How to consign products

• Please submit the photographs to be posted together with the product via a separate E-mail.

How to fill in the consignment sales request form

• Consignment sales price: You can set any price for the products. Although there is not lower limit, please make sure to set a price which includes the consignment fee.
  (New, unused products may not be able to be posted if they are priced at a price lower than the recommended retail price offered by the manufacturer. In such case, we may have to describe “ASK” (inquiry to be made for the price) for the price.)
• Description of the product: Name of manufacturer, model number, name of part, part number, quantity,
• Description of the product: Status of the product or when it had been purchased (description of the product which you request to be posted for the offering product)
• It is recommended that you describe whether the product has its guarantee form attached, whether it is contained in its original box, whether it has its operation manual contained, or if it has any special selling point such as being a rare product or limited edition, etc.
• It will be helpful if you include descriptions for matters that are highly expected to be asked such as its operation status or where the failure is, etc.
• Photograph: Please attach the photograph for the product which you wish to be posted together with the offer.
  Please be informed that we do not return the positives or media for the photographs.

As for the images

• We basically do not process the received images.
• Whether the photograph is clear or vivid will have a big impact upon the sales of the target product.
  It is recommended that you do not use any photograph that is out of focus, dark photographs, or photographs where the target product is shown in a small image.
  If the product has any accessory or any special selling point, we recommend you to fully utilize such advantages and include them into the product’s description.
