3. BROWSING AND SALES

We guarantee that all products for sale on our Site are authentic.
The handbags and products for sale on our Site are pre-owned and are in the condition depicted on the respective product page. All products are sold on an as-is basis in their present condition and we make no representations or warranties as to the extent or nature of the previous use of a product by the previous owner, as such matters are outside of our direct knowledge, other than matters we are directly aware of from inspecting the product. For this reason, and except to any extent required at law, we do not give any representation or warranty as to the remaining life of a product or any aspect thereof, nor of any condition aspects affecting the product which arise only subsequent to the sale of a product such that we had no knowledge of such aspect at the time of sale.
All efforts have been made to photograph and describe the handbags and products clearly and accurately and to state any condition aspects and issues that we are aware of. The colour of our products may differ to the colour depicted in photographs due to differing lights.
We are not affiliated with the designers/companies whose products we sell and nor do we represent to be.
In response to heightened risk of credit card fraud, you will be required to undergo an ID verification procedure after making a purchase with Emier. Following your purchase, you will receive a FaceTime call from a representative of Emier, who will verify your photo identification and confirm the last four digits and the name associated with the payment card used to make the purchase. If you proceed with your payment and subsequently refuse to undergo the ID verification process or fail to prove the identity of the cardholder, we will refund your order in full, less a small fee to cover card processing fees. For Visa or Mastercard purchases, this fee will be 1.7% of the purchase price, and for American Express purchases, this fee will be 2.7% of the purchase price. If you do not wish to undergo this ID verification procedure, there are other payment options available to you such as bank transfer, or in-store cash or eftpos payments.
If you purchase a product from us and wish to return this, then you may return the product to us provided that you comply with our RETURN POLICY. No refund for change of mind. For the return of items purchased using Credit Card and PayPal, a transaction fee will be retained. For Visa or Mastercard purchases, this fee will be 1.7% of the purchase price, and for American Express purchases, this fee will be 2.7% of the purchase price. All other items returned pursuant to our Returns Policy will be refunded in full, excluding any international shipping fee paid on international orders. To initiate a return you must notify us by email by 5pm (AEST) on the final day of the returns period. For the purposes of calculating the returns period, this period commences on the day the item is delivered, that day being counted as day 1, and ends at 5pm (AEST) which is counted as final day of the returns period. You must then promptly comply with our directions for return shipment of the product following the return being initiated, to ensure its immediate return. Upon our return instructions being given, any delay in sending the item for return will result in the item being ineligible for return.
If in the unlikely event we are not able to fulfil an order for a product that you have purchased from us, we will immediately issue you with a full refund of any monies you have paid us for that product. We reserve the right to cancel an order for any reason, including in the event of an error, and in such case we will refund any monies paid.
Upon purchase, we will ship the purchased product to you by either courier or post. You or another person at your nominated address must sign for your product to accept receipt and you are responsible for ensuring that any person signing for receipt of the product is authorised to do so. Upon yourself or another person accepting receipt of your product, the risk and title in the product is deemed to pass to you.
If you consign any handbags via our Site, then your consignment will also be subject to our CONSIGNMENT AGREEMENT. We reserve the right to not accept a handbag for consignment for any reason.
If you sell any handbags to us, then your sale will also be subject to our SELLING TO US TERMS. We reserve the right to not accept a handbag for outright sale for any reason
