Please review the Conditions and make sure that you understand them before you place an order. Note that we have different conditions for different countries/regions. It is therefore important that you make sure that you are on the correct website by choosing your flag/shipping country in the country selector, as you might otherwise read conditions that are not applicable for your specific country/region.

We reserve the right to change these Conditions at any time without prior notice. The Conditions available on the Website at the time of your order, is the version applicable to your order.

In order to place an order you must be over 18 years of age and possess a valid credit or debit card issued by a bank acceptable to us.

Please note that all orders are subject to availability and that the inclusion of any products on the Website at a specific time does not mean that these products will be available at any time.

OUR CONTRACT

When you have placed an order, you will receive an e-mail confirming your order. Please note that this email will be an acknowledgement only and will not constitute acceptance of your order. A contract will be formed when we send you an e-mail confirming that the products have been dispatched. Only those products listed in the confirmation e-mail sent at the time of dispatch will be included in our contract. If we have already received payment for non-available products, we will refund the applicable amount using the same method used to make the payment.

The prices stated on the Website include Value Added Tax (VAT) and are final prices. Please note that the prices do not include delivery costs, which are charged separately.

Whilst we try and ensure that all details, descriptions and prices that appear on this Website are accurate, errors may occur. If we discover an error in the price of any goods which you have ordered we will inform you of this as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact you we will treat the order as cancelled.

Happy Socks is not responsible for any changes in currency or conversion rates that your bank or credit card company may use when charging in your country’s currency.

PAYMENT

We accept card payments by Visa, MasterCard, American Express and several local payment options. Upon receiving your order we carry out a standard pre-authorisation check on your payment card to ensure there are sufficient funds to fulfil the transaction. Please note that the products will not be dispatched until the pre-authorisation check has been completed. Your card will be debited once the order has been accepted. All payments are handled by Adyen.

You must also, at your own cost, return the products without delay and at latest within 14 days from your message to cancel the contract.

We will refund you the money paid for the products that have been cancelled, using the same method used to make the payment, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise. This includes the delivery costs for standard delivery, except for such additional delivery costs if you have chosen another, more expensive delivery method than our standard delivery. We will not cover your return. The refund will be made within 14 days from receiving your message to cancel the contract, although we may wait until we have received the products back or you provided evidence of having sent back the products.
