Clutter to Cash Consignment
What is Consignment? Consignment is a business arrangement in which a business, also referred to as a "consignee", agrees to sell items for a "consignor" in return for an agreed commission. The English word consignment is from the French word consignor, which means to deposit, as in to drop off items for sale. Consignment businesses are typically retail stores that specialize in a particular type of consumer product.
