Consignment & Used Gear

Not everything belongs here.

Sonic Temple exists for tools that have earned their place — through use, survival, and relevance.
If you’re looking to move gear quickly or maximize every last dollar, there are easier options.

If you care where your gear ends up, keep reading.

WHAT WE CONSIDER

We focus on professional audio tools with a track record:

  • Studio and live-use equipment

  • Pro audio, recording, and electronic instruments

  • Vintage, rare, discontinued, or hard-to-replace gear

  • Select modern gear that has proven itself under real use

Condition matters — but history isn’t a flaw.
Working, non-working, and serviceable items may all be considered.

HOW IT WORKS

In some cases, we’ll make a direct purchase offer.
In others, we’ll recommend consignment.

Consignment is slower — and usually fairer.
Your gear is listed, represented accurately, and sold to someone who understands its value.
Payment is issued once the item sells.

Commission varies based on the item and what’s required to stand behind it.

ABOUT PRICE (READ THIS)

In most cases, we expect you to have an asking price.

This isn’t about paying less — it’s about clarity.

Running a shop that services, tests, stores, photographs, markets, and guarantees used gear has real costs. If an item sells for $1,000, a large portion of that goes to keeping standards intact.

You may get more money selling privately.
You’ll almost certainly spend more time doing it.

We’re here for people who value judgment, representation, and trust.

WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU

  • Clear photos

  • Accurate descriptions

  • Known issues disclosed upfront

  • An asking price (when possible)

If something doesn’t line up once we inspect it, we’ll talk before anything moves forward.

No surprises. No games.

IS THIS RIGHT FOR YOU?

If you want speed, this may not be the right fit.
