Services
SALES
All our instruments and bows are sold with an
inclusive guarantee and a trade-up policy of up to
100% of the purchase price. All accessories in stock
are sold at competitive prices - you show us a
competitor's price, we match it. We special order
any accessories needed.
REPAIRS &
RESTORATIONS
All repairs and restorations are performed in our
shop by Constantin Popescu. No work is sent out to
subcontractors. You can come and watch Constantin
working on your instrument. Any major restorations
(which require the removal of the top and or neck)
undertaken in our work-shop are guaranteed for as
long as you own the instrument.
BOW REHAIRING &
RESTORATION
All work is performed by Constantin using only the
highest quality horse hair and replacement parts.
PURCHASE OF
INSTRUMENTS
Our shop is always seeking quality violin family
instruments and bows. If you have an instrument or
bow you wish to sell, you have two options; to trade
it in for one of our instruments or to sell it
directly to us for immediate cash.
CONSIGNMENTS
We accept instruments and bows in consignment. All
repairs must be performed and paid before we can
present the item to the potential buyers. Our
commission is 30% of the selling price.
RENTAL PROGRAM
Our program is designed with students of all ages
and levels in mind. All our rental instruments are
of highest quality, European made, the same
instruments that we have in our sales inventory.
Each instrument is expertly adjusted and in top
playing condition. Additional adjustments are
provided free of charge. Our rental to purchase
program offers the option to apply the rental fee
towards the purchase of any of our instruments in
accordance with our sliding schedule. A 10% discount
off the initial price will be applied if the rental
instrument is purchased within the first 3 months of
the rental period. We offer trade up from size to
size at any time.
APPRAISALS
An appraisal is a document that gives a description
of the instrument or bow, and gives an expert's
opinion of its fair replacement value. These
documents are accepted by insurance companies as
evidence of value but not as proof of ownership.
Instruments are appraised for a flat fee, and never
for a percentage of the value of the instruments.
Our fee is $100 for a verbal appraisal, $250 for a
written document. Updates are $100. $50 to reissue an existing document. Appraisals are
provided gratis whenever an instrument is purchased
in our store.
