STEP 07
Get Paid

Difference Between Consigning and Outright Buying
When you choose to sell your items through TRUNCS, you have two options: consigning or outright buying. Each option has its own benefits and drawbacks, depending on your needs and preferences.
Consigning
When you consign your items with us, we list and sell the items on your behalf. You'll receive a percentage of the final sale price once the item sells. This option may or may not result in the highest payout, but our team will do their best to maximize the value of your items. If you have a reserve price (the lowest offer you'll accept) for any item, please inform us in advance so we can accommodate your preferences.
Advantage
Potential for higher payout
Disadvantage
Longer waiting period for the item to sell.
Outright Buying
If you choose to sell your items outright to TRUNCS, we'll consider several factors, such as item condition, rarity, and demand, to determine the purchase price. This option provides immediate payment for your items but may not always yield the highest payout.
Advantage
Immediate payment
Disadvantage
Possibly lower payout compared toconsignment

Consignment Commission Structure
Our consignment commission structure is based on the final selling price of each item. Unlike other companies, we guarantee a percentage payout to our sellers, regardless of the final sale price. The commission structure is outlined in the table below:
