Ready to make room for your next setup? Consign your used watersports equipment with Elite Watersports. We help connect your gear with its next owner and handle the sales process, from preparing the listing and communicating with buyers to coordinating payment and shipping.
Choose a payout by check, Zelle, or Venmo, or get a larger share of the sale as Elite Watersports store credit. Review the highlights below, then complete the consignment agreement to submit your equipment for consideration.
Start your consignment agreement
How consignment works
- Tell us about your gear. Include the brand, model, size, accessories, and any known damage or repairs in the agreement below.
- Confirm acceptance and pricing. Elite Watersports will confirm whether your equipment is accepted and any agreed pricing or special terms. Submitting the form does not guarantee acceptance.
- Let us handle the sale. We prepare and market accepted equipment, communicate with buyers, and coordinate the transaction.
- Receive your proceeds. Once the sale clears the applicable warranty period and any open disputes are resolved, receive your selected payout or store credit.
Choose your payout
- Check, Zelle, or Venmo: You receive 70% of the retail selling price before the additional deductions listed below. Elite Watersports retains a 30% commission.
- Elite Watersports store credit: You receive 75% of the retail selling price before the additional deductions listed below. Elite Watersports retains a 25% commission.
The retail selling price is the actual equipment sale price after discounts, excluding sales tax and separately charged shipping or delivery. Store credit is not redeemable for cash except where required by law, and transfers require Elite Watersports' approval.
Processing fees and shipping
In addition to our commission, a 3% payment-processing fee calculated on the retail selling price is deducted from your share, regardless of payout method. The consignor also covers shipping costs, reduced by any shipping payment collected from the buyer, plus other expenses authorized by the agreement.
Standard photography, advertising, basic cleaning, and ordinary sale preparation are included in our commission. Billable repairs, replacement parts, testing, and specialized cleaning require your approval unless covered by your preauthorized repair limit.
A simple payout example
If your gear sells for $1,000, shipping costs $50, the buyer does not contribute toward shipping, and there are no other deductions:
- Check, Zelle, or Venmo: $1,000 minus $300 commission, $30 processing fee, and $50 shipping = $620 to you.
- Store credit: $1,000 minus $250 commission, $30 processing fee, and $50 shipping = $670 in store credit.
Important details before you consign
- Payment timing: Proceeds are issued after the buyer has paid in full, funds have cleared, any applicable 30-day buyer warranty has ended, and open returns or transaction disputes have been resolved.
- Consignment period: The initial term is four months. If you do not contact us within seven calendar days after a term ends, another four-month term begins automatically and the listing price may be reduced by 15%. This may repeat at later renewals. A minimum selling price agreed in writing remains in place unless you approve a change.
- Equipment condition: You must own the equipment or have authority to sell it. Please disclose known defects, damage, repairs, recalls, safety concerns, and ownership issues.
- Pickup and sales: You may request the return of unsold equipment, subject to pending buyer transactions and approved unpaid expenses. If you find a buyer while your equipment is consigned, the sale still goes through Elite Watersports under the agreement.
- No guaranteed sale: Selling price and time to sell depend on condition and market demand. Insurance is recommended while your equipment is consigned; review the agreement for loss, damage, returns, and unclaimed-equipment terms.
