Terms of Service:
As a consignor to the Mid-Atlantic Homeschool Expo (MAHEWV) Used Curriculum/Book Sale, I agree to the following:
SELLER
GENERAL:
1. Sellers will receive 70% of all items that are sold. The remaining 30% goes to MAHEWV as host of the sale. A fee of $10.00 will be deducted from each consignor's total sale proceeds as an administrative fee.
2. Books will need to be dropped off at Independent Bible Church on Thursday, July 25, 2024 between the hours of 12 p.m. - 5 p.m. ***NEW FOR 2024*** - Due to the growth of MAHEWV and in an effort not raise the rate of consignment, consignors are now required to sort their items by subject/type prior to drop-off. Additionally, at drop-off, Consignors are REQUIRED to place their items on the sale tables prior to leaving the venue. Please allow at least 30 minutes to accomplish this. We will have staff on hand to assist will unloading, etc.
3. Only consignors may donate books to be included on the "Free" table. Please do not enter items intended to be "free" into the system. Please group your "free" items separately from the items intended for sale at drop off to alleviate any confusion as to the seller's intentions for those items. Any items without a label will be considered "free" and placed on the "Free" table unless otherwise decided by MAHEWV.
4. Please note that any items that are donated (given) to MAHEWV by an individual, who is not a consignor, those items become the express property of MAHEWV and may be disposed of as we see fit. We do not accept directed donations.
5. Consignor will need to pick-up their unsold items on Saturday, July 27, 2024 between 3 p.m. - 5 p.m. Any unclaimed items after 5 p.m. on July 27, 2024 will be become the property of MAHEWV.
ENTERING ITEMS:
6. Sellers can bring anywhere from 2 items to 500 or more! This allows people with a small or large amount to participate.
7. Veteran sellers recommend entering 10 items at a time and then printing (see printing instructions below) and labeling. If you wait to print and label all your items at one time it can be time consuming to put the right label with the correct item.
8. When entering items, you will enter a full price for each item (if you do not want the item to be included in the 50% discount sale be sure to unmark the "X" in the “Dis” column), select an item category. You will also designate if you want the unsold item donated to the $10 bag sale. On Saturday, July 27, 2024 from 3 p.m. – 5 p. m., items that are not sold will be available for pick up or can be donated for the $10 bag sale. Sellers are not required to be present for the sale.
9. Price your books in $.50 increments. The min price is $1.00 unless the item is free and then you do not need to print a label for it (you can bundle books together if they are low in value).
10. Use ziplock bags to group odd-shaped items or items with lots of pieces.
11. If you use rubber bands, use bands across both the length and width.
PRINTING/TAGS:
12. Please use white paper to print tags and make sure that your print quality is NOT set on draft. The scanner has a hard time with colored paper.
13. Each book SHOULD have two tags, unless consignor is using stickers, then one label is sufficient. One inside the book and one outside the book. If you choose to not put two labels on your items, MAHEWV is not liable for lost or misplaced items for any reason.
14. Tape tags with one strip of clear tape through the middle.
15. It is suggested to enter, print, and label 10 items at a time to help keep you organized and save time looking for the correct label for the right book.
16. Cut the labels and tape (use clear tape) the proper one on the outside of each item. Tape that is easily removed is preferable. Put the other label inside the textbook. This is an extra precaution to ensure that we will be able to locate your items. Please place one piece of tape across the middle of the label.
17. If selling items as a set make sure to package the items together securely so they won’t become separated during the sale. Indicate the number of items when you entering the item information. It may be beneficial to label the package “sold as a SET”.
AFTER THE SALE:
19. To check on your sold and donated items, sign into your barcoding account and go to the "Sales Report" section. The Master Sheet will show books that sold and those that did not. Your unsold books, that you do not wish to donate to the $10 bag sale, need to be picked up from Independent Bible Church on Saturday, July 27, 2024 from 3 p.m. - 5 p.m. Any books not picked up by 5 p.m. will be become the property of MAHEWV and disposed of at our discretion.
20. If you have chosen to donate all unsold books, you will not need to do anything further to receive your payment. Payments will be made via check to the mailing address on file.
21. Proprietors of the sale and/or the location will not be held liable for any loss or damage to the items from any cause whatsoever, including, but not limited to flood, fire, or theft.
22. Note: MAHEWV is not a ministry of Independent Bible Church and is independently owned and operated.
***NEW FOR 2024*** - Due to the growth of MAHEWV and in an effort not raise the rate of consignment, consignors are now required to sort their items by subject/type prior to drop-off.
