  • Fineline Tack will act as an agent for the Consignor, therefore the articles placed with Fineline Tack will remain the property of the Consignor until sold, picked up by Consignor or shipped back to Consignor.
  • Consignor’s articles are covered by Fineline Tack’s business insurance policy while in Fineline Tack’s care. The consignment items are also shipped with full insurance that will cover any loss or damage during shipment.
  • Consignor assumes all risks and agrees to bear any and all losses which may result from fire, theft or any other casualty while the merchandise is consigned at Fineline Tack
  • Items placed on consignment will be priced at the amount that is agreed upon by the Consignor and Consignee.

  • Consignor agrees to allow saddle to be shipped out on trials with prospective buyers for periods of 3-7 days. During which time, saddles will be test ridden.
  • Consignor also agrees for saddle to be displayed at Fineline Tack vendor booths at horse shows.
  • Consignor agrees to allow the saddle to be transported in a car and taken to prospective buyers for test rides on local day trials.
  • Consignor shall not hold Fineline Tack responsible for wear, damage, fire or theft during trial periods.
  • Fineline Tack agrees to advertise all consigned saddles on Finelinetack.com, Fineline Tack’s Facebook and Instagram pages and relevant Facebook groups.
  • Once the saddle has arrived with Highline Tack or Fineline Tack and is listed as a consignment, the saddle can only be transitioned to a Trade-In or Buy-Out for an additional $150 fee. However, a saddle that arrives as a Trade-In can be transitioned to a Consignment at no additional cost.

Consignment Selling Period and Terms:

  • Consignor is responsible for all shipping charges between Consignor and Consignee.
  • Consignor must give 7 days notice prior to removing consigned saddle from Fineline Tack once saddle is inventory for consignment. The saddle will be shipped back to the original address.
  • There is a $100 fee for removing a consigned saddle from our stock to cover cleaning and advertising time and expenses. The owner is also responsible for the shipping costs (incoming and outgoing).
  • Fineline Tack’s saddle consignment fee is 25%. The minimum consignment fee is $500.
  • We appreciate clean consignment saddles, but we do not charge a fee for cleaning newly consigned saddles.
  • Please note that there is a $40 charge for consignment saddles that arrive without a cover (can be a generic cover)

Payment Policy:

  • Once the consignment saddle has sold, full due payment will be made to Consignor within 3 business days. We process Pay-Outs on Wednesdays and Fridays.
  • Please do not contact us for updates on your saddle’s status after your saddle has gone out on trial. We will contact you to pay you out (see above). Or, we will contact you once we receive the saddle back from the trial and it has been fully checked back into our stock.
  • Full due payment to consignor refers to the payment paid for the saddle from the buyer to Highline Tack, minus the consignment fee. The incoming shipping fee with full insurance will also be deducted from the payment to the Consignor.
  • Payment will be made in the form of a mailed check or through Paypal (no fees will be taken out). Consignor may also choose to apply some or all of the payment to store credit with Highline Tack or Fineline Tack.
