How much do I get for each sale?
Regular consigners get 70% of the sale, while the MTS takes 30%. (Changes to 65%/35% split as of March 1st, 2024)
If you are one of our qualified volunteers, you get to take an extra 10-20%!
Where does the MTS do with that 30%?
Our store is 501(c)4 Non-Profit, and all the sales revenue get poured back into our local JBLM community in the form of welfare funds grants and scholarships to military dependents! See our outreach and scholarship pages for more details.
I am PCSing into or out of JBLM. Do I get any added bonuses?
Yes! PCSing families get some added perks, like 2 contracts per day, and fewer item limitations. See an MTS manager for details!
What happens if one of my consignment items gets lost, damaged, or stolen?
While the MTS makes every effort to ensure the safety and security of all items within, the MTS does not assume responsibility for loss, damage, or theft of consignment items, and will not compensate for it. Consigners utilize the consignment opportunity at their own risk, and recognize the ongoing possibility of theft, loss, and/or damage to their items.
