3.2 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product. There are a number of reasons we might not accept your order, for example:
(a) a credit reference we have obtained for you does not meet our minimum requirements;
(b) we have identified an error in the price or description of the product;
(c) your account with us has been suspended or terminated for any reason;
(d) we reasonably believe that you are buying products from us with the intention of reselling them; o (e) we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified; or

D. OUR PRODUCTS
4.1 Products may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colors and design accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device’s display of the colors accurately reflects the color of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images. And although we have made every effort to be as accurate as possible, all sizes, weights, capacities, dimensions, and measurements indicated on our website are approximate only.
- Also, there may be a Slight difference in the design and pattern as compared to the picture shown on our website.
- While every endeavor has been made to accurately reproduce colors, there may be minor variations in the color of the actual product because of the nature of fabric dyes, weather at the time of dying, and differences in display output due to lighting and digital photography and color settings and capabilities of monitors.
- A customer must place an order keeping in mind this minor variation in color as seen on a computer screen against the actual color of the outfit received. SweatsofLondon.com firmly believes that all the customers who order online are aware that the colors seen on a monitor will be slightly different as compared to the actual outfits or accessories ordered.
- It is practically impossible for SweatsofLondon.com Designers to replicate the same colors on an outfit as seen on your monitor. A variation in the shade selected by you is considered as a normal practice as these garments have a tendency to reflect different shades of a color under different light and weather, type of camera used for photography, or type and settings on the computer monitor.
- We wish to clarify and ascertain that every customer who orders any outfit from SweatsofLondon.com is aware of this genuine problem. While ordering on the Internet, we suggest that customers should be extra careful of some of the following examples-
- (a) Some Red, maroon, and orange colors have a higher tendency to reflect a different shade than other colors. For example, even if you yourself try to photograph from a digital camera or scan a red garment, in most cases it will show either as maroon or orange on the computer monitor and vice versa. Though imaging technology has advanced, still no foolproof solution to this problem is still prevalent.
- (b) Many times green and blue shades also overlap.
- (c) Same is the case with off-white, white, and cream colors.
- (d) Sea Green color sometimes looks Aqua blue and the other way around.
- (e) On some fabrics, you can see the weaving of threads is visible in different directions which is an inherent characteristic or feature of that fabric and proof of its authenticity. These are not defects. This raw finish is the beauty of these fabrics.
4.2 Product packaging and stationery may vary. The packaging and stationery of the product may vary from that shown in images on our website.
4.3 Make sure you order the correct size. You are responsible for taking any measurements and ensuring that those measurements are correct. You can find further information on our website about sizing. However, please note we have taken every effort to provide you with a detailed and correct size chart, and from time to time certain garments will fit differently to different body shapes due to fabric and cut. It is best you measure your body shape using our size chart to determine the best size for you. Please also allow a 1-3 cm difference for comfort.

However please see section 13.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
13.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
13.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced in our catalogues and/or on our website. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may cancel your order, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any products provided to you.
13.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with Mastercard, Maestro,Visa and Visa Debit, and you must provide your credit or debit card details at the time of placing yourorder. You must pay for the products before we dispatch them.
13.5 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due datewe may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 5% a year above the Bank of England’s base rate from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
13.6 If your payment is declined by your credit card provider or your bank. Your credit card provider, your bank or our nominated debt collection company may charge you a fee. The amount of that fee is beyond our control. Where we incur any fee as a result of a declined payment, you must reimburse you for the fee we incur.
13.7 What to do if you think a payment is wrong. If you think a payment is wrong, please contact us promptly to let us know and we will not charge you interest until we have resolved the issue.
N. MULTI-BUY OFFERS
14.1 How we apply multi-buy offers. From time to time, we may issue multi-buy offers, for example, ‘buy one get one free’ or ‘buy three products and get the lowest priced product for half-price’. Multi-buy offers cannot be used on permanently-reduced products, sale products or brand concession products. If you require a refund or replacement of products that were subject to a multi-buy offer, then all products (including those that you would otherwise want to keep) must be returned to us. The free or discounted product cannot be refunded on its own for money or credit.
