Please note that in the case of limited edition or limited production Products extra restrictions such as a limit to the number of such Products per order may apply

2.3 HOW AND WHEN IS A CONTRACT CONCLUDED WITH YOU?

All information on the Website is an invitation to treat only and the information is not an offer or binding contract. You agree that your order is an offer to purchase the Products listed in your order.

MD Vital Support is entitled to verify an order in advance at all times and/or to refuse to accept an order without providing reasons and with no liability to you or any third parties. If MD Vital Support does not confirm acceptance of your order within ten working days, it is deemed to have been refused.

All orders submitted by you are subject to acceptance by MD Vital Support. We may choose not to accept your order at our own discretion. Examples of when we may not accept your order are as follows:

_ If Products are shown on the Website but are not available;

_ If we are unable to obtain authorization of your payment;

_ If Products shown on the Website contain a manifest error such as being incorrectly priced or otherwise incorrectly described.

After your order has been placed, we will send you an order acknowledgement email with your order number and details of the Products you have offered to purchase and details of any delivery services.

2.4 RETENTION OF TITLE

All Products will remain the property of MD Vital Support until you have paid all amounts owing to us in full under any agreement, including the payment of costs, earlier or later deliveries or partial deliveries. You may not sell, dispose of or encumber any Product before full title thereof has passed to you.

2.5 QUALITY AND MAINTENANCE OF PRODUCTS

Minor differences in colour and other variations in Products are possible as a result of different image acquisition, display technologies or other technical reasons. MD Vital Support is not liable for these variations and deviations.

MD Vital Support draws your attention to the washing and maintenance instructions printed on the labels of the Products. MD Vital Support is not liable for any damage resulting from incorrect handling of Products, including handling contrary to the instructions.

2.6 CANCELLING YOUR ORDER

You may cancel your order before the goods are dispatched via courier by contacting our Customer Service Team.

2.7 PRICE

The stated prices include VAT and are quoted in South African Rand.

MD Vital Support reserves the right to change, limit or terminate any special offers or discounts at any time.

MD Vital Support charges delivery costs and is defined under the Delivery section on our Website. These costs will, if applicable, be charged separately, itemized and added up with the total amount of the order.

2.8 METHODS OF PAYMENT

Please check the Website for information on available payment methods.

2.9 INVOICING

Where we elect, or are required by applicable law, to issue or make available an invoice, MD Vital Support reserves the right to issue or make available electronic invoices and you agree to such form of invoicing.

2.10 DELIVERY

MD Vital Support will deliver during business hours to the address indicated by you within South Africa. MD Vital Support can only deliver to a home or office address. For detailed information about delivery periods, please check the specifications for the different types of delivery such as “3 hour delivery”, “Next Day”, “2 Day Express” and “Standard” by clicking here in the ‘Delivery‘ section of our Website.

Note that Delivery periods are indicative and are therefore not regarded as strict deadlines. The mere fact that a delivery period is exceeded does not entitle you to compensation.

MD Vital Support is entitled, insofar as reasonably possible, to make split deliveries so that you receive your Products as soon as possible. There are no additional costs associated with such split deliveries. However, in the event that you request that MD Vital Support delivers in parts, MD Vital Support may charge you for extra delivery costs. Each split order shall constitute a separate sales contract. If MD Vital Support is late delivering a part or one split order is faulty, that will not entitle you to cancel any other split order.

If MD Vital Support discovers prior to entering into the sales contract that it can no longer deliver the Products ordered, MD Vital Support may offer you an equivalent product in terms of quality, price and function. You are not obliged to accept the replacement Product. You may return it, if you so wish, within 14 days at MD Vital Support’ reasonable expense (your right of return remains unaffected).

In the unlikely event that, after entering into the sales contract, MD Vital Support can no longer deliver your Products and is not responsible for this situation, MD Vital Support will be entitled to terminate the sales contract. MD Vital Support will, of course, inform you as soon as reasonably practicable and reimburse any payments made.

2.11 RETURNS OF PRODUCTS

If you are not fully satisfied with your Products, you have the right to withdraw from the sales contract. In other words, you have the right to return the Products as indicated below, and we will ensure that you obtain a refund. Simply follow the guidelines explained in the returns section on the website. If you have any questions regarding merchandise returns purchased from the Website please contact us.

Subject to the provisions of these Purchase Terms, you may return the Products received without specifying any reasons within 14 calendar days from the day you receive the Product. If the return falls outside of this period, or the item is worn beyond normal use, damaged or not in its original packaging, MD Vital Support cannot accept the returned items and cannot give a refund. Returns can only be accepted if the original label or hang tag has not been removed and the product is in its original packaging. The return of Products is at MD Vital Support’ risk and reasonable expense where such return is made in accordance with this section. Returns not made in accordance with this section shall be at your risk and expense.

In the event of a valid return in accordance with these Purchase Terms, MD Vital Support will reimburse the purchase price and the delivery costs (in case of completely returned orders) received from you, within thirty days after receipt by MD Vital Support of a notification that you wish to exercise your right of return. This is provided however that MD Vital Support only becomes obliged to reimburse you after we have taken physical receipt of the returned Products.

The length of time your return is in transit is beyond our control; although once we do receive your return we will process it as quickly as reasonably possible. We therefore need to allow at least fourteen days to receive and to process your return. Although MD Vital Support will refund the money within approximately 30 days after processing your return, your bank or credit card company may require additional time to process your refund and for it to reach your account. We’ll notify you via e-mail once we’ve received and processed the returned Product(s). We’ll refund the value of the Product(s) total. Refunds will be given in the same form of payment as the original purchase, unless specified otherwise by you.

If a Product is returned and MD Vital Support believes that it has been damaged because of an act or omission for which you are to blame, or which is otherwise for your expense and risk, MD Vital Support will be entitled to deduct the decrease in value of the returned Product as a result of this damage from the amount to be repaid to you.

2.12 EXCHANGE POLICY

MD Vital Support does not exchange Products. If you wish to exchange a Product, you will need to return your purchase for refund and place a new order. It is only possible to get a refund on returns when the return is in line with our return policy.

2.13 DAMAGED OR DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS

or MD Vital Support, quality is paramount. We thoroughly test all our Products in real-life conditions to ensure they are fully capable of standing up to the uses for which they were designed. It is extremely rare for our Products to be damaged or defective. MD Vital Support has a legal obligation to make sure that our Products conform to the sales contract.

Returned Products are inspected by the MD Vital Support Quality Assurance Department and refunded if the damage is the result of a manufacturing defect or deviation from factory specifications. We undertake to fully refund the cost of any defective Products.

If the problem was caused by reasons other than materials quality or assembly process, the original product is returned to you. We do not refund Products:

_ Obtained from a source other than the Website

_ Damaged by abuse or negligence (exposure to chemicals, caustic substances, open flame, high heat, sharp object, etc.)

_ Damaged by misuse or activities other than the intended purpose (use of running shoes for court sports or hiking footwear as work boots, etc.)

Our Products damaged by normal wear and tear or that have exceeded the reasonable lifespan of the Product are not replaced.
