Welcome to the Obora Lux website (“oboralux.com”), owned and operated by OBORA LUX, LLC and its affiliates (“Obora Lux,” “we,” “our,” “us”). Your use of the Obora Lux website, related micro-sites accessed through www.oboralux.com, related domain names, and any other website or micro-site of Obora Lux (together the “Site”) is governed by the following legally binding terms and conditions along with any other rules posted on our Site (together the “Terms and Conditions,” or “TAC”). These terms and conditions are an integral part of the Website terms of use and by visiting the Site, you (the “user” or “you”) agree to be bound by the TAC, including those additional terms and conditions and policies referenced herein and/or available by hyperlink.
These terms and conditions are subject to change by OBORA LUX, LLC (referred to as “us” or “we”) without prior written notice at any time, in our sole discretion. Please revisit the TAC on a regular basis as it may change. Those persons wishing to use our services must read and agree to be bound by our policies relating to those services. In particular, you should also carefully review our Privacy Policy before placing an order for goods through this Website. If you do not agree to any change to the TAC, then you must immediately stop using the Site.
You must create an account at Obora Lux in order to gain access to the services and functionality that we may establish and maintain from time to time and in our sole discretion. You may never use another User’s account without permission. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account, and you must keep your account password secure. You must notify Obora Lux immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account. Obora Lux will not be liable for any losses caused by any unauthorized use of your account.
The Service is available through Facebook’s “Facebook Connect” service. [You must have an active Facebook account in order to access the Service through Facebook Connect], and you hereby represent and warrant that you have read and agreed to be bound by all applicable Facebook policies and will act in accordance with those policies, in addition to your obligations under this Agreement. If you access the Service through Facebook Connect, Obora Lux may require that your Obora Lux user ID be the same as your user name for Facebook. If you sign into Obora Lux through Facebook Connect, you will provide your Facebook account credentials to OBORA LUX, and you are consenting to have the information in that account transmitted into your Obora Lux account, and you agree that you shall only use Facebook accounts owned by you, and not by any other person or entity.
By providing Obora Lux your email address, you consent to our using that email address to send you Service-related notices, including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. We may also use your email address to send you other messages, such as changes to features of the Service and special offers. If you do not want to receive such email messages, you may opt out or change your preferences in your account settings at www.oboralux.com. Opting out may prevent you from receiving email messages regarding updates, improvements, or offers. Please note that if you do not want to receive legal notices from us, including without limitation a notification that this Agreement has changed, those legal notices will still govern your use of the Service. We will post legal notices to the Service, and you are responsible for reviewing such legal notices for changes. Please see our PRIVACY POLICY for more details.
We want all of our customers to be happy with purchases made through our Website. Not all Products are returnable. See our Returns & Exchanges policy for more information.
For information about payment options see our Payment policy.
For information about taxes and duties see our Shipping policy.
For information about website and payment security see our Payment policy.
Once you place your order, you will receive an email acknowledging the receipt and details of your order. However, your receipt of an electronic or other form of order confirmation does not signify our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell. We reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept, decline, or limit your order for any reason, whether or not your credit card has been charged. The contract between you and OBORA LUX, in turn, will be perfected when we dispatch the goods to you, at which time we will send you an additional email confirming the dispatch and listing your tracking number. We will not be liable to you or any third party for withdrawing any sold or unsold merchandise from the Site, refusing to process a transaction or suspending a transaction after processing has begun. We may, for example, refuse your order because we have difficulty obtaining payment authorization, shipping restrictions apply to your order, the item is out-of-stock, or you fail to meet the requirements described in this TAC for purchasing products through OBORA LUX. The sale contract is concluded in New Jersey and the language of the contract is English.
All products specified as “Made-To-Order” will be made upon receipt of payment. We do not have these products in stock, so once payment is processed, each product will require 7-14 days to be cut, made, and delivered to you. During 30-90 days period, our CUSTOMER SERVICE will keep you posted of your order’s progress. Once the product is finished and ready to be delivered to you, CUSTOMER SERVICE will email you tracking number. All products are shipped UPS ground unless otherwise instructed by Customer. All orders will be cancelled if payments are not received immediately.
At the time you place an order for a product available on pre-order terms, you will be required to pay 50% of the amount due as a deposit, exclusive of shipping fees and taxes. The remaining 50% will be charged at the time the product is shipped. Shipping fees, taxes and import duties, where applicable, will also be charged at the time the product is shipped.
We insure your purchase during its transit until it is delivered to the delivery address specified in your order. To complete the delivery, we require a signature, at which point responsibility for the purchased product(s) passes to you. If the recipient of the product is someone other than you for delivery purposes, you agree that evidence of a signature by such recipient or at such recipient’s delivery address is evidence of a completed delivery by us with responsibility for the purchased product passing to you.
We are constantly updating and revising our offerings of Products, and we may discontinue Products at any time without notice. All pricing for the Products is subject to change. All prices shown on the Site are in US Dollars, are exclusive of taxes, and may change without notice. For all of our prices and Products, we reserve the right to make adjustments due to changing market conditions, Product discontinuation, manufacturer price changes, errors in advertisements, and other extenuating circumstances. The US Dollar price of a product displayed on the Site at the time the order is accepted will be honored, except in cases of obvious error (for example, a typographical error). If you are shipping domestically, sales tax will only be charged on orders shipped to New York State and New Jersey. Depending on the tax laws in each state, you may be required to pay use tax on purchases for which sales tax has not been collected.
The quality of our merchandise and your satisfaction are our highest priority. Before we ship our customer orders, we perform a very thorough quality check on all goods coming to us from the manufactures. Occasionally, we may miss something or the item is damaged in transit. If you have received a faulty item, please notify us immediately. Items are only classified as ‘faulty’ if the fault lies with the manufacturer (please see Returns and Exchanges). Items damaged as a result of normal wear and tear are not considered to be faulty. In order to process the faulty goods return or exchange we must receive the item within 7 business days from your receipt of the item and have a chance to inspect it. For all faulty items outside of our Returns Policy, please contact support@oboralux.com.
On occasion Obora Lux issues promotional codes, site credits, and similar “gift certificates” to members and non-members in the form of alphanumeric codes which will provide a credit towards a OBORA LUX purchase when redeemed at checkout. These codes are non-transferrable, and are to be used only by the intended recipient. In particular, Obora Lux reserves the right to cancel a promotion and/or to reject redemption of a promotional code when the total value of the promotional code exceeds a certain financial value, generally the price of the item for which the promotional code is used. Multiple promotional codes may not be used for one order transaction. Where a promotion has been communicated via email, the promotional code is non-transferable and the email address provided during checkout must be the same as the email address to which the promotion was sent. Obora Lux shall not be liable to any customer for any financial loss arising out of the refusal, cancellation or withdrawal of a promotion or any failure or inability of a customer to use a promotional code for any reason.
Obora Lux may provide its members referral credits when they invite their friends to join as members (“Referral Credits”). A referring member (“Referring Members”) may be awarded a Referral Credit when a Referred Member makes their first oboralux.com purchase.
All credits expire 12 months after they are granted, and can only be used for purchases totaling at least $250 after Referral Credits and/or promotional codes are applied. Additionally, Referral Credits cannot be applied toward international or express shipping charges, duties, vintage products or pre-order products.
In order for a Referring Member to be eligible to receive a Referral Credit for friends who register at OBORA LUX and make an initial purchase, the new friends must join via the Referring Member’s unique referral link and make a purchase of $250 or more (calculated after Referral Credits and/or promotion codes are applied) within 90 days of registration. The Referring Member may be eligible to receive his or her credit once the purchased item(s) is no longer eligible for return. There is no limit to the amount of such credits that the referring member can earn.
Referral Credits will be automatically applied to your next purchase. If the total amount of your purchase exceeds the amount of your OBORA LUX credits, you must pay the balance using a credit card. If your purchase is less than your amount of Obora Lux credits, any unspent credits will remain in your account.
Referral Credits are loyalty or promotional discounts or credits offered by Obora Lux, and do not constitute an account, a payment instrument or other property owned by any OBORA LUX member. Referral Credits do not have a cash value, and you may only use Referral Credits in connection with a qualifying purchase on the OBORA LUX.COM website.
Referral Credits are granted at Obora Lux’s sole discretion. Obora Lux reserves the right to revoke your Referral Credits at its sole discretion, particularly if OBORA LUX believes that you have engaged in fraudulent referral activity (e.g. inviting fake people to join oboralux.com; using invalid and/or non-functioning email addresses) or otherwise violated our Terms and Conditions, or if we terminate your membership. Referral Credits expire 12 months after they are granted. Referral credits are not transferable or sellable. OBORA LUX reserves the right at any time without notice to you to change the terms applicable to the Referral Credits, including expiration period and/or your ability to redeem existing Referral Credits. Obora Lux does not impose any fee on your use of Referral Credits. To see your Referral Credits click here.
Returns
If you return an item that you purchased using Referral Credits, you will be refunded for the actual amount paid at the time of purchase and the Referral Credits will be reinstated to your Obora Lux account.
Occasionally there may be information on our Site that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions that may relate to product descriptions, pricing, promotions, offers, and availability.
