FAQs
I am nervous to order online, how safe is it?
We have been in trade since 2013 and we have not to date had a single return with an unhappy client. Ideally find a picture on Pinterest of the style of table you like . Read our testimonials and see our Facebook ratings, the stats don’t lie after 6 years of trading! Also if you are still unsure, call or WhatsApp the founder Amanda on 0729025386 and you will find a real person to talk to and to help you feel at ease.
We also keep you posted with progress updates and pictures during the build of your items
What timber do I choose?
Generally we work in reclaimed Oregon (most environmentally friendly and cost effective for clients) and new Oak, but we can also make from Teak, Meranti, Beech or Mahogany, the choice is yours.Teak and Mahogany are best for outdoors usage as they weather better outdoors
How long will it take to come?
Generally we say allow 2-4 weeks for manufacture and then a few days for transport depending where its going (nationwide in SA) .
How do I know what size to order?
Take some tape, and mark out the space on your floor of your ideal size table. Remember that you will still need space for chairs or benches. We can make tables to any size clients specific. Longer tables often require joins and more work.
Can I order bulk orders for my business?
Yes, of course you can and we also offer very competitive trade rates for trade buyers. Drop us a line at info@vintage-etc.com
How thick is the top, and what legs do I choose?
Our clients decide on this, but you can have a 50mm top, 70mm top or 80mm top. Obviously the thicker the table top, the higher the price as its more timber. The legs can be cross legs, straight legs, black metal legs, or turned legs. You tell us, we make it!
How does payment work?
For custom order tables, we do require payment up front, because we buy timber and manufacture on your behalf, and if you don’t want it or change your mind or can’t afford the balance, the cost is not recoverable for our business. We operate with integrity and hope our clients will do the same.
