6. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US 

6.1 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.

6.2 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 in clause 6.3.

6.3 We will confirm our acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail (Dispatch Confirmation).  The Contract between us will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation.

6.4 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 site, we will inform you of this by e-mail and we will not process your order. If you have already paid for the Products, we will refund you the full amount including any delivery costs charged as soon as possible.

7.4 If we have to revise these Terms as they apply to your order, we will contact you to give you reasonable advance notice of the changes and let you know how to cancel the Contract if you are not happy with the changes. You may cancel either in respect of all the affected Products or just the Products you have yet to receive. If you opt to cancel, you will have to return (at our cost) any relevant Products you have already received and we will arrange a full refund of the price you have paid, including any delivery charges.

8. YOUR CONSUMER RIGHT OF RETURN AND REFUND

This clause 8 only applies if you are a consumer.

8.1 If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to cancel a Contract during the period set out below in clause 8.2. This means that during the relevant period, if you change your mind, or decide for any other reason that you do not want to receive or keep a Product, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund. Advice about your legal right to cancel the Contract is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.

8.2 Your legal right to cancel a Contract starts from the date of the Dispatch Confirmation (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your order), which is when the Contract between us is formed. Your deadline for cancelling the Contract then depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered, as set out in the table below:

 

Your Contract	End of the cancellation period
Your Contract is for a single Product (which is not delivered in instalments on separate days).	The end date is the end of 14 days after the day on which you receive the Product. Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the Product on 10 January you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January.
Your Contract is for either of the following: - One Product which is delivered in instalments on separate days. - Multiple Products which are delivered on separate days.	The end date is 14 days after the day on which you receive the last instalment of the Product or the last of the separate Products ordered. Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the first instalment of your Product or the first of your separate Products on 10 January and the last instalment or last separate Product on 15 January you may cancel in respect of all instalments and any or all of the separate Products at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 29 January.
Your Contract is for the regular delivery of a Product over a set period.	The end date is 14 days after the day on which you receive the first delivery of the Products. Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January in respect of Products to be delivered at regular intervals over a year and you receive the first delivery of your Product on 10 January, you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January. 24 January is the last day of the cancellation period in respect of all Products to arrive during the year.

      

8.3 To cancel a Contract, you need to let us know that you have decided to cancel in writing.  You can e-mail us at customerservice@tateossian.com or contact our customer services team by telephone on UK +44 (0) 800 021 1008 / US +1 855 998 1008 or by post to Tateossian London Customer Service, The Fulham Business Exchange, The Boulevard, Imperial Wharf, London, SW6-2TL, United Kingdom. If you are e-mailing us or writing to us please include details of your order to help us to identify it. If you send us your cancellation notice by e-mail or by post, then your cancellation is effective from the date you send us the e-mail or post the letter to us. For example, you will have given us notice in time, as long as you get your letter into the last post on the last day of the cancellation period or e-mail us before midnight on that day.

8.4 If you cancel your Contract we will:

(a) Refund you the price you paid for the Products. However, please note that we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.

(b) Refund any delivery costs you have paid. However, please note that the maximum refund will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer (provided that this is a common and generally acceptable method). For example, if we offer delivery of a Product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the Product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.

(c) make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within the deadlines indicated below:

(i) if you have received the Product and we have not offered to collect it from you: 14 days after the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us.  For information about how to return a Product to us, see clause 8.9;

(ii) if you have not received the Product or you have received it and we have offered to collect it from you: 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract.

8.5 If you have returned the Products to us under this clause 8 because they are faulty or not as described, we will refund the price of the Products in full, together with any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the Product to us.

8.6 In order to ensure the safe return of Product/s we recommend that you obtain proof of postage from the post office and retain this proof of postage until you have received your refund.

8.7 We reserve the right to refuse to refund or exchange Products that are returned to us that are not in a resalable condition.

8.8 All refunds will be made via the original payment method.

8.9 If a Product has been delivered to you before you decide to cancel your Contract:

(a) then you must return it to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you let us know that you wish to cancel the Contract;

(b) unless the Product is faulty or not as described (in this case, see clause 8.5), you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Products to us. If the Product is one which cannot be returned by post, we estimate that if you use the carrier which delivered the Product to you, these costs should not exceed the sums we charged you for delivery. If we have offered to collect the Product from you, we will charge you the direct cost to us of the collection.

8.10 If you elect to cancel the Contract by either refusing the Products (other than for reasons set out in 8.5) at the point of delivery or not paying any import charges or other taxes, all charges related to the return will be your responsibility (the party ordering the Products) and will be deducted from the refund.

8.11 As you are a consumer, we are under a legal duty to supply Products that are in conformity with this Contract. As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Products that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by your right of return and refund in this clause 8 or anything else in these Terms. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.

 

9. DELIVERY

9.1 We will contact you with an estimated delivery date, which will be within 30 days after the date of the Dispatch Confirmation (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your order). Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an Event Outside Our Control. See clause 14 for our responsibilities when this happens.

9.2 Delivery of an order shall be completed when we deliver the Products to the address you gave us when placing the order, and the Products will be your responsibility from that time.

9.3 You own the Products once we have received payment in full, including all applicable delivery charges.

9.4 Any delivery date indicated is an estimate only.  As a guide, please allow up to 5 working days for delivery within the UK and 7 working days for International delivery from receipt of Dispatch Confirmation. This is subject to goods being in stock. You should allow for a longer delivery time during the holiday periods. All deliveries are sent from London using FedEx Express Worldwide.

9.5 We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the Products to you. If so, this will have been stated in the description of the Products on our site. We will contact you in writing to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we will inform you and either not take payment or, where we have already done so, offer you a full refund to your original method of payment. We will not be responsible for supplying the Products late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

 

This clause 9.6 only applies if you are a consumer.

9.6 If we miss the 30-day delivery deadline for any Products, then you may cancel your order straight away if any of the followings apply:

(a) we have refused to deliver the Products;
(b) delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or

(c) you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.

9.7 If you do not wish to cancel your order straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 9.6, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can cancel your order if we do not meet the new deadline.

9.8 If you do choose to cancel your order for late delivery under clause 9.6 or clause 9.7, you can do so for some of the Products or all of them, unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. If the Products have been delivered to you, you will have to return them to us or allow us to collect them, and we will pay the costs of this. After you cancel your order we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled Products and their delivery.

10. PRICES OF PRODUCTS AND DELIVERY CHARGES

10.1 The prices of the Products will be as quoted on our site 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 our site. However, please see clause 10.5 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of Product(s) you have ordered.

10.2 The price of a Product displayed will, based on information we can gather regarding your visit to our site, display all relevant sales taxes (where applicable) at the applicable current rate. However, if the rate of tax changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the tax you pay, unless you have already paid for the Products in full before the change in tax takes effect.  In the event you input a delivery location which is different to that which we log for your visit, we shall calculate sales tax and delivery to that location during the checkout stage.

10.3 The price of a Product does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process before you confirm your order. To check relevant delivery charges, please refer to our delivery charges, below:

UK: £5.99	Europe: €20
USA: US$20	Rest of World: US$25

      

10.4 We cannot be held responsible should local customs authorities wish to confiscate any particular item ordered, or charge any import duty on such items. We cannot guarantee that the sale and delivery of our goods to your particular country or location is permissible, so please be aware of your own geographic import restrictions and duties that may apply by law. You are responsible for paying all customs import duties, taxes and additional charges which may apply to your order, including any applicable currency exchange fees. If you require further information please contact your local customs office.

10.5 It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the Products on our site may be incorrectly priced. If we discover an error in the price of the Products you have ordered we will contact you to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided to us during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing. Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price.

 

11. HOW TO PAY

11.1 You can pay for Products using a debit card, credit card or PayPal (subject to availability).

11.2 Payment for the Products and all applicable delivery charges is in advance. We will not charge your debit card or credit card until we dispatch your order.

11.3 Credit card payments are handled by our third party payment processor. Our third party payment processor will collect and may retain your credit card information in order to process your payment. For more information about our use of third-party service providers, please review our Privacy Policy.

11.4 We reserve the right to verify credit or debit card payments prior to Acceptance. We may cancel or suspend your order if the payment method cannot be verified, is invalid, or is otherwise not acceptable. You are responsible for resolving any payment problems.

16.5 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

16.6 In the event you purchase a watch from us, we will accept your old watch and dispose of it for you, provided you return your old watch to us within 28 days of purchasing the new watch.

16.7 If you are a consumer, please note that these Terms are governed by English law.
