PLACING ORDERS ON THE WEBSITE
ELIGIBILITY TO ORDER
To place an order on the Website, you must be:
- at least 16 years old
- a consumer - not a reseller
HOW TO ORDER
You need an e-mail address to place an order, and you may need to set your browser to accept both (functional) cookies and pop-ups in order to be able to use all the functionalities of the Website, which includes designing customised items, adding items to your shopping cart and submitting your order.
Placing an order on the Website is easy:
- Find the products you want (and customise if applicable).
- Add the products to your shopping cart.
- Proceed to checkout.
- Select delivery and billing options.
- Review your order.
- Submit your order.
- Receive an online order acknowledgment.
- Receive an online order confirmation.
When you submit an order we will send you an email acknowledging receipt of your order. This does not mean that we have accepted your order. Our acceptance of the order takes place when the Products are shipped to you - we will send you an email confirming that the Products have been shipped (“Order Confirmation”). At this point a contract, containing these general conditions, comes into existence and is binding on you and us (the “Contract”). We recommend that you print or download a copy of these general conditions and the Order Confirmation for future reference.
If we are unable to supply you with a product, we will inform you of this in writing and will not process the order.
OUR RIGHT TO REJECT YOUR ORDER OR CANCEL A CONTRACT
Fulfillment of all orders on the Website is subject to availability. We explicitly reserve the right not to accept your order for any reason. We also reserve the right to cancel a Contract by written notice to you in the following situations, without being liable for any damage or costs other than repayment of any amount received from you in relation to the Contract we have cancelled:
- the product is not available / in stock
- your billing information is not correct or not verifiable
- your order is flagged up by our security systems as an unusual order or an order susceptible to fraud
- you are under 16
- you are a reseller
- there was a clear error in the price displayed on the Website
- we could not deliver to the address provided by you
- due to an Event Outside Our Control (see art. 10 below)
- in the event of clear misspelling, pricing or other errors or mistakes in the Website information.
DATA CHECK
When you send us your order, we may run some checks on it before it is fulfilled. These checks may include verifying your address, creditworthiness, and checking for fraud. As to the latter: we run partly automated checks on all purchases to filter out unusual or suspect transactions, or transactions which can be identified as susceptible to fraud. Suspected fraud on jcade.co.uk will be investigated and if necessary prosecuted.
PRICE/PAYMENT
PAYMENT METHODS
You can find the available payment methods for each country in the help section of the Website. We do not accept any method of payment other than those listed in the help section. Please do not try to pay by any other way than specified there. If you do, we will not be liable for loss of the payment or any other damages that may result from this action.
PAYMENT PROCESSING
If you pay by credit/debit card, we will deduct the amount due from your account as soon as your order leaves our warehouse. If you pay by bank transfer, we will start delivery (or manufacturing in the case of customised products) after we receive your payment. This may take several days. In the event that no payment has been received within 12 calendar days after you submitted your order, your purchase will automatically be cancelled. Payments can only be processed if the billing information can be verified. We retain title in any product(s) until we have received full payment for such product(s).
PRICES AND CURRENCY
The product prices displayed on the Website are inclusive of Value-Added Tax (VAT). Shipping rates are applied per order. The exact shipping rates depend on the country where your order is being delivered to. For details on shipping rates per country see the help section of the Website. Prices are quoted in Euro with the exception of UK, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland and Denmark where prices are quoted in local currency. If you change the country of delivery while browsing or during check out, prices from that moment may be quoted in a different currency. Please note that changing the country of delivery may have an influence on the price due to a change in currency or to country specific pricing.
YOUR TOTAL PRICE
The total price specified in the final check out screen includes tax and shipping costs. This price will be recorded in the Order Confirmation, which we recommend you print or download for future reference. If paying by credit card, the total amount for your entire order will be reflected on your statement in your local currency. If your local currency is different from the currency in which the prices are quoted, your bank will apply the exchange rate applicable per the date of purchase. Your bank may apply a different exchange rate, which is beyond our control. Please transfer only the exact amount specified on the Order Confirmation, and make individual transfers per order, using the unique reference number stated in your Order Confirmation.
PRICE CHANGES
The prices of the products will be as displayed on the Website. Prices may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order which we have confirmed in an Order Confirmation.
CUSTOMISING ITEMS
CUSTOMISATION CONDITIONS
For most customised items, you can submit a combination of letters, spaces and numbers to form an “ID” – a personalised message that appears on your creation. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to decline an ID, for example because it contains a trademark belonging to third party, or the names of sports teams, athletes or celebrities that you (or JCADE) do not have the right to use, or because it contains material that we consider inappropriate. If we reject your ID you will be notified as soon as possible by e-mail.
CONSUMER ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS RELATING TO CUSTOMISATION
Both your design of the item (the colour combination etc.) and the personalisation shall be created by you. To the extent this is not the case, you hereby guarantee that you are authorised to use the design or the personalisation created by someone else. Please understand that whilst we have the right to decline your personalisation or your design, you are solely responsible for your design and personalisation, and we have no obligation to review or decline your design or personalisation. Your design and your personalisation qualify as what we call “User Generated Content”. Article 12 of these general conditions about User Generated Content is applicable to your design and your personalisation.
SHIPPING & DELIVERY
DELIVERY – WHERE AND WHEN
We deliver products from Monday to Friday. We do not ship on certain public holidays. Please refer to the help section of the Website for dates and the available delivery times and methods. We can only fulfill an order to a delivery address which is a home or office address in one of the countries listed in the help section of the Website.
SPLIT DELIVERY
Where possible, we try to deliver all items which you have ordered at the same time. However, please note that due to the fact that customised products are manufactured at different factories, an order for multiple customised products may result in split shipments. We reserve the right to split the delivery of your order, for instance if part of your order is delayed or unavailable. In the event that we split your order, we will notify you of our intention to do so by sending you an e-mail to the e-mail address provided by you at the time your order was placed. You will not be charged for any additional delivery costs.
INSPECTION UPON DELIVERY
Upon delivery, please inspect the packaging for damage. If it appears that the products are damaged, please do not accept the shipment.
SHIPPING RATES
If you make a purchase that exceeds the threshold relevant to your delivery country, you will receive FREE ‘standard delivery’, or the option of discounted ‘express delivery’. See the help section of the Website for threshold amounts and their corresponding discounted delivery rates.
RETURNS & CANCELLATIONS
CANCELLING ORDER BEFORE DELIVERY
You may cancel any order for non-customised products free of charge and without giving us any reason, provided it has not yet been shipped. We begin processing orders placed at our online store almost immediately. If you wish to cancel your order, please check the status of your order first by visiting the "Order status" link at the top right of the Website. If the status of your order is "Pending" or "On Hold" you may cancel your order by contacting our call centre (see help section of the Website). Our consumer service agents will request a cancellation of your order at our warehouse. If successful, they will send you an email and the cancellation will be free of charge. If cancellation is not possible, the product(s) will be delivered to you and may be returned in accordance with the procedure set out below. Customised orders cannot be cancelled before shipment, because we start building the customised products immediately after receiving the order. You are however entitled to return your order in accordance with the return procedures and conditions below (see art 7.2 and 7.3 below.)
RETURNING ORDERS AFTER DELIVERY – DEFECTIVES
You are entitled to return products delivered to you in the event that they are defective or otherwise not in conformity with your order when you received them. You can do so within 2 months after you notice the defect. This does not affect your statutory rights. In the event your claim is justified, the purchase price and the shipping costs will be refunded. For practical information on how to return, see the help section of the Website.
EXERCISING YOUR RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
If for whatever reason you are not happy with the products you ordered, you may return the products delivered to you within 30 calendar days after the product is delivered, without giving us any reason, as long as:
- the products are unwashed and not used in any way (you are allowed to try garments or shoes on for fit, unless we have indicated otherwise - but you cannot wear them)
- the product is complete: e.g. both items of a pair must be returned You cannot return:
- products that have been tampered with
- sealed audio, video recordings or sealed computer software or audiovisual products of which an affixed seal is broken For information on refunds, see art 7.5 below. For practical information on how to return, see the help section of the Website. If you inform us that you wish to return a product, we shall reimburse to you all payments received, including the delivery costs (with the exception of any supplementary costs resulting from your choice of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us) and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to exercise your right of withdrawal.
PRODUCT EXCHANGE
Product exchanges are currently not possible, but you do have the option of returning your product(s). See art 7.2 and 7.3 above. For information on refunds, see art 7.5 below. In order to get another product colour or size, you will have to place a new order on the Website.
REFUND INFORMATION
Refunds will be issued based on the original form of payment. If you paid via bank transfer you need to give this information to Customer Service when you initiate the return so that we can refund the money directly to your account. In the event you return goods for reasons other than defectiveness or non-conformity with your order, you will need to pay for the return shipment. For practical information on how to return and for refund timelines, see the help section of the Website. Please read the help section information and follow the directions carefully in order to prevent unnecessary delay. If you paid with Domestic Maestro and did not fill in the ‘issue number’ or ‘start date’ field during checkout, we will not be able to process your return and/or grant you a refund.
CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO PRE-ORDERED PRODUCTS
Pre-order is the process by which you are able to order a product in advance of the scheduled retail launch. Due to the nature of pre ordering, the following specific conditions apply to pre-ordered products: Delivery. Pre-ordered products are targeted to be delivered before the retail launch date, provided that we have received your payment at least 3 working days before such date. Concrete delivery times depend on the moment the product is available in our warehouse. Standard delivery timelines will apply from the moment the pre-ordered product is available in our warehouse. This information is best estimates only, timelines are not binding. Payment. Your payment will be deducted as soon as the order is received (or, in the event of bank transfer, as soon as possible). We will not start the execution of your order prior to having received payment. For bank transfers this may mean that delivery will be later than set out under the bullet point above. Separate shipping. Pre-ordered products are shipped separately. They will not be shipped with regular product you may have ordered. Unfortunately, due to technical limitations from our side, the pre orders will show in your “goods shipped” confirmation e-mail and in your order status online. This is incorrect. Please disregard this information. You will receive a separate shipping confirmation once the product is shipped. Product launch date. The scheduled retail launch date (product launch) for your pre-order product can be found in the product description page on the Website.
