10        Order Acceptance and Limitations:

Given the popularity of some items, we may at times have to restrict the quantity of a particular item ordered. We will notify you if we are unable to accommodate your order. Eyepod Eyewear Ltd may, at its own discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per order.

11        Pricing:

Prices are subject to change at any time without notice based on a combination of factors that are generally out of our control. They are dictated by market and availability conditions and/or by the manufacturers themselves and are often as likely to increase, as they are to decrease. Once you have completed your purchase, the price you pay remains unchanged regardless of whether the price on our site has since increased or decreased. Please rest assured that we are offering you, our valued customers, the best possible price we can based on our real-time cost for the merchandise at that time.

Despite our best efforts to advertise prices appropriately, some items may be advertised incorrectly due to a typographical error. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel an order for an item that was priced incorrectly, whether it has been confirmed, charged, and even shipped.

If an order is refused after it was shipped due to a pricing error, we may issue a charge to reconcile the price difference. The pricing posted on our website may not always be identical to those found on some price comparison shopping websites. Prices listed on most price comparison websites may take up to 24 hours to update and match our site.

12        Value Added Tax (VAT)

VAT at the current rate (20% as at 4^th January 2011) is included in the prices shown on the web site.

It will be shown as a separate item on your invoice.

13        Return Policy

You may return* merchandise purchased from Eyepod Eyewear Ltd for a refund or a replacement, provided that the procedures and requirements referred to in our return policy are followed.

i           Refunds:

A processing fee of 20% will apply to the value of all merchandise returned for a refund. If you are returning a product with the intention of purchasing different merchandise, the fee will still apply. This fee applies to open and unopened boxes. We will only refund the value of the merchandise returned, not the shipping charge and only product that is in a resalable condition.

ii         Exchange:

If you purchased a product from Eyepod Eyewear Ltd that you wish to exchange for an alternative, you can return the item for a refund and simply place a new order for the item you desire. We do not apply a refund credit to your new purchase.

iii        Defective items:

An item that was discovered to be defective upon receipt can be replaced with the same model only. You may also return a defective item for a refund. We will certainly replace an item that was defective prior to receipt, without any restocking fee.

iv        Damaged items:  

All Packages are inspected for damage before they ship from our warehouse. If your package has been damaged in transit, please contact us immediately. We must be informed of all shipping related claims within 10 calendar days after the date of receipt. We do not issue refunds for returns of damaged merchandise. An item that was discovered damaged upon receipt will be replaced with the same model only.

v         Return shipping costs:

Return shipping cost (the cost to send an item back to our store) is like or comparable to your cost of driving to any store for returning an item, which is not reimbursable. Therefore, we do not reimburse any return shipping cost.

If an item you received is defective, we will certainly replace the item with a new one; however we do not cover or reimburse the shipping cost for returning defective merchandise back to our store. We will ship the replacement product to you at our cost, and use every good measure to ensure that the replacement order is processed quickly.

vi          Replacement:

We will send a product replacement after the authorised return has completed our receiving/inspection process. The replacement will ship within four business days following our receipt of your return. Please allow additional processing time after Holidays. Although it is our goal to ship a replacement as quickly as possible, we do not send replacements before we receive and inspect the returned merchandise. To receive a replacement more quickly, you may place a new order for the same item (shipping not included), and we will issue a refund for the full value of the returned product (including shipping), upon completion of our return process.

vii         How to Return Merchandise:

Please contact us at 0844 456 2020
