Website Photography

One of the many things that separates us from the majority of other shops is we photograph each individual guitar in stock for the website. This gives the customer a great idea of the actual wood grain/finish they will receive when they place an order.

Please note - For any guitars under £400, or any guitar with a block finish we may use an example image of the guitar. Any guitar with a figured finish or unique colour will have it's own individual image. If we sell one of these guitars and have more than 1 in stock, the listing will display ' Actual Image Arriving Soon ' until the new image is uploaded.

Warranties

New items come with a minimum 12 month warranty against manufacturer defect.

Some manufacturers offer extended warranties which will be enclosed with the product.

Second hand items come with a 3 month warranty against manufacturer defect.

When an ex-demonstration ('ex-demo') model is sold it may not necessarily be in perfect condition and have had repairs, marks, scratches and/or other defects. Customers should check the goods are of a satisfactory condition for their particular use and requirement before purchasing.

Pre Owned Item Condition Ratings

We use a simple method of rating the condition of pre owned items. If the product is used, the product name will say

'Pre Owned' then the year of production (if known), followed by a short key/code.

Code                       Rating of out 10                       Description

Mint                       10/10                       Like new

Day Returns Policy - Mail Order/Online Sales Only

Goods may be returned to Guitar Village up to 7 days after date of purchase for a full refund or exchange provided that:

1. The goods are returned in the same condition they were sold, including all original packaging materials.

2. The goods are a normal stock item and have not been specially ordered at the customer's request.

Delivery and collections are the customers responsability and are non refundable.

Your rights to return goods are protected under the EU Distance Selling Directive which can be found at http://www.hmso.gov.uk/si/si2000/20002334.htm

Cancellations / Refunds

Refunds can only be made by the method originally used to pay for the goods.

Credit/debit card refunds will be processed within 30 days but usually at our earliest convenience.

Please note transactions usually don't show up instantly.

Credit Card Security

We are now implementing 3D Secure on all online transactions.

3D Secure authentication requires the cardholder to register their card to take advantage of this service. This is a one time process which takes place on the card issuers website and involves the cardholder answering several security questions to which only the card issuer and cardholder will know the answer. The cardholder selects a password and agrees on a secret phrase, which will be used by the card issuer during each online transaction.

3D Secure can be thought of as an online version of Chip and Pin technology, whereby the cardholder has a personalised password registered with their card that is entered during the checkout process. 3D Secure is predicted to become the industry standard by the end of 2007 and all online consumers will soon become as familiar with this, as when they enter their Pin number at a cash machine or till in a shop.

Credit card details are not held by Guitar Village or on any website.

VAT

For orders made from the UK or the European Union, 20% VAT is already included in the price stated on the website.

If we are shipping outside the UK or European Union, the 20% VAT can be removed. Please contact us for more info.
