SALES OF GOODS

Sellers offer Goods for sale via the View Art Gallery Website. View Art Gallery is an agent for the Seller in the sale of any Goods except where otherwise stated. These Terms and Conditions and any Special Conditions will govern the Contract between the Buyer and Seller, alongside any terms and conditions applicable under any other applicable documents.

View Art Gallery's or the Seller's employees are not authorised to make any representations concerning the Goods unless confirmed by the Seller in Writing. In entering into any Contract and in accepting delivery, the Buyer acknowledges that it does not rely on representations concerning the Goods which are not confirmed in this way.

ORDERS AND SPECIFICATIONS

1. All Goods are offered for sale subject to availability and subject to View Art Gallery and the Sellers acceptance of the Order.
2. View Art Gallery and the Seller reserves the right to reject any Order without the obligation to assign any reason for so doing. No Order shall be deemed accepted by the Seller unless and until it is confirmed unconditionally by the Seller in the Order Confirmation.
3. View Art Gallery has a policy of continuous product development with the Sellers, Artists and Curators we work with and reserves the right to amend the specifications of any of the Goods without prior notice. Additionally, given the bespoke, hand crafted nature of many of the Goods sold on View Art Gallery, the exact size of Goods may alter slightly from piece to piece and from the official Goods dimensions listed on the View Art Gallery Website.
4. The Seller endeavours to display and describe as accurately as possible the printed colours of the Goods which appear on its website, but cannot undertake to give any assurance that the colours of Goods supplied will exactly match those displayed on the Buyer's monitor or home printing device.

PRICE, PAYMENT AND CURRENCIES

1. All prices are inclusive of any applicable sale taxes at the country of origin of the Goods. The Buyer shall be responsible for any other taxes (including but not limited to any custom duties) applicable in the territory to which the Goods are sent.
2. Payment must be made at the time of placing an Order which is accepted by the Seller. Payment in full will be taken at this time and the Contract will be in force.
3. The Buyer undertakes that all details provided to the Seller and View Art Gallery for the purpose of the Order and its delivery will be correct and that the chosen method of payment is the property of the Seller and that sufficient funds or credit facilities are available to cover the full cost of the Goods ordered. View Art Gallery reserves the right to obtain validation of the Buyer's credit card or debit card details before accepting the Buyers Order.
4. Any discounts or promotions are offered subject to availability and may be terminated or amended at any time by View Art Gallery. The Seller reserves the right to reject any Order based on erroneous pricing, discounts, or promotions. Unless otherwise agreed by View Art Gallery, any discounts or promotions are not cumulative, and no more than one discount or promotion shall be used on the same Order.

DELIVERY

1. The place for delivery of the Goods will be as shown on the Order and the normal method of delivery (unless specifically agreed otherwise) shall be regular postage or courier at the discretion of View Art Gallery.
2. Any dates quoted for delivery of the Goods are indicative only. Time for delivery will not be of the essence of the Contract and the Seller will not be liable for any loss or expenses sustained by the Buyer arising from any delay in the delivery of the Goods howsoever caused.
3. The Buyer must inspect the Goods on delivery and, in the case where Goods have been delivered by courier, sign the required proof of delivery document or collection acceptance document if required. A signature on that document will constitute conclusive evidence against the Buyer of receipt of the quantity of Goods indicated on that document free from any apparent defect or damage. If the Goods are alleged to be damaged or defective on delivery, a description of the alleged damage or defect must be given in writing at the time of delivery and signed by or on behalf of the Buyer.
4. If the Buyer wrongfully fails to take delivery of the Goods, the Seller shall be under no obligation to refund the Price.
5. Purchased Goods may not be returned to the Seller except as provided in Condition 11 below.
6. Rental Goods may be returned or exchanged as detailed in the Rental Agreement in addition to circumstances as provided in Condition 11 below

RISK OF DAMAGE AND TRANSFER OF GOODS

1. Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods will pass to the Buyer on delivery at the agreed address.
2. Notwithstanding delivery and the passing of risk in the Goods, property in the Goods will not pass from the Seller until the Seller has received full payment of the Price and all other sums which are due, owing or payable by the Buyer to the Seller in respect of the Contract or any other Contract between the Seller and the Buyer.

RETURNS, REFUNDS, EXCHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS

1. The buyer shall have the right to return a purchase within fourteen days of Receipt for an exchange or refund at his/her preference if the item is Defective or for any other reason provided they do the following:

3. View Art Gallery will aim to process and refund/exchange all returns within 30 days of receiving returned Goods from the Buyer in the post or via our chosen common carrier. For Goods shipped to a different country from the origin country for such Goods, View Art Gallery may offer only a partial refund subject to shipping (both outbound and return) and handling costs.
4. Buyers may request to cancel an Order within 24 hours of placing the Order by emailing contact@viewartgallery.co.uk. View Art Gallery will, at our discretion (pending shipping and whether the order has already been processed) either elect to refund the Buyer immediately, or inform the Buyer to follow the normal returns policy.
