Terms of Service
Last updated: August 19, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the website operated by Middlebury Consignment LLC, operating Middlebury Furniture & Home Design (“Middlebury,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms.
About This Website
Our website is primarily a catalog of furniture, home furnishings, antiques, vintage pieces, decor, lighting, outdoor furniture, and other showroom inventory.
While products and prices may appear online, availability and final purchase details may require confirmation by our team.
Purchases may be completed directly with our staff by telephone, in person, through a product inquiry, purchase request, or another method offered by us.
Product Availability
Much of our inventory is one-of-a-kind, consigned, vintage, antique, showroom, or limited-quantity merchandise.
Inventory can change quickly.
Submitting an inquiry, adding an item to a cart, or sending a purchase request does not guarantee that the product remains available.
A sale is not final until availability, price, payment, and any applicable pickup or delivery arrangements have been confirmed by our team.
Product Information
We make reasonable efforts to provide accurate product titles, photographs, descriptions, measurements, pricing, condition information, brand information, and other details.
Because many pieces are previously owned, vintage, antique, handmade, unique, or consigned, variations and imperfections may exist.
Measurements may be approximate.
Images may also appear somewhat different depending on lighting, photography, screens, and device settings.
If a particular detail is important to your purchase decision, please contact us before purchasing.
Vintage, Antique, and Consigned Items
Many items offered by Middlebury Furniture & Home Design have prior ownership, age, or use.
These pieces may show normal characteristics associated with their age and history, including:
- Patina
- Surface marks
- Minor scratches
- Finish variation
- Fading
- Small imperfections
- Repairs or restoration
- Normal wear
Such characteristics do not necessarily constitute defects.
We encourage customers to review photographs, descriptions, and condition information and to request additional information when needed before completing a purchase.
Pricing
Prices displayed on the website are intended to reflect current selling prices but may occasionally contain errors or become outdated.
We reserve the right to correct pricing or listing errors before completing a transaction.
Any applicable delivery, shipping, installation, handling, tax, or other charges may be separate from the displayed product price unless specifically stated otherwise.
Holds and Reservations
Unless explicitly agreed to by our team, submitting an inquiry does not place an item on hold.
Because many pieces are one-of-a-kind, inventory generally remains available for purchase until payment or another confirmed arrangement has been completed.
Payments
Payment arrangements may vary depending on the item and transaction.
Where purchases are finalized outside the website, our team will provide the applicable payment instructions.
Do not send sensitive payment information, credit-card numbers, bank-account details, Social Security numbers, or similar confidential financial information through ordinary website inquiry forms.
Pickup and Delivery
Pickup may be available from our Middlebury, Connecticut showroom.
Delivery availability, scheduling, fees, labor requirements, and service area are determined separately based on factors such as location, distance, product dimensions, weight, access conditions, and delivery requirements.
Third-party delivery providers may be used for certain destinations.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, product prices do not include delivery.
Returns and Refunds
Our inventory includes consigned, vintage, antique, floor-model, one-of-a-kind, and other unique merchandise.
Our applicable Refund Policy governs returns and refunds and should be reviewed before completing a purchase.
Where a purchase is designated final sale, it cannot be returned or exchanged except where required by applicable law or otherwise agreed to by us.
Text Messaging
Providing a phone number on our website does not automatically enroll you in promotional text messaging.
If a form contains a separate SMS consent checkbox, you may voluntarily choose to opt in.
By checking the SMS consent box, you agree to receive text messages from Middlebury Consignment LLC regarding your inquiry and occasional promotional messages concerning inventory, sales, events, or offers.
Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for assistance.
Consent to promotional text messages is not a condition of purchase.
Website Communications
If you submit an inquiry or purchase request, we may use the contact information you provide to respond to that request and communicate about the relevant product, purchase, pickup, delivery, or customer-service matter.
Transactional or inquiry-related communications are separate from optional promotional SMS consent.

Unless otherwise stated, website content including photographs, product descriptions, graphics, branding, layout, written content, and other materials is owned by or licensed to Middlebury Consignment LLC.
