Which BCSS Edition Is Right for You?

About BCSS Editions - Intro, Deluxe, Diamond and Virtual

Free Updates - No "free with annual support".

Data Delete - Inactive consignors and old inventory records can be removed to speed up processing.

Data Import/Export - Import data into BCSS (except Intro) from spreadsheets or export data for use in other programs like Microsoft Excel and QuickBooks.

Online Data Backup - In every BCSS edition, one press of a button uploads your important data files to our server for safe keeping - for free.

BCSS Intro is a starter program that records and manages consignors, sales, settlements and disbursements information. It processes sales (including auto-computation of sales tax(es), change due customer and settlements due consignors). It prints address labels, price labels and checks.

It auto-fills and prints editable consignment agreements with consignor and shop information. Basic important sales and consignor reports are included. It's an all-around good egg for just $159. After 2 years (3 payments) Intro is auto-upgraded to Deluxe and no further payments are due.

Inventory and discounts are entered at the point of sale, avoiding data entry of items that never sell. It's also suitable for shops that don't need or want to track unsold inventory, yet, price labels can be printed.

Intro is a simple program that does a whole lot. Users with simple needs love it!

BCSS Deluxe prints price labels and hang tags with or without bar codes. It reads bar codes. It 'batches' many functions so processes like settlements, label and check printing can be done at the flick of a button.

Deluxe can auto-discount or manually discount aged inventory. Each inventory category can have its own discount schedule. The number of reports jump from a few essentials in Intro to over 300.

Deluxe handles buy outright, layaway, house-account, rentals and special sales promotions. The newest additions are data import/export from/to spreadsheets and export to QuickBooks.

BCSS Diamond supports thermal price label printing (with bar codes), complete management of buyers and employees (each with a different commission schedule and a different level of access to areas in BCSS). Cash drawers can be audited at any time. Sold inventory can be sent and retrieved from storage. Networking (multiple computers sharing the same data) - Mall space rental management...

Thermal Labels: adhesive, removable, hang tags and jewelry labels all with bar codes.

BCSS Virtual allows consignors to access their account information online. New features will be added in the future. Please email us for updates.

Pricing - The final cost of BCSS is less than its initial price for 2 very important reasons: There are no fees after purchase and you can sell BCSS when you no longer need it. These remarkable differences are tremendous cost savings to you.

1 Annual renewal $189 Before you get locked into a software program, consider: Networking - As your business grows, you will need more computers. A copy of the consignment software must be purchased for each computer. Copies can be as much as $295 to $395 and the annual support fee is increased, depending upon the number of copies in use. Software Ownership - You own BCSS and can resell it at any time. Other programs are 'license only' which only allows use of the software. Annual Fees - There are no recurring fees with BCSS. Almost all other programs charge $100 and more per year. Free support is available from BCSS, Dell and POS-X covering the software, the computer and the hardware (cash drawer, receipt printer, scanner). Get the facts. Be smart. Save money!
