Terms Of Purchase // What to Expect

By making a purchase in a Shop hosted by the Raqk Services, you’re agreeing to these Terms of Purchase and to Raqk’s Terms including without limitation Raqk’s Privacy Policy. All capitalized terms that are not defined in this Terms of Purchase, will have the meaning provided in the definition section of the Raqk Terms.

You are purchasing product directly from an independent business

When you purchase a product from a Shop hosted by the Raqk Services, you are directly supporting an independent seller (who we call a “Brand”) and a Shop Curator (someone who selects specific products from Brands to offer in their Raqk Shop). Each product is offered as part of what we call a “Product Event.” We call it an event because the product is offered for a limited time, in limited quantities, and is provided to you in accordance with specific processing times, and shipping methods, and other parameters that are unique to the product being offered at that time. All the parameters for each Product Event are set by the Brand. Raqk does not pre-screen products, Product Events, Brands or Shop Curators that use the Raqk Services. As such, it is your responsibility to ask questions and investigate a product, a Product Event or a Brand to the extent you feel is necessary before making a purchase. All purchases are made by you voluntarily and at the sole discretion and risk of you, the “Customer ”. For your convenience, the Brand’s contact information is provided in a profile page that is easily accessible by clicking on the Brand’s name, which appears in each Product Event under the product name.

You agree to the Product Event parameters

Brands create Product Events that are made available in Raqk Shops and each Product Event has its own set of parameters including but not limited to available units, time limits, terms, or other restrictions which may require you to complete a purchase within a certain timeframe or under other limitations or restrictions.

By making a purchase from a Shop hosted by Raqk Services, you agree that you:

• Have read the product description and Product Event details/terms before making a purchase;

• Agree to the Product Event parameters and any additional terms identified in each Product Event including but not limited to the pricing (all prices listed in USD), shipping terms, processing times, duration, terms of sale, etc;

• Understand you are purchasing a product that is being sold by the Brand (listed as the seller for the Product Event) and the Brand is responsible to fulfill and ship all purchases that are successfully completed through the Raqk Services in accordance with the Customer order details;

• Have provided accurate payment, billing, and shipping information as part of the checkout process;

• Will contact the Brand with any questions about the Product, Product Event, or your purchase or Transaction; and,

• Agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations that may apply to the purchase and delivery of each product that you purchase.

• Did not receive Your package? Please keep in contact with the Brand if you do not receive your package within a reasonable timeframe after it is shipped, so that the Brand can work to determine the whereabout of your package. Staying on top of delivery is important to getting the cooperation of the shipping services that might be used. In addition, if the shipment is international in nature, you may need to reach out to your local customs office regarding your package.

• Need to change Your shipping address? If you need to provide an updated shipping address, please reach out to the Brand as soon as possible. In some cases, there may be an additional shipping cost for your updated shipping address that will need to be collected prior to shipping your package to the new address.
