Order Processing

Such agreement shall incorporate the minimum terms set out below and such other lawful and non-conflicting terms as may be set out in Supplier’s Supplier Profile at the time of the Retailer Order.

Return Policy may be for exchange or full refund, as provided for in accordance with the return policy set out in the Supplier Profile. The selected return policy is binding on Supplier, Supplier must provide a clear return mechanism to End Customers that complies with the selected return policy. An End Customer may return an item that is undamaged, unworn, and unused with tags still attached in accordance with the terms of such return policy. Supplier must provide a return/refund policy for any damaged or defective items as long as any claims are placed within the agreed upon 5 days of the item being received. Supplier authorizes Spocket to grant such remedy as may be provided for under the applicable return policy on behalf of Supplier, where any cost incurred by Spocket may be charged to Supplier by Spocket and may, without limiting any other right of Spocket, be offset against any other amount owing by Spocket to Supplier.

4.5. Point of shipment. Supplier packages should ship from the location Supplier has listed on the applicable Product. If Supplier’s listing states that the Products will be shipped from the United States, then it has to be shipped from the USA location.
