4. Prices

4.1

The price applicable to your Order will be the price displayed at checkout before you complete your purchase.

Standard shipping is offered free of charge where stated on our Website and Shipping Policy.

4.2

Where The Paw Company states that customs duties, VAT and clearance charges are included or covered by us for the destination concerned, you will not be charged those costs separately by The Paw Company.

Because Products may be shipped from international fulfilment centres, customs procedures may apply.

If any unexpected customs, duty or clearance charge is requested from you in connection with an Order for which we have stated that such charges are covered, please contact us before making payment at:

hello@thepawcomapnysupport.shop

4.3

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that Product information, descriptions and prices displayed on our Website are accurate.

However, errors may occur.

If we identify an obvious pricing error before fulfilling an Order, we may contact you and offer you the opportunity to:

(a) confirm the Order at the correct price; or

(b) cancel the affected Product or Order and receive a full refund for any amount already paid for it.

4.4

We are not required to supply a Product at an obviously incorrect price where the pricing error was clear and recognisable as an error, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

4.5

We may change our prices from time to time. Price changes will not retrospectively affect Orders already accepted by us.


5. Placing an Order

5.1

All Orders are subject to availability.

After placing an Order, you will normally receive an electronic confirmation acknowledging your Order.

If we are unable to fulfil the Order because of stock availability or another fulfilment issue, we will inform you and refund any applicable payment.

5.2

A sales contract is formed when we accept your Order, normally by issuing an Order Confirmation or otherwise confirming fulfilment of the Order.

5.4

We reserve the right to:

(a) discontinue Products;

(b) change Product availability;

(c) update Website content; and

(d) correct Website errors.

This does not affect contracts we have already accepted or mandatory consumer rights.
