Example Consignment

What one bike can look like end to end.

A realistic example using a high-end trail bike so owners can see how pricing, effort, and payout work before they consign.

Example Item

Carbon trail bike in excellent condition, upgraded wheels, recently serviced suspension, and ready for a new rider.

How It Works

  1. You fill out the consign form with photos, condition, and original purchase price.
  2. Summit Vault picks up the gear, inspects it, cleans it up, and decides how to position it for resale.
  3. Summit Vault lists it across the right channels, handles all messages, negotiates with buyers, and manages meetup or shipping.
  4. If it does not sell within 45 days, Summit Vault handles donation.
  5. You receive your payout after the 35% fee.

Why It Works

You avoid the back-and-forth, flaky buyers, platform hopping, and the time cost of selling it yourself. Summit Vault takes care of the work and turns unused gear into cash or a clean donation outcome.
