All prices, quotes, discounts, and promotions available on Salon’s website or provided to you from Salon are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product or service will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in your invoice once your order is finalized. Posted prices do not include taxes or charges for shipping and handling. All such taxes and charges will be added to your merchandise total, and will be itemized and provided on your invoice. We strive to display accurate price information, however we may, on occasion, make inadvertent typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions related to pricing and availability. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time and to cancel any orders arising from such occurrences.

4. Shipments; Delivery; Title and Risk of Loss.
(a) All products are made to order. We will coordinate and arrange for shipment of the products with you. You will provide the location for the delivery and storage of the order to us, and we will work with you to facilitate the delivery of the order to the place of delivery specified at the time of order. Orders will require a signature upon delivery. Fees apply for address changes made after an order has shipped and returned packages. You will pay all shipping and handling charges specified during the ordering process. Shipping and handling charges are reimbursement for the costs we incur in the processing, handling, packing, shipping, and delivery of your order. Moreover, international orders may require the payment of import duties, custom fees, clearing fees, taxes, and/or other fees, which are your responsibility unless you and Salon agree otherwise in writing.
(b) As a service to you, Salon shall arrange the shipping of the orders through one of our preferred carriers. If you prefer to manage your own freight and delivery, Salon must be notified of the specific details of the movement of the order. You will be charged a fee to move the order to a terminal for your chosen carrier’s pick-up, which will be included in your final invoice. All products are moved through a Bill of Lading, and the location of the pick-up by you or your agent may trigger a sales or use tax liability at that location. If you select your own freight carrier, freight claims must be filed directly with the selected carrier. Salon is not responsible or liable for your own or third-party freight damage and claim.
(c) Salon highly recommends using a qualified receiving warehouse to receive, inspect, consolidate deliveries and facilitate installation. Salon will recommend a receiver for client if needed, however Salon’s does not endorse any such receivers or services and will not assume any liability or loss that may occur as a result of using any such receiver. All crated goods must go through a professional receiver such as a receiving warehouse. A receiving warehouse acts as an agent for the client and is responsible to note any damage and assist the owner with filing a freight claim when any damage is found. A qualified receiving person should be present to accept products when delivered directly to a home or business location. In the event that you do not accept delivery, you agree to pay any additional return shipping expenses and $1,000 per month in storage fees as applicable and any additional cost resulting from your non-acceptance will be billed directly to you.
A signature on the Bill of Lading upon receipt of the products confirms that the products are received in good condition unless exception is made on the Bill of Lading. If the merchandise is refused upon delivery for quality or damage issues, the receiver should contact Salon immediately.
(d) Title and risk of loss pass to you upon receipt by you at the delivery location. For clarification, Salon shall not be responsible for any damage or loss to your order that occur during the packaging, shipping and delivery of your order, and you agree to indemnify Salon against any and all claims in connection to the packaging, shipping and delivery of such order. Shipping and delivery dates are estimates only and cannot be guaranteed. We are not liable for any delays in shipments.
5. Defective Products and Returns. All of our products are custom made to order for you. Products are inspected by the Supplier prior to release to ensure that the order is free of defects or damage, complete, and ready for shipment. Salon does not accept returns. However, you shall have fourteen (14) days from the date of delivery to inspect your order for any defects or damage and contact Salon at sales@salondesign.us in regard to the damage or defect so that we can review your issue (“Inspection Period”). In the event, that (i) you report the product damage or defect to Salon within the Inspection Period, and (ii) we inspect the product and determine that the product is defective or damaged, then we will work with you and the Supplier to furnish you with a repaired or replacement product as soon as practicable.
6. Product Variation, Warranty and Disclaimers. Due to the bespoke and small batch nature of our products, variations can occur. Fluctuations in the digital printing process, textures of woven natural fibers, and custom dying of yarn are all issues that can contribute to variation but also offer a one-of-a-kind product. Salon and our Suppliers strive for consistency; however allowances are made for up to a ten percent (10%) tolerance of variation.
