1. How to order our products remotely?

You can order your favourite products as part of our personalized distance shopping service, by phone or videoconference. You can reserve your time slot directly on our website: www.uk.maje.com. Placing orders couldn't be easier!

Reserve your distance shopping session on our website in one of our shops offering this service, or call the shop directly.
With our advisors, select your items, the desired size and tell our advisor that you want to order them. Your advisor will inform you of the delivery methods available (home delivery if your home is eligible for this service or in-store delivery - the list of shops eligible for in-store delivery is available on our website).
Once your order is complete, you will receive an email summary of your order containing a secure payment link.
Choose your payment method (see below "How to pay for your order?" for more information on payment methods), read and accept the GCS and proceed to the secure payment of your order. Payment of your order implies full acceptance of these GCS.
Your order is confirmed! You will then receive an e-ticket confirming your order, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.

By placing an order, you declare that you are at least 18 years of age and have legal capacity (or if you are a minor, you will need parental authorization to place your order).
Once your order has been prepared by us, it will either be sent to your home address or made available in the selected shop in the best delays. On occasion, we may be forced to cancel your order for legitimate reasons, for example:

  • if you placed an order and your product subsequently became unavailable;
  • if a technical error occurred during your payment;
  • if there is a manifest error in the product description (e.g. when there is an error regarding the essential characteristics of the product, or when an obviously too low price is displayed);
  • if we find that there has been fraudulent use of your account or related orders;
  • where we reasonably believe that you have violated our GCS.

We will inform you as soon as possible and refund the amount of your item (if already paid by you) in a timely manner.

We may cancel the order or we may end the contract at any time if you break it, but writing to you if:

  • (a) you do not make any payment to us when it is due;
  • (b) you do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information that is necessary for us to provide the products;
  • (c) you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the products to you.

Our distance purchase service as part of a personalized shopping appointment by telephone or videoconference with one of our shops located in the UK is for the promotion and sale of our products in the UK only. Unfortunately, we do not accept orders from addresses outside the UK or deliver to addresses outside the UK. If you are outside the UK and wish to place an order, please visit our website dedicated to your area (if available).

2. Prices of our products

The prices of our products are indicated in GBP, including all taxes, by your advisor during your shopping session. They include Value Added Tax (VAT) and any reductions applicable on the day of your order in respect of our commercial operations.

It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognized by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

It should be noted that sales which may be subject to a VAT refund must be made directly in the shop. No VAT refund request may be honored in the case of purchases made remotely.

3. How to pay for your order ?

Click on the secure payment link that we will send to you by email to pay for your order using your credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, China Unionpay, JCB, Discover, Diners).
After confirmation of your payment by our payment provider, your bank account will be debited for the total amount of your order. Please note that we are not able to dispatch the products to you until after we have received payment.
We would like to reassure you that all your transactions are secure and comply with the legal provisions in force: they take place within a strict framework of confidentiality and encryption of all your data at our payment provider.
We do not, at any time, have access to personal data concerning your payment methods, including credit card details and do not store your payment data on our servers.

4. Delivery of your order

4.1 Where and how can products be delivered to you?

7. What Guarantees for Your Products?

Our products benefit from legal guarantees, namely the legal guarantee of conformity and the guarantee against hidden defects. As a seller, we are indeed obliged:

  1. for non-compliance defects of the products you purchase, under the conditions of Article L.217-4 and following of the Consumer Code. The legal guarantee of conformity applies when your product has a conformity defect, for example when your product does not work in accordance with the usual uses for which this product is intended, or when it does not correspond to the description given;
  2. and for its hidden defects under the conditions of Article 1641 and following of the Civil Code. The guarantee against hidden defects covers you when your product has a hidden defect, meaning a defect not apparent at the time of sale that makes the product unfit for its intended use or that significantly reduces this use.

Please note that the legal guarantee of conformity and the guarantee against hidden defects cannot be applicable in case of misuse of your products or non-compliance with the maintenance conditions of your product (provided on our labels or by our tailors).

>If you act under the legal guarantee of conformity, you:

    • have a period of two (2) years from the delivery of the product to act;
    • can choose between repairing or replacing the product, subject to the cost conditions provided for in Article L.217-9 of the Consumer Code;
    • are exempt from providing proof of the existence of the conformity defect of the goods during the twenty-four (24) months following the delivery of the goods, except for second-hand goods for which the period is twelve (12) months.

The legal guarantee of conformity applies regardless of any commercial warranty that may be granted.

You may decide to implement the guarantee against hidden defects within the meaning of Article 1641 of the Civil Code. In this case, you may choose between cancelling the sale or reducing the sale price in accordance with Article 1644 of the Civil Code.
