2. PLACING AN ORDER

Who can place an order? These Terms relate to our Singapore website, www.graff.com. To purchase from the Singapore website, you must be over 18 and have a delivery address in Singapore. We are unable to deliver to certain addresses, including but not limited to Post Office Box addresses, hotels, hostels and certain restricted areas.

If you would like to ship to a country other than Singapore, please consult our global directory here, or contact our Customer Services Team here, and they will be able to direct you to the relevant microsite.

When is an order placed? Once you have selected the products you wish to purchase and placed them in your basket, you will be guided through the checkout process by a series of on-screen instructions. You place an order by clicking the [pay now] button at the end of the checkout process. We may seek pre-authorisation at the point you place your order, but we will take payment for the goods at the point we notify you the goods are ready for dispatch.

Check out options. You will be given the option to checkout as a guest or using a personal account. For details of how to register and use your account see here.

Order confirmation. We may send you an order acknowledgement email as soon as you place your order, and you will receive an order confirmation detailing the products you have ordered. These emails do not constitute acceptance of your order.

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. Our contract with you

Order acceptance. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we send you an order dispatch notice by email, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us. We will also issue you with an invoice at this point and will collect payment from the payment method you have provided us.

Non-acceptance. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this via email and/or telephone, using the details we hold for you and will not charge you for the product. This might be for example because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected events or limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because you do not meet the eligibility criteria to place an order set out in these Terms, because we have not been able to obtain authorisation for your payment, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.

4. Our products

We will take all reasonable care to ensure that the product descriptions, images and prices that appear on Our Site are correct, accurate and up-to-date. However, please take note of the following:

If you have any questions regarding the physical appearance or characteristics of a product you wish to purchase, please contact our Customer Services Team here.

Images. The images of the products on Our Site are for illustrative purposes only and do not show the actual product you will receive. There may be some key variances in relation to:

(a) Colour: although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device's display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images.
(b) Size: on the website, some products appear larger than the actual size, in order that we can clearly show the product’s details. Alternatively, they may be shown at small scale in order to show the entire item. Your product may vary in scale, please refer to the product measurements and dimensions for an accurate depiction of the size of the product.
(c) Carat weight: the carat weight detailed for each product on Our Site is accurate to 2 decimal places. Images used on Our Site may show products of similar, but not exactly the same, carat weight.

Customised products. Certain of our rings can be customised to your preferred size. Where this is the case, you will be presented with sizing options during the ordering process. Customising may mean we are required to make some changes to the original specification; where this is the case, we will discuss such changes with you in advance of confirming your order.

Product packaging may vary. The packaging of the product may vary from that shown in images on our website.

Making sure your measurements are accurate. If we are customising the product to measurements you have given us, you are responsible for ensuring that these measurements are correct. Please see our size guide here. If you require assistance, please contact us here and we would be happy to provide guidance.

5. Delivery

Delivery costs. We will use specialist delivery partners to deliver the products to you. The costs of delivery vary depending on the products and the delivery address. The delivery cost for your products will be as displayed on the check-out page, when you place your order. You can see more details of delivery costs and timescales here.

Delivery timescales. Your order will be fulfilled by the estimated delivery date set out in the order confirmation email, unless we are prevented from doing so by circumstances beyond our reasonable control. If this happens, we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and provide a revised estimated delivery date. Provided we do this we will not be liable for such delays. If the delay is substantial you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.

Collection by you. If you have asked to collect the products from one of our boutiques, you can do so during the advertised opening times.

Missed deliveries and collections. If no one is available at your address to take delivery, our delivery partners will leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery or a collection from boutique.

If you do not collect the products as arranged or if, after a failed delivery, you do not re-arrange an alternative delivery or collection, we will contact you for further instructions. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection, we may end the contract and we will provide a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.

Title and Risk. You will own the product from the point at which we have received your payment in full and (in the case of payment via bank transfer) in cleared funds.

Risk in the product you have ordered will pass to you at the moment when you or someone authorised by you, receives the product from us (or from our delivery partners, on our behalf). If you notify us you wish to end the contract, risk in the returned products will transfer back to us at the point you or someone authorised by you, hands the product to one of our boutique staff or to our specialist delivery partner (if we have arranged to collect the product from you) or (where you arrange the return yourself) we receive it from your carrier at one of our boutiques or our office address.

If you are unable to arrange the payment, we may terminate the contract with you.

9. If there is a problem with the product

10. Price and payment

What happens if we got the price wrong. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct and we normally check prices before accepting your order. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. If at the date you place your order, the product's correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. However, if we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

When and how you must pay. We accept payment via the various methods shown on the order page. We ask you to pay for the products at the time of placing your order, however we may not charge your credit or debit card until just before we dispatch the products to you. When placing an order, you confirm that the form of payment that you use to make payment to us is yours and that you have authority to place the order.

If you think an invoice, or information shown on the order confirmation email or despatch note, is wrong, please contact us promptly to let us know.
