RISK OF LOSS

Risk of loss and title for items purchased from EconoCoop pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier. If the items cross an international border, risk of loss and title pass to you after customs clearance in Canada.

RETURNS, REFUNDS, AND TITLE

Title to returned items passes to EconoCoop only upon receipt at our fulfillment center. We may, at our discretion, issue a refund without requiring a return. In this case, title to the refunded items does not pass to EconoCoop.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS

EconoCoop attempts to be as accurate as possible. However, EconoCoop does not warrant that product descriptions or other content of any EconoCoop Service is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. If a product offered by EconoCoop is not as described, your sole remedy is to return it in unused condition.

PRICING

"Price" refers to the suggested retail price of a product provided by the manufacturer, supplier, or seller. We regularly compare the Price to recent prices found on EconoCoop and at other retailers. For some products, a "Previous price" may be shown based on recent price history on EconoCoop.

Regarding items sold on EconoCoop, we cannot confirm the price of an item until you place your order. Despite our best efforts, a small number of items in our catalog may be mispriced. If the correct price of an item sold by EconoCoop is higher than our stated price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation. Other merchants may follow different policies in the event of a mispriced item.

We generally do not charge your credit card until after your order has entered the shipping process or, for digital products, until the product is made available to you.

OTHER BUSINESSES

Parties other than EconoCoop operate stores, provide services or software, or sell product lines through the EconoCoop Services. We may also provide links to the websites of affiliated companies and certain other businesses.

We are not responsible for examining or evaluating, and we do not warrant, the offerings of any of these businesses or individuals (including the content of their websites). EconoCoop does not assume any responsibility or liability for the actions, products, or content of these and any other third parties.
