CONSIGNMENT

Sell your drums, guitars, and the like at Supersonic Music!

Primarily based on our current inventory mix in stock and also as space permits, we take customer-owned items on consignment all the time.  Some things aren’t a good fit, but most of the time, it’s all good.  If we agree to consign your instrument, you always remain in control.  You set the price and then decide which of two programs to use. 

In the A) program, you set the price you will accept from us after your item sells and we can try to sell it for whatever we want.  The more popular B) program is where you set the selling price then receive a percentage of the proceeds.  The store keeps 25% if you take dollars, but we only keep 10% if you take credit.  For example, after your snare sells for $200—get a $150 check or a $180 gift certificate.  With this program, we act as your broker much like a real estate agent.  You can be firm on your price, or negotiable.  We can negotiate on your behalf (based on either our best judgement or based on your predetermined “lowest acceptable selling price”) or we’ll call with offers.  Most people go with plan B) where we negotiate on their behalf informed by a minimum price.  

On occasion, something has just been around too long, is getting no attention, or is no longer a good fit/we’re out of room.  We may call to suggest a price drop, recommend changes (i.e. break up the set or pay to have us repair it), or ask for its removal.

Tips to help you sell your items on Consignment at Supersonic Music: 
  • The lower price you mark your item, usually the sooner it will sell.
  • The more complete, clean and original your item is, the more likely it will sell.
  • Consider allowing us to negotiate on your behalf; firm pricing is a turnoff to most buyers.

One more thing--please be cool.  This is your stuff, and you’re welcome to come get it to keep or whatever.  Cool = you decided to give your guitar to your nephew and you come get it to take it to his birthday party.  Uncool = you post your cymbal for sale on Craigslist “as seen at Supersonic Music” priced the same as it’s marked here, sell it to directly to someone then escort him in to the store to pick up “your” cymbal without leaving the store any commission.  Legal, but just not cool.  ​
