ELIGIBILITY TO PURCHASE

The purchase of merchandise through any MULTIVERSE store is strictly limited to parties who can lawfully enter into and form contracts on the Internet in accordance with all applicable laws.

In order to make purchases on the Site you will be required to provide your Personal Information. In particular, you must provide your real name, phone number, email address and other requested information as indicated. Furthermore, you will be required to provide payment details that you represent and warrant are both valid and correct and you confirm that you are the person referred to in the Billing information provided.

The Site is available only to individuals and others who meet the MULTIVERSE terms of eligibility, who have been issued a valid credit/debit card by a bank acceptable to MULTIVERSE, and who have authorized MULTIVERSE to process a charge or charges on their credit/debit card in the amount of the total purchase price for the merchandise which they purchase. MULTIVERSE reserves the right to restrict multiple quantities of an item being shipped to any one customer or postal address.

By making an offer to purchase merchandise, you expressly authorized us to perform credit checks and, where MULTIVERSE feels necessary, to transmit or to obtain your credit card information or credit report information (including any updated information) to or from third parties solely to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit/debit card, to obtain an initial credit card authorization and/or to authorize individual purchase transactions.

Furthermore, you agree that we may use Personal Information provided by you in order to conduct appropriate anti-fraud checks. Personal Information that you provide may be disclosed to a credit reference or fraud prevention agency, which may keep a record of that information. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for further information about how we use your data.

ORDERS

All orders are subject to acceptance and availability, and items in your shopping cart are not reserved and may be purchased by other customers, until your order is completed and payment for your order has been received by MULTIVERSE.

MULTIVERSE offers products for sale that are in stock and available for dispatch from one of our distribution centers. Occasionally however, we may be waiting for shipments from our suppliers. Consequently you may from time to time be given the possibility of making an Advance Payment for certain items in which case you are able to make an Advance Purchase. This will ensure that you receive this item in priority once stock has been delivered to MULTIVERSE. MULTIVERSE will only take Advance Purchase orders for stock that has been scheduled for delivery by a supplier. Your rights regarding Advance Purchase are the same as those for any other purchase at MULTIVERSE. Alternatively, you may simply choose to register your email address for notification of arrival of the selected merchandise not held in stock.

Items received into stock may be pre-allocated to satisfy Advance Payment orders and customers making Advance Payments will receive items in priority to customers on the Waiting List or customers ordering through the Site for immediate delivery. Please be aware that we may be unable to deliver selected Advance Payment merchandise due to production problems or quality check issues identified when we receive an order into stock. In these circumstances we will notify you by email and refund the Advance Payment to your credit/debit card within thirty days of being advised that merchandise has become unavailable.

If you have registered your email address for notification of the arrival of a specific product featured on our Site, we will attempt to notify you by email within 48 hours of the product becoming available on the Site. Please note that on occasion certain products that are in particularly high demand will sell out during this period.

MULTIVERSE will store a record of your transactions for a minimum of one year.

PRICING POLICY

Prices shown on the Site are in US Dollars and are exclusive of taxes. If you are shipping within the USA, sales tax will only be charged on orders shipped to Florida where applicable. Federal excise tax will be applied to orders shipped within the USA. All prices and offers remain valid as advertised from time to time. 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 patent error.

All international orders are fulfilled DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid). As a result, customers purchasing from a foreign country will not incur relevant import duty and tax during their purchase from MULTIVERSE, but will be charged only for the items purchased, any applicable U.S. taxes, and shipping costs. When purchasing for delivery to a foreign country, any import duty or tax costs may be invoiced to you directly from the shipping carrier or an import broker appointed by you. We recommend you contact your local customs authority to determine a landed cost price prior to purchase completion.

If you are a customer whose credit/debit card, or other payment instrument accepted by MULTIVERSE, is not denominated in US Dollars, the final price will be calculated in accordance with the applicable exchange rate on the day your card issuer processes the transaction.

ACCEPTANCE OF YOUR ORDER

Once you have made your choice and your order has been placed, you will receive an email acknowledging the details of your order. This email is NOT an acceptance of your order, just a confirmation that we have received it.

Unless you cancel your order, acceptance of your order will be perfected upon completion of the packing of your order. Completion of the contract between you and MULTIVERSE will be perfected when we dispatch the goods to you at which time you will receive a second email containing you tracking number, and confirming that your order has been dispatched. The sale contract is therefore concluded in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, USA, and the language of the contract is English.

We reserve the right not to accept your order in the event, for example, that we are unable to obtain authorization for payment, that shipping restrictions apply to a particular item, that the item ordered is out of stock or does not satisfy our quality control standards and is withdrawn, or that you do not meet the eligibility criteria set-out within the TOS.

Furthermore, we may refuse to process a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of our withdrawing any merchandise from the Site whether or not that merchandise has been sold, removing, screening or editing any materials or content on the Site, refusing to process a transaction or unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

PAYMENT

Payment can be made by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, and any other methods which may be clearly advertised on the site from time to time. Payment will be debited and cleared from your account upon completion of the packing of your order by MULTIVERSE. You confirm that the credit/debit card that is being used is yours or that you have been specifically authorized by the owner of the credit/debit card to use it. All credit/debit card holders are subject to validation checks and authorization by the card issuer. If the issuer of your credit/debit card refuses to authorize payment to MULTIVERSE, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

Occasionally, high demand causes us to run out of certain items. If we don't have an item that you have ordered in stock, we will notify you by email immediately. Sometimes, an item is out of stock and not expected to come back in stock, so we must cancel the item. In this case, if you paid with a credit/debit card, we will not charge you for the item or any taxes, shipping or handling fees.

We take reasonable care to make our Site secure. All credit/debit card transactions on this site are processed using Payline, a secure online payment gateway that encrypts your card details in a secure host environment. Even if you are a registered MULTIVERSE user, we will never store your credit/debit card details on our systems. These details are fully encrypted and only used to process card transactions which you have initiated. To help ensure that your shopping experience is safe, simple and secure, MULTIVERSE uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.

Furthermore, we take reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order and payment secure, but in the absence of gross negligence on our part we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorized access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the Site.
