8. Conclusion of sale and availability of stock
A registered Third-Party Buyer, may place orders for Goods, which the Company or the Third-Party Seller may accept or reject. Whether or not the Company or the Third-Party Seller accepts an order depends on the availability of Goods, correctness of the information relating to the Goods and receipt of payment or payment authorisation by the Company for the Goods.
The Company or the Third-Party Seller will indicate the acceptance of the Third-Party Buyer’s order by delivering the Goods to you or allowing you to collect them, and only at that point will an agreement of sale between you and the Third-Party Seller come into effect. This is regardless of any communication on the Website stating that the Third-Party Buyer’s order or payment has been confirmed. The Company will indicate the rejection of the Third-Party Buyer’s order by cancelling it and, as soon as possible thereafter, refunding the Third-Party Buyer for any amount already paid.
Prior to delivery or your collection of the Goods, the Third-Party Buyer may cancel an order at any time provided they do so before receiving a dispatch or delivery notice. After delivery or collection of the Goods, the Third-Party Buyermay return the Goods only in accordance with the Company’s Returns Policy.
The Third-Party Buyer acknowledges that stock of all Goods on offer is limited and that pricing may change at any time without notice. When Goods are no longer available after you a Third-Party Buyer has placed an order, the Company will notify you and you will be entitled to a refund of any amount already paid by you for such Goods.
The Company relies on inventory information supplied by the Third-Party Seller and the Company accordingly bears no liability for any inaccuracies in the information supplied to it. Consequently, should a Third-Party Buyer order any Goods from a Third-Party Seller which are sold out, any resulting dispute should be resolved between the Third-Party Buyer and the relevant Third-Party Seller.
9. Payment
Payment can be made for Goods via credit card or debit card, a paypal account or manually via EFT.
The Company may require additional information in order to authorise and/or verify the validity of payment. In such cases the Company is entitled to withhold delivery until such time as the additional information is received by the Company and authorisation is obtained by the Company for the amounts. If the Company does not receive authorisation the order for the Goods will be cancelled. The Third-Party Buyer warrants that they are fully authorised to use the credit card or debit card supplied for purposes of paying for the Goods. You also warrant that your credit card and debit card have sufficient available funds to cover all the costs incurred as a result of the Service used on the Website;
Payment can also be made via direct bank deposit or electronic funds transfer.
If the Third-Party Buyer pays via direct bank deposit or electronic funds transfer, payment must be made within 5 (five) days of placing your order.
Once the Third-Party Buyer has selected a payment method, they will be directed to a link to a secure site for payment of the applicable purchase price for the Goods.

You can return unwanted Goods on condition that they are undamaged and unused, in the original packaging, do not have any missing accessories or parts and the return query is submitted via email to info@azatimix.com.
If the Company accidentally delivers the wrong Goods, or if the Goods are not as described on the Website or having any elements missing or damaged, the Third-Party Buyer must notify the Company and the Company will collect the Goods at no charge. The correct Goods will then be delivered within 10 days, alternatively a credit will be passed for these Goods If the Third-Party Buyer chooses not to exchange these Goods.
