Deposit Fee On Products?

My client wants to add a separate line item/non-taxable deposit to certain products.
 

Is there a way to do this? 
 

Client sells charcuterie boards and the deposit is for the board. If the customer returns the board they will be refunded the deposit, if not they are changed for it.  So if the charcuterie board is $105 they want to create a $40 deposit fee on top of the $105 but it can’t be taxed and they don’t want to just add the fee to the base price - they want it separate. 
 

Any developers able to help?

theres probably no way hey. trying to this myself

This is frustrating as this is typical of the first part of the payment process when making something custom for someone. If this is not available, I hope it is added in the future.

Hi, I need this too.

I sell tours. I need the ability to sell holiday as a product and offer:

1. Variants of: single, twin, double
2. Early Bird discount
3. Deposit of either a percentage or an amount off the total price

I have been needing this for 3 years. Let me know if you find a way.

At the moment I can only put variants on sale, which is not the same thing.

VERY DISAPPOINTING. THIS IS NO GOOD FOR BUSINESS
