PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS 

SALTY KIT does not offer Sale of Return.

The Buyer is responsible for all taxes, customs and import charges. SALTY KIT  will not be liable for any additional charges incurred on your order unless previously agreed in writing.

PAYMENTS

All Buyers are required to pay pro-forma by debit/credit card or bank transfer (unless prior arrangement has been agreed with the Seller). We do not accept payment by Cheque unless previously agreed by the Seller.

If payment has not been made at the time of dispatching the goods, the order will be placed on hold. The order will be on hold for 14 days before being cancelled at the discretion of the Seller.

Invoices are required to be settled in the currency as stated on the invoice along with any additional terms. SALTY KIT will not be held liable for any currency conversion or charges incurred to the Buyer.

SHIPPING & COLLECTION

Shipping will be calculated as standard depending on your shipping location.  The Seller does not provide carriage paid unless previously agreed in writing. We work with various delivery partners and endeavour to deliver within the quoted time frame as stated on the invoice.

The buyer must provide the seller with any delivery or compliance instructions at the time of placing the order. Failure to do so may delay the order and ability to meet delivery dates as quoted.

Please note our Insurance only covers us for delivery to your door and does not extend to moving items inside your property. Therefore, the Seller is not liable for any damages caused by drivers carrying stock into the Buyer’s premises. Drivers must remain with their vehicle and must not leave the vehicle unattended.

In the event that the buyer fails to unload the goods within 1 hour of their arrival at the Buyers premises or such other destinations as notified to the seller at the time of placing the order, the buyer shall be liable to the seller for the additional costs incurred by the seller. The seller shall not be liable to the buyer for any damage or loss arising directly or indirectly from any delay in delivery.

The seller will not deliver to the buyer at a private/residential address unless in exceptional circumstances where the access is good and/or to do so is beneficial to the seller.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, any delivery times specified by the Seller in its quotation or otherwise, are business estimates only and the Seller will not be liable to the Buyer for any loss or damage (whether direct, indirect or consequential) sustained by the Buyer as a result of the Seller's failure to comply with such delivery times.

The Seller shall have the right to cancel or to reduce the volume of goods delivered if they are prevented from or hindered in delivery of the goods through any circumstances beyond their control including (but not limited to) industrial action, war, fire or prohibition or enactment of any kind, without incurring any liability for any loss or damage.

The Buyer may use their own shipping account and details should be emailed to sales@saltykit.com at the time of placing the order. SALTY KIT will not be held liable for any taxes, customs or import charges incurred.

RETURNS, DAMAGES/DISCREPANCIES

The Buyer must inspect the condition of the goods immediately upon receipt and report in writing, within 7 days (including Saturday and Sunday) from such inspection, via email, to the seller of any damaged or discrepancies of goods. If the buyer fails to give such notice the condition of the said goods shall be deemed to be in all respects in accordance with the contract and the buyer shall be bound to accept and pay for the same accordingly. Please ensure the persons unwrapping the items are very careful to keep the packaging intact. This is essential in preventing the items being damaged on return. Under no circumstances can we accept returns that do not have their original packaging.

The Seller is unable to accept returns for items that have not been ordered and delivered by SALTY KIT. The Seller will not be held responsible for any damages incurred via a third-party carrier/couriers including own transport. The Seller will not accept items returned for credit (except for manufacturing faults) when the buyer has used a third-party carrier to collect or deliver goods from an alternative delivery address to the original delivery. It is recommended that the Buyer ensures any transport companies, collecting or delivering on the Buyer’s behalf, have the necessary insurance in place.

Goods are not accepted by the Seller for return from the Buyer without the prior consent of the seller.

All returned goods are subjected to a full Quality Control inspection before any decision regarding refund is made. SALTY KIT has the final say on whether an item is defective or not. 

CANCELLATIONS

All orders must be cancelled in writing via email. Orders can only be cancelled prior to despatch. Once the items have left SALTY KIT the full delivery and return costs will be incurred.

The Seller will provide photographic & marketing material for use by the buyer to help promote and sell SALTY KIT products only. All material owned and licenced by SALTY KIT must be credited.
