The consignment store is a new lot assignment in The Sims 3: Ambitions.

Sims are able to sell things like inventions, paintings, or gems. Sims can bring paintings, inventions, and sculptures to the shop and put them on display for other Sims to buy. Sims can build a reputation at the store, making sales more profitable. If a Sim's reputation is high, more Sims will buy his or her stuff. The store sells items every day at 5 PM / 17:00. Similar to collections, the consignment shop is in a Sim's skill journal. A chart of all the items sold by the Sim is given.

The longer their items are for sale, the more they decrease in price:

  • 1 Day at the shop: Selling price = 200%
  • 2 Days at the shop: Selling price = 170%
  • 3 Days at the shop: Selling price = 130%
  • 4 Days at the shop: Selling price = 110%
  • 5 Days at the shop: Selling price = 100%

An object that isn't sold by the end of day 5 is returned[1]. Selling the same object frequently will decrease the price and the shop clerk will inform you that customers are getting bored. As a Sim's reputation increases, the percentage that the store will take for having to stock the items decreases;

  • 0 Reputation = 15% Taken off
  • 200 Reputation = 10% Taken off
  • 4,000 Reputation = 5% Taken off
  • 8,000 Reputation = 0% Taken off

Sims who have the Born Salesman trait will gain reputation faster. Also, Sims who have the Suave Selling Lifetime Reward will sell their goods for more.
