Standard Terms for Purchasing/Returning a Product on Udesigntees

The proposals offered on Udesigntees and in partner shops on the website serve as a non-binding request for the customer to purchase an order with Udesigntees.

By completing an order application and sending the request to purchase a Product on the Site, the buyer makes a binding offer for a contract of sale of the content product offered on the Site. The buyer then will receive an e-mail with the order confirmation. This e-mail validates and shall only inform the buyer that their order was received by Udesigntees and does not suggest an approval of the offer. The contract is only accepted and becomes active when Udesigntees ships the ordered product to the buyer and confirms the shipment of the product to the buyer in a second e-mail.

The contract becomes terminated with full delivery to the address provided by the buyer to Udesigntees. Udesigntees will attempt to replace the product with an identical substitute transaction if any disruption of shipment of the product occurs. If Udesigntees fails to comprise the unavailable product in a business timeframe, the buyer shall be informed immediately about the non-availability of the product and the service. If the buyer has already made a payment, the payment shall be refunded.

Udesigntees maintains the right to deny any given orders for any reason with notice to the customer. Udesigntees also may cancel an order if it is believed to violate these Terms and Conditions or infringe on the rights of any person or any law. A purchased product order may be canceled even if it has been confirmed and the customer has made payment. We retain this right until the time the customer receives the product ordered. If such a cancellation occurs after the customer has made a payment for the product, the charged amount will be refunded back to the customer’s account.

Buyers can purchase products on the Site using a valid credit card. The price of the purchased product is fixed at the time of ordering. The cost of the product will be charged at the time your order is placed.

Udesigntees has the right to rely on trustworthy third-party services for handling payments. In the event of delinquency of payment from the customer, Udesigntees has the right to transfer the claims to a debt collection agency along with personal information needed for the handling of payments to third parties.

It is the buyers/users/customers obligation to provide the correct delivery shipment address. Udesigntees takes no accountability for any product the customer does not obtain due to an incorrect address provided for shipment to Udesigntees.

You may not cancel an order once it has been submitted unless informed otherwise. Once a printing of a product begins, cancellation cannot be performed. Orders enter the printing process as early as the same day or the next business day after the order has been placed on the Site.

Cancellation on orders before printing begun can be done with a fifteen percent (15%) cancellation fee of the order total. The fifteen percent cancellation fee includes costs associated with preparing for an order, including artwork processing, prepress processing, and material preparation costs. Orders are processed as early as minutes after they are placed on Udesigntees.

Customers have 30 days guaranteed after the order has been shipped in order to get a refund or exchange. Once the customer receives the purchased product from our Site and the product received is not the right ordered merchandise or physically damaged due to an error on our part or the seller’s, Udesigntees will contact the seller to address the issue for the replacement of the product after receiving reasonable proof of the issue from the buyer. If you receive a damaged product, then you must contact Udesigntees customer service within 14 days of receipt with the nature of the damage and to arrange for a new product to be sent to you at no cost to you.

Buyers/Customers must be aware that published products by the sellers are regulated and controlled by the seller and Udesigntees does not screen all the content on the Site. Therefore, it is the customer’s duty to validate the quality of the content including but not limited to grammar errors, misspelled words or overall presence of the product before making the purchase.
