Buying & trading

Record a collection arrival

Track customer-owned property in a tray before inspection, acceptance and settlement.

On this page

Before you begin

Open Buy / Trade → Collections.

Access

Staff with buying access; approvals and payouts depend on role. Company feature access and current setup requirements apply.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Record the arrival

    Choose New arrival, select or create the verified customer and assign a tray reference. List the physical items and their declared quantities.

  2. 2

    Keep custody separate from ownership

    Use the collection queue and tray label to find the property. Arrived items remain customer owned and are excluded from sellable inventory.

  3. 3

    Inspect each line

    Open the declared item, confirm the exact SKU and condition, and record reviewed cash and credit offers. Use Unresolved only to find lines still needing identification.

  4. 4

    Follow collection progress

    Move through inspection, acceptance and settlement using the recorded flow. Review the current offer rather than treating the first customer description as verified stock.

Keep in mind

Receiving customer property into a tray does not purchase it. Ownership changes only through the permitted accepted acquisition flow.

Keep unidentified items unresolved until their printing and condition can be established.

If something goes wrong

There is no quote to accept

Inspect the required lines and resolve missing offers. Read the collection’s current progress and any linked online request.
