17. Consumer Rights for Purchases from the Samples Shop/Webshop
Right to Cancel and Return Policy
Customers having bought pre-manufactured, none-customized products have the right to cancel their order for any reason within 14 days from the day they physically receive the goods. To initiate a cancellation, customers should notify 2HEX of their decision with a clear statement. This can be done by sending an email to the address provided by 2HEX in our post-order communication, or through the contact form available on the 2HEX website.
Refund Policy
Upon cancellation and receiving back the goods, 2HEX will refund the payment received for the goods, excluding
- Delivery Charges: Due to the high costs associated with international shipping of heavy goods, the initial delivery charges are non-refundable.
- Customs Charges: Any Chinese customs charges incurred when goods are returned to China will be subtracted from the refund amount.
- Bank Charges: Bank charges associated with receiving and returning payments will also be deducted from the refund amount.
- Administration Costs: Reasonable administration costs incurred in processing the order and the subsequent cancellation will be deducted.
- Diminished Value: The customer is liable for any diminished value of the goods. This amount will be deducted from the refund.
Exclusions from the Right of Withdrawal
- Custom and Personalized Products: Products made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalized, such as custom printed decks, are not eligible for a return or refund.
- Digital Content and Services: There is no right of withdrawal for purchases of digital content or services once the delivery or access has commenced with the consumer’s prior express consent and acknowledgment of the forfeiture of their withdrawal right.
Return Costs and Procedure
The customer must bear the direct cost of returning the goods and any associated customs charges. Goods can only be returned to 2HEX's address in Guangzhou, China, which will be provided to customers upon request. Goods must be returned without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which the withdrawal from the contract is communicated to 2HEX. Payments are only reimbursed after 2HEX has received the goods — not when they are received by the carrier or any other party. The customer is liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from handling the goods.
Procedure for Exercising Rights
For initiating a return or cancellation, customers should contact 2HEX directly at the provided contact details, including order information and the reason for return or cancellation.
18. Severability
Should any provision of these Terms and Conditions be deemed invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of these Terms and Conditions, which shall remain in full force and effect. In such cases, the parties agree that the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced with a valid and enforceable provision that most closely achieves the original intent and economic effect of the invalid or unenforceable provision.
