RENTAL POLICY

TERMS

1. In order to reserve a suit the rental fee must be paid IN FULL for the suit to be marked as "rented". If for some reason you decide not to compete after payment has been received you can apply the whole rental fee towards a rental at another time. A $100 cancellation fee will be taken out of all cancellations not applied to another rental before a refund is issued.

2. A credit card is required for all rentals as insurance. All rentals must be returned in usable undamaged condition. I do not consider lost stones as damage. Damage is defined as ripped, torn, soiled past the point of cleaning or excessive glue. If and when any of these situations occur you will be notified via email and or phone, and the credit card number will be charged for the remaining balance of the suit.

3. This rental is ONLY for the competitor who filled out the rental form and only for the show date entered on the form. Loaning the suit to additional competitors will result in a full charge of an additional rental fee. I do offer extensions for additional show dates but only by prior arrangement.

4. If you choose to cancel your rental you must give me 10 days notice from the SHIP DATE not SHOW DATE. You have two options: 1. Refund minus the cancellation fee ($100 ) will be applied to the charged credit card or 2. Apply 100% of the rental monies to a future rental or purchase TBD. If the cancellation is less than 10 days notice from your show date, the monies will automatically go to a future rental or purchase, the monies will not be refundable. Once the suit has been mailed the rental is considered fulfilled.

5. There is a $25 PER DAY late fee charged for suits returned after the due date. (Fees will not exceed suit's full value.) Full suit value will be charged to the credit card on file for suits that are not returned within 20 business days from the show date.

6. If the suit is returned dirty there will be a $50 cleaning fee. If the suit is returned damaged, the charges vary depending upon what it takes to return the suit to the condition it was sent out in. Damaged is described as ripped, torn, heavily stained, etc. A few missing stones is NOT considered damage.

PAYMENTS

1. Acceptable methods of payment are Pay-Pal, Cash, or check. All transactions tendered with a check will be held for 5 business days to cover check processing. Please keep this in mind for final payments as it can affect the shipping date. All Pay-pal payments are subject to a processing fee, pay-pal allows you to use a credit card.

CREDITS

1. All credits are non transferable. They must be used by the person holding the credit.

PURCHASING YOUR RENTAL

1. Everyone has the right to buy their suit post show. However all rentals are first come first serve so if a rental is in place I am obligated to fulfill that rental before I am able to send you the suit. In all instances payment of the balance is still due on or before the return to allow the rental credits to be applied. Rentals fees can not be transferred to another suit for purchase. I will do everything I can to meet your needs.

2. If you would like to purchase the suit the rental fee can be applied 100% to the purchase price. To receive the rental fee as a discount on the purchase price, the suit must be purchased in full by the rental pieriod due date (extensions are not applicable).

3. Purchase of the suit is subject to suit's availability based on existing reservations.

4. Purchases of rental are in "As Is" condition.
