Terms & Conditions
Here are all the details you need to give you confidence when making a
purchase at KissShoe.co.uk. We think we’ve got everything covered in our
Terms and Conditions, but if you’ve got any additional queries you can
always have a look at our Frequently Asked Questions page or send us an
email to [email protected]
The Terms and Conditions below apply to the use of the KissShoe.co.uk
website, and by placing an order with us you are agreeing to accept
them. They also comply with UK legislation, including the Distance
Selling Regulations/Consumer Contracts Regulations.
Ordering
Orders may be placed using the KissShoe.co.uk website. We are unable to
take orders over the phone or via email requests. We reserve the right
to cancel or refuse any orders from a customer with whom there is a
dispute relating to the payment of a previous order or who appears to
present some form of risk.
All orders imply acceptance of the prices and product descriptions
available at the time of sale. KissShoe.co.uk undertakes to honour the
orders received on the website subject to product availability. If one
or more products ordered are not available, we will inform the customer
as soon as possible. The customer's order will therefore be cancelled
and the corresponding amount refunded.
Payment
We accept all major credit cards and debit cards via our online payment
gateway. Payments will be encrypted to ensure secure electronic
transmission of data. Payment can also be made using PayPal.
Payment must be made in full in one instalment.
KissShoe.co.uk reserves the right to check the personal information
given by the customer and to adopt any measures deemed necessary to
check that the person whose bank account is being debited is the person
who placed the order. This is to prevent any fraudulent payments. This
check may take the form of a request for proof of identity and/or
address and/or bank documents. If the customer fails to respond to such a
request within seven working days, the order in question will be
automatically cancelled, with no option to make a subsequent complaint.
KissShoe.co.uk is entitled to directly cancel an order that presents one
or more risk factors of fraudulent bank card use.
We may terminate the contract at any time and/or claim damages for
breach of contract if we suspect that you have made a fraudulent
misstatement to us, whether orally or in writing, prior to or after
entering into the contract.
Ownership of the goods shall not pass to you until we have received in
full all monies owed by you to us under this contract and any other
contract with us.
Prices
All prices listed on KissShoe.co.uk are correct at the time the
information is placed and all prices include VAT at the current UK
rate. We reserve the right to modify our prices at any time without
prior notice. The products will be invoiced according to the prices in
effect at the time the order is completed.
We try to be very competitive with our prices, but should a product be
listed at an incorrect price due to typographical error or error in
pricing information from our suppliers, we shall have the right to
refuse or cancel any orders listed at the incorrect price whether or not
the order has been confirmed.

and/or loss caused by a delay.

payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that we have no
control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Please
contact your local customs office for further information before placing
your order.
Please also note that you must comply with all applicable laws and
regulations of the country for which the goods are destined. We will not
be liable for any breach by you of any such laws.
Exchanges/Returns/Refunds
In the unlikely event that you are not completely satisfied with your
purchase you are entitled to an exchange or refund within 30 days from
the date of delivery. Please see the Returns Procedure if you wish to
return any items.
We will only grant an exchange or refund if footwear is returned in its
original condition. In order to ensure this is the case, we recommend
that footwear should be worn on a carpeted surface when being tried on.
Should the footwear appear scratched, marked, soiled, worn or damaged,
we will not grant the exchange or refund request. The item(s) returned
must include all packaging including any tissue paper, tags and the
intact original box which must not have any sticky tape or glue attached
to it. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the goods
while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this
obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation.
On receipt of the package, KissShoe.co.uk will judge whether the goods
are in perfect condition. No returns will be accepted if the goods have
been visibly used or damaged and if this use or damage has rendered the
products unsuitable for sale. If the return is refused by
KissShoe.co.uk, the goods will then be returned to the customer at our
expense. If the damage is limited then KissShoe.co.uk reserve the right
to offer a refund of a lower amount than the purchased price, relative
to the level of damage.
We recommend that you use Royal Mail Special Delivery or Royal Mail
Signed For and obtain a proof of postage so that the items are insured
and traceable for your own peace of mind. We cannot accept
responsibility for any delays or losses in transit for returned items,
we can only refund items we have received back in the condition stated
above.
When exchanging goods, the exchange order will be dispatched within 2
working days of the returned items being received. If the amount of the
customer's exchange order is more than the initial order, the difference
may be paid online by debit/credit card or via PayPal. The dispatch of
the customer's exchange order is conditional upon confirmation of this
payment. If the amount of the customer's exchange order is lower than
the initial order, KissShoe.co.uk will refund the difference within 7
working days of receipt of the returned item.
We will refund returned goods within 2 days from the date of receipt. We
will usually refund any money using the same method originally used by
you to pay for your purchase. Should this not be the case we will
contact you promptly to inform you of the refund method.
Your statutory rights are not affected when returning purchased goods.
Cancelling your order
Customers have the right to cancel any order placed on our website without needing to provide a reason. Customers can do this by e-mailing us at [email protected] and quoting your order number with a clear request to cancel the order. Customers have the right to cancel an order within 14 days from the date of delivery and the goods can be returned for a refund if the cancellation request is received subsequent to the dispatch of the goods ordered. The customer then has a further 14 days from the date of the cancellation request to return the goods back for a refund. The cost of returning the good will be the responsibility of the customer. Please ensure you provide us with your name, address, the product(s) ordered including the size and your order number.
