A vendor may choose to sell its goods on a consignment basis. In a consignment transaction, the vendor, as consignor, delivers goods to the buyer, as consignee. The consignee then either holds the goods for sale or uses the goods to manufacture a finished product. As a general rule, the consignor retains title to its consigned goods, and does not record a sale of the goods until the consignee has either sold or used the goods.
