Terms and Conditions
In these terms and conditions, “we” “us” and “our” refers to Love Letters Stationery. Your access to and use of all information on this website including purchase of our product/s is provided subject to the following terms and conditions. We reserve the right to amend this Notice at any time and your use of the website following any amendments will represent your agreement to be bound by these terms and conditions as amended. We therefore recommend that each time you access our website you read these terms and conditions.
Product Descriptions
1. We strive to ensure that our products are described as accurately as possible on our website, however we do not warrant that the description is accurate. Where we become aware of any misdescription, we reserve the right to correct any error or omission.
2. Images have been provided for illustrative purposes only and we do not guarantee that any image will reproduce in true colour nor that any given image will reflect or portray the full design or options relating to that product.
Product Orders
3. We endeavour to ensure that our product list is current however we give no undertaking as to the availability of any product advertised on our website. 4. Courier is an additional charge, calculated at time of purchase.
Production
5. Personalised items can take up to 10 days to produce. Some products do take slightly longer, and this will be stated on that particular product’s page. Orders that combine products with different delivery times will be held until all items are ready to dispatch, unless the customer specifically requests the two items to be sent separately. This will incur an additional courier fee. Non-personalised items should be sent within 5 days.
Delivery
6. The actual delivery time is determined by our courier according to distance from our shop. Cape Town deliveries will take place within 24 hours of dispatch. Other places will be between 2 and 3 days – eg. Johannesburg 2 days, Durban 3 days as all items go through Johannesburg first. Some parcels will come via post or Postnet – including oversize ones, and deliveries to areas outside of the major centres.
7. When you order from us, we require you to provide your name, address for delivery, your email address, telephone contact and credit card details. We undertake to take due care with this information; however in providing us with such information you accept that we are not liable for its misuse due to error in transmission or virus or malware.
8. Delivery of your ordered product/s will be as set out on our website. Title in the goods passes to you when we have received payment.
9. Our terms of payment are set out on the order page.
10. If you take advantage of any special promotions or discounts, the reduction is only applied to the price of the product you’ve chosen, not the delivery cost. Also, any free delivery offers will normally mean standard courier delivery only.
Cancellations, Refunds and Product Returns
11. If you are not happy with the product you receive, please contact us immediately to discuss the problem with the product and returning the product and obtaining a refund. Please don’t throw away any product before you’ve spoken to us and agreed that doing so won’t affect any refund you may be entitled to.
12. We will refund any non-personalised product that is not perfect. We unfortunately cannot refund a personalised product unless we have made an error in its production, or it is not as advertised, or it has been damaged during delivery. Please check all spelling of names when you place the order – the onus is on the customer to ensure names are spelled correctly. Obviously if we make an error we will happily remake the product for you.
13. Orders for non-personalised products can be cancelled within 1 day of order. Orders for personalised products can be cancelled within 2 days of ordering. If the product has already been sent with the courier, and the customer cancels the order, they will be responsible for returning it to Love Letters, and once received by us, the amount will be refunded.
14. Where a product has been listed at the incorrect price or with incorrect descriptive information or image due to typographical error or similar oversight, we reserve the right to cancel a transaction. Where your credit card has been charged, we will immediately refund you for the total amount debited.
Product Returns
15. We undertake to reimburse you for any product delivered to you that is faulty or is in a damaged condition. If you wish to return a faulty or damaged product, you must notify us as soon as you receive the faulty or damaged product.
16.

If undamaged goods are returned to us for exchange, we do not refund any packing and postage charges. Return of undamaged goods for exchange is entirely at your cost and risk.
