FAQ
Since 1996. See you at The Station!
Do you purchase items from individuals?
The “store” does not purchase items from individuals, but our vendors do (including those who work for the store). If you have items that you think fit the style and personality of our store, please send pictures to our email at coalfieldstation@gmail.com. Include your name, phone number, a brief description of your items, and any other pertinent information (such as age, condition, relative provenance, etc.). We will share your pictures with vendors who sell similar items. They will get in touch with you directly if they are interested in purchasing.
How do I become a vendor at your store?
We are always interested in speaking with potential vendors who can offer new and exciting ideas and merchandise. We rent booths of varying sizes by the square foot. We also rent showcases. We currently have a waiting list of potential vendors. If you are interested in renting space, please stop by the store to complete an application and make an appointment to speak with one of the owners.
Do you sell items on consignment?
We often sell large items as well as collections of small items on consignment. Please stop by the store to complete an application and make an appointment to speak with one of the owners for a full explanation of terms and conditions.
Do you offer delivery services on large items?
We do not provide an in-house delivery service at this time. However, we provide contact information for preferred movers for you to coordinate your delivery.
What if I can’t pick up large items right away?
Large items may remain for a brief time in the store. The expectation is that the item will be picked up within six days after the day of purchase by you or a delivery service. Please remember to bring assistance for loading large items. Beginning on the seventh day after purchase, a fee of $5 per item per day will be applied. After thirty days from the day of purchase, if no arrangement has been made, the item may be considered abandoned. At this point, the item may be liquidated with no refund to offset storage expenses.
I live out of town but saw something in your store on social media that interests me. Is it possible to make purchases remotely?
It is possible to make a credit card purchase over the phone by calling our direct number (804-794-7425) during business hours. Currently, we are not able to make internet sales. Keep in mind that we do not provide shipping. Items purchased remotely must be picked up within six days after the day of purchase. Beginning on the seventh day after purchase, a fee of $5 per item per day will be applied.
