4. Product information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, photographs, specifications, quantities, colours and other information displayed on the website are accurate.

However:

  • Colours may vary slightly depending on screen settings

  • Product packaging may change

  • Minor design differences may occur between production batches

  • Dimensions and piece counts may be approximate where identified as such

  • Product images may include display items not supplied with the product

Material product features, included contents and exclusions will be disclosed on the applicable product page.

If a product received is materially different from its description, the customer may exercise the rights available under our Refund, Return and Cancellation Policy and applicable law.

5. Product availability

Products displayed on the website may be:

  • Held in stock by us;

  • Obtained from a supplier after the customer places an order; or

  • Subject to supplier or fulfilment availability.

Where a product is not immediately held in stock, this may contribute to the stated delivery period.

Adding a product to a shopping cart does not reserve it.

An order is subject to:

  • Successful payment

  • Product availability

  • Verification of order information

  • Acceptance of the order by us

If a product becomes unavailable after payment, we will notify the customer and provide an appropriate remedy in accordance with applicable law.

6. Prices

All product prices are displayed in South African rand unless stated otherwise.

Prices will indicate whether applicable taxes are included.

Additional charges, where applicable, may include:

  • Shipping or courier fees

  • Remote-area delivery charges

  • Optional expedited services

  • Other charges clearly disclosed before checkout

The full amount payable will be shown before the customer confirms the order.

We reserve the right to update prices, but a price change will not ordinarily affect an order that has already been accepted and paid for.

7. Pricing errors

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that prices displayed on the website are correct.

If a genuine and obvious pricing or technical error occurs, we may contact the customer before fulfilling the order.

We will not use this provision to avoid a valid transaction unfairly or contrary to applicable consumer law.

Where an order cannot lawfully or reasonably be fulfilled because of a genuine error, the customer will receive an appropriate refund.

8. Payment methods

Available payment methods will be displayed during checkout and may include payment services provided by authorised third-party payment processors.

Payment may be subject to:

  • Verification

  • Fraud screening

  • Bank authorisation

  • Payment-provider terms

  • Transaction limits

We do not ordinarily store customers’ complete card details on our own systems where payment is processed by an independent payment provider.

The customer is responsible for ensuring that they are authorised to use the selected payment method.

9. Order formation

Submitting an order constitutes an offer by the customer to purchase the selected products.

An automated order confirmation acknowledges receipt of the order but may not by itself mean that the order has been finally accepted.

An order is ordinarily accepted when:

  • Payment has been successfully received or authorised;

  • Product availability has been confirmed; and

  • We begin processing or dispatching the order.

We may contact the customer if additional verification or information is required.

10. Shipping and delivery

Our standard estimated delivery period is 8–12 business days after payment and order confirmation, unless another timeframe is clearly shown on the relevant product page.

Business days exclude Saturdays, Sundays and South African public holidays.

Products may first be received at our fulfilment location and then handed to Aramex for final delivery to the customer.

Our detailed delivery terms are available in our separate Shipping and Delivery Policy, which forms part of the terms applicable to an order.

11. Delivery risk

Goods remain at our risk until accepted by:

  • The customer; or

  • A person authorised to receive the parcel on the customer’s behalf.

Customers should inspect products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and report visible damage, incorrect products or missing contents promptly.

12. Refunds, returns and cancellations

Refunds, returns, defective products, online cooling-off rights, cancellations and exchanges are governed by our separate Refund, Return and Cancellation Policy.

Nothing in that policy or this legal notice is intended to remove any mandatory consumer right.

For voluntary change-of-mind returns, we may require products to be unused, unassembled, complete and returned with their original packaging.

Original packaging will not be used as an absolute condition to deny a valid statutory claim involving defective, unsafe, incorrect, incomplete or materially misdescribed goods.

13. Consumer protection

Our products and services are supplied subject to applicable South African consumer-protection laws.

Nothing in this notice:

  • Requires a customer to waive a statutory right

  • Excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded

  • Removes the implied warranty of quality

  • Prevents a customer from pursuing an available remedy

  • Allows us to impose unfair, unreasonable or unjust terms

Where a provision of this notice conflicts with mandatory law, the applicable law will prevail.
