Every consignor will have access to their account online or via the app 24/7. You will receive an email from our system (Ricochet) with logon info & a link to reset your own password.

We recommend a minimum of 4-6 weeks to allow your items to sell.

Please allow a minimum of 14 days after your item has sold – to allow funds to clear. After that time, you may request a payout up to $350/payout request OR you can use your consignor credit to shop with up to a 20% discount! We pay quarterly, based upon the timing of your payout request. If requesting a check via mail, please note there is a $1 fee per check. Nouveau is not responsible for checks lost in the mail, stolen or lost check fees. ***Please note Nouveau cannot guarantee the sale of your items.

NO CASH is given in the shop or via mail.

Consignors have one year from the date of their last sale to request payment on their account. After 12 months of inactivity, only in-store credit will be issued. No checks will be issued after that time.

We have a consignment cycle of 60 days.  This is a “rolling” 60-day period in which the date the item hits the floor is when the 60-day cycle begins.

We try our best to rotate inventory due to the small size of our sales floor & based upon what is selling at that time/season**

If you are consigning “luxury items” (Chanel, LV, Hermes, etc..) we can/will keep your items for an extended time period if they do not sell within the first 60 days if agreed upon by both Nouveau & Consignor.

**NOUVEAU does not guarantee your items will sell whether expressed or implied. Items “ACCEPTED” for consignment does not guarantee that the items will sell or be on the sales floor during the consignment period.

If an item has not sold during the 60-day consignment period it will be drastically reduced or donated**

**Please note items may be donated at ANY TIME, not necessarily after 60 days. We are happy to provide a donation receipt from Second Harvest upon request.

**NOUVEAU does not guarantee your items will sell whether expressed or implied. Items “ACCEPTED” for consignment does not guarantee that the items will sell or be on the sales floor during the consignment period.

PICK UP REQUESTS

Consignors who have items that are to be returned can request to have selected items held for pick up, if they do not sell within the 60-day consignment period.

If pick up is requested, the consignor is responsible for picking up their items within 7 days after we contact you to coordinate a pick-up appointment.

If no appointment has been made after 7 days, the items become the property of the Nouveau to donate or sell at our discretion.
