coreSTORE - FFL: How to Place a Firearm on Layaway


A layaway is a purchasing arrangement where a customer reserves an item with a retailer by making a deposit and paying the balance over time, typically in installments. The retailer holds the item for the customer until the full payment is made, at which point the customer can take possession of the item. It's a way for customers to make a purchase without having to pay the full price upfront, and it allows retailers to secure sales for high-ticket items.
