Basis of Sale
These terms and the order are considered by us to set out the whole agreement between you and us for the sale of the goods. Please check that the details in the terms or on the order are complete and accurate before you commit yourself to the contract. If you think that there is a mistake, please make sure that you ask us to confirm any changes in writing, as we only accept responsibility for statements and representations made in writing by our authorised employees and agents. Please ensure that you read and understand these terms before you submit the order, because you will be bound by the terms once a contract comes into existence between us, in accordance with paragraph 2.5.Any samples, drawings, descriptions or advertising we issue, and any colours, descriptions, images or illustrations contained in our catalogues or brochures (whether online or in hard copy form), are issued or published solely to provide you with an approximate idea of the goods they describe. They do not form part of the contract between you and us or any other contract between you and us for the sale of the goods.
If any of these terms are inconsistent with any term of or instruction in the order, the terms in the order shall prevail.
The order is an offer by you to enter into a binding contract, which we are free to accept or decline at our absolute discretion.
These terms shall become binding on you and us when we issue you with written acceptance of an order (order confirmation) at which point a contract shall come into existence between us.
We shall assign an order number to the order and inform you of it in the order confirmation. Please quote the order number in all subsequent correspondence with us relating to the order.
If you are a consumer (acting outside your business), you may cancel your order in accordance with your rights under the Distance Selling Regulations. This does not apply to the following:
Personalised goods;
Perishable goods;
Goods made to your specification;
Opened, used, or redeemed etc;
The goods are clearly personalised; or
If you are not a consumer.
We have the right to revise and amend these terms from time to time to reflect changes in market conditions affecting our business, changes in technology, changes in payment methods, changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements and changes in our system's capabilities. You will be subject to the policies and terms in force at the time that you order the goods from us, unless any change to those policies or these terms is required by law or government or regulatory authority (in which case, it will apply to orders you have previously placed that we have not yet fulfilled).
The Goods
These terms do not affect your legal rights. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or trading standards office.We shall not be liable for any defect in the goods arising from fair wear and tear, wilful damage, accident, negligence by you or any third party, if you use the goods in a way that we or the manufacturers do not recommend, you fail to follow the manufacturer's and/or our instructions, or any alteration or repair you carry out without our prior written approval.
We will take reasonable steps to pack the goods properly and to ensure that you receive your order in good condition.
These terms apply to any repaired or replacement goods we supply to you in the unlikely event that the original goods are faulty or do not otherwise conform with these terms.
Delivery
Unless otherwise stated, we will aim to procure delivery to you within fourteen (14) working days after payment confirmation.Delivery of the order shall be completed when the goods are delivered to you.
Please note that the goods may be delivered direct from our suppliers. Occasionally the delivery time may be affected by factors beyond our or our suppliers' control and so cannot be guaranteed. We will aim to let you know if we become aware of an unexpected delay and will arrange a new delivery time with you. Please allow extra time for deliveries outwith Hong Kong which have limited or poor access to internet connections.
If you have not taken delivery of the goods within fourteen (14) working days of our notifying you that they have been shipped, we may, after giving you reasonable prior notice in writing, resell or otherwise dispose of all of the goods and, after deducting reasonable storage and selling costs, pay you for any excess over the price of the goods or charge you for any shortfall below their price.
If we are not able to deliver the whole of the order at one time due to operational reasons or shortage of stock, we will deliver the order in instalments. We will not charge you extra delivery costs for this. If you ask us to deliver the order in instalments, we may charge you extra delivery costs. Each instalment shall constitute a separate contract. If we are late delivering an instalment or one instalment is faulty, that will not entitle you to cancel any other instalment.
Defective Goods and Returns
In the unlikely event that the goods do not conform with these terms and the order, please let us know within twenty four (24) hours after receipt of the order. Subject as set out below, we may ask you to return the goods to us (a postage fee may apply) and once we have checked that the goods have not been opened or used any way, and are faulty, we may:replace the goods
refund your order
These terms will apply to any replacement goods we supply to you.
For the avoidance of doubt we will not refund your delivery costs when a product(s) is (are) simply unwanted. Returned items, regardless of condition, will not be credited.
For the avoidance of doubt, we will not be responsible for delivery costs for the return of goods that have been dispatched regardless of location.
Title and Risk
The goods will be your responsibility from the time of delivery.Ownership of the goods will only pass to you when we receive payment in full of all sums due for the goods, including delivery charges.
Price and Payment
The price of the goods will be as set out in the quotation we provided to you or, if we have not provided a quotation or the quotation has expired, in our price list in force at the time we confirm your order. Prices are liable to change at any time, but price changes will not affect orders that we have confirmed in writing.These prices include VAT. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of the order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the goods in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
These prices exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due. For the avoidance of doubt, we will not be liable for any export or import duties, taxes etc., arising as a result of the goods being sent to a destination outwith Hong Kong.
It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the goods we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where the goods' correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the goods to you. If the goods' correct price is higher than the price stated on our website, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the goods, or reject the order and tell you. For the avoidance of doubt, particularly if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing, we do not have to provide the goods to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
Payment for all goods must be made in advance by PayPal or credit card at the time of ordering. We accept payment with Visa and MasterCard.
If you do not make any payment due to us by the due date for payment (as set out in clause 7.5), we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount as presented by PayPal Pte Ltd., from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with the overdue amount.
Without limiting any other remedies or rights that we may have, if you do not pay us on time, we may cancel or suspend any other outstanding order until you have paid the outstanding amounts.
Paragraphs 7.6 and 7.7 shall not apply for the period of the dispute if you dispute the payment owing in good faith and let us know promptly after you have received the invoice that you dispute it.

General
If any court or competent authority decides that any of the provisions of these terms and/or the order are invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, that term will, to that extent only, be severed from the remaining terms, which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.If we fail, at any time while these terms are in force, to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these terms, or if we do not exercise any of our rights or remedies under these terms, that will not mean that we have waived such rights or remedies and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, that will not mean that we will automatically waive any subsequent default by you. No waiver by us of any of these terms shall be effective unless we expressly say that it is a waiver and we tell you so in writing.
Although we sell products useable by children under the supervision of a parent or guardian, we do not sell products for purchase by children. If you are under 18, you may only use our website and submit an order under the supervision of a parent or guardian.
These terms shall be governed by Hong Kong law and we both agree to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Hong Kong courts. For the avoidance of doubt, if you are ordering goods to be sent to a destination outwith Hong Kong you should satisfy yourself that your order complies with the laws of that country.
