Delivery
Through the Platform we allow Buyers to buy Products from Sellers. We also perform or organize delivery thereof in the territory of Armenia at the expense of the Buyer.
In case of delivery to other countries, such Delivery will be performed by a Carrier. Neither we nor the Seller are responsible for the actions and omission of the Carrier, and neither we nor the Seller can guarantee proper delivery of the Products by the latter. The delivery is only available in countries listed in the Annex to these Terms. We carry out the delivery on Sellers’ behalf and at Sellers’ expense. Usually the delivery (carriage) will be organized by the Seller for a separate fee. However, if you purchase Products from more than one Seller at once, then you automatically instruct Us to order the delivery on your behalf and sign on your behalf a contract with the Carrier. The prices of the delivery will be notified to you during the purchase, prior to your payment for it. Other terms of the carriage/delivery will be per the then current conditions of carriage/delivery offered by the Carrier (FedEx of similar carriage company). We will not be able to renegotiate or change such terms.
In Armenia the delivery in the territory of Yerevan is performed within 24 hours (excluding non-working days) and delivery in the regions (including from regions to Yerevan and vice versa) is performed within 72 hours (excluding non-working days). Delivery (carriage) outside of Armenia will be performed per the timelines ensured by the Carrier, taking into account also the timeline for transferring the Products from the Seller to the Carrier and the customs clearance.
Buyers are solely responsible for providing the correct addresses for delivery on the Platform, and they therefore release GoldCenter and the Carrier from any liability for negligence or error in the delivery of the order as a result of providing an incorrect address for delivery. In this case, the Carrier at his own discretion can return the product to the initial collection address with subsequent refund or deliver the product to the new address mentioned by the Buyer within one (1) day starting from the first delivery date. As a result of the foregoing, the cost resulting from providing an incorrect address for delivery on the Platform shall be borne by the Buyer.
If the Buyer is not at the place agreed for delivery within ten (10) minutes from the arrival of the courier, the courier may at his own discretion return the product to the initial collection address or arrange another date and time with the Buyer for delivery within one (1) day starting from the initial delivery date, payable additionally per the applicable delivery rate.
GoldCenter will, as an extra service subject to a separate fee, prior to the delivery of the Products, check the compliance of the external layer of gold products to the declared gold content, as well as check the existence of content hallmarks. Upon such checks We will guarantee the correspondence of the external layer of gold products to the declared gold content.
