Your invoices are available in your account if you are a registered user, in case of failures or breakdowns it is essential that you save the purchase invoice.
Some products such as ropes, barbs, cables, valves, speakers, selectors or switches, jack females or all those that, due to endogenous characteristics, are exempt from warranty. Clicking on the "Buy" button on our website means that you accept these restrictions, even if you have not read the General Sales Conditions.
Are the products you sell new?
All the products we sell are brand new and in perfect condition. In some cases you can find that the product is unsealed, specifically on guitars, amplifiers or pedals; This happens because we carry out controls on most of the products before being sent, to verify that they work and that the box contains everything that the manufacturer says it should contain.
The products that are in the “OUTLET” section are equally new, but they are products that are discontinued or with some aesthetic damage that will appear detailed. In the latter case we call them “BSTOCK” and we will indicate in the text and with a photo what the specific defect is.
Are the products on your website in stock?
To know if a product is in stock, you should check if the product indicates:
- "Available": indicates that the product is in stock
- “Sold out, available in 4-15 days”: it means that we have availability in our distributor's warehouse, but not immediately, because we have to order it first. If the delivery time is to be extended more than indicated we will let you know by contacting you. In some cases, to avoid delays, it may be that the product is sent directly to you from the distributor.
- “Sold out, Not available” - means that the product is neither available nor will be in the future.
Do you ship outside of Spain?
In principle the web Stringsfield is designed to ship products throughout the Spanish territory, although we do ship within the European Union. In these cases contact us to be able to give you an estimate of the shipping costs.
I'm interested in a product that I don't see on your website. I can buy it?
We work with many brands and distributors so it is possible that we can have access to what you are looking for. In this case, contact us and we will tell you the price and delivery time.
How do you send the orders?
It depends on the shipping method chosen. We recommend that you take a look at the “Shipping costs” section to find out the estimated deadlines.
MAIL: 48-72 hours.
ENVIALIA: 48-72 hours.
MRW: 24 hours, with the possibility of 48 hours due to adverse weather conditions.
Delivery times are subject to the distribution network, we are not responsible for delays in the case of weather problems or due to strikes, carrier accidents, telecommunications platform failures, etc.
Of course, we will never be responsible for a delivery not being made on time if the customer is not at home to pick up the shipment.
My order has items with several different delivery times, when will I receive it?
If when making the purchase there were products that indicated “available” and others “Sold out - Available in 4-15 days” we will send the order when we have all the products in a single shipment. In case you want us to send you the products available before those that are pending delivery, you will have to pay the postage twice. Our website clearly shows the units of each product in stock. If by mistake you have bought something that is out of stock, and you want us to send you what we do have available, you must contact us by phone and we will send you the products that are in stock and the payment of the unused material.
Are weekends and holidays counted as delivery days?
On weekends and holidays there is no distribution, so all temporary references on the website refer to business days. For example, orders placed between 2:00 p.m. on Friday until 9:30 a.m. on Monday will not be processed for shipping until Monday, because courier companies do not provide delivery or transfer service during that period since Courier companies modify their own delivery times due to the weekend. On the other hand, holidays do not count in any case for the purposes of deadlines.
Nor do they count the days that our facilities are closed. We close very few days a year, but if you make your purchase on one of those days, we will clearly indicate it at the top of the web. Orders placed on those days will be issued when the Stringsfield team is incorporated, in order of entry.
How can I make the shipment arrive as quickly as possible?
If you need to have your order at your disposal as soon as possible you must check that we have product availability. Choosing any of the other forms of payment the process is immediate. Once this is done we recommend that you choose any form of payment except “Bank Transfer” since the term of your shipment depends on how long it takes to notify the money in our account, although you can send us the payment receipt, thus eliminating the time of payment wait.
All orders will be dispatched on the same day of your confirmation provided they are received before 2:00 p.m. and all products are in stock. If you need your order to be delivered within 24 hours you must select the Urgent mode. The collection trucks have a set time, and since you place the order we have to prepare it, document it, pass it to the warehouse, etc. We are not machines, we need some time to have it ready.
Why do you ask for the mobile phone?
If you indicate a landline you may not receive notice about the delivery of merchandise since the transport companies usually notify of the arrival of merchandise by SMS.
Are the prices of your online store the same as those of the physical store?
Yes, our prices and offers are exactly the same whether you buy online or come to visit our store.
Can I buy online and pick up the order in the store?
Yes, you can do it without any problem, in fact if you do so you can pick up the order without waiting in line. You just have to select this option at the end of the purchase process and the freight will be automatically eliminated.
Yesterday I looked at a product on your website and today its price has changed.
Our team is always concerned with keeping prices up to date in order to provide the best service and the best price at all times. For this reason we modify products and prices as soon as we are made aware of the changes provided by the manufacturer / distributor. That's why we recommend that if you see a product with a price that is convincing to you, make the purchase at the moment.
Why when you buy some payment methods appear with surcharge?
The only forms of payment that carry a surcharge are Paypal and Cash on delivery. In both cases it appears broken down in the shopping cart. In these cases you will have to pay a surcharge for the collection procedures carried out by the transport and the PayPal platform respectively.
I have placed an order and I forgot to add a product, can I modify it?
If the order has not left our facilities there is no problem. You have to contact us via phone and tell us what you want us to modify. By telephone we will tell you how to proceed for the purchase, payment, etc. In case the order has left here you can make the modification but it will be processed as a change and you will have to take care of the shipping costs. Once you receive it you will have to send it back, we will then check its status and send you the new order, which will be charged as a new shipment.
Can I indicate a different delivery address and a delivery time?
If you want to leave us instructions regarding the delivery time, you can leave your comments in the “Comments” field before finalizing the purchase process, but we cannot guarantee, in any case, that it will be delivered at that time, because we cannot know the routes of the messengers, that most of the cases cover very large radii of many kilometers and that are subject to possible atmospheric, traffic setbacks, etc.
You can also indicate a different delivery address when entering your billing and shipping information. Keep in mind that, if you know that you are not going to be at home, it is better that you leave us in observations some alternative (“leave at the goal”, “deliver at the Paco Bar, in front”, etc., so that the messenger goes and Do not hit you, as long as it is within the same zip code.
How many delivery attempts have I paid?
Each shipment has two delivery attempts covered: the courier goes to your home (or to the address you have indicated), you are not there, and the next day it happens again. If this time also does not meet you, and you have not contacted us to indicate an alternative within the same zip code, the order will be stabilized at the branch of the agency you choose for 7 days, and then it will be returned to our installations. If you do not pick it up within that period, at Stringsfield Guitars, once the order has been received, we will make the payment of the products, but we will deduct the return amount.
All shipments that are not picked up at the destination offices, either because the recipient does not attend them or because from the agency it is impossible to contact him, and they are returned, Stringsfield Guitars reserves the right to deduct the price of the return freight of the total amount of the purchase, in concept of return postage.
How do I unsubscribe from the newsletter?
The newsletters we send usually include news and promotions, we will not send more than one pair of newsletters per month. If you want to unsubscribe, write to newsletter@stringsfield.com and we will unsubscribe you. If you later decided to register again, you only have to subscribe again, you will find the box on the inside of any of the pages.
