3. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU

3.1 How we will accept your order. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.

3.2 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this by email and will not charge you for the product. This might be because the product is out of stock or because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because there is a safety issue or because we are unable to verify that you are aged over 18 years of age or because you are resident in a country that we can't supply to (see clause 3.4 below).

3.3 Your order number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.

3.4 For non UK residents. If you're resident outside of the UK then it is your responsibility to ensure that the products that you order from us comply with the local laws that apply in your country and to take responsibility for importing the goods into your country. We will have no responsibility for products which are stopped at customs or which do not meet the legislation which applies in your country.

3.5 We only sell to people over 18. By law we cannot sell e-cigarettes or related products to anyone who is under 18 years of age.

3.6 Verification of your identity. In order to comply with our legal obligations not to sell to people under 18 and to minimise the risk of fraud on your account we carry out electronic verification on our customers.

8.1 You can always end your contract with us. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on whether there is anything wrong with the product you've bought, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:

(a) If what you have bought is faulty or mis-described you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or a service re-performed or to get some or all of your money back), see clause 11;

(b) If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause 8.2;

(c) If you have just changed your mind about the product, see clause 8.3. You may be able to get a refund if you are within the cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions.


8.2 Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at (a) to (c) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:

(a) we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;

(b) there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;

(c) you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.


8.3 Exercising your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013). For most products bought online if you are resident in the UK you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms.


8.4 Our goodwill guarantee. Please note, these terms reflect the goodwill guarantee offered by Vape Club to its UK customers, which is more generous than your legal rights under the Consumer Contracts Regulations as it applies to all customers and allows you to return the goods within 30 days of delivery. This goodwill guarantee does not affect your legal rights in relation to faulty or misdescribed products (see clause 11.2):


8.5 When you don't have the right to change your mind. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of products (e.g. vape kits) sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you receive them.


8.6 How long do I have to change my mind? You have 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery to change your mind about the goods.
