Consignment Store Location
Origins Registration Opens in March
Hello everyone. We are on track to open registration as planned on March (date to be determined). The Deadline to register items will be June 13, 2026.
Please review our FAQ page for any questions you may have.
- One thing to be aware of – if you sold with us last year at Origins but not at Gen Con, you would need to create a new account. For convenience and less confusion, we have combined our two sites into one, however we are not able to migrate any Origins accounts to the combined database.
- Let us know if you have any additional questions or concerns. You can visit us on our Discord Server where we can answer your questions very quickly.
Origins Game Fair is an annual tabletop gaming convention hosted by GAMA: The Tabletop Game Association, held annually in Columbus, OH. With 6,000+ gaming events scheduled throughout the week for attendees, a dynamic vendor hall, special events throughout the weekend and so much more, there’s sure to be something for everyone!
Happy New Year – 2026 is here!
Now is the perfect time to start going through your closets and collections – the Origins Consignment Store will be back for 2026.
New for this year:
- Multiple day pricing will be in place – different prices can now be set for Friday and Saturday
What will be the same:
- The location will remain the same
- Drop off registered items will be on Thursday
- Sales days will be on Friday and Saturday
- Seller payout and unsold item pick-up will be on Sunday
Item pre-registration will open in March (date to be determined)
We are planning for Origins 2026
Hello everyone – hopefully everyone had a wonderful summer and are looking forward to the upcoming holiday season.
We are currently working on getting the website updated ahead of 2026 registration.
Look forward to seeing 2-day pricing for this year at Origins Game Fair 2026 – any other changes will be communicated in the coming months ahead of registration opening on March 1, 2026.
Thank you note
As we were doing seller payouts, two people approached me and dropped off this note of appreciation.

Waiver Process
Agreement:
In exchange for a faster auction check-in process you agree to the following:
- You shall advise us of any known items that were pre-registered but are not being dropped off.
- You recognize that we are not scanning each item individually.
- Should an item appear to be missing at the end of the auction, not being recorded as sold and not being among the items returned to the seller, the auction will be held harmless against the loss, since we cannot verify that the item was turned over to us.
- You are trusting the auction to do everything it can to prevent items from being misplaced.
Waiver forms can be signed onsite if electing to use this option.
We are extending registration deadlines by 1 day
Maybe we were looking at the wrong calendar year.
Maybe we were thinking it was a leap year.
Regardless – our intent each year is to give you all an entire weekend to get your items registered ahead of Gen Con.
- Live Auction registration is now extended to end of day (23.59.59) on July 20, 2025.
- Store registration is now extended to end of day (23.59.59) on July 27, 2025.
Please remember also that no one will be permitted to enter a registration line unless all items are tagged and ready to be processed.
We look forward to seeing you all in Indianapolis.
July 20 is the Live Auction Deadline
