Rental FAQ
Yes! Once a rental contract has ended, Lessee will have 90 days during which time they may purchase a NEW William Harris Lee & Co. instrument at a special discount. This LOYALTY DISCOUNT will equal 100% of the rental fees (not including the maintenance fee & sales taxes) collected during the life of the contract and will additionally be limited to no more than 50% of the selling price of a new WHL instrument or 20% of an antique instrument. The loyalty discount may not be combined with any other discount, trade-in, or special offer. Instruments sold with a loyalty discount must be paid in full at the time of purchase. The loyalty discount may not be used towards the purchase of a case or bow unless the instrument being purchased is advertised and sold as an outfit by William Harris Lee & Co. Simply contact our sales department to arrange an instrument trial.
COVERED: Normal wear and tear items such as nicks, scratches, open seams, sticking or slipping pegs, bow rehairs (max. 2 per year) and broken strings (max. full string set replacement 2 per year).
COVERED WITH DEDUCTIBLE FEE: Instruments accidentally damaged beyond repair (the cost of the repair is greater than the value of the instrument), will be charged a deductible fee as follows: Violins or Violas – $150.00, Cellos – $290.00, and Basses – $350.00. Examples of this kind of damage include: broken neck, broken or cracked scroll, back cracl, soundpost or bassbar crack, and impact damage. If the instrument is stolen, a police report documenting the incident must be provided to W.H. Lee & Co. within 7 days of the occurence.
NOT COVERED: Damage due to neglect or instruments that are lost; in these cases, Lessee is responsible for the full retail price of the instrument, bow and case. Examples include: initials and other carvings in the instrument varnish, instruments left outisde or in cars, unattended, loaned to third parties, or subject to extreme temperature conditions.
