The order is usually confirmed by paying a 20% end price deposit. The rest is expected to be paid after the instrument is ready to get shipped.
In order to maintain fairness to a worldwide clientele, we do list the prices both with and without VAT. Should the VAT apply in your case, we're legally bound to charge 20% tax extra. It usually applies to EU-buyers who do not have a VAT-number assigned. It never applies to buyers outside of the EU, or those who do have a VAT number assigned, no matter their location. Destination countries outside of EU may apply additional custom taxes we have no control of.
| Buyer | VAT applies | custom taxes |
|---|---|---|
| Any buyers outside of EU | ||
| Buyers from within EU with no VAT number assigned | ||
| Buyers from within EU with a valid VAT number assigned | ||
| Any buyers from Slovakia |

Payments are accepted via bank transfer. This is our recommended and preferred way to be paid, as there may be no additional fees charged.
Stripe is a complex payment platform, hence the service charges additional fees depending on your location and currency.
PayPal is an option too, but the service charges additional fees depending on your location and currency.
Classical guitar students can get a reduction in price, and / or payment split into installments. This is always discussed individually and is meant to support students in an unpleasant social condition, who wouldn't have access to similar instruments otherwise.
Please note there are no "student models" - every guitar is built with the best intention in mind and none should be inferior to any other. We do support classical guitar studies in other ways that do not come at any expense of our instruments' quality.
Long-term rental is offered to students and can be implemented as purchase with payment split into several installments over relatively long period of time.
Short-term rental is there for rather experienced touring guitar players, who would like to avoid traveling with their own instrument(s). As we've seen many cases what some airlines are capable of, we'd like to ease this situation by offering instrument rentals to concert players.
