Drop Ship Consignment

Approved drop ship consignors are authorized to ship sold items directly to customers from their own facility instead of shipping inventory to the Pristine Auction warehouse.

What Is a Drop Ship Consignor?

A drop ship consignor:

• Stores inventory at their own location
• Ships sold items directly to the winning bidder
• Maintains responsibility for fulfillment and shipment handling

Applying for Drop Ship Approval

Drop shipping is available only to approved consignors.

Seller Responsibilities

Approved drop ship sellers are responsible for:

• Proper packaging
• Shipment handling
• Carrier coordination
• Tracking updates
• Delivery completion

Liability for Drop Ship Packages

When using the drop ship program:

• The consignor remains responsible for the package until delivery is completed
• Sellers may be held liable for shipment issues, delays, loss, or delivery problems

Tracking Requirements

Payment processing may be delayed until shipment tracking:

• Shows movement beyond label creation
• Reflects carrier acceptance or transit activity

Packages showing only “label created” status may not qualify for payout processing.

Important Notes

• Drop ship approval is granted at the discretion of Pristine Auction.
• Sellers must maintain fulfillment standards and shipment reliability.
• Failure to meet drop ship requirements may result in removal from the program.
• Certain item categories may not qualify for drop shipping.
