We do our best to ensure that the information about Products is accurate and up-to-date. However we do not guarantee that there will be no errors in the description and/or pricing of the Products, or that Products will always be available if you wish to place an Order to purchase them.

We reserve the right to modify the information about Products displayed on our Site, including as regards prices, description and availability. However, such changes will not affect Orders for which you have already received an Order Receipt email (see below).

To complete a purchase, you first have to place an Order for Products. Then, this Order has to be accepted by us.

The Order Receipt email contains full details of your Order (such as Order No., information on Products, prices, your shipping address, delivery costs and other). Please note the Order Receipt email is NOT already an acceptance of your Order.

3rd step (optional): upfront payment through Alternative Payment Method (APM)

We usually collect payment for an Order upon confirmation of the shipment of the relevant products (see 4rd step below).

4thstep: we confirm that Products have been shipped – contract concluded!

When your Order is accepted by us, we send you an email confirming that all, or part, of the Products have been shipped (“Shipping Confirmation email”).

Once you receive the Shipping Confirmation email, your Order has been finally accepted by us and the purchase contract between you and us is concluded in relation to the Products actually shipped. Such a contract is composed by: your Order; our Order Receipt and Shipping Confirmation emails; the then current Terms of Sale. No other terms and conditions shall apply.

The Shipping Confirmation email will contain an unmodifiable copy of the version of the Terms of Sale applicable at the time the purchase contract is concluded, for your future reference.

ii.         we discover that there was an error on our Site relating to the Products you ordered, for example as regards the price or description displayed;

iii.         the Products you ordered are unfortunately out of stock or no longer available;

iv.         We have reasonable grounds to believe that you intend to resell the Products.

If we cannot accept your Order we will contact you by email as soon as possible but in any case no later than 30 days from the date of your Order. If we cannot accept your Order because the Products are no longer available, or because of an error in the price and/or other information on our Site, we will refund you any money you may have already been charged for such Products.

In case you have selected an APM, we may exceptionally have already collected your payment when we discover that the Products might be unavailable. In such a case we will immediately contact you and issue a full refund.
