Victorian Bathrooms may from time to time make physical or electronic promotional coupons or discounts (“Coupons”) available for use on the Website. Coupons can only be redeemed while they are valid and their expiry dates cannot be extended. More specifically:

• There are two types of Coupons; a Coupon with a fixed amount of a discount, e.g. R100 off (“Fixed Coupon“), and a Coupon with a percentage discount, e.g. 10% off (“Percentage Coupon“).
• Coupons are issued in Victorian Bathrooms’ sole discretion and we are entitled at any time to correct, cancel or reject a Coupon for any reason (including without limitation where a Coupon has been distributed in an unauthorised manner). Users do not have a right to Coupons, and Coupons cannot be earned. Coupons are issued under specific terms and conditions regulating when and how they may be used.
• As a general rule, and unless specified otherwise on the specific Coupon itself:

–  each Coupon can only be used once;

–  only one Coupon can be used per order;

–  only one Coupon can be used on the Website per person per promotion/campaign;

–  Trade Coupons may not be used on sale, promotional and body/room fragrance products;

–  the value of the Coupon will be set off against the value of your shopping basket and the balance remaining, if any, will be payable by you.

• Coupons cannot be exchanged or refunded for cash or credit. Victorian Bathrooms is not responsible for any harm due to the loss, unauthorised use or distribution of a Coupon.
• If for any reason a Coupon does not reflect on the final amount due from you at check-out, you can contact us to confirm if the Coupon is still valid. If we confirm that the Coupon is still valid and you have already placed your order, you can choose whether to cancel the order and place it again with the Coupon, or you can use the Coupon on your next order within the limitations of the specific Coupon’s terms and conditions.
• You may be required to submit the original communication containing the Coupon code, and any other information reasonably requested by us, before you are able to use a Coupon.

11. DATA PROTECTION

Please see our Privacy Policy and Cookie Notice, which forms part of the General Terms and Conditions.

12. GENERAL

• This Site is hosted and operated within the borders of South Africa and is thereby governed by South African law and both parties submits to the jurisdiction of the South African courts.
• You may not cede or transfer your rights and obligations in terms of these Terms and Conditions to any third party and any failure on the part of the buyer or seller to enforce any right in terms hereof shall not constitute a waiver of that right.
• Should any term or condition contained herein is declared invalid, the remaining terms and conditions will remain in full force and effect.
• No variation, addition, deletion, or agreed cancellation of the Terms and Conditions will be of any effect unless in writing and accepted by the parties hereto.

13. SPECIAL ORDERS/FINISHES

• Special orders incur lead times of between 6 – 12 weeks from date of order depending on the particular product, finish and the supplier. Where possible we have included the relevant delivery time with each product on the website. Should there be delays, you will be informed.
• We highly recommend that your orders with special finishes are placed separately to standard stocked ware so as not to delay what is immediately available for despatch.
• Products which are especially refinished or manufactured for your requirements may not be returned, exchanged or refunded unless there is a manufacturing fault.
• Bespoke finishes are ‘living finishes’ that develop a natural patina over time, changing as they react with the environment. A natural aging process will occur organically on these hand crafted products offering certain appeal and charm, each engineered by hand making them unique and individual to every order. It is therefore important to note that no two items will be identical and each will age in their own way.
• Consideration must be taken when ordering that the item you receive may not be identical to what was seen online or on our printed documentation as each item is unique and computer pixels/print resolutions differ.
