Imagine this: You’ve been looking for a new work of art or piece of jewelry from Rafi and Klee, and you find something you love—but you’re not ready to immediately pay the total price to cover the cost. Now you have the option to put it on Lay-Away. Lay-Away is an option to hold the item and let you pay for it over time.
Over the years, we have had people ask us if they can pay for something over time, and we never had a system that allowed it. Now we do!
Why Are We Offering Lay-Away?
- We wanted to give our peeps a way to split up payments on something without having to pay interest.
- There are alternatives to layaway plans—like credit cards and buy now, pay later loans. However, we wanted to offer something in-house, with zero interest or hidden fees.
What Is Layaway?
Layaway allows a customer to put a deposit on an item in our store that we then put on hold in our gallery. The customer makes installment payments on it over time and will have it shipped to them once the balance has been paid in full.
