Holds Policy
This is a page concerning a policy or procedure in development.
Once fleshed out, we'll consider it for adoption as official policy at Free Geek.
Sorry, but no. We don't take partial payment for anything. We take cash, and Mastercard and Visa with a $5 minimum. We do not accept checks. In general we do not make exceptions to this rule. In some extreme cases an individual staff member or volunteer may decide to set something aside while a customer runs to get cash from the bank. In this case, the item will be placed in the designated area for holds, with a note regarding who will be coming back for it and when. If the customer does not return for the item within the time frame they originally noted (e.g. one hour) it will be placed back on the shelf for sale.
