When you come into Sharpless Auctions you will need to see the cashier.  The cashier will give you the necessary paperwork that needs to be filled out. (Remember: Driver License) After your paperwork is complete the cashier will direct you to where you need to unload.  If you have quite a few items, it is helpful if you have already made a list of your items to sell.  To print off a consignment form from your computer, click HERE.
