CME SELL, TRADE, & CONSIGNMENT - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
*For any trade or selling transactions at Chicago Music Exchange, due to the potentially sensitive nature of some of the finish materials used on instruments and the pending weather factor changes, we will typically wait up to 24 hours to open the gear sent to us. Then another 24-48 hours to process the instrument. We appreciate your patience!
*Due to unpredictable taxes and duties, CME typically does not purchase internationally.
*And when it comes time to ship vintage and used instruments we can help make it easy, safe, and painless! Check out our guide on How to Ship A Guitar!
