consignment shops
Seller-split retail outlets
Consignment shops are retail stores that sell secondhand goods on behalf of their original owners, splitting the proceeds when items sell.
Unlike thrift stores, which accept donations, consignment shops return a percentage to the person who brought the item in.
They typically carry clothing, furniture, or antiques: I found a designer jacket at a consignment shop for half the retail price.
