We will take all reasonable professional care to ensure that all details, descriptions, images of Products (including those appearing on the Website) are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we do not warrant that any details, descriptions, images of Products are totally accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free.

Applicable prices shall be the ones published on the Website at the date you place an order, or as displayed at the location of purchase if you buy your Product in person.

Despite our best efforts, a small number of the Products may display outdated prices to the actual product price. If a Product's correct price is lower than our displayed price, we charge the lower amount and send you the Product. If a Product's correct price is higher than our displayed price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation, except if you purchase from a third party in which case the final Product price will be subject to the third party’s terms and conditions.

Delivery charges, if applicable, are displayed to you prior to finalising an order and shall be added to the price of the Products and are indicated separately on the order form. Shipping and handling charges for Products subject to international shipping are the Customer’s sole responsibility and liability, including any duties, taxes and / or shipping costs that may arise upon import into the designated country. Upon receipt of Products returned, we reserve the right to deny a refund if the returned Product is due to the Customer’s inability or refusal to settle any duties, taxes and / or shipping costs arising from international shipping to the Customer’s designated destination or due to errors in or incomplete delivery information provided.

In your engagement of the Services or purchase of the Products, you agree that advance payment in full of the stated purchase price shall be payable upon receipt of our invoice or upon arriving at the payment page on the Website, unless provided otherwise (such as Singapore orders which are subject to cash-on-delivery payment). For all orders from outside of Singapore, payment must be received before the relevant part of the Service engagement can take place or the Product is delivered.

For Consignment Sales - For all Products that are sold by you as our consignee, you shall be entitled to retain the agreed commission percentage from the selling price as specified in the packing list. As consignee, you shall provide us with a monthly sales report [within the end of the month] [NOTE: Please confirm.] with respect to the preceding month. Based on this report, we shall send an invoice of monthly sales to you as the consignee of the total sales minus the agreed commission. You shall process payment no later than [a week after the invoice date] [NOTE: Please confirm.] to our designated account as stated in our invoice. We are entitled to charge you interest at the rate of 10% per annum calculated daily. Any costs we incur in taking steps to enforce payment terms against you will be recoverable and payable by you.

The fee is to be paid to us by the available payment options of bank transfer or PayNow (“Payment Gateway Provider”) subject to applicable further terms imposed by the Payment Gateway Provider from time to time. Once the full purchase price is received by us, we shall provide a receipt to you and confirm how you will receive the Product or Service purchased, as applicable.

If you elect to pay by credit card a surcharge levied by the Payment Gateway Provider may be payable and, if applicable, will be added to the final bill payment.

You shall familiarize yourself with, and agree to also be bound by, the applicable terms and privacy policy of the applicable Payment Gateway Provider

5. RETURNS, CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS

At the time of your purchase, you will confirm your express consent to receiving access to our Products or Services instantly. If you are sent a direct access or download link (whether to a Product or a Service) at the point of purchase, no refunds will be available.

We will provide a 30-day money back guarantee on unopened Products received in original condition, provided you pay the shipping charges on returned orders. Shipping and handling charges for returned Products are non-refundable unless we have made a shipping error. Customers using a third-party shipping service are responsible for any duties, taxes and shipping costs that may occur, and liable for any damages from such third-party shipping service. Upon receipt of Products returned, we reserve the right to deny a refund if the returned Product does not meet our Product return requirements set out in these Terms.

Occasionally, orders or parts of an order are cancelled by our system for various reasons. Some reasons are:

  • (a) Item(s) not available, although we take all professional care to ensure that unavailable items are clearly identified as such on the Website;
  • (b) Impossibility in processing payment information;
  • (c) Cannot deliver to address provided;
  • (d) Duplicate order was placed; or
  • (e) Cancellation due to your request;

Any damaged or defective Product must be returned to us immediately upon discovery of such damage or defect. We exclude all liability arising from the use of such damaged or defective Product which may arise, whether directly or indirectly, from your failure to immediately return such item to us.

We remain the owner of any Products we supply to you until you have paid all amounts owed to us in full. The Products are at your risk as soon as they leave our premises for delivery to you.

If any applicable legislation implies any condition or warranty, and such legislation prohibits us from excluding or modifying the application of, or our liability under, any such condition or warranty, that condition or warranty will be deemed to be included, save that our liability will be limited to a breach of that condition or warranty to the following to be determined at our sole election:

  • (a) if the breach relates to Products, the replacement or repair of the Products, or payment of the cost of replacing the Product or of acquiring equivalent products;
  • (b) if the breach relates to Services, the resupply of the Services again or the payment of the cost of having the Services supplied again; or
  • (c) a full refund of the price paid for such Product or Service

For Consignment Sales - For all Products that are sold by you as our consignee, the Products shall remain our property until they are sold by you to customers. You as the consignee shall procure and maintain insurance on the Products from the time the Products are first on your premises or in hands of your representative (whichever is earlier) until they are sold or returned to us. To the extent not covered by insurance, you shall be responsible for any loss or damage to the Products so long as they have not been accepted in return by us, including (but not limited) to the extent that loss or damage is a direct result of your negligence. Natural defects, production defects and / or any deterioration of the Products due to environment and / or exposure while in your possession are beyond our control and therefore are not our responsibility.
