Used Equipment Swaps

What Is a "Swap"?
A "Swap" is a tent sale that we have at our location. It is the only time that we will carry used equipment, and it is a great opportunity for anyone to buy or sell their used equipment. Anyone can bring in their old equipment to be displayed to the public. This is an excellent way to update your equipment, or to get some good equipment at a great price, especially if you are just getting into the sport. Aside from the used equipment we also have our always great prices on new equipment, as well as "Swap Specials"

Buying Information:
The swap opens at 10:00am Saturday. The best selection is at 10:00am Saturday morning. Prices are fixed on the equipment for the whole weekend, therefore bids are not accepted. Silent Sports staffs the tent, not the owners of the equipment. The equipment is only at Silent Sports for the designated weekend. Both taxes apply for all products All sales are final on swap products. There are no warranties on swap products. Potential buyers can not preview the equipment before the swap opens on Saturday.

Selling Information:
The swap opens at 10:00am Saturday. The equipment must be registered by either the Friday before the swap or by 10:00am Saturday morning of the swap. Registration is open on Friday from 10:00am to 8:00pm and Saturday from 9:00am to 10:00am. Silent Sports does not charge a registration fee. If the owner of the equipment sells their product then the owner has the choice of either taking a 100% store credit or 80% in cheque. The store credit does not have an expiry date and can be used for any purchase in the store. Store credits and cheques will be issued at the end of the day. If the equipment does not sell, the owner must pick their equipment up before the swap closes or storage fees will be charged. Silent Sports will suggest a selling price for the equipment. The selling price is fixed for the weekend. Silent Sports is not responsible for the owner's equipment when the swap closes Unsold equipment may not be taken out before 3:00pm Saturday

What will I find at the Swap?
The contents of the Swap depend entirely on what is brought in by our customers, we do not know in advanced what product we will have, although there is usually a good variety of styles and price. The best selection is available Saturday mornings, and good deals will go quickly. Please do not call ahead for product information.

How do I find out if my item sold?
To find out if your item has been sold please call. Someone will then check the computer so see if your item has been sold. Please be patient while the staff checks the computer for you.

What happens if my item gets sold?
If your item is sold your account will be credited for the sale amount. This account will be created as per the swap sheet provided at registration. 100% of the total is available as store credit, and this will not expire. If you wish to collect the money from your item, 80% of the total will be provided by cheque at our location.

What happens if my item doesn't sell?
If your item is not sold it is your responsibility to pick up the item as quickly as possible. Any items not picked up may be subject to storage fee's, and Silent Sports is not responsible for lost, damaged or stolen items.

How much is my item worth?
The price of the sale item is entirely in the sellers hands. All we can do is give a rough idea of what the item might sell for based on the quality of the item, and what other similar items are priced at. If you wish to increase the chances of selling your item use the lowest price which you are willing to take.
