Thrift Shop Consignment Contract

1. 
   Eligibility
   

1. 
   Only valid ID card holders (U.S. Military, Civilian, DOD, & NATO) 18 years of age or older may consign at the WCSC Thrift Shop. Valid card holders are those with active SOFA status.
   
2. 
   Only one account number will be issued per family.
   
3. 
   Consignment privileges will be revoked if the consigner: 1) sells any item to the public while on the WCSC Thrift Shop premises (including the parking lot), 2)Uses the WCSC Thrift Shop as a continuous resale (a home based business). Doing so is in violation of Army Regulation 215-1 and USAREUR Regulation 210-70.
   

The privilege to sell items in the WCSC Thrift Shop does not permit the operation of a business enterprise by individuals. Individuals may not repeatedly purchase or manufacture goods and use the Thrift Shop as a proxy to resell those goods, nor should they take goods from the Reuse/Recycle Center for the purpose of reselling them. Those who do so are violating Army Regulation 215-1 and USAREUR Regulation 210-70 by engaging in a commercial enterprise on a military installation and will lose all Thrift Shop privileges. The regulations are clear that such commercial enterprise is not allowed. The USA Garrison Wiesbaden has the authority to view our records concerning this matter.
