- HOW PURCHASE CONTRACTS ARE FORMED
No contract ("Contract") in respect of the purchase of a product offered on the Site shall exist between you and us until your order has been accepted by us and we send you the Shipment Confirmation (defined below). If we do not accept your order and funds have already been deducted from your account, the funds will be fully refunded. To place an order, you will be required to follow the shopping process online and press the "Make e Payment" button to submit the order. After this, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order (the "Order Confirmation"). Your order constitutes your offer to us to buy one or more products from us for personal use and not for resale purposes. We reserve the right to limit, cancel or prohibit orders that, in our judgment, appear to be placed in violation of this policy. We further reserve the right to cease doing business with customers who violate this policy. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an email that confirms that the product has been dispatched or, if you selected the Pick-up In Store option (where available), by sending you an email and/or text message (if you so authorize at the time of purchase) that the product is available for in-store pickup at the store you designated during the checkout process (collectively, the "Shipment Confirmation"). We will not be bound to supply any other products which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such products has been confirmed in a separate 4 Shipment Confirmation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, your card or other method of payment will not be charged until your order is accepted and shipped. However, it may show a pre-authorization of the funds immediately upon placing the Order. You acknowledge and agree that we do not make any warranty or guarantee regarding when product(s) will be available for pickup through the Pick-up In Store option. For all purchases made through the Site, you acknowledge and agree that your purchase receipt will be provided electronically only; paper copies of receipts will not be provided.
- AVAILABILITY OF PRODUCTS
All orders for products are subject to availability and in this regard, in the event of supply difficulties or because products are no longer in stock, we reserve the right to give you information about substitute products of an equal or higher quality and value which you can order. If you do not wish to order such substitute products, we will refund any money that you might have paid.
- REFUSAL OF ORDER
We reserve the right to withdraw any product from the Website at any time and/or remove or edit any materials or content on the Website. While we will make reasonable efforts to process all orders, there may be exceptional circumstances that may require us to refuse to process an order after we have sent you an Order Confirmation; and we reserve the right to refuse to process an order at any time, at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any other third party by reason of our withdrawing any product from the Website, whether it has been sold or not, removing or editing any materials or contents on the Website or for refusing to process or accept an order after we have sent you the Order Confirmation.
- CANCELLATIONS
You may cancel an Order for certain products if the Order is still being processed (and has not gone to the shipping service) to receive a refund to your original form of payment of the price paid. Otherwise, you must return the product(s) in accordance with our Returns policy. The following products in an Order may not be cancelled: personalized or customized products.
- DELIVERY
Subject to the provisions of Clause 6 above, and unless there are any exceptional circumstances, we will endeavor to fulfill your order for product(s) listed in the Shipment Confirmation by the delivery date set out in the Shipment Confirmation or, if no estimated delivery date is specified, within 15 business days of the date of the Shipment Confirmation. Reasons for delay could include: 1. Customization of products; 2. Specialized products; 3. Unforeseen circumstances; or 4. Delivery area. For the purpose of these Terms, the "delivery" shall be deemed to have occurred or the goods shall be deemed to "have been delivered" upon receipt of the product(s) at the designated delivery address at the designated delivery address, as applicable. For all packages, we will try to find a safe secure place to leave your parcel as determined by the carrier delivering the package. In the event of a repeated issue with any particular address provided for you, we reserve the right to request an alternate address in order to fulfill your next Order.
- UNABLE TO DELIVER
Please note that an Order may be delivered to a neighbor, in case a delivery attempt is unsuccessful. Delivery to a neighbor address is upon judgment of the driver. Signature required orders which cannot be delivered will be returned to warehouse as stated above. The carrier will generally determine if the parcel can be left in a secure place at your delivery address. Your package may be returned to us if there is no safe place to leave the package at the point of delivery. For lost or missing packages, we will provide you with the information of the carrier and tracking number associated with your order so that you may contact them directly to track your package. Please note that we are not responsible for lost packages sent to mail forwarding providers.
- RISK AND TITLE
The product(s) will be at your risk from the time of delivery. Ownership of the product(s) will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the products, including delivery charges, or upon delivery (as defined in Clause 9 above), whichever event occurs later in time.
- PRICE AND PAYMENT
The price of the products shall be the one quoted from time to time on our Website, except where there is an error. While we take care to ensure that all prices quoted on our Website are accurate, errors may occur. If we discover an error in the price of any product(s) you have ordered, we will inform you as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming the order at the correct price or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact you, the order will be treated as cancelled and if you have already paid for the product(s) you will receive a full refund. We are under no obligation to sell the product(s) to you at the incorrect (lower) price (even after we have sent you a Shipment Confirmation) if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognized by you as such. All prices are exclusive of shipping charges and sales tax (if applicable). The total cost of the order is the price of the product(s) ordered plus the delivery charge and sales tax (if applicable). Prices may change at any time. Sales tax is charged (if applicable) according to the shipping address of your order as required by applicable law. Once you have finished shopping on the Website, all the products you wish to purchase are added to your basket. Your next step will be to go through the checkout process and make payment. Payment for orders will be made to DECKORATE BV. The amount of the purchase will not be charged to your original payment method until your order has been shipped to the delivery address. By clicking on the "Finalize Order" button, you are confirming that the chosen method of payment is yours or that you are the owner of the merchandise credit card. Cards are subject to validation checks and authorization by your card issuer. If we do not receive the required authorization, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.
