How to Consign Your Gear
We accept consignment every day at our Burlington location until one hour before we close. Here's how it works:
1. Get Your Gear Ready
Before you come in, clean and assess your gear for wear, defects, and missing parts. We accept outdoor gear, clothing, and footwear in good or better condition.
It can be helpful to put together a list of your gear ahead of time that includes the info below, but our staff will help you during consignment if you aren't able to.
- Brand
- Description of gear
- How much your gear cost when it was new
- How much you'd like to sell your gear for
2. Bring In Your Gear
Once you've got your gear together, come to OGE and head to the consignment desk in the basement.
- If you're consigning skis, snowboards, ski boots, ski bindings, or bikes, you'll need to stop off at our service department desk first for one of our techs to check over the condition of your gear.
Before we take in your gear, we'll create a consignment account for you using your name, email address, and phone number. Then, we'll assess your gear's condition, accept (or reject) it, and help you price it.
After we complete your intake, we'll give you a quick tutorial on how to check your consignment credit balance and the status of your gear on our website.
Large Batches of Gear
To keep things running smoothly for everyone, we’ve updated our intake process for larger drop-offs:
- Large batches (25+ items): These will no longer be processed on the spot.
- How it works: Simply drop off your items and our consignment team will carefully review them, set pricing, and upload everything to your consignor portal.
- Turnaround time: Most large batches will be fully processed and visible in your portal within 1-2 weeks of drop-off.
This policy helps us keep intake quick and efficient while giving your gear the attention it deserves.
Getting Paid
When your gear sells, you will receive 60% of its selling price in OGE store credit.
- The store credit will be posted to your OGE customer account.
- Your store credit will be posted to your account immediately when an item sells.
- In the event that an item is returned due to a defect, you will be charged back the amount you were credited for the sale.
- You can cash out your store credit to receive 50% of your gear's selling price by:
- NEW! Requesting a PayPal payout.
- Requesting a check. Requested consignment payout checks are mailed at the end of each month.
- We are unable to send out checks for less than $50 unless all of your gear has been sold.
- Coming into our Burlington store and requesting cash from the drawer.
- To use your store credit online at gearx.com, it needs to be converted to an OGE gift card first.
