Terms and Conditions

General

Prices

The standard rate of VAT is 15%. We reserve the right to amend or increase prices at our discretion or in the course of a sale. We operate other businesses independently, selling similar products by mail order and in our shops. The prices, although almost always the same, may vary from those shown.

All discount promotions exclude items on sale and delivery fees

Availability

All products and services are subject to availability and may be withdrawn at any time, including after you have placed your order. If your order cannot be fulfilled we will notify you as soon as possible. We reserve the right to withdraw any item from sale at any time. In these circumstances you will be advised.

Descriptions

While we have made every effort to show and describe our products as accurately as possible, in rare cases the final product may differ slightly from the images shown. We sometimes substitute products of a similar description where, for example, the original item becomes unavailable. Where this happens we will inform you at the time of ordering. We have tried to describe all products fairly and the weights, dimensions and capacities given are approximate only. Packaging may vary from that shown.

 

Delivery info

Shipping within South Africa

Free domestic door-to-door delivery is offered on order values of R1000.00 or more including VAT (South Africa only).

Orders are usually delivered within 2–5 working days from receipt of payment. Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond Kitsch Kool Properties t/a Big Blue or our nominated couriers’ control, certain orders may take longer than the usual 2–5 working days for delivery. If this is the case we will do everything in our power to rectify the situation as soon as possible.

Orders below R1000.00 including VAT will be charged R1000.00 for delivery. (South Africa only).

We will nominate a delivery option for you, where possible we will always use a courier, however due to some area locations not being serviced by a nominated courier it is easier to use the South African Post Office service. If you require a courier delivery please advise us when placing your order.

A confirmation email will be sent once your order has been received and processed. A second confirmation email will be sent once your items have been paid for in full and dispatched, also contained in this email will be the nominated courier’s tracking number with which you can track your parcel.
