Because of the specific audience that the Vintage Computer Festival
is targeting, this is a prime venue for marketing old computers, peripherals,
manuals and software that are sitting in closets and back rooms collecting
dust. The venue is indoors with ample lighting and each vendor space
features an electrical hook-up. Security personnel are present
during the off-hours of the event to insure against theft of or damage to
inventory items.
Each space at the Vintage Computer Festival Marketplace measures 10' x 10'
and features an electrical outlet. Booth rental is $100.00. 8' tables
are available for rent at an additional $10; chairs will be provided at no
extra cost. Spaces are limited and are assigned on a first come, first
served basis, so we suggest you make your reservations as far in advance as
possible.
Consignment Sales
The VCF also maintains a consignment selling area. If you have
something to sell that doesn't warrant renting an entire booth to do so,
let the VCF sell it for you! There's no charge if it doesn't sell,
but if it does we take 15% of the sale as a fee and the rest goes to you.
There's no easier way to sell your old computer stuff.
Here's how it works: On Sunday, September 16, come to the Vintage
Computer Festival with your items and ask for the consignment area.
From there you will fill out a simple form describing what you're selling
and how much you want for it.
We'll then put it out for sale. All you need to do is come back
at the end of the day (5:00pm) If your item was sold, we give you
your money minus a 15% consignment fee. If it didn't sell, you take
your item back and there is no further obligation.
For more information, send e-mail to consignment@vintage.org.
Seller's Permit
Vendors must have a valid California Seller's Permit in order to sell
items at the Vintage Computer Festival. Occasional sellers (those who
only sell items to clear out a garage for instance) are exempt, but please
check with the Board of Equalization to be sure you meet the criteria of an
occasional seller. If you do not currently have a permit, you can
obtain one either in person or by mail from any office of the
Board of Equalization. It is your
responsibility to determine if you are required to have a Seller's Permit to
sell at the VCF. The VCF cannot assist you with this, so for more
information, please contact:
