Experimental Vintage Layaway Program

 
 

We are so excited to share this new Layaway Program with you to hopefully make more rugs accessible to you all…

Only rugs valued at or over $2,000 are eligible for our layaway plan. If you are interested in purchasing a rug thru the Layaway Program, please first read the details below and then email us which rug you would like to place on layaway using the subject line “layaway inquiry” at: experimentalvintage@gmail.com

NOTE:  It may take  up to 3 business days to respond to your layaway request. We do not keep traditional working hours as a small business and team of 2, but we strive to get back to everyone as quickly as possible. We do not check DMs or emails on Sunday or other scheduled days off. 

After a layaway has been requested and received by us, we will send you a detailed email with your specific contract, cost breakdown, timeline and payment plan. 

If your initial payment is not received within 24 hours of our email contract and payment plan, your layaway rug WILL NOT BE HELD.

If your requested rug sells before we are able to set you up with a layaway contract, we apologize! This is the nature of the beast and vintage items being one-of-a-kind. 

We have put a lot of thought and effort into this process and understand it may not be perfect.  Your patience and understanding is appreciated while we work to bring an easy and efficient layaway program to our customers so you can purchase the rugs you love.

Layaway Payment Plan: 

the exact cost breakdown of your layaway will be included with your layaway contract

Rugs totaling $2000+

6 equal payments over a maximum of 90 days 

POLICIES for PAYMENTS and REPERCUSSIONS FOR LATE PAYMENTS

It is your responsibility to make your payments as planned. We will schedule emails to be sent to you on your payment dates with easy links to make your payment. 

  • Payments are due between the 1st-5th and the 15th-20th

  • If your first payment is made within 5 days of the next payment window, we will automatically push your second payment ahead at least 15 days.

  • If any payment is ever received outside of the 5 day window you will accrue a late fee of $25 for each late payment. This will be added to your overall total due. 

  • A late fee invoice with any accrued fees will be emailed to you after your final scheduled payment is received. You will have 7 days to pay any final fees or your layaway will be voided and your rug will be added back to inventory on our website. This will be considered a canceled layaway (see below)

  • Your rug WILL NOT SHIP until all payments and late fees are paid in full.

POLICIES and REPERCUSSIONS FOR CANCELED or FORFEITED LAYAWAYS

  • If you decide to cancel your layaway at any point you will be charged a restocking fee of 20% of the total cost of the item. 

EXAMPLE: a $2000 item would have a restocking fee of $400.  A forfeited layaway will be refunded (minus restocking fee) within 30 days of the final payment due date.

  • If you default on any payment or if we do not receive any contact from you for 30 days or more your layaway contract will be considered VOID and you will NOT be refunded.

  • We reserve the right to cancel any layaway contract at any time for any reason-we don’t anticipate this happening but as a small business must protect ourselves with this language.
