USED/VINTAGE GEAR:
Used and Vintage gear is, by
definition, old and fragile. This gear is subject to age and handling
wear. Scuffs and scrapes, dents and
dings, repairs, modifications and replacements all are to be expected. So, while Guitar Showcase strives to
accurately document and describe each piece we list, we can only accept
responsibility for what we detail in the listing and what is visible in the
photos. Guitar Showcase is eager to
verify any additional details necessary to address any concerns you may have:
just make sure to contact us with any questions you may have before bidding or buying. Beyond this, Guitar Showcase
can offer no guarantee and can accept no returns on Used or Vintage gear.
Please be sure you know what you are buying, and please do not think that
older, used and Vintage Instruments should be set up in perfect playing
condition.
For high priced Vintage
instruments, we highly recommend that you either have a local friend try the
Instrument or come in and try it in person.
CONSIGNED
GEAR:
Some of the gear in the Guitar Showcase eBay
store is listed on behalf of a consignor.
These pieces are not the property of Guitar Showcase and as such we can
accept no returns on any consigned equipment.
Consigned gear is also subject to the same stipulations as Used and
Vintage gear, as described above. Please
make sure to contact us with any questions you may have before bidding on or buying any consignment item.
INTERNATIONAL
SALES:
Some listed items that contain Rosewood and other
protected species may be ineligible for international sale; please make sure to
read listing details carefully. For eligible sales, Guitar Showcase is happy to
offer international shipping through USPS to select countries, with calculated
shipping cost based on location. Please
contact us PRIOR to purchase for an exact shipping quote to your country. Due to additional expense and complication,
we are unable to accept returns on any international sales and all payments must be pre-arranged, please contact us for
details. CAUTION, SEE BELOW!
Beginning Jan.2, 2017, CITES
documention is required for import and re-export of many newly listed wood
species (including all Rosewoods, not just Brazilian) and items made from them
(like Guitars and their parts). These new rules will not allow the import
or export of most Vintage Guitars and many newer Guitars and other
instruments. We are not able to furnish
the required permits at this time, and in the foreseeable future. You may be able to carry a personally owned
Instrument across your border, but we cannot guarantee this, nor be responsible
for the consequences and you are advised to check with your Country’s
authorities before attempting to do so. The Instruments may be confiscated by
Customs or Border Authorities! For more
