Our Policies & More

Thank you for visiting Design Furniture Outlet & Consignment!

Our assortment is ever changing, with both brand new items and pre-owned items that are current in style.  It is our mission to provide a FUN shopping experience; a place you feel welcomed, always find a bargain no matter your budget, and never feel pressured to make a purchase.  Please note these important store policies:

ALL SALES FINAL & AS-IS.  We do not offer refunds, exchanges or returns. Because our assortment includes both new and pre-owned items, every item we sell will not be in perfect condition.  We make an effort to point out any obvious defects, and price the item accordingly, but the condition of an item is subjective to each individual. Your satisfaction with your purchase is our priority, so if you have any questions or need more information about the condition of an item, PLEASE CALL OR VISIT PRIOR TO PURCHASING.

5-DAY PICK UP POLICY. We have limited storage space, and we also want to keep your item safe and damage-free until it is in your hands.  Any purchases not picked up or delivered within (5) business days will be assessed a $10 per-day storage fee.  After 30 business days, and with prior notice to the contact information you have provided on your order, any unclaimed purchases will revert to store property.   

BE IN THE KNOW...Our assortment changes HOURLY and sells QUICKLY.  Make sure to see our daily posts on Instagram @dfg_consignment and Facebook @DesignFrn, and sign up for our weekly newsletter.

 

Thanks again for shopping with Design Furniture Outlet & Consignment!

About Our Consignment Process

1. SEND US YOUR PHOTOS/ EVALUATION PROCESS - Before we get started we need to be sure that your merchandise is salable. To do this, we ask to send photos of your items to our email dfgoutlet@gmail.com or you can text photos to our google number, 727-266-0221. 

Evaluation: Style, Condition, Living Environment (We only accept items from smoke-free homes and if your furniture is upholstered, the home must also be free from pets.)

2. DROP OFF & PICK UP SERVICES - DFG is happy to offer a convenient, fee-based pick-up service for our consignors. The fee is determined by the number of items, your location, and the overall difficulty of the move. This fee can be paid upfront or taken out of the first sale of your items.

Consignors may also make an appointment to deliver approved items to our showroom.

3. PRICING OF ITEMS - We determine the starting price of each item based on several factors, including: Original Purchase Price, Age, Condition, Name Brand

4. GETTING PAID - OUR CONSIGNORS RECEIVE 50% OF THE SELLING PRICE THE FIRST 60 DAYS, AND 40% OF THE SELLING PRICE THE LAST 60 DAYS. With all that said, it is always our goal to sell your item as quickly as possible for as much money as we can.

Once an item sells, Checks will be issued monthly after the 15th for the prior month (i.e. an item sold in July will be paid in August).. Customers must call to inquire about sold items and claim payment, checks will be valid for 180 days. Checks are available for pick-up or can be mailed to the consignor.
