Shopping Terms & Conditions.
The following Terms and Conditions govern the use of Sandals2U’s Online Service (the Service) including shopping and participation in promotions run by Sandals2U through it’s web site www.sandals2u.co.nz (the Site) and other channels including but not limited to specific purpose web sites, showroom sales, telephone, mail and fax order.  You can access this Agreement at any time from any page of the Site.

Using this website to place an order indicates your acceptance of these Terms and Conditions.

In order to purchase products from the Site you will be asked to provide some personal details (e.g. Name, Shipping Address, Phone number, email address).  Please refer to our Privacy policy to review our policy on these matters.

Product Information.
We make every effort to ensure all information on this site is accurate and up to date.  However, in the event a product is listed at an incorrect price, or with incorrect information, Sandals2U shall have the right to refuse or cancel any order placed for product listed at the incorrect price.  Sandals2U shall have the right to refuse or cancel any such order whether or not any such order has been confirmed and your credit card charged.  If your credit card has already been charged for such purchase and your order is cancelled, Sandals2U shall refund the amount of the charge. 

Pricing.
All prices in the shopping areas are in New Zealand dollars (NZ$) and include GST (at 12.5% New Zealand sales tax for local sales and 0% for export sales).  Subject to the previous clause, all prices are correct at time of publication and the prices published on the Site at the time and date of the purchase will be the final price paid.  The time and date of purchase is the time and date we confirm your order by sending goods to you.  However we reserve the right to alter prices for any reason.

Direct Credit Orders.
All items purchased from Sandals2U on Direct Credit terms will be cancelled if payment is not received with 72 hours of the sale to release stock for other customers.

Risk of Loss.
In the case of all items purchased from Sandals2U, the risk of loss and title for such items passes to you upon our delivery to the carrier.  Sandals2U is deemed to have fulfilled its obligations to deliver the goods when they are handed to the carrier.

Delivery.
Sandals2U shall arrange an agent to deliver the goods to the address stated on the order or as agreed by Sandals2U in writing.  Sandals2U shall deliver the goods by such carrier and such form of transport Sandals2U consider to be appropriate or as selected by the customer during the sales process.  For items to be shipped overseas, the terms of delivery are FCA (Free Carrier) as defined by INCOTERMS 2000.  That is, Sandals2U delivers the goods, cleared for export, to the carrier nominated by the buyer at the named place.  Sandals2U will not be responsible for any part delivery or delay in delivery of the goods as a result of events occurring beyond Sandals2U’s control.  Sandals2U shall not be in any way responsible for any losses, damages, costs or other consequences (direct or indirect) arising from such delay or non-delivery.

The Customer agrees to inform Sandals2U within 30 days of the date of invoice if proof of shipment is required.

Guarantees.
If you are acquiring goods from us for on-sale, or otherwise for business purposes, the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 does not apply.  Nothing in these terms and conditions is intended to be inconsistent with consumers’ rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act and in the event of any inconsistency the Act overrides the relevant part of these terms and conditions.  In any case, where the Consumer Guarantees Act does apply, if any of the goods fail to comply with any guarantee in the Consumer Guarantees Act, Sandals2U will repair or replace those goods.  The Customer acknowledges that Sandals2U does not provide any Express Guarantees (as defined in that Act) other than those expressly confirmed by Sandals2U in writing;

If the Customer supplies the goods to any person, the Customer must not give or make any undertaking assertion or representation in relation to the goods without Sandals2U’s prior approval in writing, and the Customer must give the person buying the goods such product information relating to the goods as Sandals2U requires, and the Customer agrees to indemnify Sandals2U against any loss, liability or cost incurred by Sandals2U under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or otherwise as a result of any breach by the Customer of these obligations.

Return of Goods.
Sandals2U will replace any defective goods at no cost to the purchaser.  Please contact Sandals2U on 0800 SNDL2U (763 528) for detailed instructions should you require assistance.

Sandals2U will not accept the return of non-defective goods (such as where the Customer has ordered the wrong size or colour) for credit or any other purpose unless Sandals2U agrees to accept the return of the goods and advises the Customer a return advice number prior to the return of goods.  Return of goods will only be accepted for credit or exchange within 14 days of delivery, unless due to Sandals2U’s error.  Return freight will be at Sandals2U’s cost only when there has been an error on Sandals2U’s part.

No returned goods shall be accepted by Sandals2U (even if Sandals2U agree to do so) if they have been tampered with by you or any other person and are not as new, if they are goods expressly sold on a non-return basis, or if they are not accompanied by the return advice number referred to above.  Where goods are returned to Sandals2U but not accepted as above, they shall be returned to you at your expense.

Receipt by Sandals2U or by any of our agents or representatives of any goods returned other than in accordance with the above two paragraphs shall not constitute nor be deemed to constitute Sandals2U’s acceptance of the return of the goods for credit or any other purpose.

Links.
This Site may contain links to other sites on the Internet that are owned and operated by third parties.  You acknowledge that Sandals2U is not responsible for the operation of or the content on any such site.

Security.
It is natural for those new to electronic purchasing to be concerned about security of personal and credit card details.  In reality, a commerce transaction on the Internet is significantly more secure than a similar telephone transaction or handing your credit card over the counter in a store.

To ensure that your credit card or other personal details are kept secure in transit on the Internet, we use a 128-bit digital certificate to encrypt the data going to and from the web Site.  Look for the secure page entry messages that you get notified from your browser and for the web address to change to “https” (secure web page transfers).

In addition, the Sandals2U web Site is hosted behind a commercial firewall to prevent hackers from obtaining access to your data.  Even if this unlikely event does occur, we do not keep a record of your full credit card number.  Only authorised personnel from the Sandals2U Site administration and our hosting provider are allowed either physical or electronic access to the web server or databases.

Sandals2U has a strong privacy policy relating to all information that you provide through this web Site and we will take all reasonable steps to prevent any data being inappropriately released or misused.

The Customer, if an individual, has a right of access to information about the Customer held by Sandals2U.  The Customer may request correction of that information if it is believed to be incorrect.  Sandals2U may charge reasonable costs for providing access to that information.
