6.1 Purchased Products will be delivered to the delivery address you specify. Delivery will normally be between one and seven days of despatch, depending upon the despatch method you choose and the delivery address. 

 

6.2 We will only despatch when all items of the order have become available in stock, including any non-stock item which has to be ordered in, and therefore the delivery time will depend on when the last item comes into stock. We will in any event deliver your Products without undue delay and not more than 30 days after the day on which we accept your order, unless we agree a longer period with you or inform you of a longer despatch period on the Site before you place your order. If an item is not available within that period you may cancel that item (or, if you prefer, the whole order) and we will refund you in full for whatever you have cancelled.

 

6.3  Products comprised within the same order cannot be delivered to different addresses. Orders cannot always be delivered to PO Box or similar addresses.

 

6.4  Deliveries are made by courier and take place on Monday to Friday, excluding bank and public holidays, usually within the hours of 8am and 6pm. Please note that the courier may require deliveries to be signed for. We are not responsible for any delay in delivery caused by the unavailability of someone to take personal delivery of an order that needs to be signed for. It is your responsibility to contact the post office or relevant courier company as applicable to arrange the collection or delivery of Products that could not be delivered because you were not in.

 

6.5  Products ordered will be at your risk from the time of delivery. Ownership of purchased Products will also pass to you on delivery, provided we have received full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.

We will normally verify prices as part of our order processing procedures so that, where a Product's correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge you the lower amount. If a Product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on the Site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.

Online payment transactions are also subject to validation checks by your card issuer and we are not responsible if your card issuer declines to authorise payment for any reason. Please note, it is possible that your card issuer may charge you an online handling fee or processing fee. We are not responsible for this.

(b) To exercise the right to withdraw you must follow the same instructions as detailed in the Cancellation and Refund above and the same terms of the returns policy will apply, subject to and with the following changes:

(i) Informing about your decision to withdraw from the Order must be done within 14 days as of the day of delivery of the Product to you or to somebody named by you.

(ii) You should inform us of your intent to withdraw through via the cancellation functionality in My Account, by contacting Customer Services or by using the withdrawal/cancellation form available here[LINK] .

 

(iii) You must return the product in the condition mentioned in the return policy above, except you may use the product only for such use that is necessary to assess the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Product, as you would have used in a physical store. Deduction could be made from the reimbursement for loss in value of any item supplied, if the loss is the result of your handling beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the item.

(iv) Initial Delivery Costs you paid in connection with the Order will be reimbursable or refundable (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

15.       Provisions relating to menswear, womenswear and legalwear orders for delivery outside of UK and Channel Islands

 

MERCHANT OF RECORD

15.1 We have an agreement with Global-e, a sales facilitation and e-commerce partner of E&R, under which E&R sells the Products covered by this section to Global-e and Global-e sells them on to you as principal and as merchant of record, in its own name. Where used in these Supply Terms, “Global-e” means the applicable Global-e Contracting Party, as defined below.

15.2 Where Global-e is the merchant of record, your contract for the purchase of the Products is with Global-e and is governed by Global-e’s terms of sale, which you accept at checkout. Global-e’s terms of sale provide that our returns policy applies to your order.

15.3 Where our cancellation, returns and refunds policy in sections 8 and 9 is more favourable to you than Global-e’s terms of sale, our policy applies. Otherwise, if there is any conflict between these Supply Terms and Global-e’s terms of sale in relation to your contract of sale, Global-e’s terms prevail. Nothing in the terms affects any right you have under the law of the country in which you live that cannot be departed from by agreement.

15.4 Please contact us, not Global-e, with any question or complaint about your order, delivery, a return or a refund. We will deal with it and, where a refund is due, arrange for Global-e to pay it to you using your original payment method.

15.5 The Global-e Contracting Party under these Supply Terms is Globale U.K. Limited (company number 08632376), whose registered address is 154 Clerkenwell Rd, London EC1R 5AB, UK, or such other Global-e affiliated entity as is listed on your invoice. For further details and contact information of Global-e Contracting Party and about Global-e affiliates please click          here.

15.6  By placing your order, you agree (i) to make your purchase from Global-e as merchant of record subject to Global-e's Terms & Conditions; (ii) that your information will be handled by Global-e in accordance with the Global-e        Privacy Policy; and (iii) that your information (excluding the payment details) will be shared between Global-e and E&R.

15.7 You acknowledge and agree that: (i) Global-e will use one of its third party payment processors ("Payment Processor") to process your payment (while Global-e is acting as the merchant of record), using the payment method you have selected on checkout and Global-e may use the tools, technology or the services of the Payment Processors to process the transaction on its behalf; and (ii) you will provide valid and current information about yourself for this purpose.

DUTIES AND TAXES

15.8 Depending on where you are based, you may be able to pre-pay duties and taxes on your order on checkout. Please note, not all products and not all destinations support pre-payment of duties and taxes, and we cannot guarantee that your order will be eligible for such pre-payment. The Site or checkout will provide details, and itemize or indicate if the price paid is inclusive or exclusive of Duties and Taxes before you complete and place the order. Where duties and taxes are paid by you at checkout, they are not refundable to you if you later return the Products, unless they were included in the price of the Products.

15.9  If duties and taxes were not paid when you placed your order, either because you so elected or because pre-payment of duties and taxes is not available in the delivery destination (or for any other reason): (a) you are advised that the amount of duties and taxes displayed under the pre-payment option on the checkout is only an estimation and may not reflect the amount of duties and taxes actually charged to you by the broker, carrier or the relevant authority, and that such amount might be higher than the estimation; and (b) you will be fully responsible for paying all applicable duties and taxes directly to the relevant authority as determined and assessed by such authorities. Global-e and E&R will have no responsibility or liability where you are responsible for paying duties and taxes and have failed to do so. Moreover, if you fail to pay any duties and taxes without a reasonable justification for failing to do so, such duties and taxes may be deducted from any refund issued to you by Global-e.

15.10 Global-e may contract with customs brokers or use fiscal representatives to act on its or your behalf for the purposes of clearing the order into the relevant destination. Global-e may also act as, or use its affiliates as, a ‘customs declarant’ to clear the order into the destination in Global-e’s name on your behalf. Your agreement to these Supply Terms constitutes a consent and authorization for such customs brokers, fiscal representatives or affiliates to act on your behalf (as an agent, declarant or as otherwise applicable) to: (a) transact with the applicable authorities; (b) complete, submit and execute related documents on your behalf in connection with the import and clearance of Products; (c) facilitate payment of duties and taxes and customs clearance; and (d) if applicable, return such Products (subject to these Supply Terms).

15.11 Unless explicitly stated otherwise, you (and not Global-e, E&R or anyone acting on Global-e or E&R’s behalf) will be fully responsible for claiming back any duties and taxes from the applicable authority (regardless of the process of payment used), where you have returned Products or are otherwise eligible for a rebate of duties and taxes. Neither Global-e nor E&R will have any responsibility or liability in connection with such duties and taxes rebate claim.

15.12 If you elected not to pre-pay duties and taxes, or failed to pay duties and taxes, or refused to accept a Product (where such refusal is not permitted under these Supply Terms), in each case resulting with the Product being returned or needing to be returned, then, in addition to the above, you may be liable for the applicable return costs and charges, and any additional direct or indirect charges resulting from such failure or refusal.

 TITLE; RISK; IMPORTER OF RECORD

15.14  The title to the Products you order via the Site is transferred from Global-e to you prior to import, provided Global-e is satisfied that full payment for the order amount has been or can be made.

15.15 Risk of damage or loss is transferred to you upon delivery to the delivery address specified in the order (in case you have selected not to pre-pay duties and taxes, such location will be deemed to be the port of entrance to the import destination).

15.16 YOU WILL BE CONSIDERED AS THE ‘IMPORTER OF RECORD’ OF THE PRODUCT, AND GLOBAL-E (OR SOMEONE ON ITS BEHALF) WILL ONLY BE FACILITATING THE IMPORTATION ON YOUR BEHALF, AS YOUR AGENT, AND MAY, IN CERTAIN CASES, ACT AS THE ‘DECLARANT’ FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF FACILITATING THE CUSTOMS CLEARANCE (HOWEVER THIS WILL NOT CHANGE YOUR STATUS AS THE IMPORTER FOR PERSONAL USE PURPOSES).

15.17  YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT THE PRODUCT CAN BE LAWFULLY IMPORTED INTO THE DESTINATION, AND YOU THEREFORE NEED TO COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS, REGULATIONS, CERTIFICATIONS AND RULES OF THE DESTINATION INTO WHICH YOU IMPORT THE PRODUCT.

15.18  Please note that: documentation such as packaging,  product care labels, handling instructions or safety warnings may not be in your language; the Product (and accompanying materials) may not be designed, or labelled, in accordance with the requirements, standards, product regulations or specifications in the destination to which you import the Product; and any text on the Product may not be in yours or the import destination’s language. Product ordered to a destination with different standards cannot be returned for this reason and no liability will be assumed by E&R or Global-e in any circumstances which may arise from your purchasing of Product without the correct standards for your destination.

Fulfilment, Handling and Delivery of Orders

15.19 The delivery and fulfilment of your Order is carried out by various delivery partners. These are selected and operated by Global-e or by E&R (a "Delivery Partner").

15.20 Unless otherwise stated, and subject to applicable laws, delivery dates given on checkout (or on the Site) are estimates only. Delivery timeframes depend on your delivery address and your chosen delivery method. Neither Global-e nor E&R is able to specify an exact delivery date and time.  Where no delivery date is specified, your Order should be delivered within 30 days of the date of the Order Confirmation. Neither Global-e nor E&R accepts any liability for any loss arising from a delay in delivery which is outside its reasonable control.

15.21 Delivery will be completed when the Product is delivered to the address chosen by you as specified when placing your Order (where duties and taxes have not been paid in advance, that may include the port of entrance to the country destination).

15.22  If you receive notification of a failed delivery attempt, it is your responsibility to use the details provided by the Delivery Partner for re-delivery. Efforts will be made to deliver your Product according to the details specified in your order.

15.23 E&R and Global-e reserves the right, at any time, to suspend or cancel the delivery of any Product that cannot be legally delivered to you. If delivery is cancelled for this reason, you will be refunded in full for that Product.

15.24 In certain circumstances, the Delivery Partner may offer alternative delivery options, including providing the following options: signature release – opting out of the requirement to provide a signature on delivery (where such option is offered as part of the chosen delivery service); and/or leave with neighbour – redirecting the delivery to a neighbour (“On Demand Delivery Service”). If you choose one of these options, the Products will be at your risk from the time they are delivered in accordance with the option you have chosen.

Special Provisions – Payments

15.25  Depending on your location, payment may be made to an intra-group affiliate of Global-e [(listed            <<<here>>>)], and such payment will constitute a payment to Global-e and will discharge you from your payment obligations in connection with the order and purchase of the underlying Products.

15.26 Global-e may not be able to control additional charges, fees (such as foreign transaction fees or cross border fees) or surcharges imposed by your own bank, card issuer or your chosen payment method. Global-e may not have any knowledge in advance of the applicability of such fees or surcharges nor does Global-e have any way to mitigate these fees or surcharges, as their applicability will depend on your bank, card issuer or payment method and their own policies. Global-e’s sole commitment in this respect is to acquire the amount specified on checkout in your selected currency.

15.27 The transaction statement (of your chosen payment method) regarding the order you placed via the Site will look substantially like this: **Global-e//Ede & Ravenscroft**.

15.28 If you have any questions or complaints about Global-e, please contact Global-e at service@Global-e.com or at its applicable trading address of the applicable Global-e Contracting Party. If you have any questions relating to E&R, these Supply Terms, the Site, your order or the Products, or anything else, please contact                       info@edeandravenscroft.com .

 

Additional Provisions for Specific Destinations

15.29 Consumers in some countries have additional rights under their own law, and in some countries may refer a dispute to a local alternative dispute resolution body. Those rights are not affected by these Supply Terms. Global-e's terms of sale, which govern your contract of sale and which you accept at checkout, set out the position for your country.
