5.1. The Products offered in the Store are articles of clothing and accessories (such as, merely by way of example, shoes, small leather goods, bags, glasses, beauty and care accessories, perfumes and watches) of the brand ROGER VIVIER contained in the electronic catalogue published on the Store at the time when the user places the order.
5.2. Product availability is constantly monitored and updated. Nevertheless, since the Store may be visited simultaneously by various users, it is possible that more than one user purchases the same product at the same time. In these cases, the Product may appear as available for a short time, even though it is not immediately available.
5.3 Should the Product prove unavailable for the aforementioned reasons or in other cases of unexpected unavailability of the Product (any such unavailable Product, “Unavailable Product”), without prejudice to any other legal rights of the user, TOD’S SPA will immediately inform the user by e-mail. The user will therefore be entitled to terminate the purchase contract.
Alternatively and without prejudice to this right, the user might accept one of the following TOD’S SPA options (the “User Options”):
should the Product become available again: an extension of the terms of delivery, with indications, on the part of TOD’S SPA, of the new term of delivery of the Product;
should the Product not become available again: the supply of a different Product, of equivalent or higher value, upon payment, in the latter case, of the difference, upon prior approval of the user. It is specified that, in this case, if the user chose the Real Time Banking Payment (where available) for the initial transaction and the price of the Product requested as a replacement is higher if compared to that of the product originally purchased, the purchase contract regarding the Product originally purchased will be terminated (and, consequently, the order will be cancelled and the Total Sum Due (as defined below) paid will be refunded, as set out in Article 5.4 below); subsequently, a new order, containing the Product requested by the user as a replacement, will be placed.
The user's choice shall be promptly communicated to TOD’S SPA, via e-mail, to the e-mail address indicated Article 16 below.
5.4 If the user avails themselves of the right to terminate the purchase contract whereof in Section 5.3 above, and the payment of the total sum due - given by the price of the Product, the delivery fees, if applicable, and any other additional cost, resulting in the order ("Total Sum Due") - has already been made, TOD’S SPA will refund the Total Sum Due without undue delay and, in any case, within 15 working days starting from the day on which the order has been placed. The user shall be informed of the sum of the refund by e-mail and the sum will be credited to the user with the same form of payment used by the user for the purchase. In case the payment was made by means of bank transfer, TOD’S SPA will request the user to provide their bank account details necessary for the refund. Any delays in crediting the amount may depend on the bank, the type of credit card or the form of payment used. In any case, the value date of the credited sum shall be the same as the charged sum.
5.5 In case of Multiple Order, whether the unexpected unavailability concerns only some of the Products within the Multiple Order (without prejudice to the user's legal rights, and without prejudice to the application of Articles 5.3 and 5.4 above) or all Products within the order, TOD’S SPA will in each case promptly warn the user via e-mail.. The user will therefore be entitled to immediately terminate the purchase contract, limited to Unavailable Products. Again, as an alternative, and without prejudice to this right, the user can accept one of the User Options set out above.
5.6 In case the user avails themselves of the termination right set out in Article 5.5 above, the purchase contract of those Unavailable Products within the Multiple Order will be partially terminated, limited to such Product(s), with resulting refund, in case it has already been paid, of the amount due for the Product(s), and any other possible cost specifically related to the Product(s) ("Partial Sum Due"). The termination of the entire Multiple Order will occur only if the Unavailable Products of the Multiple Order is/are considered ancillary in respect to the other Product(s), that are available. The Partial Sum Due to the user with reference to the Unavailable Products will be refunded without undue delay and, in any case, within 15 working days starting from the day on which the order has been placed. The user shall be informed of the sum of the refund by e-mail and the sum will be credited to the user with the same form of payment used by the user for the purchase. In case the payment was made by means of bank transfer, TOD’S SPA will request the user to provide their bank account details necessary for the refund. Any delays in crediting the amount may depend on the bank, the type of credit card or the form of payment used. In any case, the value date of the credited sum shall be the same as the charged sum.
Pre-Order Products
5.7 Without prejudice to what expressed in Articles 5.2, 5.3, 5.5 and 5.6 above, TOD’S SPA reserves its right to offer the user the opportunity to purchase in advance Products belonging to new collections before they are even manufactured. The Products which can be purchased before their own manufacture will be listed in a dedicated section on the Site and/or will be identified with the "Pre-order" caption ("Pre-order Products"). The date the Pre-order Products will be available will be identified in the Product Sheet (defined in Article 6 below) of each Pre-order Product, as well as during the whole purchase procedure, and, in any case, before the user is bound to the purchase contract of the Pre-order Product. Pre-order Products can be purchased and paid by the user through the same payment methods specified in the Terms and Conditions of Sale, except Real Time Banking Payment, which will not be available for the purchase of Pre-Order Products.
Once the purchase contract is entered into, the user will receive an order confirmation e-mail, but specifically referred to Pre-order Products; this e-mail will be different from the one concerning Products, other than Pre-order Products, which might be purchased by the user together with Pre-order Products and/or Back-order Products.
The effective charge of the Total Sum Due for the Pre-order Products will take place only once the Pre-order Product is shipped. If the payment is made with credit card or PayPal, the user will be charged no amount before said date, but TOD’S SPA will merely check the validity of the card and the absence of possible blocks, as specified in Article 9.2 hereafter.
Those who purchase a Pre-order Product will be notified via e-mail of the supervening availability of the Pre-Order Product(s) ("Supervening Availability Confirmation E-mail"). Unless otherwise specified in the Product Sheet and/or during the purchase process, all Pre-order Product(s) will therefore be delivered within 4-7 working days of receipt of the Supervening Availability Confirmation E-mail if the user has selected the standard delivery option or within 2-4 working days of receipt of the Supervening Availability Confirmation E-mail if the user has selected the express delivery option. In case the Pre-order Product is not manufactured, or in case of failed or delayed delivery, the provisions of Article 10.12 below will be applied. All other provisions in the Terms and Conditions of Sale will also apply.
Back-order Products
5.8 Without prejudice to what expressed in Articles 5.2, 5.3 and 5,4 above, TOD’S SPA reserves its right to offer the user the opportunity to purchase Products which, even if not currently available in the electronic catalogue of the Site (because momentarily out of stock, for instance), can be selected by the user to be purchased. These Products will be listed in a dedicated section on the Site and/or will be identified with the "Back-order" caption ("Back-order Products"). The date the Back-order Products will be available will be identified in the Product Sheet of each Back-order Product, as well as during the whole purchase process and, in any case before the user is bound to the purchase contract of the Back-order Product. Once the purchase contract is entered into, the user will receive an order confirmation e-mail, specifically referred to Back-order Products: this e-mail will be different from the one concerning Products which are not Back-order Products, but which might be purchased by the user together with Back-order Products and/or Pre-order Products.
Back-order Products can be purchased and paid by the user through the same payment methods specified in the Terms and Conditions of Sale, except for Real Time Banking Payment, which is not available for the purchase of Back-Order Products; the effective charge of the Total Sum Due for Back-order Products will take place as specified in the second paragraph of Article 5.7 above.
Those who purchase a back-order Product will be notified via e-mail of the supervened availability of the Back-Order Product(s) ("Supervening Availability Confirmation E-mail"). Unless otherwise specified in the Product Sheet and/or during the purchase process, all Back-order Product(s) will therefore be delivered within 4-7 working days since receipt of the Supervening Availability Confirmation E-mail if the user has selected the standard delivery option; within 2-4 working days since receipt of the Supervening Availability Confirmation E-mail if the user has selected the express delivery option. In case the Back-order Product will not be available again, or in case of failed or delayed delivery, the provisions of Article 10.12 following will apply. All other provisions in these Terms and Conditions of Sale will also be effective, if applicable.
Custom Made Products
5.9 TOD’S SPA reserves its right to offer the user the opportunity to purchase Custom Made Products: namely products that, starting with a base model, the user can personalize with the options available from time to time ("Custom Made Products"). Custom Made Products will be listed in a dedicated section of the Store and/or will be identified with the "Custom Made" caption. The date the Custom Made Product will be available will be identified in the Product Sheet of each Custom Made Product, as well as during the whole purchase procedure, and, in any case, before the user is bound to the purchase contract of the Custom Made Product. Custom Made Products can be purchased and paid by the user through the same payment methods specified in the Terms and Conditions of Sale, except Real Time Banking Payment, which will not be available for the payment of Custom Made Products. Once the purchase contract is entered into, the user will receive an order confirmation e-mail, specifically referred to Custom Made Products; this e-mail will be different from the one concerning Products which are not Custom Made Products, but which might be purchased by the user together with Custom Made Products. The effective charge of the Total Sum Due for the Custom Made Products will take place only once the Custom Made Product is shipped. If the payment is made with credit card or PayPal, the user will be charged no amount before said date, but TOD’S SPA will merely check the validity of the card and the absence of possible blocks, as specified in Article 9.2 below. Those who purchase a Custom Made Product will be notified via e-mail of the supervening availability of the Custom Made Product(s)
