4.2 Product Availability & Information Accuracy

Product specifications, images, dimensions, pricing, and stock status are supplied directly by independent Suppliers. While we endeavor to maintain strict catalog quality standards, we do not warrant that product descriptions, pricing, color rendering, or stock availability are accurate, complete, reliable, or error-free.

4.3 Pricing & Typographical Errors

Prices are set by Suppliers and are subject to change without prior notice. In the event a product is listed at an incorrect price due to Supplier input errors or technical glitches, Suppliers and Cartoix reserve the right to cancel any orders placed for such mispriced items prior to shipping.

  • Payment Processing: Payment is processed via secure third-party payment gateways (e.g., Stripe, PayPal). By providing payment credentials, you represent that you are authorized to use the chosen payment method.
  • Taxes & Import Duties: Listed prices may exclude applicable sales tax, VAT, GST, or import duties depending on shipment origin and destination. Buyers are responsible for paying all applicable taxes and customs clearance fees.
