- Are descriptions of Products and prices flawless?
We do our best to ensure that the information about Products is accurate and up-to-date. However, we do not guarantee that there will be no errors in the description and/or pricing of the Products, or that Products will always be available if you wish to place an order to purchase them.
Also, the colors you see on your screen may depend on your computer system and settings, so we cannot guarantee that your computer will accurately display such colors.
We reserve the right to modify the information about Products displayed on our Site, including as regards prices, description, and availability. However, such changes will not affect Orders for which you have already received an Order Receipt email (see below).
- How do I make a purchase on this Site?
We describe here all the steps necessary to make a purchase (in legal terms, to conclude a purchase contract) on our Site. The process below will be available in the following languages, also depending on the country website you may have accessed: English & Arabic.
The concluded contract will be provided to you at the end of the process and will also be accessible - but not modifiable - in the future by us.
1st step: you place an Order
To complete a purchase, you first have to place an order for Products. Then, this Order has to be accepted by us.
To place an order, you must be 18 years of age or over. To place an order, you will have to select the Products on the Site, select your preferred shipping method and if you like, other optional services, and finally click on the “BUY IT NOW” button. We will not accept Orders placed in any way other than as detailed above.
2nd step: we confirm receipt of the Order
When you place the order through the Site you will receive an automated email confirming receipt of your Order ("Order Receipt email"). The Order Receipt email contains full details of your Order (such as Order No., information on Products, prices, your shipping address, delivery costs and other). Please note the Order Receipt email is NOT already an acceptance of your Order.
3rd step: upfront payment through Debit / Credit Card
We usually collect payment for an Order, as soon as you place your order via kipling.com.kw See our Payment Terms for more details.
4th step: we confirm that Products have been shipped - the contract concluded!
When your order is accepted by us, we send you an email confirming that all, or part, of the Products, have been shipped ("Shipping Confirmation email").
Once you receive the Shipping Confirmation email, your Order has been finally accepted by us and the purchase contract between you and us is concluded in relation to the Products actually shipped. Such a contract is composed of your Order; our Order Receipt and Shipping Confirmation emails; the then-current Terms of Sale. No other terms and conditions shall apply.
When Orders are not accepted
While we do our best to always accept Orders, we could, however, refuse an Order in certain cases, for example, if:

- the Products you ordered are unfortunately out of stock or no longer available;
- We have reasonable grounds to believe that you intend to resell the Products.
If we cannot accept your Order we will contact you by email as soon as possible but in any case no later than 30 days from the date of your order. If we cannot accept your Order because the Products are no longer available, or because of an error in the price and/or other information on our Site, we will refund you any money you may have already been charged for such Products.
