Only upon Luna Love indicating acceptance of your order, either by delivering the Goods to you or allowing you to collect them, will an agreement of sale between you and Luna Love come into effect (the “Sale”).

Luna Love will indicate the rejection of your order by cancelling it and, as soon as possible thereafter, refunding you for any amount already paid.

5.7. In the case of Goods for sale as sourced from a third party, Luna Love relies on inventory information supplied by the relevant third party and Luna Love accordingly bears no liability for any inaccuracies in the information supplied to it. Consequently, should you order any Goods which are in fact sold-out or should the third party terminate a product line as offered on the Website, Luna Love undertakes to deliver the missing Goods within 5 days of such Goods being restocked. Where a product line has been discontinued, your respective rights and obligations are set out in these Terms and Conditions and more specifically in the refunds policy as incorporate therein.
