Good to know
- Ontario Personal Property Security Act: a consignment that works like security is covered, and courts look at the substance of the deal. To be safe, consignors commonly register a financing statement (and, where needed, give notice to the store's secured lenders) before delivering goods. In BC, Alberta and other western provinces the PPSA covers commercial consignments directly.
- Count the goods together at delivery and sign the list. Take photos.
- The store charges HST on each sale. If the owner is HST-registered, sort out with an accountant who reports the tax.
