2 ORDER RECEIPT AND OUR CONTRACT
2.1 ORDER PROCEDURE
When you place an order to purchase a product from the website, we will send you confirmation of your order, containing the relevant details, terms and conditions. You are encouraged to review this confirmation and notify Mascot International Ltd. if the order confirmation in your opinion does not correspond to the order placed. You are encouraged to save and possibly print the order confirmation.
Your order represents an offer to us to purchase a product which is accepted by us when we ship that product to you and when a confirmation is sent to you confirming that we have shipped the order to you or notifying you that the order is ready to be picked up. That acceptance will be complete at the time we send a shipping confirmation to you. You are seeking to enter into a contract with Mascot International Ltd. when you place an order. Mascot International Ltd. will retain the title in the products until full payment has been made by you and has been received by Mascot International Ltd..
2.2 INVOICE
Mascot International Ltd. will send you an invoice by e-mail immediately after shipment of the order.
3 PRICES AND PAYMENT
3.1 PRICES AND CURRENCY
The current price is the price specified on the website next to the relevant product at the date of the order. All products are invoiced in British Pound (GBP) and all prices, charges and costs are quoted in GBP on the website, on the order confirmation and on the invoice.
All prices quoted are inclusive of charges and may be shown inclusive or exclusive of VAT; see the specification listed for each product.
3.2 DELIVERY COSTS
If the product is to be delivered at a specific address, an amount may be charged to cover the shipment costs. The shipment costs will appear on the list confirmed by you prior to purchase and will also appear from the order confirmation sent by e-mail.
If the product is picked up at Mascot International Ltd.'s premises, no delivery costs will be charged.
3.3 CREDIT/DEBIT CARD PAYMENT
We accept payment with recognised credit and debit cards, cf. the website. The amount is not charged to the card until the product has been delivered.
Website payments are handled by Bambora. Bamboras payment system is based on the SSL standard, which means that any information provided in connection with the payment transaction is protected by way of encryption. Card and account information is transmitted in an encrypted form for the purpose of payment and validation and the information is neither registered nor saved in any other way by Mascot International Ltd..
3.4 ACCOUNT PAYMENTS
It is also possible to make payments from an account/per invoice if this function has been activated by Mascot International Ltd.. The conditions related thereto must be separately agreed with Mascot International Ltd..
3.5 DELAYED PAYMENTS
An amount falls due for payment when the product has been delivered and the purchase is subject to sufficient credit being available on the credit/debit card used for the purchase.
In case of delayed payment, e.g. because the invoiced amount cannot be withdrawn from the account or if you illegitimately suspend a payment or demand that the payment be reversed:
if you are purchasing as a consumer a reasonable reminder fee will be charged, and default interest will be charged from the due date and until payment is received at the rate of 2%; and
if you are purchasing as a business operator, a reasonable reminder fee will be charged and default interest and fixed sum recovery costs will be charged in accordance with current legislation on late payments in commercial contracts.
4 DELIVERIES
4.1 TIME OF DELIVERY
We deliver within 3-7 days. As Mascot International Ltd. cannot guarantee for local delivery circumstances, we cannot state with certainty when the product will be delivered to the requested address.
If the shipment of the ordered products is delayed, Mascot International Ltd. will notify you as soon as possible by an e-mail sent to the e-mail address you have provided.
Unless we have agreed a longer delivery time, delivery will be not more than 30 days after the date the contract between us is entered into.
5 COMPLAINTS – ERRORS AND DEFECTS
5.1 IN GENERAL
You are encouraged to review and inspect the products immediately upon receipt, including an inspection as to whether the products may be damaged, and to ensure that the products delivered correspond to the products ordered.
5.2 A COMPLAINTS DEADLINE OF 24 MONTHS FOR ALL PRODUCTS
For all products, you have 24 months to submit a complaint, i.e. a claim for errors or defects cannot be submitted later than 24 months after delivery of the product.
Any errors or defects in the received products must be claimed within a reasonable time after such errors or defects have been noted or should have been noted. If a complaint is submitted within two months after a defect has been noted, the complaint is considered timely.
The right of complaint only applies to errors and defects related to the product that were present at the time of delivery and not errors and defects which have occurred due to wrongful use in contravention of the user instructions/maintenance instructions, or in case the product has been damaged after the receipt.
5.3 COMPLAINTS AND RETURNS
Any products having errors or defects, including any errors or defects which have occurred in connection with repairs or replacement deliveries, shall be returned at Mascot International Ltd.'s expense but at your risk, and you are thus always encouraged to pack the products sufficiently in case of return. When returning a product, you must specify the nature of such error or defect and you are encouraged to enclose a copy of the order confirmation and/or the invoice.
Products must be returned to the address specified in section 5.3. Any complaints must also be sent to this address.
5.4 REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENT DELIVERIES
In case of an error or a defect related to the product that appears within the deadline specified in section 6.2, and provided that a complaint is submitted in due time, you generally have the right to require Mascot International Ltd. to:
1. Remedy the defect;
2. Deliver a new product in accordance with the agreement (make a replacement delivery);
3. Accept a proportionate reduction of the purchase price, or
4. Cancel the purchase, if the defect is not insignificant.
A request for remedial action or replacement delivery cannot be submitted if this is impossible or will result in unreasonable costs for Mascot International Ltd..
If Mascot International Ltd. accepts to take remedial action or to make a replacement delivery, you cannot claim a reduction of the purchase price or cancel the purchase.
Mascot International Ltd. must comply with the request for remedial action within reasonable time. If Mascot International Ltd. does not comply with your request for remedial action within a reasonable time, you are entitled to claim a proportionate reduction of the purchase price, to cancel the purchase or to request a replacement delivery.
If remedial action is not possible, Mascot International Ltd. will instead refund the purchase price including any documented expenses related to the return shipment.
5.5 LIABILITY
You have certain legal rights. These include that any goods will be of satisfactory quality and fit for their intended purpose, the remedies for defective goods set out in clause 6.4, that the information which
Mascot International Ltd. gives you about the goods and about the terms of this Agreement is to be treated as a term of the contract, and the cancellation rights set out in clause 5. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions is intended to affect these legal rights.
Nothing in these terms in conditions is intended to exclude or limit the liability of Mascot International Ltd. for death or personal injury due to Mascot International Ltd.'s negligence or that of Mascot International Ltd.'s employees or agents, or for fraudulent misrepresentation by Mascot International Ltd. or its employees or agents.
