HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US
Our shopping pages will guide you through the steps you need to take to place an order with us. Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please take the time to read and check your order at each page of the order process.
After you place an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. However, please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Our acceptance of your order will take place as described below.
We will confirm our acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms your order has been accepted and has been dispatched. Once we send this order acceptance and dispatch email, a binding contract will be formed between us (the \”Contract\”).
If we cannot accept your order
If we are unable to supply you with a Product, for example because that Product is not in stock or no longer available or because we cannot meet your requested delivery date or because of an error in the price on our website as referred to below, we will inform you of this by e-mail and we will not process your order. If you have already paid for a Product that we are unable to supply, we will refund you the full amount including any delivery costs charged as soon as possible.
If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this in writing and will not charge you for the Product.
By way of example only, this might be because the Product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the Product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.
Your order number
We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.
We only sell to EGYPT.
Our website is solely for the promotion of our products in Egypt. Unfortunately, we do not deliver to addresses outside of Egypt.
OUR PRODUCTS
Products may vary slightly from their pictures
The images of the Products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colors accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device\’s display of the colors accurately reflects the color of the Products. Your Product may vary slightly from those images.
Products packaging may vary
The packaging of the Products may vary from that shown in images on our website.
Use by dates
We have a minimum 28 day use by /sell by policy which means that no Product will be shipped for delivery which has less than 28 days to expiry.
PRICE & PAYMENT
Where to find the price for the Product
All prices are in pounds sterling, exclude delivery charges and VAT where stated. The complete price for goods ordered including VAT and delivery charges will be clearly displayed prior to final checkout.
We use our best efforts to ensure that the price of the Product advised to you is correct. However please see below for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Product you order.
We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT
If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the Product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
What happens if we got the price wrong?
The prices of the Products will be as quoted on our website at the time you submit your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices of Products are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system.
Prices for our Products may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order we have already accepted.
The price of a Product includes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Products in full before the change in VAT takes effect.
The price of a Product does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process and displayed on our website, before you confirm your order.
It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Product\’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Product\’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order.
If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognized by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
