Most common FAQ
How does shipping work ?
How can I pay ?
In order to avoid purchase issues of the same instrument by several individuals, we don’t allow direct purchase from the website. By clicking reserve it, you are added to the list. Our team will contact you in the same contact information details you have provided while reserving it, and inform you of the current market’s price. Once the deal has been set, we will send you guidelines for payment process.
The guitars you see on our platform remain the property of their original owners until sold. For this reason, payments are made directly to the owner of the instrument, ensuring clarity of ownership and allowing us to work with collectors, musicians, and estates worldwide without unnecessary intermediaries.
Our company does not take possession of sale proceeds.
What kinds of instruments do you accept?
We accept all stringed instruments:
Guitars (Acoustic / Electric)
Bass Guitars (Acoustic / Electric)
Mandolins
Lap and Pedal Steel
We also accept instrument amplifiers, although certain amps are not eligible for shipping due to size.
How long will it take to receive my payout?
When the consigned instrument is sold, Vintaguitars will send the payout 15 business days after the purchaser’s acceptance of the instrument.
Instruments sold online have a 48-hour return policy which begins upon receipt of the instrument. The 15-business-day processing period begins once the 48-hour return window has concluded.
We offer 30-day layaways to customers when given approval by the consignor, in which case payout is made 15 business days after the final payment is received. The customer does not receive the guitar until final payment is made.
How long does it usually take for consigned instruments to sell?
When consigning with us, unlike online marketplaces, you have a dedicated sales team working hard to sell your guitar to its next owner, which enables us to offer one of the fastest sales times in the industry.
The majority of consignments sell in less than 2 months, with over 250 consignment guitars sold each and every month.
How long will it take for my instrument to be live on the website?
We make selling your instrument simple and our goal is to have your guitar listed from start to finish in 7 working days.
Each instrument is closely inspected and authenticated by our team, cleaned up, provided fresh strings and a setup to get it into optimal playing condition, described, photographed, and listed on our website. Every instrument is promoted in our email newsletter, as well as featured in the Latest Arrivals section on our website.
The process is hassle free, as we do all the work for you, with the goal of getting you more money in your pocket.
What are your consignment rates?
Vintaguitars sells more guitars on consignment than any other vintage dealer in the world
Let us help you get the most value for your instruments. When you consign with us, you get access to our dedicated sales team, leading authentication professionals, and world-class repair shop. Each instrument is authenticated, setup, given professional photography, specs, and descriptions, and featured on our website, where we sell to collectors and players across the world.
We offer the industry’s most interesting consignment rates:
• Below $3k = 20%
• $3k to $50k = 15%
• $50k to $100k = 12.5%
• $100k and above = 10%
We charge an authentication/listing fee of $85 per instrument to cover authentication, setup, fresh strings, photos, and thorough specs/description. There are no upfront costs, all fees are taken after the sale of the instrument.
Do you buy instruments outright or only sell on consignment?
Although the majority of our instruments are sold on consignment, we do buy guitars outright every day.
Our policy is 65% of the estimate sale price. For example, if we value your guitar at $1,000, we will buy your guitar for $650 cash. Selling on consignment will make you more money (our average consignment rate is only 15%), consignments are only paid after the instrument is sold.
When buying instruments, we always provide a quote on the price we would list it at under consignment, so you can guarantee that you are getting a fair valuation and the most money for your instrument.
Ownership & Payment Transparency
We believe in full transparency.
The guitars you see on our platform remain the property of their original owners until sold. For this reason, payments are made directly to the owner of the instrument, ensuring clarity of ownership and allowing us to work with collectors, musicians, and estates worldwide without unnecessary intermediaries.
Our company does not take possession of sale proceeds.
How We Are Compensated ?
Instead of charging high marketplace commissions, we operate on a consignment service fee model.
Once a guitar is shipped to us or approved within our trusted network, the owner places a service deposit with us. This deposit represents our compensation for:
-Logistics coordination & secure shipping.
-Professional presentation and documentation.
-Expert verification and evaluation.
-Professional photography and media production.
-Marketing, advertising, and collaborations.
-Buyer communication & transaction facilitation.
This model allows us to invest heavily in visibility and promotion, rather than passing high platform fees onto buyers or sellers.
