Inventory Aging Schedule - Consignment Management Tool

Managing the Shelf-Life of Goods

In the world of resale, inventory is like perishable produce; the longer it sits, the less value it retains. An inventory aging schedule allows you to see exactly how much of your capital—or your consignors' potential payout—is tied up in items that have been on the floor too long. By segmenting your active items into time-based buckets, you can make informed decisions about when to trigger discounts or when to rotate stock to keep the shopping experience fresh for your regulars.

Interpreting Your Aging Data

A healthy consignment shop typically sees about 50-60% of its inventory in the 0-30 day bucket. If your 91+ day bucket is growing, it indicates that your initial pricing may be too high or your intake process is accepting items that do not align with current market demand. Regularly reviewing this schedule helps you maintain a high-velocity sales floor, which is the key to maximizing revenue per square foot and keeping your consignors happy with quick payouts.
