ORDERS

All orders are subject to acceptance and availability, and Items in your shopping cart are not reserved and may be purchased by other customers.


EQ Wear offers products for sale that are in stock and available for dispatch from our distribution center. Occasionally however, we may be waiting for shipments from our leather, textile, designer and manufacturer suppliers. Consequently you may, from time to time, be given the possibility of making an advance payment for certain items in which case you are able to make an advance purchase. This will ensure that you receive this item in priority once the stock has been delivered to EQ Wear. EQ Wear will only take advance purchase orders for stock that has been scheduled for delivery by a supplier. Your rights regarding advance purchase are the same as those for any other purchase at EQ Wear. Alternatively, you may simply choose to register your email address for notification of arrival of the selected merchandise not held in stock.


Items received into stock may be pre-allocated to satisfy advance payment orders and customers making advance payments will receive items in priority to customers on the Waiting List or customers ordering through the Site for immediate delivery. Please be aware that we may be unable to deliver selected advance payment merchandise due to supply and or production problems or quality check issues identified when we receive an order into stock. In these circumstances we will notify you by email and refund the advance payment to your credit/debit card within thirty days of being advised that merchandise has become unavailable.


On occasion, EQ Wear may offer made to order items. These orders will require advance, non-refundable payment.

If you have registered your email address for notification of the arrival of a specific product featured on our Site, we will attempt to notify you by email within 48 hours of the product becoming available on the Site. Please note that on occasion certain products that are in particularly high demand will sell out during this period.


EQ Wear will store a record of your transactions for a minimum of one year.

PRICING POLICY

Prices shown on the Site are in US Dollars and are exclusive of taxes. If you are shipping within the USA, sales tax will only be charged on orders shipped to Oklahoma and to the extent otherwise required by law. No other tax or import duty will be applied to orders shipped within the USA.


All prices and offers remain valid as advertised from time to time. The US Dollar price of a product displayed on the Site at the time the order is accepted will be honored, except in cases of patent error. 


Product prices are set at the beginning of each season using existing currency exchange rates. These prices are subject to change if the applicable currency exchange rate changes before your order is accepted or the items are subject to markdowns at any time during selling period.


Customers purchasing from a country served as DDP will incur relevant import duty and tax. These costs are included in the final purchase price. Customers purchasing from a country served as DDU will be charged for the items purchased and shipping costs only. Import duty or tax costs will be invoiced to you directly from DHL or an import broker appointed by you. We recommend you contact your local customs authority to determine a landed cost price prior to purchase completion.


If you are a customer whose credit/debit card is not denominated in US Dollars, the final price will be calculated in accordance with the applicable exchange rate on the day your card issuer processes the transaction.

ACCEPTANCE OF YOUR ORDER


Once you have made your choice and your order has been placed, you will receive an email acknowledging the details of your order. This email is NOT an acceptance of your order, just a confirmation that we have received it.


Unless you cancel your order, acceptance of your order will be perfected upon completion of the packing of your order. Completion of the contract between you and EQ Wear will be perfected when we dispatch the goods to you at which time you will receive a second email containing your tracking number and confirming that your order has been dispatched. The sale contract is therefore concluded in the State of Oklahoma, USA, and the language of the contract is English. 
We reserve the right not to accept your order in the event, for example, that we are unable to obtain authorization for payment, that shipping restrictions apply to a particular item, that the item ordered is out of stock or does not satisfy our quality control standards and is withdrawn, or that you do not meet the eligibility criteria set-out within the TOS.


Furthermore, we may refuse to process a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of our withdrawing any merchandise from the Site whether or not that merchandise has been sold, removing, screening or editing any materials or content on the Site, refusing to process a transaction or unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

PAYMENT


Payment can be made by Visa, MasterCard credit and debit cards, and any other methods which may be clearly advertised on the site from time to time. Payment will be debited and cleared from your account upon completion of the packing of your order by EQ Wear unless it is a made to order item when payment will be collected at the time the order is placed. You confirm that the credit/debit card that is being used is yours or that you have been specifically authorized by the owner of the credit/debit card to use it. All credit/debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorization by the card issuer.


If the issuer of your credit/debit card refuses to authorize payment to EQ Wear, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery. Occasionally, high demand causes us to run out of certain items. If we don't have an item that you have ordered in stock, we'll notify you by email immediately. Sometimes, an item is out of stock and not expected to come back in stock, so we must cancel the item. In this case, if you paid with a credit/debit card, we will not charge you for the item or any taxes, shipping or handling charges.


We take reasonable care to make our Site secure. If you are a registered EQ Wear user, we will securely store your credit/debit card details on our systems. These details will be fully encrypted and only used to process card transactions that you have initiated.
 To help ensure that your shopping experience is safe, simple and secure EQ Wear uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.


Furthermore, we take reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order and payment secure, but Iwe cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorized access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the Site.
