Availability of Site

Massy Stores (Guyana) Inc. cannot guarantee that the service will be fault free. If a fault occurs in the service you should report it to the Customer Service.

Placing Orders

You place an order on the Sites by adding Goods to your cart, providing all required information and submitting your order by checking out. Please read and check your order carefully before submitting it. However, if you need to correct any errors you can do so before submitting it to us. When you place your order at the end of the online checkout process, we will acknowledge it by email. This acknowledgement does not, however, mean that your order has been accepted or processed and that any product’s price or availability is confirmed.

We may contact you to say that we do not accept your order. The reason for the non-acceptance of your order may include, but are not limited to, the Goods being unavailable; our inability to authorise your payment; your inability to buy the Goods from us; our inability to sell the Goods to you; there being a mistake on the pricing or description of the Goods; illegal or suspicious activity, vague delivery address, natural disasters, potential threats to us and our servants and/ or agents. If an order has not been accepted where payment has already been made, we will refund you the full cost of the transaction.

We reserve the right at any time after the receipt of your order, to supply less than the quantity you ordered, based on the quantity of the Goods that are available at the time of placing the order. Such reduction in quantity shall be communicated to you. If payment has already been made, we will refund you the full cost of the Goods not supplied to you.

We will only accept your order when we email you to confirm this, at which point a legally binding contract on the basis of these Terms and Conditions of Sale will be in place between you and us.

After an order has been accepted by us, you may not without our written consent and payment to us of all charges, expenses, commissions and costs owed to or incurred by us, make changes to the quantities or specifications of items or cancel any whole or part of any order.

Whenever you place an order we’ll do our very best to provide all the items that you’ve ordered.  Sometimes, one or more of your items may not be available when we pick your order, because the item has gone out of stock, for example. If you’ve chosen to allow substitutions, we will offer you a suitable alternative. We choose substitutes very carefully and offer what we believe is the most appropriate alternative to the product you’ve ordered.

If we offer substitutes we’ll make this very clear by calling you or sending you an email detailing substitutions once your order has been confirmed.

If you are not happy with our substitutions please contact Massy Stores (Guyana) Inc. at the phone number at the start of this document within 24 hours of your order confirmation.

You may cancel an order if the order has not yet been confirmed by us and will receive a full refund without any charges.

Price and Payment

The price of the Goods is estimated and is stated on the checkout page and is inclusive of all applicable taxes, which shall be shown separately on the checkout page. Payment of the price and all applicable taxes and fees thereon, shall be made by you on checkout.

At this time,  you may pay by debit card, credit card or cash upon the delivery/collection of your order. If you would like to pay online, then please contact us.

You will not be allowed to use any credit on your “Massy Loyalty Card” or your “Massy Credit Card” to make online purchases. However, you will be entitled to the requisite “points” on your “Massy Loyalty Card” in respect of your online purchase.

The price of the Goods is representative of the cost to you of the Goods inclusive of taxes and fees thereon, including any associated fee, if applicable. Please note that the price does not include any fee for installation or service of the Goods and we are not responsible for any such installation or service of the Goods.

Product Information

The product information contained on the Sites has been published in good faith and we will do our best to ensure that it is accurate. However, occasionally, it may be incorrect, incomplete or out of date due to human error or circumstances beyond our control. As a result, we cannot and do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information, including prices, product images, specifications, availability and services. We reserve the right to change or update information and to correct errors, inaccuracies or omissions at any time without prior notice. We apologize for any inconvenience. Where information is incorrect due to an error or circumstances beyond our control, we reserve the right not to accept your order for the affected Goods, or if your order has already been accepted, not to supply the affected Goods to you. We will notify you if this is the case and will not charge you for the Goods.

Colours and appearances of Goods on computer, tablet or mobile device screens may vary slightly and may not accurately reflect actual products delivered. Product specifications may change from time to time which means that, if the specification has changed in the meantime, the information displayed on the Sites when you place an order may not reflect the Goods you receive.

Curbside Pickup of Goods

The curbside pickup time frames specified by us may be delayed if incorrect information is given or due to any force majeure or security risk such as but not limited to poor infrastructure, flooding, hurricanes, delivery through crime “hot-spots” or delivery to unsafe areas deemed by us or the carrier. In such cases this will either delay your order curbside pickup time or may result in your order being cancelled us. In either case, we will refund any payment which you have already made for the Goods. You agree that we will not be responsible or held liable for such delays in delivery/curbside pickup or cancellation.

We may request that the person taking collection of your order provides us with identification to help us confirm they have your authorisation to accept the order. This may include asking to see an item of your photographic identification (such as a passport or driving licence) and/or the bank card which was used to make payment.

For reasons of security and food safety, we will not leave your order unattended at your address. We will not be responsible for any losses you may incur as a result, for example, contamination as the result of any change in temperature in respect of items which need to be kept chilled or frozen.

Inspection and acceptance

Upon collection you shall inspect the Goods for defects and non-conformance. Any claim that the Goods are not in accordance with the specifications shall be reported to us immediately. Failure to notify us of any defects in the Goods within one (1) business day after delivery will constitute conclusive proof that the Goods delivered were received without defect or damage which would be apparent upon a reasonable examination of the Goods and irrevocably accepted by you. After such acceptance, you shall have no right to reject the Goods for any reason or revoke acceptance, save for any such right you may have under the “Returns” section below or at law.

Title and Risk

Risk of loss or damage to the Goods shall pass to you upon tender of the Goods to you at delivery. Notwithstanding collection or delivery and the passing of risk in the Goods, property in the Goods shall not pass to you until we have received payment in full of the price of the Goods in cash or cleared funds.

Returns

If whilst inspecting the goods at the time of collection, you identify any Goods which are beyond their expiry date, damaged or defective, you may return those Goods and the relevant payment method used to make the purchase shall be refunded accordingly.

Notwithstanding any other clause herein, we reserve the right to reject the return of certain Goods on health and hygiene grounds, especially where it is evident that these Goods were opened or their seals broken or tampered with or where any Goods were damaged, destroyed, or defaced by you or a third party.

Any refund due will be credited to the card used to make the payment within 3-5 working days. Thereafter, the refunds usually take up to 3-5 working days to reach your account.

Where applicable, you may rely on the manufacturer’s warranties with respect to certain Goods, to the extent that it is legally possible for us to pass such warranties to you. We warrant to you that the Goods sold by us will correspond where applicable with the manufacturer’s specifications in the manufacturer’s warranty book provided with the Goods and will be free from defects in material and/ or workmanship as and from the date of delivery and for such period stated in the said warranty book, the Sites or communicated in writing by us (“the warranty period”), provided always the warranty will not extend to cover defects arising from the failure by you to operate the Good under normal and proper conditions and the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Goods which are accepted by us as defective in material or workmanship, if returned to us within the warranty period stated in the warranty period, shall in our sole discretion be either repaired by us or replaced by us. Your sole remedy shall be to return the Goods to us or our authorised dealer for repair or replacement.

Returns where an incorrect item is provided

You must adequately inspect the Goods upon collection. However, if you receive an item that is not what you ordered, we must be notified within one (1) business day. We will not be responsible for any claims made after one (1) business day after the goods have been provided.

Pictures may be required to authenticate your claim that the incorrect item was provided. If we accept that an incorrect item was provided, we will request that you bring the incorrect item in to us immediately. Upon receipt of the incorrect item we will inspect the item is in new, uninstalled and in resalable condition with the original factory packaging and if so, we will at your option replace the item with the correct item (provided that we have such item in stock) or refund you the cost of the item.

If you elect to be refunded, we have the right to refund money the same way it has been received.
