PRICING AND PAYMENT
Prices on the HEROWN website (www.herownstore.com) will be shown in £ sterling. We may vary the prices on our site at any time and without any notice. If your order is to be delivered within the European Union, both the product price and delivery services price includes applicable VAT or sales tax payable. If your order is to be delivered outside the European Union, it may attract additional import duties and local sales taxes which you will need to pay on receipt of the shipment. Delivery charges are itemised on the order acknowledgement issued by HEROWN. Our Site contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a Product's correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Product's correct price is higher than the price stated on our Site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation. When you make a purchase for Products and delivery services as applicable from JORUM OF SCOTLAND LIMITED please make sure you do this in the currency of your bank or credit card. Please note that it is common practice for banks and credit card providers to have different selling and buying exchange rates for currency. We do not accept responsibility for charges or differing rates of currency exchange levied by a customer's bank or credit card provider. Any Products purchased prior to any markdowns or discount offered will not be refunded the difference. You may return the higher priced item in its original condition, to us for either a refund or an exchange. However, if returned for an exchange, this is subject to availability. Outlet/Sale section – All ‘was’ pricing is the original RRP. ‘Now’ pricing reflects the latest markdown price.
PAYMENT
More information about the payment methods that we accept are set out on the Site. You confirm that the credit/debit card or payment method that is being used is yours and that all details you provide to us in respect thereof including, without limitation, name and address details are complete, correct and accurate. You further confirm that the credit/debit card or payment method is valid and the inputted payment details correct. All credit/debit cardholders and any payment account holders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer or payment method provider. If the issuer of your card refuses to authorise payment, we will not accept your order and we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery and we are not obliged to inform you of the reason for the refusal. We are not responsible for any charges or other amounts applied by your card issuer or bank or payment method provider as a result of our processing of your credit/debit card payment or other method of payment in accordance with your order. If your credit/debit card or payment method is not denominated in the currency of your purchase indicated on the Site, the final price may be charged in the currency of your card or account. Such final price is calculated and charged by your card issuer or bank or payment method provider and therefore we shall not be responsible for any cost, expense, charge or other liability incurred or suffered by you as a result of your card issuer or payment method provider charging you in a currency other than the currency set out on the Site.
