1- Bijou Buys and accepts Donations of magazines and other sexual items
If you are looking to rid yourself of sexual materials to make space, or you have no use for these items anymore, or you want them to be in loving respectful hands, we will gladly except them under our standard condition (please read a-i). If they meet our requirements for purchase or donating we will pay for the freight. Please read our requirements below. Thank you
We buy magazines, movies brochures, 8mm films, used toys and other erotic materials.
You've been cleaning out your closet, or your moving, or a friend left you a few boxes of magazine, 8mm films, movies brochures, dildo's who knows what? And your looking to get rid of them, or make room for new items: you can either throw them away, or donate them to your local gay organization. Or if you think they are worth a lot of money, then try selling them on ebay (good luck to you), or call Bijou.
We buy magazines and other sexually oriented materials but we need informed, truthful information first. But please remember that for Bijou all items must be in very good to excellent condition, if not we have no use for them. So please read and follow our requirements listed below.
a- What magazines or items are your selling?
b- If what you have are magazines, what are the names and series number of the magazines? (all items must be listed and described)
c- What are the dates of the magazines?
d- How many magazines do you have?
e- What are the condition of the magazines or items?
f- Are the covers torn, creased, worn, spine split? Are pages missing, loose or cut, staples rusted, centerfold missing or loose etc. (Are the items broken, etc)
g- If the item is a VHS tape (or Beta) what condition is it in? Is it playable? Did it come come from a rental store? If so we have no use for the tape, to much use and abuse. Does the tape come in its original box?
h- If the item is a DVD, is the paying surface scratched or have any foreign substance attached to the playing surface? If it is not in good working and clean order we have no use for it. Does the DVD come in its original case?
i- Dildo's, leather, sexual toys, bondage equipment, paddles, whips, floggers, tit clamps etc. Al must be in good condition.
Bijou's inventory procedure and purchase price offering
Bijou's procedure for inventorying magazines and other items is; we go over the condition of each item and place our notes into the items folder. We then package the item, assign the item an inventory number, put the item into the computer and on the website and then store them for easy access.
So you understand, do not expect to sell magazine's or other items to Bijou for what you think the going retail price should be (everyone thinks what they have is worth a lot of money). So if you want to try your hand at getting what you feel the items are worth, then spend time putting in the effort to open an ebay account, learn the ebay store procedures, list the items and wait to sell them. We at Bijou buy wholesale we do not pay much for most magazines because we already have 25,000 magazines in inventory and adding daily (same goes for VHS, DVD's etc). If what you have is of interest to us please take into consideration that Bijou will also incur the cost of the shipping, and that will be reflected in the negotiated price.
Expiration of offer
Bijou's purchase price offer will be emailed to you, the offer is good for 30 days from the date of the email. If you accept our offer within that 30 days we must receive a conformation email that you accept the offer and all merchandise must be received within that 30 day period. If materials are received after that 30 period the original offer in void. At that point we will either offer a new purchasing price for the materials or the materials will be shipped back to you.
Payment
After the receiving the materials we will inspect materials for quantity, titles and condition. If the materials are not accurately described we will ship them back to you with no payment. When you send the materials you must also include your name and address so we know who to make the check out to and the address to send the check to. Also when you send the materials you will need to confirm that you shipped the materials by email in which you should also put in your name and mailing address in the email.
If everything is in order a check will be sent out to you within a week of receiving the materials and an email sent to you confirming payment. If you would want Bijou product in place of a check please let us know what merchandise you want.
Donating magazines etc to Bijou
If you want to donate magazines and other items to Bijou, again we would need accurate information about those items (list of what information we need is listed above a-i). If the materials you want to donate are to our standards, we will pay for the shipping of those items by sending you our UPS number. But please remember that the secure packaging instruction listed above also apply to donations.
Shipping
We will send you our UPS number for you to ship the items to Bijou. All items must be packaged very, very securely with extra padding so the items are not destroyed or damaged in the shipping. All merchandise will be shipped ground unless instructed otherwise by Bijou. (We have seen what some people think is secure, padded and tightly sealed). Please remember that shipping is at your own risk and you will not be reimbursed for the damage unless a UPS truck runs over the package. We have had people negotiate their items with us that did not accurately describe the items, and ship them stating that the shipper damaged them. There was no possible way the shipper could have damaged those items unless they were used, abused and enjoyed by a few hundred men in the shipping process in route to Bijou.
Yours, Steven Toushin
2- Shipping
Bijou ships UPS and USPS, we only ship to the billing address of the card holder.. We do not ship to Post office Box's. We do not Ship to Utah, Tennessee, Mississippi,
3- Shipping charges for UPS, USPS
Our preferred shipper is UPS unless requested to ship through the U.S Post Office (USPS).
The $9.00 UPS charge (for the first item, a dollar for each additional item) is for standard ground shipping that includes insurance for your order if lost or damaged, and the tracking for your package as well. UPS delivers to most areas of the continental US within 3-4 days.
The average USPS charge for sending a First Class package is $2.46. This does not include insuring your item nor the ability for accurate tracking of the package. For insurance and tracking purposes, we would need to send the package Registered mail which costs an additional id="mce_marker"1.75, making the total cost for shipping a package securely id="mce_marker"4.21.
We ship USPS when requested. We stay away from using the U.S. Post Office because of our past problematic experiences. A- The post office was erratic in deliveries which lead to many customer calling asking us, where was their package/order and when will it be delivered . B- Accurately tracing packages sent through the Post Office that are not shipped Registered mail is next to impossible.
So we believe the $9 fee for UPS service is a much better bargain for you. You will receive your package promptly, you may track it's progress and know when it will arrive. Should your package get lost in transit, Bijou will replace your order immediately at no additional charge. If your order is damaged in transit you will have to call UPS and file a claim and then sent us a copy of that claim (so we will be able to collect from USP). Once that is done Bijou will replace your order immediately.
4- International Shipping
Bijou only ships to the card holders billing address. We do not ship to Post Office Box's.
Because of the variety of merchandise, weights and shipping options, our online system is unable to determine a precise shipping rate for international orders. But for certain orders through the Post Office we do have a standardized International rate.
We are able to ship International order's that fit into a Priority Flat Rate envelope – That would consist of 1-2 DVDs, or 1-4 magaines, or any merchandize of equal volume. Priority Flat Rate envelopes can be shipped to Canada for 14.00 US and else where around the world for 17.00 US.
Shipping rates for larger orders will be provided once your order has been received. This shipping rate will be sent to you via email for your approval before your order would be processed and shipped.
Please send any questions pertaining to international orders to
