MERCHANDISE RENTAL POLICY

At our discretion, we allow specific statement pieces and custom couture to be temporarily leased, via purchaser's entrance into a termed Conditional Rental Agreement.  The retail value of the total transaction must meet a minimum of $5,000, before qualifying for rental. 

1. Customer purchases a minimum of $5,000 at-retail.

2. In addition to purchase transaction, a 30% "rental fee deposit" is charged and held in escrow. 

3. When goods are returned to store, per the schedule agreed-to in the rental contract-- and are deemed to be in sellable condition-- the full-purchase transaction is refunded.  The 30% rental fee deposit is non-refundable.  Any goods presenting signs of wear, odor, damage, or alteration, are not eligible for return or exchange under rental agreement.
