I put down a 50% deposit yesterday. The boutique still has to order it for me. They only have 1 piece of each atm, to show to clients. Then, I've still got to have it shortened.

But here're a couple of very lousy pics I took. My pics are so horrible, compared to the other beautiful pics posted on here. lol.

Hi ladies! I am new to VCA and I have seen many of you commenting on putting down a deposit, can anyone explain how does this work? Is it only for soon to be released items or can you do that on any piece? Thank you!

I put down a deposit recently. 10% gives you 1 month to decide. 40% = 4 months. 100% = 1 year. Anything less than 100% means if the price changes, you pay the revised price. At the end of the deposit period, if you are undecided, the piece will no longer be held and VCA can sell it. You can use the deposit to buy something else.

It probably differs country to country since in some countries, you can get an exchange or a refund for items you change your mind about?

Thanks for such a detailed explanation, Stardust! Is your deposit refundable entirely if you end up choosing not to get anything at all? Does this work for limited edition pieces as well?

Went for the 10-motif guilloche necklace and can't wait to wear it! Not a great picture but you can see that especially with flash the gold is lighter and more radiant than the traditional hammered VA. I'm a PG lover normally, so happy to report that the guilloche pairs well with my RG Cartier bracelet while I found that the traditional YG VA clashed more on my skin next to RG.

Your necklace looks like pink gold in your pic! Are you sure it’s not a special prototype? :love:
