PRICING
The price with respect to any products is specified on the Website (“Price”). The Price is exclusive of any delivery fees.
Where a delivery address within Canada has been nominated, the Price includes CAD Dollars. Unless otherwise stated, all Prices are exclusive of tax and shipping and delivery costs. For customers with a delivery address outside of Canada, additional taxes may be payable by you as levied by authorities in the country of delivery upon importation to that country. If products are over the relevant country’s threshold and customs entry is required, there will also be an additional administration charge from our shipping partners for handling the customs clearance. We do not cover import liabilities that may be applied by the government of the destination country. We will not accept responsibility for customs delays, duties or taxes that may apply in the destination country.
Where products are sold in other countries, applicable sales tax may apply and will be in addition to the quoted Price.
Any currency conversion fees or rates used to determine the amount you pay for the products is determined by your credit card provider. We are not liable for any difference between the Price quoted on the Website and the actual amount charged to you for the products as determined by the fees and conversion rate used by your credit card provider.
We reserve the right to change or alter Prices on the Website without notice to you.
In paying or attempting to pay for the products, you agree that you have not engaged in any fraudulent conduct or contravened any law.
Where applicable, we will issue you with a Canadian tax invoice once payment in respect of the Order has been processed.
While we take all reasonable precautions with respect to encrypting and securing your payments to us, we cannot guarantee the security of any transaction.
SITEWIDE SALES, REGULAR PROMOTIONAL SALES AND FINAL SALES
Promotional sales may exclude selected products, pre-orders and the purchase of e-vouchers. The marked-down price of products in a promotion will be the displayed price unless a discount code is required, in which case the final price will display once the code has been entered correctly at checkout. Discount codes can only be applied once per person/transaction.
If a promotional sale applies to already reduced products (mark-down items), the discount will be applied to their current sale price. You may or may not see the original recommended retail price if this is the case. The use of discount codes issued prior to a sale is not applicable on already reduced products during a sitewide sale. The conditions of a discount code will be specified at the time of issue.
The term FINAL SALE means a sale where we impose particular conditions on change-of-mind returns and exchanges that do not apply to other regular purchases. For details see our CHANGE OF MIND RETURNS policy below. Our use of the term FINAL SALE means only that the item can only be returned by the purchaser in limited circumstances (including as required by law) and does not bind us to refrain from further selling, and/or further discounting of, the relevant item, after the then current sale has finished.
We reserve the right to end a promotional sale at any time without notice, unless we have otherwise published a date for the sale to end.
PRICING ERRORS
We reserve the right to amend any pricing errors displayed whether due to human error, computer malfunction, or otherwise.
Where a pricing error occurs (subject to applicable law that cannot be excluded), we will not be bound by the incorrect pricing stated, and reserve the right to cancel your purchase. If payment has already been made or if your account has already been charged for the purchase and the order is canceled, we shall credit your account in the amount of the incorrect price.
CANCELLATION OF ORDERS
Please carefully check that your Order (including delivery address) is accurate before you submit it as unless otherwise provided for under these Terms, no cancellations or changes will be accepted. This also applies to pre-orders, unless, at our discretion, we allow such cancellation of pre-orders (in which case the timeframe to cancel will be short).

RETURNS
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THROUGH ALL RETURN TERMS AS YOU ARE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS WHEN YOU MAKE A PURCHASE FROM OUR WEBSITE. Please reach out to support@exink.co if you have additional questions or need help completing a return.
FINAL SALE/MARK DOWN SALE ITEMS
All sale items and items purchased during promotional periods are final sales and ineligible returns. An item is considered a final sale when it is in the 'Sale' section and shows a permanently marked-down price.
We will accept a return within 30 days of purchase and provide you with a credit note or refund in accordance with this returns policy and terms. Goods must be unwashed, unworn and in their original purchase condition with original tags still attached with no signs of being removed and reattached. The following items cannot be returned for change of mind reasons only (unless it’s a Deficient Product, as defined below):
● e-vouchers and gift cards.
● products marked “final sale” when purchased.
● underwear, lingerie, bodysuits, products that have inbuilt underwear sewn into them, and
swimwear (including one-pieces and sets) if supplied with an original hygiene sticker where
that has been subsequently removed or displaced.
● any products that have a T-string cut or are marked “final sale”.
● products returned in a condition other than their original condition.
● products returned without their tags attached.
● products not in their original packaging.
● products that appear to have been worn, the smell of perfume, smoke, deodorant or body odour.
● products that are marked or damaged in any way, including, fake tan, deodorant or
makeup.
For the avoidance of doubt, returns of Deficient Products, as defined below, are not restricted in the above way and are dealt with below.
Shipping costs are not refundable for change-of-mind returns and you are responsible for the costs of shipping the products back to us.
Returns are usually processed within 3 business days of receipt and you’ll receive an email detailing your return once this has been completed.
Our returns department has the right to refuse any returned item (not being a Deficient Product, which is dealt with below) that does not meet the original condition, in which case we may require you to pay our reasonable postage costs before we return the item to you.
RETURNS PROCESS
To request a return for an eligible item, please head to our returns portal by clicking on the button and following the prompts. Once you’ve submitted your return request, we will contact you with details of your return so that you can send your eligible item(s) back to us. The Customer must include their order confirmation email & completed returns form within their return parcel.
DEFICIENT PRODUCT RETURNS
All Goods are thoroughly inspected to ensure they are in a sellable condition prior to being sent to the Customer. However, if the Customer discovers that a Good is faulty or damaged (“Deficient Product”), the Customer must notify us within a reasonable time frame. If we inspect the Goods and confirm that there is a fault, we will accept the return and provide you with an exchange, repair, credit note or refund (at your election) using your original payment method. However, we reserve the right not to offer a credit note, exchange or refund where the goods have become of unacceptable quality a result of your misuse, damage or neglect.
If you believe an item you've purchased from us is a Deficient Product, contact us at support@exink.co with (if applicable) images and other descriptions of the fault or deficiency.
Deficient Products can be returned within a reasonable timeframe (the length of which may depend on the circumstances) subject to proof of purchase (or where we have details of your purchase in our system).
Once you’ve submitted your return request, we will contact you with details of your return so that you can send your item(s) back to us. Deficient Product returns are usually processed within 3 business days of receipt and you’ll receive an email detailing your return once this has been done.
We will cover the packaging and postage costs associated with you returning a Deficient Product. However, you are liable for any delivery costs if we reasonably determine that the returned product does not meet the criteria for being a Deficient Product.
CREDIT NOTE AND REFUNDS
All returned orders will at our option, be issued with either a credit note or refund to the value of the item(s) returned, less any shipping costs (other than Deficient Product, where we will be responsible for these costs and will provide a refund where you request it instead of a credit note).
LOST OR STOLEN RETURNS
Please note, we are not responsible for lost, stolen or undelivered returned parcels. Once you purchase an item, the risk of loss and title for the item passes to you upon our delivery of the product to the carrier for initial delivery. For more information, please read the “TERMS OF SALE; RISK OF LOSS” section of our Terms.
SHIPPING
Delivery times are quoted in business days for metro areas only and are estimates. Such estimates are not contractual commitments.
During sale periods, please allow additional time to receive your order.
Shipping times are provided by our couriers and can vary depending on shipping location and other external factors.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EXINK (US) WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGES TO THE CUSTOMER OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR FAILING TO MEET A DELIVERY ESTIMATE.
For international orders, the displayed product costs and delivery fees do not include taxes and duties which may be applied by customs or postal authorities in the country of delivery (see below for more information).
We make every effort to ship all orders on the same day. Orders placed after 12pm PDT , on weekends or public holidays will be attempted to be processed the following business day. You will receive a shipping confirmation email as soon as the order has been dispatched. You can also select to receive updates by SMS at checkout after you place your order.
In the event that you do not receive your order within 15 business days of placement, please contact us at support@exink.co.
DELIVERY METHOD
All orders are shipped via UPS from Canada. Orders sent express via UPS use a signature service and can be tracked here. If delivery is attempted while no one is home the courier will leave a card in your letterbox or attempt to contact you to arrange a re-delivery. We recommend providing a business address to ensure your order is signed for when delivery is attempted.
Please note, if you request your delivery method be updated to a different address or provide UPS with the authority to leave, you are waiving your right to any form of reimbursement or re-delivery if your order is not delivered, stolen or lost. We do not recommend changing your delivery method from our signature service.
**We reserve the right to amend delivery methods without notice.
CURRENCY CONVERSIONS
Currency conversions are estimates only and the total amount you are charged will depend on the exchange rate and processing fees your bank charges you. Your order total will display in CAD at checkout (even where you are using our currency converter to view prices in your local currency) and all order confirmation emails and invoices will display CAD. The conversion rate you are charged will be decided by your bank. While most exchange rate systems are very similar, we can’t guarantee the exchange rate we are using to display an approximate price to you on our site will be the same exchange rate that your bank uses when processing your transaction.
INTERNATIONAL TAXES & DUTIES
You may be charged import duties and taxes by your local customs authority when your parcel is received in your country. Duty rates vary depending on the value of the goods, what they are made of and where they are made. Importantly, all countries have different rules regarding this so we are unable to tell you exactly what duties you may be required to pay as this is determined on import by local customs officials. As you may be required to pay duties or import tax, it is your responsibility to make yourself aware of the duties that apply in your country in case you are charged to avoid any surprises. We have highlighted some customs websites to refer to before purchasing below.
Please note, if you decide not to pay import taxes or duties and choose to reject the parcel, a restocking fee and any shipping and delivery costs will be deducted from your refund.

Please note, that free shipping thresholds only apply to the order after discount codes have been applied and before shipping costs are added i.e. the amount spent on items in your order (excluding any shipping costs) must exceed our minimum spend in order to qualify for free shipping.
SALE PERIODS & PUBLIC HOLIDAYS
Due to the huge response we receive during sale and promotional periods, there are times when we will be unable to ship your order the following business day. Please allow additional days for the processing of your order during sale times, as well as any public holidays when our dispatch center is closed.
EDITING ORDERS & ADDRESSES
Changes to items on orders, shipping addresses or names are not possible once an order has been processed. Please check your billing and shipping information carefully before you place your order as our dispatch team processes orders quickly.
