PART [B] TERMS OF SALE

Ordering a product

We are an intermediary between the Sellers and the Users. By placing an order for a product with a Seller, you make an offer to the Seller to purchase that product. Therefore the products advertised on this Site are invitations for you to make offers to the Sellers to purchase those products; they do not constitute offers to sell by us or the Sellers.

We are not a manufacturer or supplier of goods. We therefore do not keep goods that are advertised on this Site in stock. The services we provide are limited to those Services defined in Part A above. When you purchase a product by using this Site, our responsibility is to place your order with the Seller and process your payment. We are not otherwise involved in the sale or purchase of products listed on this Site.

Once you place your order, you will receive a confirmation email from us of your order. It is at this point that the total price of your order (including purchase price of the products and any tax on the purchase price as well as delivery costs) will be charged to your credit or debit card. However, your offer to purchase a product will be deemed to be accepted by the Seller only if and when your product is dispatched by the Seller. It is at this point that the sales agreement between you and the Seller becomes binding. In the case of cash on delivery items, this means that you are contractually bound to accept and pay for goods when they are delivered to you.

For the avoidance of doubt, we are not a party to the sales agreement between you and the Seller, nor do we assume any responsibility arising out of or in connection with it. We are not the Seller's agent. It is solely the Seller who is responsible for the sale of the products and for dealing with any User claims.

If for any reason, your order or part of your order cannot be dispatched to you, this will mean that the sales agreement between you and the Seller did not become binding and the price of your order (or the undispatched part of your order) will be refunded to you. Please refer to our General Return Policy for more details.

It is your responsibility to keep track of the status of your order.

Displayed prices and currency

Prices, offers, promotions and discounts are displayed in UAE Dirhams along with each product. We will not cancel your order even if the prices displayed along with the product are incorrect. This means that you will benefit from incorrectly displayed prices that are cheaper than the actual price of the product. This however also means that you will be bound by the price you accept to pay in relation to the products whose displayed prices are more expensive than their actual price. It is your responsibility to be satisfied with the product prices offered by Sellers on this Site.

Prices displayed in this Site are the final product prices, which means that (unless otherwise stated in the Product Specification) the displayed product price will be inclusive of any tax, charge or fee that may be levied on it, except for the delivery fees and customs duties, which are payable at the time of delivery and may vary depending on the delivery option selected by the User and your delivery address. If you do not pay such amounts, delivery may be withheld and the goods returned to the Seller. Users using foreign credit or debit cards should also be aware that in some cases the banks may charge their customers for international transactions. We are not responsible for any such charges levied by the banks.

Customers using foreign credit or debit cards should note that the amount charged on their credit or debit card will be the value of the product displayed in UAE Dirhams which is converted into the currency of the credit card or debit card at the prevailing conversion rate by the banks.

In the case of refunds, the amount of the refund will be converted to currency of the credit card at the prevailing conversion rate at the date the refund is processed by us. The difference, if any, in the amount initially charged and the amount of the refund is due to the fluctuation of the conversion rate and any associated bank fees.
