PRODUCT IMAGES

We try to be accurate with the product images but colours can look different on different screens. Please note that slight colour differences can occur between the real product and images on our webpage.

AVAILABILITY

We make every effort to keep the website up to date so that items on the website are in stock. Sometimes items sell out quicker than expected. We will always try our best to rectify this, and you can always contact us directly by sending us an email on info@theyogamat.com and we will see what we can arrange for you.

DELIVERY

We will endeavour to deliver goods within the times stated but goods are subject to availability and some delays are out of our control. Any dates we specify for delivery of goods are approximate and we shall not be liable for any losses, costs, damages, charges or expenses caused by any delay. You can rest assured that we will work to rectify any delivery problems with the minimal delay.

ORDERS PLACED ON WEEKENDS AND HOLIDAYS

We are not able to process orders on Saturdays, Sundays, Public holidays and our holidays – so if you order on a weekend, we will receive and process your order on the subsequent Monday. Quoted delivery transit times commence from then.

PRICING AND PAYMENT

If a product is advertised at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or a supplier error we reserve the right to refuse or cancel an order whether or not said order has been confirmed. In such a case we will make you aware of this and a full refund will be given, if required. All prices are in Swiss francs and will be converted in your respective currency on checkout  Prices are inclusive of VAT (where breakdown of VAT and net pricing is specified). Prices outside Switzerland do not include any applicable customs duties and/or import taxes. Customers are responsible for these charges if applicable.

If you would like to return your product for refund or exchange you can do so within 14 days of receipt of goods, provided the relevant item(s) has not been handled or used and is returned in a saleable condition with all original packaging intact.

Returns of items with damaged packaging will incur a handling charge to be designated by us on a per product basis.

For non-faulty items please note that, unfortunately, we will not be able to cover the cost of initial shipping, return shipping or replacement shipping.

We are concerned, particularly, with the additional carbon footprint of sending packages back and forth.

This does not affect your statutory rights.
