Woods + Waters has the right to refuse any item for any reason.
No. Selling your gear on consignment will take longer than an upfront sale, but you’ll usually receive more money for your items by consigning them instead of selling for cash on the spot.
We want gear to find the perfect home, so we offer a 7-business day return with tags on and receipt present. If you miss the return window, you are welcome to re-consign items that are in season.
All items must be clean, freshly washed, in good working order and functioning properly, as determined within Woods + Waters discretion. Woods + Waters reserves the sole and exclusive right to refuse any item(s) brought in for consignment based on condition, brand, season, or other factors. If an item, after initially accepted for consignment, is subsequently found to not meet these criteria, you will be notified and asked to reclaim the item. If you do not respond to the notification or reclaim the item within 14 days of notification, Woods + Waters will assume ownership of the item and have the authority to dispose of such item within its sole discretion.
By consigning with Woods + Waters, you confirm that you are the unrestricted owner of the item(s) that you are consigning. Any Seller found to have consigned stolen items will have her/his/their account terminated and Woods + Waters will pursue appropriate legal action and cooperate with investigations into the matter.
Except as otherwise detailed in this Agreement, you will continue to own and have title to each item that you intend to sell through Woods + Waters until that item is "Sold.” An item will be considered Sold when: it is sold by Woods + Waters to a Customer and not returned to Woods + Waters within the then-current Return Policy (see Return Policy). Woods + Waters defines possession as being the moment goods are received and loaded into your Seller account through Woods + Waters' inventory management system.
