BICZ Consignment Program

Overview

BICZ is testing out a zine consignment program!

We’re always looking for events where we can exhibit our own publications, such as A Look Inside Brampton and The JAM. We also want to bring zines made by our members to these events!

Through our zine consignment program, we will sell your zines on your behalf at zine fairs and art markets (such as Zine Dream and Mississauga Comic Expo). Our first test of this program was at Zine Dream 16 on August 15, 2026.

How It Works

To participate, you will need to fill out this form. It will ask for information about you and the zines you wish to consign to us. We will accept a maximum of two zine titles per program participant.

After submitting the form, you will then have to drop off 1-3 copies of your submitted zine(s) at BICZ's monthly meetups. If you cannot make it to the meetup, you can also arrange a drop-off date with an organizer via the form. After submitting the form, you will then have to drop off a few copies of your submitted zine at an upcoming BICZ meetup or arrange this with one of our organizers by emailing us at biczbrampton@gmail.com. We will then display your zines and sell them on your behalf at our table!

Payout

For each zine we sell on your behalf, 70% of the proceeds will go to you and 30% will go to BICZ. Please price your zines accordingly!

The 30% of proceeds that go to BICZ will be used to support our programming and fund future collaborative projects.

If your zines sell at a zine festival, we will pay you in cash at BICZ’s following monthly meetup.

Rules

Program Eligibility

To participate in this program, you must either be a Brampton resident or have some connection to Brampton (such as growing up in Brampton, or working here).

Zine Submissions

  • You are not allowed to submit zines that were not made by you to our consignment program.

    • However, you can submit zines that were made by you in collaboration with other people. In this case, you must ensure that you have your co-creators’ permission to sell the zines through this program before you submit the zine consignment form.

  • Zines with any sort of hateful content are not allowed in this consignment program. Additionally, we will not accept zines that were made (in part or in full) by generative AI.

  • At the time of this writing, we are accepting a maximum of two different zines per program participant. 

    • You can submit up to three copies of each zine title.

Consignment Duration:

BICZ will continue to sell your zines on your behalf at events and/or markets until you contact us to end your consignment period. You are free to end your consignment period at any time—just email biczbrampton@gmail.com and we will arrange for your zines to be returned to you.
