If it is possible we will let you know about any changes to the price of the product, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change (for example, we may need to make an extra charge if you change the delivery address to one in a different country), and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change. Please note that we are unable to accept changes to your order once the relevant campaign period has expired.

    7.8 WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF YOU DO NOT GIVE REQUIRED INFORMATION TO US.

    We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the products to you, for example, your required size and garment colour selection. If so, this will have been stated in the description of the products on our website. We will contact you in writing to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the products late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

    1. YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT

    8.1 YOU CAN ALWAYS END YOUR CONTRACT WITH US.

    If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at (a) to (e) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:

    • (a) we have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to (see clause 6.2);
    • (b) we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
    • (c) there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control; or
    • (d) you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.

    8.3 EXERCISING YOUR RIGHT TO CHANGE YOUR MIND (CONSUMER CONTRACTS REGULATIONS 2013).

    You have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receive the goods.

You must either post the goods back to us or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. Please call customer services on +32 (0) 932 989 78 or email us at hello@fabricmerch.com for a return label or to arrange collection. If you are exercising your right to change your mind you must send off the goods within 14 days of telling us you wish to end the contract. We will donate the returned goods to any charity nominated by us at our sole discretion.

    9.3 WHEN WE WILL PAY THE COSTS OF RETURN.

    We will pay the costs of return:

    • (a) if the products are faulty or misdescribed; or
    • (b) if you are ending the contract because we have told you of an upcoming change to the product or these terms, an error in pricing or description, a delay in delivery due to events outside our control or because you have a legal right to do so as a result of something we have done wrong. In all other circumstances (including where you are exercising your right to change your mind) you must pay the costs of return.

    9.4 HOW WE WILL REFUND YOU.

    We will refund you the price you paid for the products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. We will usually do this within three working days, however please note that our payments processor may take between five and ten working days to activate the refund. Please also note that we may make deductions from the price, as described below.

    9.5 DEDUCTIONS FROM REFUNDS.

    If you are exercising your right to change your mind:

    • (a) We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
    • (b) The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within seven days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.

    9.6 WHEN YOUR REFUND WILL BE MADE.

    We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind, then if we have not offered to collect the products, your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the product back to us. For information about how to return a product to us, see clause 9.2.

    1. PRICE AND PAYMENT

    11.1 WHERE TO FIND THE PRICE FOR THE PRODUCT

    The price of the product (which includes BE VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 11.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.

    11.2 WE WILL PASS ON CHANGES IN THE RATE OF BE VAT.

    If the rate of BE 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 in Belgium takes effect. 

    11.3 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. 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, 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 unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

    11.4 WHEN YOU MUST PAY AND HOW YOU MUST PAY.

    We accept all online payment methods supported by Mollie . You must pay for the products before we dispatch them.

Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

    12.2 WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR BUSINESS LOSSES.

    We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
