How to Purchase

How to purchase VILLAGEITALY is structured just like a gallery where customers may go window-shopping and have a look at the items displayed. They may therefore place their orders.
Purchasing Once the customer has selected the chosen firm, s/he may access the window where s/he may view the full details of the items displayed. the customer may also access general information on the firm and on the dispalyed items. Each item comes with a brief description and its price in Italian lire.
Customersi may check the price in their national currency by clicking on the icon next to the item. Prices are always VAT included. When the customer wants to place an order for a single item, s/he just needs to include the desired quantity and then click on the cart icon next to the picture.
In this way the selected item is stored in the "cart", according to the desired quantity. Such transaction may be repeated to purchase other items.
When visiting the gallery the customers may, at any time, check what they got inside their cart by clicking the cart icon in the upper left corner of the screen. Once the shopping is done and the visit to the gallery come to an end, customers may start the payment transaction.
Payment Customers may pay for the selected items by credit card (CARTASI' / VISA / MASTERCARD / EUROCARD/ DINERS) through secure on-line transactions. When purchasing for the first time ever, VILLAGEITALY asks the customers to fill in a registration form with his/her data. Italian law on privacy policy (L. 675/96) takes appropriate steps to protect the customers' privacy.
The personal information and data collected will only be used in order to process purchase orders and they will therefore be provided only to the relevant shipping company. Under no circumstances will customer information be shared with third parties for commercial or any other purposes without the customer's express consent. During registration the customer is required to supply personal data to process orders.
Once registration is over, the customer will be given a personal code number which s/he may use for future purchases. By using her/his personal number the customer will be eligible for discounts, sales promotions and the launch of new products. Villageitaly therefore advises always to use the personal number to avoid repeating registration procedures any time the customer accesses the site.
