Have board games and accessories taking up valuable space? Bring them to KantCon to donate to the library or sell them in the Board Game Garage Sale!


The KantCon Board Game Garage Sale allows any KantCon attendee to buy or sell new or used board games and related items at the convention.


Purchases
  1. Browse the garage sale area.

  2. Take your items to the cashier.

  3. Pay with cash, PayPal, Venmo, Google Pay, Apple Pay, or credit card. Items are priced as marked in whole dollar amounts.

  4. Note: All items are sold in as-is condition. It is the buyer's responsibility to check out the item's contents prior to purchasing. KantCon accepts no responsibility for any missing pieces, damage, or other item deficiencies. All sales are final and cannot be refunded.


Selling
  1. Fill out the garage sale form online before the Monday prior to the convention or fill out a paper copy of the form on-site.
    Note: you must have a current year KantCon badge to sell items.
    Each attendee is limited to 300 items/lots.
    Board games and related accessories are accepted. While board game related accessories are accepted, this is not an avenue for 3D-printed or homemade items to be sold unless combined with a board game.
    Note: KantCon reserves the right to refuse items that do not meet the above criteria or in any way violate KantCon policies.
    Items may be grouped as a "lot" with a single price, such as a game with expansions, promos, extra dice, game inserts, etc.

  2. Drop off your items at the Garage Sale area.

  3. Create a price tag for each item/lot being sold that includes the price (in whole dollar amounts) and your badge number.
    If you filled out the form online, price tags will be printed and ready to tape to your games.

  4. If there are any notes about the game (missing pieces or extra items such as promos, expansions, game insert, sleeves, etc.), please add a sticky note with those details to the game.

  5. Note: while we will have items in the Garage Sale area monitored during convention hours by our staff, KantCon cannot guarantee the safety of any items and will not be responsible for reimbursing or replacing any missing or damaged items. Participation in this sale constitutes your acceptance of this risk and waives KantCon of liability.


15% Commission

KantCon will keep a 15% commission amount from all sales to support the convention. We will round up to the nearest dollar (in your favor) for payouts.

Example: If you sold $35 in items, KantCon will collect $5.00 (5.25 rounded down) in commission and you will receive $30.00 (29.75 rounded up), paid by PayPal or cash (when available).


Checking Out

Sellers may pick up any unsold items from the sale and be paid out for any sold items by PayPal or cash (when available). Items must be picked up by 3 PM on Sunday. Any items left beyond that point will become the property of KantCon if we cannot reasonably arrange to have the owner pick up items at KantCon.
