Please note that the amount of the reduction could be equal to the full amount of the price if we are unable to sell the returned products because they do not meet our high standards of sale. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.

6.13.1 You tell us in writing within 24 hours of the actual delivery date in the case of damage and within 24 hours of the delivery date notified to you when you placed your order in the case of lost items (this is so that we will be able to meet our carrier's conditions of carriage);

7.2 Within 30 days after the date of delivery, you may exchange the items in question by using one of the two methods below except in the case of perfume products where the exchange may only be made as described in Condition 7.2.2. Please note that products must be returned in their original packaging, complete with any related accessories or instruction booklets, labels, protective covers and boxes, together with the original invoice and the Return Voucher. In the case of perfume products which have been sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, the seal covering the perfume box must not have been broken. You may:
7.2.1 use our complimentary collection service as described in Condition 9.3.1, but please note that no new delivery can take place until we have received the returned products from you;
7.2.2 exchange your products within our stores in Belgium or abroad (Airport locations excluded as well as in Turkey, Brazil, China, Columbia, India, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Lebanon, Mexico, Mongolia, Dominican Republic, Russia, Thailand, Vietnam and Taiwan. Special regulations apply in Korea) except that perfume products may be exchanged within our stores in Belgium only
7.3 We will not accept products for exchange that are returned incomplete, damaged or soiled or without the original packaging, related accessories or instruction booklets, labels, protective covers and boxes or in the case of perfume products which have been sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, where the seal covering the perfume box has been broken. You must take reasonable care of products if you wish to exchange them. For shoes in particular, we recommend that you try your Louis Vuitton shoes on a clean floor which will not alter the sole, such as a carpeted surface. For swimwear, Louis Vuitton requires that swimsuits be handled with care and tried on top of clean underwear, keeping the sanitary protection label on the swimsuit.
7.4 Where products are exchanged, we will end the original contract and your payment will be applied to the sale for the new items. If the new sale is for a higher price, you must pay the difference in store or as described in Condition 5. We will not be able to provide the replacement products until we have received payment from you. If the new sale is for a lower price, we will refund you for the difference (but not for any delivery charges) by the method you used for payment.
7.5 If products are exchanged using our collection and delivery service, the new sale will be subject to these terms.
7.6 Please note that you may not exchange products which you have received as a result of a prior exchange, but this does not affect your other legal rights as described in Condition 8.
8 Your rights to end the contract
8.1 Ending your contract with us. You may end your contract with us in the circumstances described below. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:
8.1.1 If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or a service re-performed or to get some or all of your money back), see Condition 11;
8.1.2 If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see Condition 8.2;

8.2 Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at Conditions 8.2.1 to 8.2.3 below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
8.2.1 we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
8.2.2 there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
8.2.3 you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong (including because we have delivered late, see Condition 6.11).
8.3 Exercising your right to change your mind. For most products bought online or over the phone you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund without having to justify reasons and without having to pay penalties (the only products which do not imply such a withdrawal right are set out at Conditions 8.4). However, to ensure extra satisfaction of our customers, we allow you to withdraw within thirty (30) days from the date of delivery of your order, without having to justify reasons and without having to pay penalties.
8.4 When you don't have the right to change your mind. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of:
8.4.1 Personalised Products;
8.4.2 Perfume or other products sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you receive them. In the case or perfume products the seal on the crystal film covering the perfume box must not have been broken.
8.5 How long do I have to change my mind? You have 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the products, unless your products are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receive the last delivery to change your mind about the products.
9 How to end the contract with us (including if you have changed your mind)
9.1 Tell us you want to end the contract. To end the contract with us, please let us know by doing one of the following:

9.2 Gifts. If you use our Gift Service, only you may end the contract with us and not the recipient of the gift.
9.3 Returning products after ending the contract:
9.3.1 If you end the contract for any reason after products have been dispatched to you or you have received them, we provide a complimentary collection service and you must allow us to collect the item(s) you wish to return from your preferred address in Belgium. Please call our Client Service team or email us to arrange collection.
9.3.2 You may request a return via your MyLV Account. First, register your return in the My Orders tab of your MyLV account. Place the item(s) in the original shipping box or any other suitable box, cover the original address label with the enclosed pre-paid return label, securely seal your parcel using the adhesive strip on the inside of the original box, and drop your parcel off at any UPS store or pick-up location in Belgium.
To ensure our prompt processing of your return and the security of our products while in transit, we strongly advise you to use our complimentary return options described above. However, if you cannot or do not wish to benefit from our free return services, you may decide to return the product through the carrier of your choice, at your own expense and under your sole responsibility, at the following address:
EUROPA
6/8 Rue du Petit Albi
95 804 CERGY
FRANCE
In this regard, we remind you that orders sent back from a destination that is different from the country in which they were delivered may incur additional charges for you or be delayed by customs.
9.3.3 You must return the products in their original packaging, complete with all related accessories, instruction booklets, labels, protective covers and boxes, together with the duly completed “Return Voucher” and the original invoice. In the case of perfume products which have been sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, the seal on the crystal film covering the perfume box must not have been broken.
9.3.4 If you are exercising your right to change your mind by way of our complimentary collection service or pre-paid return label service described above. In all other circumstances you must pay the costs of return.
9.4 When we will pay the costs of return. We will pay the costs of return:
9.4.1 if the products are faulty or misdescribed;
9.4.2 if you are ending the contract because we have told you of an error in pricing or description, a delay in delivery due to events outside our control or because you have a legal right to do so as a result of something we have done wrong; or
9.4.3 if you are exercising your right to change your mind by way of our complimentary collection service.
In all other circumstances you must pay the costs of return.
9.5 How we will refund you. We will refund you the price you paid for the products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.
9.6 Deductions from refunds if you are exercising your right to change your mind. If you are exercising your right to change your mind:
9.6.1 We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the products, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. For shoes in particular, we highly recommend that you try your Louis Vuitton shoes on a clean floor which would not alter the sole, such as a carpeted surface. For swimwear Louis Vuitton requires that swimsuits be handled with care and tried on top of clean underwear, keeping the sanitary protection label on the swimsuit. Please note that the amount of the reduction could be equal to the full amount of the price if we are unable to sell the returned products because they do not meet our high standards of sale. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
9.6.2 As standard delivery is complimentary, we will not refund delivery costs if you choose to have the product delivered by Express or Premium delivery.
9.7 When your refund will be made. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind, your refund will be made within 14 days of you telling us you have changed your mind, except that we may withhold refund if you did not permit collection of the Goods as required under these Conditions within a reasonable time after notifying us of your decision to cancel the Contract, or until you show us evidence you have dispatched the goods in case you decided not to use our collection service.
10 Our rights to end the contract
10.1 We may end the contract if you break it. We may end the contract for a product at any time by writing to you if:
10.1.1 you do not make any payment to us when it is due;
10.1.2 you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the products to you or collect them from us.
10.2 You must compensate us if you break the contract. If we end the contract in the situations set out in Condition 10.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for products we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of you breaking the contract. As an exception to the previous sentence, when Personalised Products are concerned, if we end the contract in the situations set out in Condition 10.1.2, we will keep the money you have paid in advance to buy the said Personalised Product as we will be unable to put it back to sale because of its personalised character.
11 If there is a problem with the product
11.1 How to tell us about problems. If you have any questions or complaints about the product, please contact us. You can telephone our Client Service Team or email us using the EMAIL US contact form in the Client Service section of our Website.
11.2 Your legal rights. We are under a legal duty to supply products that are in conformity with this contract. Nothing in these terms will affect your legal rights.
11.3 Your obligation to return rejected products. If you wish to exercise your legal rights to reject products you must allow us to collect them from you. We will pay the costs of collection. Please call our Client Service Team or email us using the EMAIL US contact form in the Client Service section of our Website to arrange collection.
12 Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
12.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products; and for defective products under Article 1641 and following of the Belgian Civil Code.
12.3 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
13 Other important terms
13.1 Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
13.2 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
13.3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
13.4 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by Belgian law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the Belgian courts.
13.5 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you can submit a complaint for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform, and in particular before the Belgian Service for Consumer Mediation located at North Gate II, Boulevard du Roi Albert II 8, mailbox 1, 1000 Brussels (e-mail: contact@mediationconsommateur.be).

This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product, because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified, or if the order is considered to be fraudulent or otherwise made in breach of these Terms of Sale. In such case, you will be notified in Writing and we will not charge you for the product(s).

For swimwear Louis Vuitton requires that swimsuits be handled with care and tried on top of clean underwear, keeping the sanitary protection label on the swimsuit. Please note that the amount of the reduction could be equal to the full amount of the price if we are unable to sell the returned products because they do not meet our high standards of sale. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.

12 Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

13.1 Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
13.2 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
13.3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
13.4 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by Irish law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the Irish courts.

Please note that the amount of the reduction could be equal to the full amount of the price if we are unable to sell the returned products because they do not meet our high standards of sale. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.

10.1.2 you do not, within a month, allow us to deliver the products to you or collect them from us.
10.2 You must compensate us if you break the contract. If we end the contract in the situations set out in Condition 10.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for products we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract.

12 Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
12.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products; and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
12.3 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
13 Other important terms
13.1 Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
13.2 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
13.3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
13.4 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by Monaco law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in front of the Monegasque courts.

7.2 Within 30 days after the date of delivery, you may exchange the items in question by using one of the two methods below except in the case of perfume products where the exchange may only be made as described in Condition 7.2.2. Please note that products must be returned in their original packaging, complete with any related accessories or instruction booklets, labels, protective covers and boxes, together with the original invoice and the Return Voucher. In the case of perfume products which have been sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, the seal covering the perfume box must not have been broken. You may:
7.2.1 use our complimentary collection service as described in Condition 9.3.1, but please note that no new delivery can take place until we have received the returned products from you;

You must take reasonable care of products if you wish to exchange them. For shoes in particular, we recommend that you try your Louis Vuitton shoes on a clean floor which will not alter the sole, such as a carpeted surface. For swimwear, Louis Vuitton requires that swimsuits be handled with care and tried on top of clean underwear, keeping the sanitary protection label on the swimsuit.
7.4 Where products are exchanged, we will end the original contract and your payment will be applied to the sale for the new items. If the new sale is for a higher price, you must pay the difference in store or as described in Condition 5.

If the new sale is for a lower price, we will refund you for the difference (but not for any delivery charges) by the method you used for payment.
7.5 If products are exchanged using our collection and delivery service, the new sale will be subject to these terms.
7.6 Please note that you may not exchange products which you have received as a result of a prior exchange, but this does not affect your legal rights.

For swimwear Louis Vuitton requires that swimsuits be handled with care and tried on top of clean underwear, keeping the sanitary protection label on the swimsuit. Please note that the amount of the reduction could be equal to the full amount of the price if we are unable to sell the returned products because they do not meet our high standards of sale. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
9.6.2 As standard delivery is complimentary, we will not refund delivery costs if you choose to have the product delivered by Express or Premium delivery.
9.7 When your refund will be made. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible.

12 Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
12.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products; and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 38/1978.
12.3 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
13 Other important terms
13.1 Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
13.2 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
13.3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
13.4 We reserve the right to change these terms at any time. All amendments to these terms will be posted on our Website. The terms in force at the time of placing the order apply to the contract.
13.5 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by Finnish law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the Finnish courts.
13.6 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you can contact the consumer rights advisors at a Local Register Office (www.kkv.fi/kuluttajaneuvonta) after which you may bring the matter before the Consumer Disputes Board (www.kuluttajariita.fi). You may also submit a complaint for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform (http://ec.europa.eu/odr).

4.6 Your account with us: When placing an order for the first time, you may either check in as a guest or open an account with us. If you place a telephone order we will take the necessary details from you by telephone. Otherwise, all steps necessary for placing an order are detailed on our Website.
4.7 Order acknowledgement. We will acknowledge receipt of your order without delay by sending a confirmation email, but this confirmation email does not constitute acceptance of your order even if you may be debited of all or part of the price of the products(s) immediately after we receive your order, including for the purposes of allowing us to carry out the security measures as set out in Condition 5.8.
4.8 How we will accept your order. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you and tell you we have accepted it, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.
4.9 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this in writing. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product, because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified, or if the order is considered to be fraudulent or otherwise made in breach of these terms. In such case, you will be notified in writing and we will not charge you for the product(s).
4.10 Your order number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.
5 Price and payment
5.1 Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product in euros (€) which includes VAT (and, except where otherwise stated on our Website or notified to you by telephone, delivery costs) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see Condition 11.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
5.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
5.3 We will not provide VAT-refund services. We do not provide VAT-refund service for orders placed on our Website or by telephone.
5.4 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite taking all reasonable care, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order at the correct price. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any products provided to you.
5.5 How you must pay. We accept payment by credit card (Visa, MasterCard and American Express) issued by banks domiciled in Euro zone, PayPal, Sofort Bankontact, or Ideal, or other payment methods as they become available from time to time by notice on our Website.

We will inform you by email once the Products have been dispatched.

5.8 Security measures.
5.8.1 Payments through our Website are managed on-line with the relevant banking organisations through facilities offered by CyberSource Corporation, a third party based in the USA which enables us to accept and manage payments, mitigate fraud, and secure payment data. Your personal information including your name, email address, delivery details, telephone number, details of the order placed and credit card or other payment details will be disclosed and used by CyberSource Corporation exclusively for the purposes of providing fraud screening services to us and to its own customers, as further detailed in our Privacy Policy. If you do not wish your personal information to be disclosed and used in this way, we will be unable to supply products to you. We reserve the right to put in place additional/other payment security system(s) from time to time.
5.8.2 To ensure that your credit, debit or charge card is not being used without your consent, we will validate the name, address and other personal information supplied by you during the order process against appropriate third party databases. In performing these checks, personal information provided by you may be disclosed to a registered Credit Reference Agency which may keep a record of that information. You can rest assured that this is done only to confirm your identity, that a credit check is not performed and that your credit rating will be unaffected.
5.8.3 If an order placed by you is considered to be fraudulent or otherwise made in breach of this Terms, the sale will be cancelled immediately, and in the event that any sums have already been debited to you, they will be refunded within 14 business days after such notification.

For swimwear Louis Vuitton requires that swimsuits be handled with care and tried on top of clean underwear, keeping the sanitary protection label on the swimsuit. Please note that the amount of the reduction could be equal to the full amount of the price if we are unable to sell the returned products because they do not meet our high standards of sale. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
9.6.2 As standard delivery is complimentary, we will not refund delivery costs if you choose to have the product delivered by Express or Premium delivery.
9.7 When your refund will be made. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind, except that we may withhold refund if you did not permit collection of the Goods as required under these Conditions within a reasonable time after notifying us of your decision to cancel the Contract, or until you show us evidence you have dispatched the goods in case you decided not to use our collection service.

10.1.2 you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the products to you or collect them from us.
10.2 You must compensate us if you break the contract. If we end the contract in the situations set out in Condition 10.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for products we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract.

12 Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
12.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products; and for defective products under the Law of 21 April 1989 concerning civil liability for defective products.
12.3 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
13 Other important terms
13.1 Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
13.2 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
13.3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
13.4 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by Luxembourg law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the courts of Luxembourg.
13.5 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you can submit a complaint for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

In such case, you will be notified in Writing and we will not charge you for the product(s).

For swimwear Louis Vuitton requires that swimsuits be handled with care and tried on top of clean underwear, keeping the sanitary protection label on the swimsuit. Please note that the amount of the reduction could be equal to the full amount of the price if we are unable to sell the returned products because they do not meet our high standards of sale. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
9.6.2 As standard delivery is complimentary, we will not refund delivery costs if you choose to have the product delivered by Express or Premium delivery.
9.7 When your refund will be made. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind, except that we may withhold refund if you did not permit collection of the Goods as required under these Conditions within a reasonable time after notifying us of your decision to cancel the Contract, or until you show us evidence you have dispatched the goods in case you decided not to use our collection service.

10.1.2 you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the products to you or collect them from us.
10.2 You must compensate us if you break the contract. If we end the contract in the situations set out in Condition 10.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for products we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract.
11 If there is a problem with the product

12 Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
12.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products; and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
12.3 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
13 Other important terms
13.1 Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
13.2 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
13.3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
13.4 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by Dutch law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the courts of Netherlands.
13.5 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you can submit a complaint for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform.

If you place a telephone order we will take the necessary details from you by telephone. Otherwise, all steps necessary for placing an order are detailed on our Website.
4.7 Order acknowledgement. We will acknowledge receipt of your order without delay by sending a confirmation email, but this confirmation email does not constitute acceptance of your order.

4.9 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this in writing. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product, because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified, or if the order is considered to be fraudulent or otherwise made in breach of these Terms of Sale. In such case, you will be notified in Writing and we will not charge you for the product(s).

The price of the product in Swedish Kronor (SEK) which includes VAT (and, except where otherwise stated on our Website or notified to you by telephone, delivery costs) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. The price for VAT will also be specified in the order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see Conditions 5.4 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
5.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

5.4 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite taking all reasonable care, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order at the correct price. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any products provided to you.

You can rest assured that this is done only to confirm your identity, that a credit check is not performed and that your credit rating will be unaffected.
5.8.3 If an order placed by you is considered to be made in breach of this Terms of Sale, e.g. because it is considered to be fraudulent, the order will not be confirmed, and in the event that any sums have already been debited to you, they will be refunded within 14 business days after such notification.

9.6 Deductions from refunds if you are exercising your right to change your mind. If you are exercising your right to change your mind:
9.6.1 We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the products, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.

For swimwear Louis Vuitton requires that swimsuits be handled with care and tried on top of clean underwear, keeping the sanitary protection label on the swimsuit. Please note that the amount of the reduction could be equal to the full amount of the price if we are unable to sell the returned products because they do not meet our high standards of sale. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
9.6.2 As standard delivery is complimentary, we will not refund delivery costs if you choose to have the product delivered by Express or Premium delivery.
9.7 When your refund will be made. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind, except that we may withhold refund if you did not permit collection of the Goods as required under these Conditions within a reasonable time after notifying us of your decision to cancel the Contract, or until you show us evidence you have dispatched the goods in case you decided not to use our collection service.
10 Our rights to end the contract
10.1 We may end the contract if you break it. We may end the contract for a product at any time by writing to you if:

10.1.2 you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the products to you or collect them from us.
10.2 You must compensate us if you break the contract. If we end the contract in the situations set out in Condition 10.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for products we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract.
11 If there is a problem with the product

Please call our Client Service Team or email us using the EMAIL US contact form in the Client Service section of our Website to arrange collection.
12 Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable unless the law provides otherwise. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
12.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products; and for defective products under the Product Liability Act (1992:18) and the Consumer Sales Act (1990:932).
12.3 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
13 Other important terms
13.1 Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
13.2 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
13.3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
13.4 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by Swedish law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the Swedish courts.
13.5 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you can submit a complaint for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform by using this link http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.

If you place a telephone order we will take the necessary details from you by telephone. Otherwise, all steps necessary for placing an order are detailed on our Website.

This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product, because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified, or if the order is considered to be fraudulent or otherwise made in breach of these Terms of Sale. In such case, you will be notified in Writing and we will not charge you for the product(s).

The price of the product in Danish Krone (DKK) which includes VAT (and, except where otherwise stated on our Website or notified to you by telephone, delivery costs) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see Condition 5.4 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
5.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order at the correct price. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any products provided to you.

12 Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

13.3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
13.4 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by Danish law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the Danish courts.
