Gianna denies responsibility for all circumstances beyond our control which might affect browsing our

kind arising in connection with the use of this website, or acceptance, possession or use of any product

Advice and value estimates
Gianna's staff and consultants are not responsible for damage that appears to result from suggestions
or recommendations we make by e-mail, phone, or on the Site. Visitors and customers are responsible
for figuring out whether something we suggest is suitable for you. For concerns about a particular
product, especially a product needing cleaning, call the manufacturer. We can help find the
manufacturer.
Gianna will provide our best estimate of the value of instruments described to us via images or words.
Any such estimates are based on our knowledge of the current market and represent what we would
price such an item for in our retail store. WE COULD BE WRONG. For formal estimates on products we
do not carry or did not sell, Gianna, Inc. urges contacting a professional appraiser at one of the large,
national firms.
List and minimum advertised prices
The suggested retail selling price of a product provided the manufacturer is the “list price.” Gianna, Inc.
often sells products for less than list price. Gianna does not warrant that any sales of any products
have occurred at list price. List price only provides a point of comparison between Gianna's pricing
and other retailers. Manufacturers or wholesalers may change list prices without notifying us. For
certainty on a current list price, please contact the manufacturer.
Many products on the Gianna, Inc. Site fall under a manufacturer's Minimum Advertised Price (MAP)
policy. These policies prevent authorized dealers of specific products from advertising a selling price
lower than their set minimum advertised price. Gianna frequently sells items at a lower price than the
MAP price, but we cannot advertise this price. You must contact us for the lower price.
Permission to use submissions
All information and communication from visitors to Gianna, become the outright property of Gianna,
including comments on products and service, other remarks, ideas, graphics, suggestions, data,
personal information and resumes, questions, and all other information, whether reaching Gianna

privacy policy. Gianna, will not treat information and communication as confidential or proprietary and
will not be liable for use of any ideas, graphics, or other information in its business including, without
limitation, service or promotion ideas. Gianna will exclusively own all present and future rights to
information and communication from visitors for all purposes, including commercial purposes, without
compensation to visitors or any other party sending the information or communication. By sending
information or communications, visitors agree that they are responsible for the information or
communications submitted and that they retain full responsibility for information and communications,
including the information or communications’ reliability, appropriateness, legality, originality, and
copyright ownership.
