Board Game Consignment Sale 2023
It's not a Kanata Con without our ever popular consignment sale. So if you're looking to thin your collection to make shelf space for shiny new games, bring your games in and we'll help them find new homes. Or perhaps there are games you wanted, come by and peruse our sale for good deals and relinquished treasures.
For those who come for the start of the sale, please note that as with other years we will continue to have a 5 item purchase limit for the first time through the sales floor in order to keep people flowing through the space. Then once the line shrinks this limit will be lifted.
We will be running this sale as a sort of Dutch Auction. As such sellers have the option to set a “Starting Price” and a “Dutch Price”, this allows sellers the option to have a reduced price for the end of the sale in order to increase the chance of their items selling, of course a seller may enter the same price for both prices. Note when the time switch comes, we will ask all buyers to leave the space then re-enter in order that no one is standing around holding an item waiting on the changeover.
