3. Offer and order

If an offer has a limited validity or is subject to certain conditions, this will be expressly mentioned in our offer.

  1. Product availability: the products on sale are those that appear on the website on the precise day and at the precise time of the buyer’s visit to the website. We shall make every effort to satisfy your orders. We shall not be liable under any circumstances for loss or damage arising from the unavailability of a product. If a product that is the object of a confirmed order is unavailable, you will be notified of the full or partial cancellation of your order by e-mail. If you are notified of the unavailability and the amount has already been debited from your bank account, this will be refunded as soon as possible after the cancellation date of your order.
  2. We will always provide a description of our products and the order procedure in good faith. We are not liable for errors that may occur in the descriptions of the products or the order procedure. We shall, wherever possible, correct any errors that are brought to our attention in writing, as quickly as possible. If the delivered product does not meet your expectations, you can return it, following the procedures described in CLAUSE 9.
  3. To buy a product, you need to put the product of choice into your shopping basket. You can complete your order as directed, via the shopping basket. Your purchase is finalised once you receive an order confirmation.
4. Price
  1. We reserve the right to amend our prices at any time. In any case, such changes will not affect your order. The products will be invoiced based on the price applicable at the time of your order.
  2. The prices on our website are quoted in euro and, unless otherwise stated, include VAT, administration costs and all other services. They do not include transport and shipping, which are quoted separately during the completion of your purchase. These are also itemised in CLAUSE 6.2.
5. Payment
  1. Payment can only be made on the website using the payment methods shown as available. These are visible during the completion of your purchase.
  2. If you are paying with a credit or debit card, your order is only complete – and the contract between us final – once we have received confirmation from the card issuer. We cannot be held liable for delivery delays and/or for the non-delivery or your order as the result of the refusal from your card issuer to effect payment. Orders not accompanied by a valid payment in the name of the cardholder will not be accepted or processed.
  3. To guarantee the safety of your online payment and your personal data, The Cookware Company takes appropriate technical and organizational measures to secure the electronic transfer of data and provides a secure web environment. If the consumer pays electronically, The Cookware Company shall observe appropriate security measures to that end.

All products will be delivered to the address that you gave when you placed your order online, according to the procedures set out therein.

The order confirmation will give the details of the delivery charges and VAT. Delivery will be accompanied by a delivery note that lists the products ordered.
  5. Your order will be presented to you or any other person present at the delivery address you give. We are not liable for loss or damage of any kind that might result from the receipt of your order by anyone else at the delivery address. If nobody can take delivery of your order on the delivery date, the courier will leave a message for you. This document gives the postal address where you can collect your products, and/or a telephone number so that you can agree a delivery date with the carrier. Your products will be available for collection for 14 days after the delivery date. After this date you will no longer be able to collect the products and we reserve the right to destroy or resell them. No refunds will be issued in this instance under any circumstances.
