HRS §490:9-319
Who owns goods a consignee holds
This section says that while a consignee has goods, the consignee is treated as having the same ownership rights as the consignor, for purposes of the consignee's creditors and buyers. But if the consignor has a perfected security interest that would beat a creditor, other law decides the consignee's rights.

The statute, as written — Rights and title of consignee with respect to creditors and purchasers
(a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b), for purposes of determining the rights of creditors of, and purchasers for value of goods from, a consignee, while the goods are in the possession of the consignee, the consignee is deemed to have rights and title to the goods identical to those the consignor had or had power to transfer. (b) For purposes of determining the rights of a creditor of a consignee, law other than this article determines the rights and title of a consignee while goods are in the consignee's possession if, under this part, a perfected security interest held by the consignor would have priority over the rights of the creditor.
