Village ♥ you
And we want you to be happy. So we offer our Taste Test program on every single one of the typefaces on vllg.com. This program has been in effect since we launched in July 2005, and has been used by many of our customers. But not everyone knows it exists. This is how it works...
Taste Test
If you purchase a single weight (or more) of any typeface we offer, then return later to buy a family set, we will credit you the amount of the original sale.
How the program works
We know that you might want to try out one or two weights of a typeface to decide if it's right for a project you're working on. While the MudTyper and PDFs are very useful, there is nothing quite like trying out a typeface yourself.
So, you visit vllg.com and license your "trial" font (or fonts) and work with it for a while. A couple of hours, a couple of months, or a couple of years.
If you decide you want to get a family set, just come back to vllg.com and purchase a license online. Send us a note on the checkout page or via email and we will deduct the original cost of your "trial" fonts from your family order.
Here are some examples of how you can use the Taste Test:
You license the Upright Italic weight of Odile for US$49.
Two weeks later you license the Odile family for US$199.
We refund US$49 on your family order so you pay US$150.
