptance of Property
Upon receipt of the Property, Consignee will evaluate it to determine its authenticity and quality. Items of Property that do not meet Consignee's authenticity or quality standards will be donated to charity or returned to the Consignor at the Consignor's option (see "Return of Property" below).
Consignment Period
The "Consignment Period" for an item of Property shall begin on the date the Property is received by Consignee and shall end 180 days after acknowledgment of receipt. The Consignment Period automatically extends an additional 180 days unless Consignor requests unsold items returned. Request for a return must be in writing at least 15 days prior to the end of the original consignment period. This Agreement covers all Property consigned from the beginning of time, in perpetuity.
Efforts to Sell
Upon acceptance of the Property, Consignee will display the Property and will make commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Property. The price will be set by Consignee, and may be changed from time to time by the Consignee without notice to the Consignor. Consignee reserves the right to run promotions on its website and other properties to offer discounts to its customers and items may be placed into Consignee's sales as part of its ongoing sales efforts.
Title to Property
Title to and ownership in the Property will remain with the Consignor until a Property Sale, as defined below. A "Property Sale" shall be deemed to have occurred if an item of Property is:
- sold by Consignee, paid for and shipped;
- lost or stolen from Consignee's stock on hand;
- damaged or destroyed while in Consignee's possession; or
- otherwise not physically present in Consignee's stock on hand.
Payment and Commissions
On the sale of any item of Property, the Consignee will receive the following Commission (as defined below):
- An amount equal to 30% of the gross selling price per item, excluding tax and shipping, for the first $500.00
- An amount equal to 15% of the gross selling price per item, excluding tax and shipping, of any amount over $500.00
The net selling price shall be Consignor's sole compensation under this Agreement. The net selling price reflects all applicable sales commissions, including, but not limited to the Consignee, eBay fees, referral fees, shipping fees, promotions and other discounts applied directly to or associated with the sold item. Consignee issues Zelle payments & checks for net selling price around the 5th business day of every month for a sale period beginning on the 1st of prior month to the last day of the previous month for any net payments over $20. Amounts under $20 will carryover to the following month. For example, checks issued on May 5th would cover the sale period from April 1–April 30.
Risk of Loss; Damage
All risk of loss or damage of the Property does not pass to the Consignee when the Property is in the Consignee's physical possession. The Consignee does not insure the Property against such risks including but not limited to fire, theft, vandalism, breakage or natural disaster. It shall be the obligation of the Consignor to adequately insure the Property at Consignor's own expense, for the benefit of and in the name of Consignee.
Return of Property
At any time after the Consignment Period, Consignor may require the immediate removal of all or some of the Property from Consignee's website, with reasonable written notice to Consignee. If the Property is not sold during the Consignment Period, items may be returned to the Consignor upon request, at Consignor's expense. Additionally, if the Consignor requests the return of Property prior to the end of the Consignment Period, there will be a fee of $10 per item listed under $100, and $20 per item listed over $100 to cover Consignee's costs of storing, cataloging and photographing the Property, and Consignor will be responsible for shipping costs to and from Consignee.
Termination
Either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time, for any reason. Termination shall be effective when either Party serves written notice thereof on the other Party, to such Party's notice address. Within 15 days of the receipt acknowledgement date of the termination notice, all Property must be returned to the Consignor. Costs listed above under Return of Property will apply.
No Assignment
Neither Party may assign this Agreement or any interest herein without the other Party's express prior written consent, except that Consignee may assign this Agreement without Consignor's consent in connection with any corporate transaction such as a merger or acquisition.

No Property Warranties
The Consignee shall not offer any warranties on the sale of any Property, except to the extent a warranty is required by law and cannot be disclaimed.
Consignor's Representations, Warranties, and Indemnification
Consignor hereby warrants to the Consignee that it has good and marketable title to the Property, none of which is subject to any liens or other encumbrances, and further warrants that the property does not infringe upon or violate any trademark, copyright, or other proprietary right of any third party, any state or federal law, or any administrative regulation.
