Items purchased from the consignment store will be charged sales tax.

Buyer’s Premium

All transactions are subject to a Buyer’s Premium of 3%; this is waived if the customer is using cash.

We look forward to seeing everyone in Columbus and Indianapolis!

New Users – Please Note

There is a known bug for new users – the website is not re-directing some to confirm their profiles.

(UPDATE – this was corrected on the evening of 5/19)

Our team is currently working on getting this fixed.

We apologize for the inconvenience and further delay that some of you may be experiencing.

Origins 2026 Registration is now Open!

Reminder

When you have created/confirmed an account with our updated site, the Overview page will have a toggle between our two current shows – Origins and Gen Con.

Please ensure that you have selected the correct event for your items – we will not be able to accept any items onsite unless they are registered with that event. On the the profile page you are also agreeing to the conditions listed for each show (Origins shown below for example).

Origins

Some differences between the two events to keep in mind:

  • Origins: Store only with prices for Friday and Saturday
  • Gen Con: Store has three days of prices (Thursday, Friday, Saturday)
  • Gen Con: the only show with live auction

Breaking the Silence

Hello everyone.

We are working behind the scenes and hoping to make announcements soon about registration dates for both Origins and Gen Con.

We will post on Facebook and in the Discord channel when we are able to open things up.

Be sure to get your badges for Origins and Gen Con!

Looking forward to seeing everyone soon!
