How To Place An Order
Once you have selected one of our Items in the store section of Plainandsimple.com, you have to select the size, colour and enter the quantity that you wish to order. The selected Item(s) can then be transferred to your shopping cart by clicking on the "add to my cart" button. You can either add more Items to you cart or proceed to the checkout by clicking on the "checkout" button located at the upper right corner of the page. You must then enter your shipping address and contact information as well as the shipping method of your choice. At this stage you can still remove or edit any Items stored in your shopping cart. If different from the shipping address you can enter your billing address by ticking "Use a different billing address" button. At this stage you can still remove or edit any Items stored in your shopping cart. The next page allows you to enter your payment information and check the order total. On this same page you can still edit your shipping and/or billing address, change the shipping method, or remove or edit the Items in your shopping cart. Your order will be submitted at the time you press the "Place Order" button.
After placing an order, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to purchase the Items that you have selected on the basis of these terms and conditions. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an email that confirms that the Items have been dispatched (the "Order Shipping Confirmation"). The contract between you and us will only be formed when we send you the Order Shipping Confirmation (the "Contract").
The Contract will only relate to those Items whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Order Shipping Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Items which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such Items has been confirmed in a separate Order Shipping Confirmation.
Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Order Shipping Confirmation, or if no date is specified, then within 30 days of the date of the Order Shipping Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.

Applicable laws require that some of the information or communications we send to you should be in writing.

Transfer Of Rights And Obligations
These terms and conditions are binding on you and us and on our respective successors and assigns. You may not transfer, assign, charge or otherwise dispose of a Contract or any of your rights or obligations arising under it, without our prior written consent. We may transfer, assign, charge, sub-contract or otherwise dispose of a Contract, or any of our rights or obligations arising under it, at any time during the term of the Contract.
Password
Registration as a user for access to certain areas on Plainandsimple.com or in connection with recurring visits or purchasing may require both a user name and a password or adherence to other particular access requirements as designated by us. Only one user can use one user name and password and, thus, one account. By limiting access, it helps avoid unauthorised usage by other persons, institutions, or entities because anyone with knowledge of both your user name and password can gain entry to the restricted portions of Plainandsimple.com and to your account.
Accordingly, by using Plainandsimple.com, you agree to consider your user name and password as confidential information and to keep your user name and password confidential. You will immediately notify us if you become aware of any loss or theft of your password or any unauthorised use of your user name and password. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these obligations. We reserve the right to delete or change a user name or password at any time and for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall convey to you any further rights in your account or its information and any and all such content or information shall be subject to these terms and conditions.
Events Outside Our Control
We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations under these terms and conditions that are caused by events outside our reasonable control ("Force Majeure Event").
A Force Majeure Event includes any act, event, non-happening, omission or accident beyond our reasonable control and includes in particular (without limitation) the following: strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, impossibility of the use of railways, shipping, aircraft, motor transport or other means of public or private transport, impossibility of the use of public or private telecommunications networks, and the acts, decrees, legislation, regulations or restrictions of any government.
Our performance of our obligations under these terms and conditions is deemed to be suspended for the period that the Force Majeure Event continues, and we will have an extension of time for performance for the duration of that period. We will use our reasonable endeavours to bring the Force Majeure Event to a close or to find a solution by which our obligations under the Contract may be performed despite the Force Majeure Event.
Waiver
If we fail, at any time during the term of a Contract, to insist upon strict performance of any of your obligations under these terms and conditions, or if we fail to exercise any of the rights or remedies to which we are entitled under these terms and conditions, this shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies and shall not relieve you from compliance with such obligations. A waiver by us of any default shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default. No waiver by us of any of these terms and conditions shall be effective unless it is expressly stated to be a waiver and is communicated to you in writing in accordance with the methods specified above.
Severability
If any of these terms and conditions or any provisions of these terms and conditions are determined by any competent authority to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, such term, condition or provision will to that extent be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Entire Agreement
These terms and conditions and any document expressly referred to in them represent the entire agreement between us in relation to the supply of Items from Plainandsimple.com and supersede any prior agreement, understanding or arrangement between us, whether oral or in writing. We each acknowledge that in agreeing to be bound by these terms and conditions, neither of us has relied on any representation, undertaking or promise given by the other or from anything said or written in negotiations between us prior to such agreement except as expressly stated in these terms and conditions. Neither of us shall have any remedy in respect of any untrue statement made by the other, whether orally or in writing, prior to the date of any order (unless such untrue statement was made fraudulently) and the other party’s only remedy shall be for breach of contract as provided in these terms and conditions.
Terms Of Use And Terms And Conditions Of Sale
