2. YOUR STATUS
By placing an order through our site, you warrant that:
(a) You are legally capable of entering into binding contracts;
and
(b) You are at least 18 years old.
3. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US
After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us
acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note
that this does not mean that your order has been accepted.
Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a Product. All orders
are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such
acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that
the Product has been dispatched (the “Dispatch Confirmation”).
The contract between us (“Contract”) will only be formed when
we send you the Dispatch Confirmation.
The Contract will relate only to those Products whose dispatch
we have confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation. We will not be
obliged 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 Dispatch Confirmation.
4. CANCELLATION RIGHT
If you are contracting as a consumer, you may cancel a Contract
at any time within seven working days, beginning on the day
after you received the Products if you send us a notice of
cancellation in writing and immediately return the goods to us in
their original, unopened and unused condition and at your own
cost and risk. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable
care of the Products while they are in your possession. If you fail
to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action
against you for compensation.
In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for
the Products in accordance with our returns policy (set out in
clause 9 below). For further details of how to return
merchandise please see our Returns and Refunds Policy. You can
submit your cancellation notice by email to our customer
services department at customerservice@zedcandy.com or in
writing to:
Customer Services, Zed Candy Webshop, Church Street, Kilcock,
Co Kildare, Ireland.
You will not have any right to cancel a Contract for the supply of
any of the following Products: Any confectionary or candy,
including without limitation, bubblegum, sweets and jellies.
Details of this statutory right, and an explanation of how to
exercise it, are provided in the Dispatch Confirmation. This
provision does not affect your statutory rights.
5. AVAILABILITY AND DELIVERY
Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the
Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then
within 30 days of the date of the Dispatch Confirmation, unless
there are exceptional circumstances.
6. RISK AND TITLE
The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery.
Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive
full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products,
including delivery charges.
7. PRICE AND PAYMENT
The price of any Products will be as quoted on our site from
time to time, except in cases of obvious error.
These prices are displayed in Euro and Sterling and include VAT
at 21% but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the
total amount due as set out in our Shipping Grid [INSERT AS LINK
TO SITE’S SHIPPING GRID].
Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not
affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you a
Dispatch Confirmation.
Our site contains a large number of Products and it is always
possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products
listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally
verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a
Product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will
charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you.
If a Product´s correct price is higher than the price stated on
our site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you
for instructions before dispatching the Product, or reject your
order and notify you of such rejection.
We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the
incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch
Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable
and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-
pricing.
Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card. We
accept payment with Visa, MasterCard American Express and
Laser Debit Cards. We will not charge your credit or debit card
until we despatch your order.
8. MINIMUM VALUE OF ORDER
We do not accept orders for a value of less than €9.99 or Stg
£6.00 exclusive of delivery costs.
9. RETURNS AND REFUNDS POLICY
