2. Terms of Sale

2.1. Items are sold on an “AS IS” basis.

THE PRODUCT IS DELIVERED TO CUSTOMER “AS IS,” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, NATURE OR DESCRIPTION, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Unless otherwise noted, the “Appraised Value” displayed for items on our Website means an evaluation of the item’s value made on a given point in time, and is performed by a professional appraiser and jeweller and/ or appraising authority recognized as such by the Gemological Institute of America Inc. (the “GIA”). This Appraised Value is a professional opinion and does not imply and create any warranty of any ind, nature or description.

Unless an item description states that a gemstone is “Natural”, “Unheated” or “Unoiled” CANARY has assumed that some form of treatment may have been used for all such gemstones as commonly accepted in the gem industry. Such acceptable treatments may or may not be permanent. In cases where the gem industry does not accept a treatment, we may either reject the consignment or disclose to the buyer any such treatment accordingly.

In Swiss watches, “Custom Added Diamonds” means that diamonds were added to the watch by a party other than the manufacturer, as opposed to “Factory/Original Diamonds”, which are added by the manufacturer. Some watches may be posted with non-factory upgrades. CANARY takes no part in modifying items it sells. In cases where such an upgrade applies, the items are described accordingly.

2.2. Products and Pricing. All Products or services listed on the Web site are subject to change, as is Product information, pricing, and availability. CANARY reserves the right, at any time, to modify, suspend, or discontinue any Website feature or the sale of any Product with or without notice. You agree that CANARY will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of any Website feature or Product. In the event a Product is listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information, we shall have the right, prior to the acceptance of your order (as described in Section 2.3 below), to decline or cancel any such orders, whether or not the order has been confirmed and/or your credit card or PayPal account charged. If your credit card or PayPal has already been charged for the order and we cancel your order, we will issue a credit to your credit card account or PayPal account in the amount of the charge.

2.3 Payment Terms. For each Product you order on the Website, you agree to pay the price applicable for the Product as of the time you submitted your order (“Product Price”), the delivery fees for the delivery service you select (“Delivery Fees”), and any applicable Taxes (defined below). CANARY will automatically bill your credit card or PayPal account submitted as part of the order process for such amounts within five (5) days of the order date, and you hereby authorize us to do so. You will be solely responsible for payment of all taxes (other than taxes directly imposed on CANARY’s business activity in a province, such as income taxes), fees, duties, and other governmental charges, and any related penalties and interest, arising from the Product purchase (“Taxes”) not withheld by CANARY. All payments are non-refundable (except as expressly set forth in Section 2.1 and 2.3). Without limiting other remedies, we reserve the right to charge a late fee on all past due payments equivalent to the lesser of one and a half percent (1.5%) per month (18% per annum) on the unpaid balance or the highest rate allowed by law. You agree to pay for all collection costs, legal fees, and court costs incurred in the collection of past due amounts.

2.4 Orders. Your receipt of an order confirmation from us does not signify our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell. We reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline or cancel your order (in whole or in part) for any reason. We may require additional verification or information before accepting any order. Your order is not accepted until it is shipped (or a portion of the order is shipped). Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that, if we cancel all or a part of your order, your sole and exclusive remedy is that we (a) issue a credit to your credit card or PayPal account in the amount charged for the cancelled portion (if your credit card has already been charged for the order) or (b) not charge your credit card or PayPal account for the cancelled portion of the order.

2.5 PayPal Purchases. Orders placed using a PayPal account as payment method will be processed upon submission, and funds may be transferred from your PayPal account immediately. This does not signify our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell. We reserve the right to decline or cancel your order as defined in Sections 2.1. This Section does not alter or amend any other Sections of this Agreement.

2.6 Shipping & Handling Policy. Any delivery dates provided by CANARY are estimates. CANARY, and any shipping company that it may elect to use in delivering your order to you, reserves the right to make deliveries in installments. CANARY will send you an email when your order has shipped and you may review your order and shipping & handling information on your CANARY My Account page.
