Used Games & Puzzles
Do you have some games that don't quite get the play time they deserve? Is space a consideration? Or are you coming up short on funds for the latest hotness?
Then the Little Shop of Magic's Used Games & Puzzles program is just right for you!
We are currently accepting used board games, game books (such as RPGs), and jigsaw puzzles to sell. Miniatures, novels, toys, dice, collectibles, and other items are not being accepted.
A seller is limited to a maximum of five items for sale at any point in time in our used games and puzzle departments. Exceptions can be made for bundles and other special situations: please ask one of our Wizards for assistance. Within reason, the seller may sell a “set” of items as a single item (such as a game plus expansions, or a set of RPG books). These items will be shrink-wrapped together and presented and sold as a single item.
Seller must complete a Used Game Submission Form for each item offered for sale: blank copies of this form are available in our shop. An electronic version of the Submission form is also available on our website, allowing you to fill it out and print or email it to us prior to dropping off your item(s). The seller is expected to be honest about the condition of their item. Our Wizards will review the Submission Form and suggest changes if they deem it appropriate. These forms will be available to view by potential buyers who request them.
Seller determines a single asking price in whole dollars for the item, starting at a minimum of $5.00. This price will be non-negotiable and our Wizards will only sell that item at that price. Additionally item sets will not be broken up. Upon submission, and within a reasonable amount of time, our Goblins will prepare the used game for sale. We will attach a Used Game Condition and Price fact sheet to the item (adhesive free), and shrink wrap it before shelving. This fact sheet includes the asking price of the game and a summary of the Submission Form condition report.
Once shelved, an item will be given at least 60 days to sell. After that time, our Wizards may ask that the seller take the item back. An unsold item may not be submitted for sale again for at least another 60 days. Items that are being returned to the seller will be held for 30 days after notification. Items not picked up within the 30 day period are considered abandoned and become the property of the Little Shop of Magic. Please contact us if you require extra time.
Upon the sale of an item, the buyer has a 3 day window to return the item if he or she does not agree with the Submission Form condition report. This is the only condition under which we will accept a used game return. Within 7 business days after the sale (or as soon as possible), the seller will receive a store credit for 70% of the asking price of the item, as submitted by the seller. The Little Shop of Magic will collect and remit any State and County Sales Taxes associated with the purchase on behalf of the seller.
Our Wizards retain the right to refuse to accept any item due to demand, condition, appropriateness, existing copies already for sale, or any other reason. A Used Game is sold on consignment and remains the property of the original owner until such a time as it sells or is removed from circulation. The Little Shop of Magic does not directly purchase preowned items for resale, but we will assume responsibility for the care of the item while in our possession.
