Sales
These Terms and Conditions govern the sale of goods and services available on our Site.

 

Goods and services will be paid for in full when ordered.

​

These Terms and Conditions apply to all the goods that are displayed on our Site. This includes all products listed as being out of stock. All information, descriptions, or images that we provide about our goods and services are as accurate as possible and are intended to give an approximation of what your product may look like. However, we are not legally bound by such information, descriptions, or images as we cannot guarantee the accuracy of all goods and services we provide. You agree to purchase goods and services from our Site at your own risk.

While we fulfill your orders to match the images on the site as closely as possible, we cannot guarantee that your computer monitor's display of the colours of the products we sell will be accurate or that the colours, containers or any part of your order will be exactly as shown in the images on the Site. 

 

Occasionally, due to stock unavailability substitutions may be necessary. When substitutions are necessary, equal value replacements are used to maintain the style, theme and color scheme of the original order. You will be notified and asked to give confirmation before substitutions are made.

 

Orders placed during peak holidays (Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Christmas, etc ) are final.  Orders placed at other times may be cancelled forty-eight (48) hours before the delivery or pick-up date.

If you have any special instructions regarding your order, we will do our best to fulfill your request but be advised there is no guarantee we can follow them.

 

Special offers, coupons, or discounts cannot be used in conjunction with other offers, nor can they be redeemed for cash value. Limit one promotion per order.
