Valvidia Policies
📜 Valvidia Policies
We do everything we can to keep things simple and fair for families — but we also need a few clear rules so everyone’s on the same page.
💸 Service Fee
There’s no upfront payment when you schedule a pickup or drop-off.
Instead, a $10 processing fee per item is deducted only after an item sells. This covers:
-
Local pickup (within Magic Valley)
-
Inspection, cleaning (if needed), and storage
-
Professional photography & listing
-
Buyer communication, packaging, and shipping
-
Platform fees and handling costs
📆 Unsold Items
If an item doesn’t sell within 120 days, we donate it to a local nonprofit partner.
If you prefer to reclaim it before the 120-day mark, a $10 processing fee per item applies. Returns are only available for local pickups. We do not return items shipped or mailed to us.
🧸 Item Acceptance
We only accept items that meet our What We Accept guidelines.
Any items found to be broken, recalled, incomplete, unsafe, or under $25 resale value may be discarded or donated at our discretion.
💥 Liability
Valvidia is not responsible for damage, loss, or failure to store your items after they’re submitted. By consigning with Valvidia, you agree that:
-
All items are owned by you and in working, resaleable condition
-
Items are not recalled, expired, damaged, or unsafe
-
You release Valvidia from responsibility for theft, fire, water damage, loss, or storage issues
💰 Payouts
-
Payouts are issued after the buyer’s 3-day return window
-
Minimum payout balance required: $5
-
Choose between direct deposit or store credit
-
Payouts must be claimed within 365 days or they are forfeited
🚫 No Returns to Seller for Mail-Ins
If you mailed in your items and they don’t sell, they cannot be returned.
All unsold mail-in items will be donated after 120 days.
