SHIPPING AND PAYMENT

 

On this site, including these Terms and Conditions, when we use the phrase “free shipping”, we mean that the shipping fee is included in the sale price of the merchandise sold. In such case, there is no additional shipping cost to you.

You assume all responsibility of any goods F.O.B (ie. upon pickup by our selected carrier).

We only accept payment for online orders through PayPal and other major forms of credit cards and online forms of payment indicated upon checkout. 

 

DELIVERY AND PAYMENT

 

Deliveries will be made as soon as possible to the address on your order and are “best effort” based depending on the selected shipment method you selected (standard or express). Subject to delays outside our control, the overall delivery period will not exceed 30 days. When you purchase merchandise from the site, we will then, as your agent, provide a carrier to ship your merchandise and contact the carrier on your behalf. You assume all responsibility of any goods F.O.B. Upon pickup of the merchandise by our selected carrier from our shipping centre, risk of loss is transferred from us to you at this point. On average, deliveries should typically arrive within 5-12 working business days from the date your order has been shipped from our office if you selected standard delivery. If you chose express it should take approximately 3-6 business days after the order has been fulfilled and shipped. 

 

COOLING-OFF PERIOD


You may return any products ordered by you provided that you send us a return request within fourteen (14) days following the confirmed delivery of your order (“the Return Period”), and provided that you live in Canada or the Unites States and the items were not purchased at a promotional discount valued at 20% off or more off regular price. If you return the products you are obliged to comply with the requirement of our Returns Policy (below). You must return all the products in their original packaging provided when they were delivered to you. Between the date of your election to withdraw and the date the product is returned by you to us, you shall bear all risk in keeping the products safe, secure, and free from loss or damage.

 

WARRANTY

Our 1 year warranty applies to and is in effect 365 days after the delivery of your order, at which point the warranty expires. It covers manufacturing defects and issues and does not cover accidental damage resulting from heat exposure, temperature damage, usage of harmful cleaning chemicals or abrasive cleaning cloths, impact from accidental drops and other like effects. We reserve the right to request proof and photos of the manufacturing defect and will make a determination of whether it deems to be covered under our warranty.

In the event the frames arrive damaged upon delivery with a manufacturing or quality defect, you must notify us at help@kaytran.com within 14 days of delivery with proof of photos of the damage. We will then assess the damage for coverage under warranty and issue a replacement of the same frame. 


 

RETURNS POLICY

 

Had a change of heart? Don't fret. We want you to be happy with your purchase and 100% satisfied. We have a hassle-free return policy so that you can order frames and, if you’re not satisfied, return them in their original packaging with their complimentary accessories shipped to you, provided that the return request is sent to us within fourteen (14) days after the date your order is delivered & the item(s) were not purchased with a promotional discount code valued at 20% off or more. We cover the shipping cost as long as you live within North America. All returns for refunds are subject to a $12 restocking fee per pair of eyewear which is deducted from the refund. Original shipping charges paid are excluded from the refund also.

 

International orders outside of North America are a final sale. 


We will issue a full refund or replacement of goods in all instances where:

1.            frames or related products are supplied damaged;

2.            the products you have ordered are returned to us as undeliverable by the postal service; and

3.           return requests for undamaged product(s) in their original merchantable condition are made within fourteen (14) days following the delivery of your order.

 

We are currently unable to accept returns of frames if:

  1. the frames or the complimentary accessories are not in their original merchantable condition.
  2. the return requests for the frames and the complimentary accessories are made more than fourteen (14) days after the date of delivery
  3. Any orders purchased with a combined discount of 20% or more off regular price is a Final Sale and cannot be returned for a refund
  4. If you return the eyewear for an Exchange, please note the exchanged eyewear are a Final Sale.
  5. International orders placed outside of Canada + USA. 

 

How do I make a return and when will the refund be made?

  • In all instances (except returns related to undeliverables) you should contact our customer services through email at help@kaytran.com to request a return.
  • We will supply you with a prepaid return label through email (provided you live within Canada or the USA)
  • Print the return label, package the eyewear in a shipping bag or box and drop it off with the specified carrier. *Returned merchandise must be dropped off at the shipping carrier within 7 days after the label is sent to you.
  • A refund or replacement will be issued to you following their receipt at our address within seven (7) working business days of that date, less the  restocking fees. Original shipping charges paid are excluded from the refund.
  • If goods are returned as undeliverable by the postal service, you will be contacted by email and phone for confirmation of the delivery address. If no reply is received within a reasonable period and in any event within fourteen (14) working business days of the return of the goods, then a refund will be made within seven (7) working business days of that date.


We may refuse to accept future orders from those who have made previous unsubstantiated claims for non-delivery of goods. Refunds will be limited to the maximum value of the original order less the restocking fee, excludes original delivery charges and will only be issued against the same credit or debit card account as supplied to pay for the goods. We reserve the right to proportionately reduce the level of the refund if only some of the original quantity of products is returned, or if it is clear that some of the products have been used or damaged.
