TERMS OF SALE
Your order is subject to Chilewich’s Terms of Sale in effect at the time your order is placed. Chilewich may modify these Terms of Sale without prior notice.
Payment Terms - Payment terms are printed on the face of your order confirmation and are subject to change before shipment.
Shipping - Orders will be shipped FOB (EXWORKS) Chatsworth, Georgia, USA.
Note to our international customers on uncollected (idle) shipments: Any order prepared for shipping, whose ship date has been confirmed by the customer, but which remains uncollected (idle) at the Chilewich warehouse in Chatsworth, Georgia for longer than 5 business days, shall incur a daily storage fee of 2% of the total value of goods, charged on the invoice, for as long as the order remains idle.
Returns Policy – Chilewich will only accept returns that have been authorized by the Chilewich Sales Department. Once a return has been authorized, you will be issued a Return Authorization for the return. A request for a return must be made to the Chilewich Sales Department no later than four (4) weeks after the goods were shipped, as stated on the Purchase Order. If a Return Authorization is issued by Chilewich, the goods covered by that Return Authorization must be delivered to Chilewich within four (4) weeks of the Return Authorization issue date or they will not be accepted. A fifteen percent (15%) restocking charge will apply, plus return freight.
PLEASE NOTE: All custom order sales are final; no returns or exchanges will be made.
Claims - Please inspect your shipment upon receipt for shipping damage and for correct style, color, size and quantity. Shipping damage claims must be made within seven (7) days of receipt. Defective product claims must be made within thirty (30) days from the invoice date. The restocking and freight charges will not apply to defective products, as determined solely by Chilewich.
Revisions to Orders - Any revision to an order must be sent to Chilewich within twenty-four (24) hours of submission of the original order. Thereafter, the order will be automatically released for processing and not available for revision. Any additions made to a Purchase Order on the days following the order will be processed as a new order. It is Chilewich’s policy not to cancel or add items to a shipment once the order is packed; however, if changes to an order that has already been packed for shipment are unavoidable and can be made by Chilewich, in its sole discretion, a fifteen percent (15%) re-stocking fee will be applied to your account.
Cancellation - You may cancel your order within twenty-four (24) hours from receipt of your order confirmation. After that, any request to cancel your order is at Chilewich’s sole discretion. Chilewich reserves the right to cancel your order at any time for any reason. In the event that Chilewich cancels your order after you have made payment, payment will be refunded via the original payment method.
