description and suitability of goods

Velce attempts to provide information that is as accurate as possible, however, Velce does not warrant that information provided, including images or other content used on this website is accurate, complete, reliable, current or free of error.

It is your responsibility as purchaser to ensure that any Goods purchased from Velce are suitable for their contemplated function, and are used in accordance with any Instruction Booklet provided by Velce.

Despite best efforts to produce Goods that are consistent with their description, by virtue of the fact that these Goods are bespoke, handmade and often crafted from natural materials, some degree of variation to the appearance of the item supplied (such as colour) compared to the pictured Goods may be unavoidable.

If a Good offered by Velce is not as described, other than variations described above at 4.3 your sole remedy is to return it in unused condition for exchange or refund (at Velce’s election).

Velce has the right to refuse refund or exchange based on inaccurate information, or if the returned product has been used or damaged in any way.

purchase of goods

An Order is deemed confirmed upon receipt of payment in full.

Availability is subject to change without notice.

Prices are subject to change without notice at any time prior to Velce confirming an Order.

Errors as to price or availability will be corrected on the Site where discovered, and Velce reserves the right to revoke any stated offer and to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions (including where an Order has already been received).

Velce reserves the right to cancel or reject an Order for any reason, including but not limited to unavailability of product, an error relating to pricing, incorrect image or product description, or other such errors deemed applicable to an order. If we reject or cancel an Order, we will endeavour to notify you of this event within a reasonable time after you have submitted your Order. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any payments received for an Order cancelled or rejected by Velce will be refunded.

Unless otherwise advised at the time of confirming an Order, Orders are normally shipped within 21 business days of confirming the Order. Time of shipment will be complied with wherever possible but may be extended to cover delays caused by manufacture and transport delays that are beyond Velce’s reasonable control.

All deliveries shall be made to the nominated address.

If you discover an error with your shipping address or need to alter the delivery destination due to delays, we recommend that you contact us and advise of the correct delivery details. You may only notify us of these changes prior to your Order being dispatched. If no one is present to accept your Order at the time of delivery, the courier will normally leave a calling card requesting you contact them to arrange a re-delivery or to arrange pickup at the nearest depot.

If a consignment is returned to us undeliverable (RTS - return to sender) and requires re-delivery OR in cases where the courier may require further payment for an attempted delivery or re-delivery, you will be required to pay the additional amount. Velce is not responsible for covering these additional charges, furthermore the original freight charge will not be refunded.

You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to provide labour and equipment to unload and position the Goods on site at your expense.

RISK AND title

All items purchased from Velce are delivered to you by third party providers (the Carrier). The risk of the Goods pass to you upon delivery by Velce to the Carrier. 

The Carrier may offer insurance options at an additional cost.  It is your responsibility to ensure you purchase any such insurance with the Carrier if you wish the Goods to be insured during delivery.

returns and refunds

You must review your Order carefully before placing it. Once an Order is confirmed, you are unable to cancel or change it.  You acknowledge that some Velce Goods are made to order or have a limited market which increases the damage Velce will suffer if you attempt to cancel or change an Order.

If the Goods you receive do not meet the requirements of any Law, Velce will (at its election) either replace or refund the purchase price of the Goods upon their return.

Before returning any Goods, you must email Velce at studio@velce.cc for return authorisation.

Velce is not responsible for any damage during transit or lost packages being returned.

Goods that are not returned in their original condition will either be refused or subject to further charges.
