Article 3 - Applicability These general terms and conditions apply to every offer made by the entrepreneur and to every distance contract and order concluded between the entrepreneur and the consumer. Before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these general terms and conditions will be made available to the consumer. If this is not reasonably possible, before the remote agreement is concluded, it will be indicated that the general terms and conditions can be inspected at the entrepreneur's premises and they will be sent free of charge to the consumer as soon as possible upon request. If the distance contract is concluded electronically, notwithstanding the previous paragraph and before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these general terms and conditions may be made available to the consumer electronically in such a way that it can be stored by the consumer in a simple manner on a durable data carrier. If this is not reasonably possible, before the distance contract is concluded, it will be indicated where the general terms and conditions can be inspected electronically and that they will be sent electronically or otherwise free of charge at the consumer's request. In the event that specific product or service conditions apply in addition to these general terms and conditions, the second and third paragraphs shall apply mutatis mutandis and, in the event of conflicting general terms and conditions, the consumer may always rely on the applicable provision that is most favourable to him. If one or more provisions in these general terms and conditions are at any time wholly or partially void or annulled, the agreement and these terms and conditions shall otherwise remain in force and the provision concerned shall be replaced without delay by mutual agreement with a provision that approximates the purport of the original as closely as possible. Situations not provided for in these general terms and conditions should be assessed 'in the spirit' of these general terms and conditions. Uncertainties about the interpretation or content of one or more provisions of our terms and conditions must be interpreted 'in the spirit' of these general terms and conditions.
Article 4 - The offer If an offer has a limited period of validity or is made subject to conditions, this shall be expressly stated in the offer. The offer is without obligation. The entrepreneur is entitled to change and adjust the offer. The offer contains a complete and accurate description of the products and/or services on offer. The description is sufficiently detailed to enable a proper assessment of the offer by the consumer. If the entrepreneur uses images, these are a truthful representation of the offered products and/or services. Obvious mistakes or obvious errors in the offer do not bind the entrepreneur. All images, specifications and data in the offer are indicative and cannot be a reason for compensation or dissolution of the agreement. Images of products are a true representation of the products offered. Operator cannot guarantee that the colours displayed correspond exactly to the real colours of the products. Each offer contains such information that it is clear to the consumer what rights and obligations are attached to the acceptance of the offer. This concerns in particular: the price, excluding customs clearance costs and import VAT. These additional costs will be at the customer's expense and risk. The postal and/or courier service will use the special regulation for postal and courier services with regard to imports. This arrangement applies if the goods are imported into the EU country of destination, which is the case in the present instance. The postal and/or courier service collects the VAT (whether or not together with the customs clearance costs charged) from the recipient of the goods; any costs of shipment; the way in which the agreement will be concluded and what actions are required for this; whether or not the right of withdrawal applies; the method of payment, delivery and performance of the agreement; the period for accepting the offer, or the period within which the trader guarantees the price; the level of the rate of distance communication if the costs of using the technology for distance communication are calculated on a basis other than the regular basic rate for the means of communication used; whether the contract will be archived after its conclusion and, if so, in what way it can be consulted by the consumer; the way in which the consumer, before concluding the contract, can check the data provided by him in the context of the contract and, if desired, rectify them; any other languages, besides Dutch, in which the contract can be concluded; the codes of conduct to which the trader has submitted and the way in which the consumer can consult these codes of conduct electronically; and the minimum duration of the distance contract in the event of a duration transaction. Optional: available sizes, colours, type of materials.
Article 5 - The agreement The agreement is concluded, subject to the provisions of paragraph 4, at the moment the consumer accepts the offer and fulfils the terms and conditions stipulated. If the consumer has accepted the offer electronically, the trader will immediately confirm receipt of acceptance of the offer electronically. As long as the receipt of this acceptance has not been confirmed by the entrepreneur, the consumer can dissolve the agreement. If the agreement is concluded electronically, the entrepreneur shall take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the electronic transfer of data and shall ensure a secure web environment. If the consumer can pay electronically, the entrepreneur will observe appropriate security measures. The entrepreneur can - within legal frameworks - inform himself whether the consumer can meet his payment obligations, as well as all those facts and factors that are important for a responsible conclusion of the remote agreement. If, on the basis of this investigation, the entrepreneur has good grounds not to enter into the agreement, he is entitled to refuse an order or application or to attach special conditions to the implementation, while giving reasons. The trader will send the consumer the following information with the product or service, in writing or in such a way that the consumer can store it in an accessible manner on a long-term data carrier: 1. the visiting address of the trader's office where the consumer can lodge complaints; 2. the conditions on which and the way in which the consumer can make use of the right of withdrawal, or a clear statement about the exclusion of the right of withdrawal; 3. the information on guarantees and existing after-sales service; 4. the data included in article 4, paragraph 3 of these terms and conditions, unless the trader has already provided the consumer with these data before the performance of the contract; 5. the requirements for terminating the contract if the contract has a duration of more than one year or is of indefinite duration. In case of a duration transaction, the provision in the previous paragraph only applies to the first delivery. Each agreement is entered into under the suspensive conditions of sufficient availability of the relevant products.
Article 6 - Right of withdrawal When purchasing products, the consumer has the possibility of dissolving the agreement without giving reasons for a period of 14 days. This reflection period starts on the day after receipt of the product by the consumer or a representative designated in advance by the consumer and made known to the entrepreneur. During the reflection period, the consumer will handle the product and its packaging with care. He will only unpack or use the product to the extent necessary to assess whether he wishes to keep the product. If he exercises his right of withdrawal, he will return the product to the entrepreneur with all delivered accessories and - if reasonably possible - in the original condition and packaging, in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the entrepreneur. If the consumer wishes to exercise his right of withdrawal, he is obliged to make this known to the entrepreneur within 14 days, after receipt of the product. The consumer should make this known by means of a written message/email. After the consumer has stated that he wishes to exercise his right of withdrawal, he must return the product within 14 days. The consumer must prove that the delivered goods were returned in time, e.g. by means of proof of dispatch. If the customer has not expressed his wish to use his right of withdrawal or has not returned the product to the entrepreneur after the expiry of the periods mentioned in paragraphs 2 and 3, the purchase is a fact.
Article 7 - Costs in case of withdrawal If the consumer makes use of his right of withdrawal, the costs of returning the products are at the expense of the consumer. If the consumer has paid an amount, the entrepreneur will refund this amount as soon as possible, but at the latest within 14 days after revocation. This is subject to the condition that the product has already been received back by the entrepreneur or conclusive proof of complete return can be provided.
Article 8 - Exclusion of the right of withdrawal The trader can exclude the consumer's right of withdrawal for products as described in paragraphs 2 and 3. The exclusion of the right of withdrawal only applies if the trader has clearly stated this in the offer, at least in good time before concluding the contract. Exclusion of the right of withdrawal is only possible for products: 1. that have been created by the entrepreneur in accordance with the consumer's specifications; 2. that are clearly personal in nature; 3. that cannot be returned due to their nature; 4. that spoil or age quickly; 5. whose price is subject to fluctuations in the financial market that are beyond the entrepreneur's control; 6. for single newspapers and magazines; 7. for audio and video recordings and computer software of which the consumer has broken the seal 8. for hygienic products of which the consumer has broken the seal. Exclusion of the right of withdrawal is only possible for services: 1. concerning accommodation, transport, restaurant business or leisure activities to be performed on a certain date or during a certain period; 2. of which the delivery has started with the explicit consent of the consumer before the reflection period has expired; 3. concerning betting and lotteries.
Article 9 - The price During the validity period mentioned in the offer, the prices of the products and/or services on offer will not be increased, except for price changes due to changes in VAT rates. Contrary to the previous paragraph, the Entrepreneur may offer products or services whose prices are subject to fluctuations in the financial market that are beyond the Entrepreneur's control, with variable prices. This link to fluctuations and the fact that any prices mentioned are target prices will be mentioned in the offer. Price increases within 3 months after the conclusion of the contract are only allowed if they are the result of statutory regulations or provisions. Price increases from 3 months after the conclusion of the agreement are only allowed if the entrepreneur has stipulated them and: 1. they are the result of legal regulations or stipulations; or 2. the consumer is authorised to terminate the contract as of the day on which the price increase takes effect. The place of delivery pursuant to Article 5(1) of the Turnover Tax Act 1968 takes place in the country where the transport commences. In the present case, this delivery takes place outside EU. Following this, the postal or courier service will collect import VAT or clearance charges from the customer. Consequently, no VAT will be charged by the entrepreneur. All prices are subject to printing errors. No liability is accepted for the consequences of misprints and typesetting errors. In the event of misprints, the company is not obliged to deliver the product according to the incorrect price.
Article 10 - Conformity and Guarantee The trader guarantees that the products and/or services conform to the contract, to the specifications stated in the offer, to the reasonable requirements of soundness and/or usability and to the existing statutory provisions and/or government regulations on the date the contract was concluded. If agreed, the trader also guarantees that the product is suitable for other than normal use. A guarantee provided by the trader, manufacturer or importer does not affect the legal rights and claims that the consumer can enforce against the trader on the basis of the agreement. Any defective or wrongly delivered products should be reported to the entrepreneur in writing within 14 days after delivery. Return of the products should be in the original packaging and in new condition. The guarantee period of the entrepreneur corresponds to the factory guarantee period. However, the entrepreneur is never responsible for the ultimate suitability of the products for each individual application by the consumer, nor for any advice regarding the use or application of the products. The guarantee does not apply if: The consumer has repaired and/or modified the delivered products himself or has had them repaired and/or modified by third parties; The delivered products have been exposed to abnormal conditions or otherwise treated carelessly or contrary to the instructions of the entrepreneur and/or have been treated on the packaging; The inadequacy is wholly or partially the result of regulations that the government has set or will set regarding the nature or quality of the applied materials.
Article 11 - Delivery and execution The company will take the greatest possible care when receiving and executing product orders. The place of delivery is the address that the consumer has made known to the company. With due observance of what is stated in article 4 of these general terms and conditions, the company will execute accepted orders expeditiously but at the latest within 30 days, unless the consumer has agreed to a longer delivery period. If delivery is delayed, or if an order cannot or can only be partially carried out, the consumer will be informed about this at the latest 30 days after the order was placed. In that case, the consumer has the right to dissolve the agreement without costs and the right to possible damages. In case of dissolution in accordance with the previous paragraph, the entrepreneur will refund the amount paid by the consumer as soon as possible, but at the latest within 14 days after dissolution. If delivery of an ordered product turns out to be impossible, the entrepreneur will make an effort to provide a replacement article. Upon delivery at the latest, it will be clearly and comprehensibly stated that a replacement article is being delivered. With replacement articles, the right of withdrawal cannot be excluded. The costs of any return shipment shall be borne by the entrepreneur. The risk of damage and/or loss of products rests with the entrepreneur until the moment of delivery to the consumer or a representative designated in advance and made known to the entrepreneur, unless explicitly agreed otherwise.
Article 12 - Extended duration transactions: duration, termination and extension Termination The consumer may terminate an open-ended contract that was concluded for the regular supply of products (including electricity) or services at any time, subject to the agreed termination rules and a period of notice that does not exceed one month. The consumer may terminate a fixed-term contract that was concluded for the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services at any time at the end of the fixed term in accordance with the applicable termination rules and a period of notice that does not exceed one month. The consumer may terminate the contracts referred to in the previous paragraphs: at any time and not be limited to termination at a specific time or in a specific period; at least terminate them in the same way as they were entered into by him; always terminate them with the same notice period as the entrepreneur has stipulated for himself. Renewal A fixed-term contract that has been concluded for the regular supply of products (including electricity) or services may not be automatically renewed or renewed for a fixed term. Notwithstanding the previous paragraph, a fixed-term contract that has been concluded for the regular supply of daily or weekly newspapers and magazines may be tacitly renewed for a fixed term not exceeding three months, if the consumer may terminate this renewed contract towards the end of the renewal with a notice period not exceeding one month. A fixed-term contract that has been concluded for the regular supply of products or services may only be tacitly extended for an indefinite period of time if the consumer may terminate it at any time with a period of notice that does not exceed one month and a period of notice that does not exceed three months in the event that the contract relates to the regular, but less than once a month, supply of daily or weekly newspapers and magazines. A limited duration contract for the regular supply of daily or weekly newspapers and magazines by way of introduction (trial or introductory subscription) is not tacitly continued and ends automatically at the end of the trial or introductory period. Duration If a contract lasts more than one year, the consumer may terminate the contract at any time after one year with a notice period of up to one month, unless reasonableness and fairness oppose termination before the end of the agreed term.
Article 13 - Payment Unless otherwise agreed, the amounts owed by the consumer should be paid within 7 working days after the start of the reflection period as referred to in article 6 paragraph 1. In case of an agreement to provide a service, this period starts after the consumer has received the confirmation of the agreement. The consumer has the duty to immediately report inaccuracies in payment details provided or mentioned to the entrepreneur. In case of non-payment by the consumer, the entrepreneur has the right, subject to legal restrictions, to charge the reasonable costs made known in advance to the consumer.
Article 14 - Complaints procedure Complaints about the implementation of the agreement should be submitted to the entrepreneur within 7 days fully and clearly described, after the consumer has found the defects. Complaints submitted to the entrepreneur will be answered within a period of 14 days from the date of receipt. If a complaint requires a foreseeably longer processing time, the entrepreneur will respond within the 14-day period with a notice of receipt and an indication of when the consumer can expect a more detailed answer. If the complaint cannot be resolved by mutual agreement, a dispute arises which is subject to the dispute settlement procedure. A complaint does not suspend the obligations of the entrepreneur, unless the entrepreneur indicates otherwise in writing. If a complaint is found to be justified by the entrepreneur, the entrepreneur will, at his discretion, either replace or repair the delivered products free of charge.
Article 15 - Disputes Contracts between the entrepreneur and the consumer to which these general terms and conditions relate are exclusively governed by US law. Even if the consumer resides abroad.
VAT and Import Policy
Import VAT and Customs Duties
When receiving goods from our store, there may be additional charges, like import VAT or customs duties, that can sometimes apply upon delivery in the UK. Since we ship products directly from outside the UK, any applicable fees are generally handled by the courier or shipping service. Being prepared for these charges at delivery can help ensure a smooth process.
VAT on Overseas Orders
As we ship orders internationally through a third-party provider, some fees may apply when items enter the UK. Our products are sent from overseas, so any related charges are typically part of the import process upon arrival.
