The purpose of this document is to regulate in general the commercial relations of sale and supply that take place between The Vape Lab 3, and buyers, individuals or legal entities that may or may not have the status of professionals (hereinafter, the CLIENT). By its acceptance, the CUSTOMER declares to have read, understood and accepted the provisions of these General Conditions, consenting to be bound by them without reservation.

The CLIENT declares to be of legal age and to have sufficient capacity to sign this contract.

These General Conditions shall apply to all purchases and services agreed between the SUPPLIER and the CUSTOMER and shall be binding on both, being without effect any other condition or specification that the CUSTOMER includes in any other documentation without the explicit written acceptance of the SUPPLIER.

These General Conditions may be modified by the needs of the SUPPLIER or by legal imperative, so the CUSTOMER must check and accept the content of these prior to placing each order.

If the CUSTOMER is a consumer, in all matters not provided for in these conditions or not applicable, the provisions of Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007, of November 16, which approves the Consolidated Text of the General Law for the Defense of Consumers and Users, as well as European consumer legislation in force at the time of contracting, the SUPPLIER is currently responsible for any lack of conformity that exists at the time of delivery and which becomes apparent within a period of three years from the same.

The CUSTOMER may exercise the right of withdrawal within 14 calendar days from the delivery of the goods, being responsible for the cost of return.

The conditions to be able to return the product are the following:

    • Nozzles
    • Any other product whose seal guarantees the safety and/or hygiene of the product.
  • Return of used product is not allowed.
  • The return of a product that does not contain all the parts is not allowed.
  • We will only accept returns of products in perfect condition, in their original box and with all the components that integrate it, expressly excluding returns of damaged products or containing damage.

Tlfn: 711 039 564

Once the product has been received, the SUPPLIER will check that it complies with all the return conditions. If so, a coupon will be issued to the CUSTOMER to be used on the website thevapelab3.com or the return will be made by bank transfer, after consulting the CUSTOMER to choose the method of your choice. In case of refusal of the return, the CUSTOMER authorizes the SUPPLIER to resend the product, either in his next order, or through a separate shipment at the choice of the SUPPLIER, being at the expense of the CUSTOMER the cost of return.

In the event of the existence of special conditions, they shall be considered binding only when they are also signed by both parties, having a preferential character in all that which could exclude the conditions of these general conditions.

Likewise, the acceptance of these General Terms and Conditions shall have the effect of novating any other terms and conditions that may have been previously subscribed by the parties.

2. PRODUCTS, PRICES AND ORDERS

Orders placed by the CUSTOMER with the SUPPLIER must be placed through the platform provided for this purpose on the website thevapelab3.com, not being binding those placed verbally or by telephone as long as the SUPPLIER does not confirm them in writing. Placing an order shall require a USER account on the SUPPLIER's website and shall imply acceptance of these General Terms and Conditions and the General Terms and Conditions of the payment service provider.

The photographs or graphics may undergo alterations or variations due to design or format changes, which the CUSTOMER accepts. The SUPPLIER may withdraw from sale any of its products without prior notice or modify the price, without giving rise to any compensation to the CUSTOMER.

The CUSTOMER shall select and add to the virtual shopping cart the products and quantities required. If there are specific shipping needs or in relation to the order placed that the SUPPLIER should be aware of, they should be indicated in the "observations" section. During the processing of the order, the approximate shipping costs will be informed, as well as the possible assumption of the same by the SUPPLIER, if the free shipping is applicable in accordance with the company's policy.

The CLIENT declares to understand that the estimated shipping costs calculated through the portal may be subject to variations and accepts that the SUPPLIER will pass on to the CLIENT any possible upward variation of these costs.

To make the payment, the CUSTOMER must complete the data of his/her debit/credit card and authorize the charge. By doing so, he/she declares to be the holder of the same or to be authorized to use it, being responsible for any unauthorized or improper use that may be incurred.

In the event that the payment of the total amount of the order is made after the order has been placed or by bank transfer, the CUSTOMER must send the proof of payment or any other method of payment accepted by the SUPPLIER to the e-mail address indicated below, showing the order number, the bank account number issued by the SUPPLIER and the amount paid: info@thevapelab3.com.

Once the order has been finalized and confirmed by the CUSTOMER, the SUPPLIER will reply within a period not exceeding 7 days, accepting or rejecting the order, as well as attending to any request from the CUSTOMER.

In the event of a manifest error in the price of the products, the SUPPLIER will inform the CUSTOMER as soon as possible after it is detected, communicating the correct price and allowing the CUSTOMER to choose between the cancellation of the order or its acceptance upon payment of the correct amount. In no case shall the SUPPLIER be obliged to send the order if the CUSTOMER refuses to pay the correct price, in which case the SUPPLIER will proceed to refund the amount paid by the CUSTOMER.

If the method of payment chosen by the CUSTOMER is by bank transfer, the order is reserved for the CUSTOMER for 3 working days. After this period, if there is no response from the CUSTOMER, the SUPPLIER will proceed to cancel the order.

The perfection of the purchase contract shall be subject to the acceptance of the order by the SUPPLIER and to the existence of stock of the products requested by the CUSTOMER. In the event that, once the order has been placed by the CUSTOMER and accepted by the SUPPLIER, any of the products requested are not available, the SUPPLIER shall inform the CUSTOMER of this circumstance, also informing that, unless expressly indicated by the CUSTOMER to cancel the order completely, the order shall be sent, except for those items that are not available. Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided that the shipment has not left the SUPPLIER's facilities, the CUSTOMER may replace the out-of-stock product with a product of the same amount. In any case, with respect to the balance resulting in favor of the customer of the products out of stock, the CUSTOMER may alternatively opt for a refund of the amount, for a coupon to use on the website thevapelab3.com or to keep the order and that this is sent in the next order placed by the CUSTOMER, provided that stock is available.

The CLIENT declares that all data provided to the SUPPLIER are correct and truthful, exempting the latter from any liability that may arise from the inaccuracy or falsity of the same, and the SUPPLIER may claim damages caused by the breach of this obligation.

3. MODIFICATION AND CANCELLATION OF ORDERS

Once the SUPPLIER has confirmed the order by e-mail to the CUSTOMER's user e-mail address, the CUSTOMER agrees to receive the order, subjecting it to these General Conditions and the particular conditions that have been explicitly agreed with the order.

However, in the event that the CUSTOMER requires a modification, the moment in which the CUSTOMER is informed of such circumstance will be taken into account. In the event that such modification does not cause any additional cost or inconvenience to the SUPPLIER, it will carry out the requested modifications. In the event that the requested modifications alter the cost of execution or cause any inconvenience, the SUPPLIER will inform the CUSTOMER of such circumstances and, at the decision of the latter, the order will be executed under the conditions originally agreed or as modified if possible, which will entail the assumption by the CUSTOMER of any expenses incurred by the modification.

In any case, the SUPPLIER shall only be entitled to make modifications or cancellations to the order prior to delivery of the goods to the CARRIER, in accordance with the provisions of the following Condition.

4. SHIPMENT, DELIVERY AND INSPECTION OF GOODS

Delays in delivery due to force majeure or fortuitous events not attributable to the SUPPLIER, such as (by way of example) floods, earthquakes, tidal waves, power outages or any other supplies necessary for the activity, situations of political instability, riots, revolts or declaration of war, shall not give rise to liability on the part of the SUPPLIER.

The shipment and delivery of the goods shall be carried out by a CARRIER, whose choice, unless otherwise agreed in the particular conditions, shall be made by the CUSTOMER before confirming the order among those offered by the SUPPLIER. Once the goods have been delivered to the CARRIER, the SUPPLIER is completely exonerated from any liability not attributable to it for the land, sea or air transport, both national and international, of the goods.

Shipping and transport costs to the place indicated by the CUSTOMER shall be borne by the CUSTOMER, unless otherwise agreed (excluding in any case the taxes and fees that correspond to the CUSTOMER).

The parties may also agree to collect the goods at the facilities of the SUPPLIER, an agreement which shall be recorded in writing in the order and which shall exempt the SUPPLIER, as indicated above, from any liability with respect to the transport of the goods.

The delivery of the goods shall be made by the CARRIER on the date and at the place agreed upon in the respective purchase orders, unless, for justified cause, the SUPPLIER is unable to deliver the goods to the CARRIER under the agreed conditions.

Delivery on a different date for reasons not attributable to the SUPPLIER shall not be considered a delay.

The CUSTOMER undertakes to receive the goods correctly shipped. In case of refusal to receive the goods, it will be understood as an essential breach of contract. The SUPPLIER, informing the CUSTOMER of the non-receipt, will give a period of 5 working days to arrange a new shipment, and if this occurs, the customer will be responsible for the costs of transport and storage and any other costs that may have caused the original non-receipt of the order. In the event of continued refusal to receive the order correctly accepted, the SUPPLIER is entitled to take possession of the goods, and the penalty for such non-compliance shall be 20% of the price of the order, plus the full costs of the second unsuccessful shipment. In the case of personalized goods, the full cost of the goods, plus the costs of the second shipment and all those incurred by the SUPPLIER for the destruction of the goods, shall be payable.

The SUPPLIER shall deliver the goods properly packed to the CLIENT, being the CARRIER's responsibility to ensure that the goods arrive at their destination in the agreed conditions. In case of defect or damage in the packaging, or any incident in the transport, the CUSTOMER shall notify the SUPPLIER within 24 hours after receipt of the product or in the absence thereof to agree on a solution, reshipment or replacement, if the defect or damage is not attributable to the actions of the CARRIER. In case of non-compliance by the CUSTOMER of the indicated notice in time, the SUPPLIER shall be exonerated from any liability for the order that suffers the incident during transport.

Once the order has been delivered, the CUSTOMER may carry out the inspections of the goods it deems appropriate within 4 days and once these have been carried out and there is conformity, the CUSTOMER may not allege any manifest defect or defect in the quality or quantity of the goods. The SUPPLIER shall not be liable for any claims arising from damage due to an act of God, inherent defect or fraud. Once this period has expired, the SUPPLIER shall only be liable for internal defects of the goods, which must be duly proven, for a period of 30 days.

5. INVOICING AND PAYMENTS

The prices indicated in the orders shall be firm and non-revisable, unless a material error is accredited by the SUPPLIER, in accordance with the provisions of the SECOND clause of the present GTC.

The price excludes the VAT in force and customs, special or tariff taxes that according to Law must be assumed by the final customer, unless the prices including taxes are indicated on the web page of the SUPPLIER or during the purchase process on the same.

The SUPPLIER shall issue an invoice for each supply of goods, indicating on the invoice the order number and the description of the product.

As a general rule, payment of the agreed price must be made prior to shipment of the goods and at the time of order confirmation, through any of the means of payment offered by the platform of the SUPPLIER's website.

6. RETURNS AND WARRANTY OF GOODS

If the CUSTOMER is a consumer, he may exercise his right of withdrawal in accordance with the law, having the right to return the goods without giving any reason within a period of 14 days from receipt, provided they have not been opened, manipulated or damaged. The SUPPLIER will proceed to reimburse the amount of the price of the products within a maximum period of 30 days. The CUSTOMER will be responsible for the shipping costs derived from the return. Once this period has elapsed, durable products will only be returned for the specified reasons covered by the legal guarantee.

The SUPPLIER warrants its durable products against defects in materials and workmanship. Under normal use and service, during the warranty period the products shall be free from physical defects in materials and workmanship. Otherwise, the product will be repaired or replaced at the sole discretion of the SUPPLIER.

If a product should prove to have problems or defects attributable to the SUPPLIER, during the warranty period, the SUPPLIER shall proceed, at its option and expense, to repair the defective product or part, or deliver to the customer an equivalent product or part to replace the defective item. All replaced products shall become the property of the SUPPLIER. Replacement products may be new or reconditioned. All items received for pick-up and payment from the SUPPLIER that do not comply with the terms and conditions will be placed in quarantine storage until the customer covers the cost of shipping and reshipping and repair if applicable.

For products with an estimated number of uses, the warranty will be provided for the useful life estimated by the manufacturer. Consumable products are not covered by the legal warranty.
