How the Consignment Process Works
Step 1: Complete the Consignment Form
Provide basic information about yourself and your firearm. Include condition details and clear photos so we can properly evaluate and prepare your listing.
Step 2: Ship or Bring It In
Once your form is reviewed, our team will contact you with next steps. You may either:
Ship the firearm to VanTon Arms (following all legal shipping requirements)
Bring it directly to our location in Casey, Iowa
We will confirm receipt and begin the listing process.
Step 3: Stay Updated and Receive Payment
You will receive updates once your firearm is listed and when it sells. After the sale is finalized and funds clear, payment is issued within 7–14 business days.
Fees and Payment Distribution
Commission Structure
- 15% commission on firearms sold for $1,000 or less
- 10% commission on firearms sold for $1,001 or more
The commission is applied to the final sale price before tax.
If the firearm does not sell within the selected consignment term (30, 60, or 90 days), a $15 paperwork fee applies. Per ATF regulations, the firearm must be legally transferred back to you. This requires completion of ATF Form 4473 at our store or shipment to a licensed FFL dealer near you.
Payment Methods
Payments are distributed within 7–14 business days after the completed sale.
You may choose:
- Company check
