How the contract is formed between you and us

• After placing an order, we will acknowledge that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order is an offer by you to enter into a binding contract, which we are free to accept or decline at our absolute discretion.
• These terms and conditions shall become binding on you and us when we deliver the Goods to you, at which point a contract shall come into existence between us for the Goods that we have delivered (a “Contract”).
• The Contract will relate only to those Goods which we have delivered to you. We will not be obliged to supply any other Goods which may have been part of your order until we have delivered them to you.
• If you think that there is a mistake, please make sure that you ask us to confirm any changes in writing, as we only accept responsibility for statements and representations made in writing by our authorized employees and agents. Please ensure that you read and understand these terms and conditions before you accept them and submit the order, because you will be bound by the terms and conditions once a Contract comes into existence between us, in accordance with condition 3.2.
• These terms apply to a Contract to the exclusion of any other terms that you seek to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by trade, custom, practice, or course of dealing.
• Any samples, drawings, descriptions or advertising that we issue, and any descriptions or illustrations contained on our site, are issued or published solely to provide you with an approximate idea of the Goods they describe. They do not form part of the contract between you and us or any other contract between you and us for the sale of the Goods.
• We shall assign an order number to the order and inform you of it in the Order Confirmation or delivery note. Please quote the order number in all subsequent correspondence with us relating to the order.
• We have the right to revise and amend these terms and conditions from time to time. You will be subject to the policies and terms in force at the time that you order the Goods from us, unless any change to those policies or these terms and conditions is required by law or government or regulatory authority (in which case, it will apply to orders you have previously placed that we have not yet fulfilled).

  • Be of satisfactory quality;
  • Be free from material defects in design, material and workmanship; and
  • Comply with all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements for selling the Goods in the United Arab Emirates.
• This warranty does not apply to any defect in the Goods arising from fair wear and tear, willful damage, accident, negligence by you or any third party, if you use the Goods in a way that we do not recommend, your failure to follow our instructions, or any alteration or repair you carry out without our prior written approval.

• If we are not able to deliver the whole of the order at one time due to operational reasons or shortage of stock, we will deliver the order in instalments. We will not charge you extra delivery costs for this. If you ask us to deliver the order in instalments, we may charge you extra delivery costs. Each instalment shall constitute a separate contract.
