- You will use the Website only for lawful purposes; and
- If you are purchasing on behalf of a company or organization, you have authority to bind that company or organization to these Terms.
We reserve the right to refuse service, restrict account access, cancel orders, or terminate accounts where reasonably necessary to prevent fraud, abuse, unlawful activity, or violations of these Terms.
3. Customer Accounts
Certain Website features may require you to create an account.
You are responsible for:
- Providing accurate account information;
- Maintaining the confidentiality of your username and password;
- Restricting unauthorized access to your account; and
- Promptly notifying us if you believe your account has been compromised.
You are responsible for orders placed through your account unless you promptly notify us of suspected unauthorized access.

4. Product Information
We make reasonable efforts to provide accurate product information, including descriptions, colors, sizes, specifications, materials, images, inventory information, and pricing.
However, product information may originate from manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, or other third parties.
Actual products may vary slightly from Website photographs or descriptions because of:
- Manufacturer production changes;
- Fabric or material variations;
- Dye-lot variations;
- Monitor or screen settings;
- Product revisions;
- Manufacturer substitutions or updates; or
- Photography and lighting.
Colors displayed electronically are provided for reference and cannot be guaranteed to exactly match the physical product.
Customers requiring an exact color, fabric, fit, or specification should consider ordering a sample before placing a large order or decorating merchandise.
5. Product Availability
All products are subject to availability.
Inventory displayed on the Website may change rapidly and does not constitute a guarantee that a particular item, color, or size will remain available until the order has been processed.
Inventory may be supplied through multiple warehouses, manufacturers, distributors, or fulfillment partners.
If an ordered item becomes unavailable, we may, as appropriate:
- Remove the unavailable item from the order;
- Cancel the affected item;
- Contact you regarding available alternatives; or
- Issue a refund for the unavailable item.
We are not responsible for losses resulting from manufacturer discontinuations, inventory changes, or products becoming unavailable before fulfillment.
6. Pricing
All prices displayed on the Website are in U.S. Dollars (USD) unless otherwise stated.
Prices may change without prior notice.
The price applicable to an order is generally the price displayed and accepted at the time the order is submitted, subject to correction of obvious errors.
Wholesale, quantity, promotional, clearance, closeout, or other discounts may be subject to additional requirements.
7. Pricing and Website Errors
Although we make reasonable efforts to maintain accurate information, errors may occasionally occur.
Examples include:

We reserve the right to correct errors and cancel or modify an affected order before shipment.
If an order is canceled after payment because of a material pricing or Website error, the amount charged for the canceled item or order will be refunded.
An obvious pricing or technical error does not obligate us to sell a product at an unintended price.
8. Order Acceptance
Submitting an order does not automatically mean that we have accepted it.
After an order is submitted, you may receive an electronic confirmation acknowledging receipt of the order. This acknowledgment does not necessarily constitute final acceptance.
We reserve the right to review, accept, decline, place on hold, or cancel an order for legitimate business reasons, including:
- Product unavailability;
- Pricing errors;
- Payment authorization problems;
- Suspected fraud;

Orders may begin processing shortly after they are submitted.
Once an order has entered processing, fulfillment, or shipment, we may be unable to change or cancel it.
Customers requesting an order change or cancellation should contact Customer Service as quickly as possible.
A request to cancel an order does not guarantee that cancellation will be possible.
If merchandise has already shipped, the applicable Return / Refund Policy will govern any requested return.

Applicable sales tax may be collected based on the shipping destination, applicable law, and the tax information available to us.
Customers claiming a resale or other tax exemption are responsible for providing valid exemption documentation where required.
Until valid exemption documentation has been received, verified, and applied to the customer's account, applicable sales tax may be charged.
Customers remain responsible for any tax obligations imposed by applicable law.
