PrezCon offers a super-easy market where you can sell your own games on Saturday only. Your purchases get you some great games AND support the convention, since all collected fees help with operating costs. If you have games that are not getting table time, perhaps it's time to rotate them out and add something new, while supporting a convention you love AND avoiding high shipping costs.

Buyers:

• The store has room for 1600 games for sale, and payment is by cash only, so bring plenty of cash to save trips to ATM's and convenience fees!
• Sales start at 9am, with price drops at 11 and 1pm. Sales end at 4pm.
• Visit the store, in the Monroe and James Madison Rooms, between 7pm and 9pm each evening, Tuesday-Friday to browse the game drop offs so far. There's no selling or buying during this time, but you may put your name on a reservation form for one game, so you may purchase it at the early price Saturday morning. In addition to the 7-9pm, Tues-Fri hours, volunteers will likely be working in the store at other times from Monday-Sunday, and you are welcome to drop in if the doors are open.
• Many unsold and donated games will be offered in a Rummage Sale Sunday morning, in the same rooms, from 9:05am to 11am. The price for every game will be just $1. Game bits and "stuff" are mostly $.10 each. Store volunteers go to the head of the line and get a five minute head start.

Sellers:

1. Too late for the Feb. 16 submission deadline? We were at xxxx of the MAX 1600 game limit on the Wednesday before the con. We expect to sell out every small scrap of available shelf and table space before the convention. Save any late lists for next year's store. Please don't bring non-submitted games to the PrezCon store.
2. Download and complete this Excel sheet, leaving lot numbers blank. To minimize scarce volunteer labor, lists must contain a minimum of five lots. Unlike some auction stores, there is no price ceiling. Yes, you can try to sell a game for $500, but note the $.50 fee for any lot that doesn't sell.
3. eMail the completed Excel sheet as soon as you are able (minimizing the chance the store space sells out before you send) info@emsps.com and NO LATER THAN noon on Sunday, February 16! We'll help if there are any technical problems with your sheet, of course, but our process won't handle additions, edits, etc. after the submission is accepted. Please do not change sheet formatting. For example, do not change numbers from 24 to $24.00, change fonts, column headers, etc.
4. We'll send you back a PDF file with completed slips you can print and attach to your games with painters tape. It will look something like this sample. No printer? We'll be happy to print your slips for you for just $1 in materials costs. Just please make certain that we know you need this service. You can pick up any slips we've printed for you at the Auction Store registration desk when you drop off your games. You can use the store's scissors and painter's tape to cut and tape them to your boxes. Can't use Excel? You may make a copy of this Google Sheet, complete it, MAKE IT PUBLIC, and email the link. Didn't get the slips email? It may have been sent to your spam folder, especially if you use GMail. Check your spam folder and read this.
5. We'll have semi-transparent painters tape at the store, but sellers with many games generally attach slips in advance, so they can spend more time gaming and shopping. Something like this (note the early, mid, and late prices folded onto box spine):
   
6. Bring your games to the Monroe Room & James Madison Room between 7 and 9pm on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. Con attendees will have a limited ability to browse (but not buy) games during dropoff times, so the sooner you bring your games, the more buyers will see them. There's a $.50 fee per game you enter, whether or not it sells. In addition to the $.50 listing fee, the store will get 15% of your total sales, rounded up to the nearest $.25. To encourage realistic pricing and save room for games that actually SELL, each game that does NOT sell will be assessed an additional $.50. For example, you submit 12 games, 10 of which sell for a total of $200. Fees would be $6+$30+$1.
7. You MUST collect any unsold games and get your sales proceeds in cash between 5pm and 8pm on Saturday. If you don't pick up your unsold games by 8pm on Saturday, they will be considered donated to the store, with our sincere thanks for supporting us. They might end up in the rummage sale Sunday morning. If you can't collect your sales proceeds in cash by 8pm Saturday, you have seven days after the con is over to request they be sent to a PayPal account.
