Once you have discussed your requirements with Lisa, please ensure that you print this page and include it with your shipment.
Failure
to do so will mean that your restoration will be delayed.
This information is a guideline for customers for shipping and liability
whilst your object is in the care of The Antiques Boutique. Your signature is a requirement.
1. Please enclose details of your
name, address, phone number, and email,
as well as a list of the item(s) and a description of damage.
2. Broken pieces need to be wrapped
separately, bagged, and packed with the object.
This prevents loose pieces from getting more damaged or lost during
unwrapping and cataloging.
Please package according to postal/shipper
recommendations using a strong double box & double bubble wrap, with a
minimum of
a 2-inch buffer between object and box.
3. Shipping, handling charges & any taxes/duty are the responsibility
of the owner. On
occasion badly broken, previously glued or painted-over surfaces necessitate an
additional expense. You will be advised
if this is the case before any work is done.
4. The Antiques Boutique is not liable for theft or damage. Please check with your
insurance
company, as many homeowners and business policies may cover your items
during restoration. Postage services may cover
up to (but not over) $500 for antiques or objects of art, and you may want to enquire about any restrictions when you select shipping
insurance.
Precautions and great care to prevent further damage during restoration are
standard practice with The Antiques Boutique, but
it is possible that an unseen
circumstance may lead to further breakage. The Antiques Boutique will not be
liable in the event
of fire or natural disaster. Again, you should check with your insurance for coverage of your item during restoration.
Your signature
reflects understanding of the above disclaimer and will be kept on file at
The Antiques Boutique.
