6. Delivery Charges

As we feature such a wide range of products from around the globe, the delivery charges for each product will vary. However, our Members will ensure that is fair and reasonable and that it reflects the actual cost of delivery based on size and weight.

7. Payment

7.1 We currently accept online payment in a secure environment using PayPal. All prices quoted on our website are in British pounds sterling and, where appropriate, are inclusive of VAT.

7.2 You will be able to view the product prices and delivery charges in a number of currencies, using our handy little currency converter, but this is only an approximation based on daily exchange rate data collected by central bank and financial institutions and the actual amount paid by you and the payment currency will be as set out on the product listing.

8. Customs

8.1 For UK customers, we have specified on each listing where the Member is based outside of the EU. Please note that if you have bought an item from outside the EU, UK import duties and taxes may apply to these items upon their arrival in the UK.

8.2 Neither ruby+diva nor the Member can advise whether taxes may apply and you should check this with your local tax office before proceeding with any order.

8.3 If your delivery address is outside the UK, you should also check with your local tax office whether your delivery may be subject to your country’s import duties and taxes.

9. International Customers

9.1 As we are are selling a range of products from both small and larger designers, not all the products on our site are taxable. Where VAT (20%) is included in the price of the item, this will be  automatically deducted from the cost of the order at the checkout point if your order is to be sent outside the EU. If you are ordering from outside the EU and would like to check whether an item is taxable, please contact the relevant Member using the ‘Ask us a question’ button on their listing or, alternatively, contact us here.

9.2 However, any customs or import duties are charged once the parcel reaches its destination country. These charges must be paid by the recipient of the parcel. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies do vary widely though from country to country; so you may want to contact your local customs office for further information.

10. Returns

10.1 All refunds will be processed by ruby+diva and our Members will not make any refund directly to you.

10.2 Cancellations and returns will not be accepted in relation to the following products unless they are faulty or do not accord with the relevant  listing to which the your order relates (for example, the wrong product is supplied to you):

• Perishable goods, including food and flowers;
• Audio recordings, video recordings or software, unless the product seals are intact;
• Newspapers, periodicals or magazines;
• Personalised items made to your specification (for example, customised cake toppers make to look like you), unless the product has been produced on the basis of pre-determined options from which you have selected (for example, a product that is available in red, green, or blue, and in various sizes);
• Items that by their nature are non-returnable (such as items that it is not physically possible to return or which cannot be returned to the same physical state in which they were supplied).

10.3 For the avoidance of doubt, you may return items with hygiene seals (such as underwear) or which would not ordinarily be accepted for return on hygiene grounds (such as ear-rings for pierced ears), unless they are personalised, regardless of whether or not the hygiene seal has been removed, but please remember to wear your own lingerie when trying on knickers!
