6.2 Prices shown on our international website will be charged in your local currency and are inclusive of VAT. Prices do not include delivery costs or taxes & duties.
6.3 All prices and offers remain valid as advertised from time to time. The price of a product displayed on the Website at the time the order is accepted will be honoured, except in cases of obvious error.
6.4 If you are a customer whose credit/debit card is not denominated in EURO, the final price will be calculated in accordance with the applicable exchange rate on the day your card issuer processes the transaction. Your card issuer or payment method provider may therefore apply other international bank charges. We have no control and cannot predict the amount of these charges. Please contact your issuing bank before placing your order if this applies to you.
6.5 For certain delivery destination countries and/or products, you may be offered the option to pre-pay applicable import charges, which will then be calculated and included in the final price when you place an order. You acknowledge that such import charges are set by the delivery destination country and therefore may vary from country to country.
6.6 In the event that the option to pre-pay applicable import charges is available for you and you choose to pre-pay such import charges, your final price will be fully guaranteed by Global-e, and Global-e will be fully responsible for paying the actual import charges as will be determined by your delivery destination country upon import of your order.
6.7 Global-e may contract with a local licensed customs broker in your country. Agreement to these Terms serve as an authorisation for the applicable customs broker to act as your agent to: (a) conduct transactions with the local applicable authority, (b) execute related documents on your behalf in connection with the import of products in your order, (c) facilitate the payment of applicable import charges; and (d) if applicable, return such product to Global-e (subject to these Terms). However, you acknowledge that, in the case of a return of product under the Additional Returns Policy below, you (and not Global-e or anyone on its behalf) will be fully responsible for claiming back such import charges from the applicable tax authority, to the extent possible, and Global-e shall have no responsibility or liability in connection with such claim.
6.8 You may decide not to pre-pay the import charges at checkout, or the option to pre-pay these may not be available for your delivery destination country. In such cases (i.e. where pre-pay doesn’t apply): (a) you are advised that the amount of import charges displayed under the pre-pay option on the checkout may not reflect the actual import charges payable by you as determined by your delivery destination country’s relevant authority, which may be more or less than such estimate; and (b)you will be fully responsible for paying all applicable Import Charges directly to the relevant authority(and for reclaiming them in the event of a cancellation or return or a return of products, to the extent permitted in the these Terms) as determined by the authorities of the delivery destination country, and Global-e shall have no responsibility or liability in connection with the foregoing.
6.9 If you elected not to pre-pay import charges, or failed to pay import charges, or refused to accept an order not in accordance with a due cancellation procedure under these Terms, resulting in the order being returned to Global-e or JACOB LEE, then you may be liable for the return delivery costs and may not be reimbursed or refunded for delivery costs paid by you for making the delivery to you. We may also charge you with additional direct or indirect charges resulting from said failure or refusal. We may, if that is in accordance with these Terms, reimburse and refund you for the cost of the products, but not the import charges which may or may not be reimbursable by the relevant authority.
