Consignment for Creators

A Novel Romance Non-Book Consignment Policy

If you are a bookish merchandise creator who'd like to see your merchandise on our shelves, we want to hear from you!

We currently primarily source through Faire for ease of invoicing. This is absolutely not required, but if you're not currently on Faire and would like to consider it, our referral link is below! Please note that we do get referral credit through this link, and I believe the creator gets incentive, as well!

Priority will be given to local creators, and merchandise that fill gaps in our inventory.

Do you already have a Faire account or wholesale program set up? Please send us an email at consignment@anovelromance.com with the below requested information and just let us know the inquiry is for wholesale, not consignment!

If you would like for us to consider your merchandise, please email us at consignment@anovelromance.com with the following information:

1. Your Name and your business' name
2. The kind of merchandise you create
3. Images of the product, or a link to your website/social media/wholesale catalog where merchandise can been seen
4. A link to your website and/or social media pages
5. Any details you have for existing wholesale programs.

Consignment Terms
*Please disregard if you are a wholesale account*
If we choose to consign your merchandise, we will send you a consignment agreement to sign and return. By signing the agreement, you will be agreeing to the following:
1. Consignment terms are 60/40. Any product we sell, we will payout 60% of the retail price to you.
2. Consignment lasts for one quarter. The creator will provide initial inventory at start of consignment and is responsible for restock. If you start consignment in the middle of a quarter, you will be included in the soonest payout, but your consignment will remain active through the following quarter. For example, if you sign up on June 1, you will receive a payout (if applicable) in July, but your consignment will last through the end of September.
3. Consignment payouts will be completed quarterly within the first week of the month following the end of the quarter. Payouts will be done in January, April, July, October beginning in October 2024 (to allow one full quarter from the inception of the program to pass).
4. Once the consignment period ends, the creator is responsible for picking up any remaining inventory. If inventory is not picked up within 30 days from end of consignment, it will be donated. For nonlocal creators, you can also elect to send us a shipping label.

Depending on our current store needs and backlog, it could take 3-4 weeks to receive a response. We will get to you as quickly as we can, and please know that we are very excited to work with other small businesses! A delay in response just means that we are working through a large quantity of requests, and is no reflection on our enthusiasm for your merchandise.
