Sales Guidelines
-
Seller determines price. PVQA will collect a commission of 25% of the Sales Price, not including sales tax. Thus, you will receive 75% of the Sales Price listed on your item. Please price your items accordingly.
-
To calculate the Sales Price, determine the amount you would like to receive. Divide this number by .75. Round up to nearest dollar.
-
For example, if you wish to receive $200, calculate the price as follows:
-
$200 ÷ .75 = $266.669
Round up to the nearest dollar = $267
Sales Price = $267
75% to Seller = $200.25
25% to PVQA = $66.75
-
-
9% sales tax will be added to your Sales Price and collected from the buyer.
-
Payment will be mailed to seller within 14 days after the show closes.
-
Quilts are to remain in the show. Buyers will receive a claim check to pick up quilts from the Crosetti Building, between 4:45 and 5:15pm on Sunday, February 26, 2023.
