Registration and use of the website

 

Only registered users may order Goods on the Website.

To register as a user, you must provide an email address and password and provide certain information and personal details to M-Scents. You will need to use your email and password to access the Website in order to purchase Goods.

You agree and warrant that your username and password shall be used for personal use only; and not be disclosed by you to any third party.

For security purposes you agree to enter the correct username and password whenever ordering Goods, failing which you will be denied access.

You agree that, once the correct username and password relating to your account have been entered, irrespective of whether the use of the username and password is unauthorised or fraudulent, you will be liable for payment of such order, save where the order is canceled by you in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.

You agree to notify M-Scents immediately upon becoming aware of or reasonably suspecting any unauthorised access to or use of your username and password and to take steps to mitigate any resultant loss or harm.

By using the Website you warrant that you are 18 (eighteen) years of age or older and of full legal capacity. If you are under the age of 18 (eighteen) or if you are not legally permitted to enter into a binding agreement, then you may use the Website only with the involvement and supervision of your parent or legal guardian.

Conclusion of sales and availability of stock

 

Registered users may place orders for Goods, which M-Scents may accept or reject. Whether or not M-Scents accepts an order depends on the availability of Goods, correctness of the information relating to the Goods (including without limitation the price) and receipt of payment or payment authorisation by M-Scents for the Goods.

NOTE: M-Scents will indicate the acceptance of your order by delivering the Goods to you or allowing you to collect them, and only at that point will an agreement of sale between you and M-Scents come into effect (the “Sale”). This is regardless of any communication from M-Scents stating that your order or payment has been confirmed. M-Scents will indicate the rejection of your order (by M-Scents itself) by canceling it and, as soon as possible thereafter, refunding you for any amount already paid.

Prior to delivery of the Goods, you may cancel an order at any time provided you do so before receiving a dispatch or delivery notice. After delivery or your collection of the Goods, you may return the Goods only in accordance with the Returns Policy.

 

Placing Goods in a shopping basket without completing the purchase cycle does not constitute an order for such Goods, and as such, Goods may be removed from the shopping basket if stock is no longer available or the price thereof might change without notice to you. You cannot hold M-Scents liable if such Goods are not available or are not available at the particular price when you complete or attempt to complete the purchase cycle at a later stage.

You acknowledge that stock of all Goods on offer is limited and that pricing may change at any time without notice to you. In the case of Goods for sale by M-Scents, M-Scents will take all reasonable efforts to monitor stock levels and ensure that when stock is no longer available, that offers thereof are discontinued on the Website. However, we cannot guarantee the availability of stock. When Goods are no longer available after you have placed an order, M-Scents will notify you and you will be entitled to a replacement of equal value already paid by you for such Goods.

 

Payment

 

Payment may be made for Goods via the following methods (depending on its availability and/or your eligibility to use such a method) –

 

Direct bank deposit or electronic funds transfer: if you pay via direct bank deposit or electronic funds transfer, payment must be made within 3 (three) days of placing your order. M-Scents will not accept your order if payment has not been received; 

 

Delivery of goods

 

Our delivery charges are subject to change at any time, without prior notice to you. You will see the applicable delivery charges in your cart when you check out.

Where it accepts your order, M-Scents will deliver the Goods to you as soon as reasonably possible, but no later than 30 (thirty) days of receipt of your payment (“Delivery Period”). We will notify you if we are unable to deliver the Goods during the Delivery Period. You may then, within 7 (seven) days of receiving such notification elect whether or not to cancel your order for the Goods.

M-Scents’ obligation to deliver a product to you is fulfilled when we deliver the product to the physical address nominated by you for delivery of the order. M-Scents is not responsible for any loss or unauthorised use of a product, after it has delivered the product to the physical address nominated by you.

 

Errors

 

We shall take all reasonable efforts to accurately reflect the description, availability, purchase price and delivery charges of Goods on the Website. However, should there be any errors of whatsoever nature on the Website (which are not due to our gross negligence), we shall not be liable for any loss, claim or expense relating to a transaction based on any error, save – in the case of any incorrect purchase price – to the extent of refunding you for any amount already paid, or otherwise as set out in the Returns Policy.
