Exclusive Product Focus

Exclusive Product Focus

Gorgeous Guitars is the fastest-growing online marketplace for Fine Archtop and Classical Guitars, Rare and Vintage guitars — and Guitar Amps.

No junk. No trash.

We review all listings, and our strong focus means you’ll see faster conversions because buyers get to see your gorgeous guitars without having to wade through hundreds of unrelated products they have no interest in.

It is our primary goal to offer a safe, comfortable, hassle-free environment where buyers and sellers can choose to deal direct, without the unnecessary burden of excessively high seller fees.

Fair & Transparent Pricing

Fair & Transparent Pricing

We like to keep things simple. And we prefer to keep seller costs low. In fact, our pricing structure is among the very lowest of any online musical instrument marketplace:

There is NO COST to list your gear for sale. When your item sells, your only costs are the insanely low seller fee (3.9%) and usual PayPal payment processing fees.

Dealer-Direct Program

RETAILERS and Sellers with many instruments to sell can take advantage of our unique commission-free program and avoid seller fees completely (see Dealer-Direct Program below).

Buy & Sell with Confidence

Buy & Sell with Confidence

We use PayPal for all transactions because PayPal provides the most extensive protection for buyers and sellers. No endless back-and-forth nonsense with so-called self-serving “expert teams” of other marketplaces. 

Although you can always browse without restriction, Buyers and Sellers on Gorgeous Guitars must be PayPal Verified. If you’re not yet a verified PayPal Member, now is a good time to take care of it (it’s quick and simple).

No Sales Tax (most states)

No Sales Tax (most states)


Why not?

Most states require marketplaces (or “marketplace facilitators”) like ours to first reach a certain threshold of sales revenue (or “Nexus”) in their state before being required to collect sales tax on goods delivered into their state. In the vast majority of states, that threshold is $100,000.

Since we’ve only recently launched, it will be awhile before we reach “nexus” in any one state, and we won’t be required to collect sales tax until we do.

Retail dealers may have separate sales tax obligations, which vary from state to state, and you will be advised if state sales tax applies to your purchase. Dealers are expected to be well-aware of the applicable tax laws of their own state, and are expected to comply.

Note that, since Gorgeous Guitars is located in New York state, we are required to collect sales tax on sales occurring in New York, when the financial transaction occurs directly on our site — same as if we were a retail dealer (sorry).
