Buckeye Express Stores Page

This website is under development.

We will have three different Stores, some in the same room.

Company Store

General Information

The Company Store will take cash or personal checks for payments. The Company Store will NOT accept credit cards at this time. Sorry for the inconvenience. The Company Store will not engage in any negotiations regarding your marked selling price. If you negotiate a different price with a buyer, you still owe a 10% commission on the original marked price. Settlement with sellers will be by check mailed within two weeks following the Buckeye Express Convention.

Gondola

The oxide red Buckeye Steel Casting gondolas will be available in the Company Store as long as they last.

Convention Merchandise

Convention shirts and hats will NOT be available for sale at the Company Store.

Swap Sales

General Information

You can sell your new or gently used railroad-related items at the Swap Store in the Company Store. The Company Store will keep a 10% commission from the sale of ALL items sold. All of your items must be marked with a price, including the 10% commission, when you drop them off at the Company Store. Please mark any items missing parts or non-operating with "AS IS."

Division Sales

Bring your items and the previously filled-out Merchandise List to the Company Clerk for check-in.

Individual Member Sales

The Company Store staff will provide you with a three-part Transaction Record for each item you plan to sell in the Company Store. Plan to pick up the Transaction Record and fill it out in your room or the hotel lobby. There will NOT BE ROOM in the Company Store to fill out the Transaction Record. Your sellers Number is your Convention Registration Number. There is an initial maximum limit of twenty (20) items sold per individual. Each TRANSACTION RECORD AND ITEMS MUST BE CHECKED BY The Company Store Clerk BEFORE the item is placed on display. The Clerk will return the bottom copy of the Transaction Record as your pickup receipt.

ALL Sales

Settlement with sellers will be by check mailed within two weeks following the Buckeye Express Convention. Unsold items must be picked up after the Banquet. If they are not picked up within two hours after the banquet ends, they become the property of the Buckeye Division. If you want unsold items shipped to you, you will have to pay shipping and handling charges.

Raffle

Raffle Tickets

Buckeye Express Convention staff members will wander through the Convention, selling Raffle Tickets. Raffle tickets can also be purchased at the Company Store. One (1) Raffle Ticket costs $1, or six (6) Raffle Tickets for $5. Ask about our special Wing-Span Tickets.

Raffle Prizes

Raffle prizes will be displayed in the Company Store with a ticket container. Put one part of the two-part Raffle Ticket into the container in front of the Raffle prize you want to win. You can put as many Raffle Tickets into the container as you wish. It only takes one Raffle Ticket to win, but the more Raffle Tickets you place in the container, the better chance of winning. Names are not required on a Raffle Ticket put into the container, but putting your Convention Registration Number will help us contact winners.

Winning Raffle Tickets

The winning Raffle Tickets for each Raffle prize will be drawn on Saturday afternoon after 3:15 p.m. The winning Raffle Numbers will be displayed outside the Company Store. Distributing Raffle prizes to winners (bring your Raffle Ticket) will be from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday afternoon and will continue after the Banquet if needed. All unclaimed Raffle prizes become the property of the Buckeye Division if not claimed within two hours after the end of the Banquet.
