Welcome to Shop-Handbags.
These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of shop-handbags.com, including browsing products, creating an account, placing an order, and using any related services.
Our website and e-commerce services are hosted by Shopify. Please read these Terms of Service carefully before accessing the website or purchasing from us.
By accessing or using this website, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service, together with our Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, Returns & Refund Policy, and any other applicable policies published on the website.
If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the website.
1. Eligibility
By using this website, you confirm that you have reached the legal age of majority in your place of residence, or that you are using the website with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.
You may not use this website for any unlawful, fraudulent, or unauthorised purpose.
We may refuse service, restrict an account, or cancel an order when reasonably necessary, provided that we do not unlawfully discriminate or otherwise violate applicable law.
2. Accounts and Security
Certain website features may require you to create an account.
You are responsible for:
-
Providing accurate, complete, and current information
-
Keeping your login details and password secure
-
Preventing unauthorised access to your account
-
Contacting us promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without permission
Activity carried out through your account will generally be treated as authorised by you unless you promptly report unauthorised use.
We will never ask you to provide your complete payment card number, payment password, or account password through regular email.
3. Independent Retailer Notice
Shop-Handbags is an independently operated handbag retailer. We are not an authorised retailer, official boutique, partner, representative, or affiliate of any third-party brand.
Unless clearly stated otherwise on the relevant product page, products sold through this website do not include official third-party brand authentication, manufacturer warranties, or after-sales service provided by the brands themselves.
Any third-party trademarks, brand names, design names, or product references mentioned on this website remain the property of their respective owners. They are used only to identify or describe products and do not imply authorisation, endorsement, sponsorship, or partnership.
Customers seeking officially authorised products should purchase directly from the relevant brand or one of its authorised retailers.
4. Licence to Use the Website
We grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable, and non-exclusive licence to access and use this website for personal browsing and shopping purposes only.
Without our prior written permission, you may not:
-
Copy, reproduce, sell, or commercially use website content
-
Scrape or collect website data or product information in bulk
-
Modify, reverse-engineer, or interfere with website functions
-
Use automated systems to bypass security measures
-
Impersonate another person or submit false information
-
Use the website for unauthorised commercial activity on behalf of a third party
Violations may result in restrictions or termination of your access, account, or orders.
5. Product Information
We make reasonable efforts to display product descriptions, colours, measurements, materials, structure, hardware, images, and other information accurately.
However, the actual product may vary slightly due to:
-
Photography and lighting conditions
-
Screen and device settings
-
Manual measurement
-
Natural variations in materials
-
Differences between supply or production batches
-
Packaging updates
Minor variations that do not materially affect the overall appearance, structure, or normal use of a product are generally not considered defects.
This section does not limit your rights under our Returns & Refund Policy or applicable law when an item is clearly defective, damaged, incorrect, or materially different from its description.
6. Product Availability and Stock
Some products may be available in limited quantities or may require stock confirmation.
We reserve the right to:
-
Limit the quantity of an item that may be purchased
-
Discontinue a product
-
Update available options
-
Correct stock information
-
Cancel unavailable products or orders
If we are unable to fulfil a paid order, we will contact you and, depending on the circumstances, offer an alternative product, an order adjustment, or a refund.
7. Prices and Currency
Unless otherwise clearly stated, prices on the website are generally displayed in US dollars.
Prices may change due to promotions, market conditions, supply costs, or website updates. Price changes will not normally affect orders that have already been completed and accepted, except in cases of an obvious technical, display, or pricing error.
We reserve the right to correct clear errors in product pricing, discounts, stock information, or descriptions.
If we identify a clear pricing error before dispatch that affects the amount payable, we will contact you and give you the option to confirm the order at the correct price or cancel it. Any relevant payment already collected for a cancelled order will be returned to the original payment method.
8. Taxes, Duties, and Import Charges
Whether product prices and checkout charges include applicable taxes depends on the destination and the information displayed during checkout.
International orders may be inspected by customs authorities and may be subject to import taxes, customs duties, handling fees, or other local charges.
Unless the checkout page or our Shipping Policy clearly states that these charges are included, the recipient may be responsible for paying them in accordance with local regulations.
We do not control the rates or fees imposed by customs authorities in different countries or regions.
9. Payment
You agree to provide accurate, valid, and complete payment and billing information.
Payments may be processed by Shopify, card issuers, digital wallet providers, or other third-party payment services. We do not normally store your full payment card number or payment password.
By submitting an order, you confirm that:
-
You are authorised to use the selected payment method
-
Your billing information is true and accurate
-
You authorise the relevant payment provider to charge the amount shown
-
You agree to pay the product, shipping, and other applicable charges shown at checkout
We may suspend or cancel an order if payment fails, is declined, is reversed, or is identified as potentially fraudulent or high-risk.
10. Discount Codes and Promotions
Discount codes, gifts, and promotions may be subject to conditions including:
-
Expiry dates
-
Eligible products
-
Minimum order values
-
Eligible countries or customers
-
Limits per customer or order
-
Restrictions on combining offers
Unless the promotion clearly states otherwise, discount codes generally cannot be combined.
We reserve the right to cancel or remove discounts used because of a system error, unauthorised distribution, abuse, fraud, or failure to meet the promotion’s terms.
11. Order Submission and Acceptance
Submitting an order and receiving an automatic confirmation email means that we have received your order request. It does not necessarily mean that the order has passed final review or been accepted for fulfilment.
Orders may be subject to:
-
Payment confirmation
-
Stock verification
-
Product inspection
-
Shipping address verification
-
Fraud prevention or security review
We may reasonably refuse, limit, adjust, or cancel an order where:
-
A product is unavailable
-
Product or pricing information contains a clear error
-
Payment is unsuccessful
-
The shipping address is incomplete or undeliverable
-
The order is identified as fraudulent, unusual, or high-risk
-
The customer has violated these Terms of Service
-
Legal, payment-provider, or shipping restrictions prevent fulfilment
If we cancel a paid order that has not been fulfilled, the relevant amount will be refunded to the original payment method, and we will notify you using the contact details provided.
12. Customer Order Cancellations
To request an order cancellation, please email:
Please include your order number.
We will do our best to cancel an order that has not yet entered stock confirmation, product inspection, packing, or shipping.
Once an order has entered processing or has been dispatched, it may no longer be possible to cancel it immediately. After delivery, you may request a return in accordance with our Returns & Refund Policy.
13. Shipping
We currently ship to major European countries, the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Available destinations, shipping fees, estimated delivery times, order processing, tracking, address changes, and delivery issues are governed by our Shipping Policy.
All delivery times are estimates and are not guaranteed delivery dates.
Customs clearance, flight schedules, weather, public holidays, remote locations, and local carrier handling may cause delays.
After a parcel has been handed to the carrier, we will continue to provide reasonable assistance with shipping inquiries. We do not automatically disclaim all responsibility simply because the parcel has been dispatched.
14. Shipping Addresses
You are responsible for reviewing the recipient’s name, shipping address, postal code, and phone number before submitting your order.
Please contact us as soon as possible if you notice an error.
If the order has not yet shipped, we will do our best to update the address. Once the order has been dispatched, we cannot guarantee that the carrier will be able to change it.
You may be responsible for delays, returns, redelivery charges, or other losses caused by incorrect, incomplete, or undeliverable information, subject to any rights or protections available under applicable law.
15. Returns, Exchanges, and Refunds
Eligible products may be returned within 30 days of delivery in accordance with our Returns & Refund Policy.
All returns must be approved in advance. Return conditions, shipping-cost responsibility, non-returnable items, exchange procedures, and refund arrangements are explained in the Returns & Refund Policy.
Approved refunds will generally be processed within 14 business days after we receive and inspect the returned item.
Nothing in these Terms of Service limits or excludes any mandatory rights to returns, refunds, repairs, replacements, or other remedies available under applicable consumer law.
16. Accuracy of Website Information
We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product, pricing, inventory, promotional, and other website information is accurate. However, we cannot guarantee that all content will always be completely free from errors or omissions.
We may, without prior notice:
-
Correct errors
-
Update product descriptions
-
Adjust inventory
-
Change prices
-
Cancel orders affected by an obvious error
If an error materially affects a paid order, we will contact you before dispatch and provide reasonable options.
