This website www.jcassand.com (the “Site”) is operated by JCassand, Inc. (referred to herein as “JCassand,” “we,” “us,” and “our”).  By visiting the Site and/ or purchasing a product from us, you are agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (the “Terms of Service”), including those additional terms and conditions and policies referenced herein and/or available by hyperlink. These Terms of Service apply to all visitors and users of the Site, including without limitation users who are browsers, vendors, customers, merchants, and/ or contributors of content.  In these Terms of Use, “user” or “you” means any user or visitor of the Site.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully before accessing or using our Site.   If you do not agree to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, then you may not access the Site or use any services available thereon, including, but not limited, purchasing products.

Any new features or tools which are added to the Site shall also be subject to the Terms of Service. You can review the most current version of the Terms of Service at any time on this page. We reserve the right to update, change or replace any part of these Terms of Service by posting updates and/or changes to our Site.  It is your responsibility to check this page periodically with respect to any such changes. Your continued use of or access to the Site following the posting of any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes.

The store available on our Site (the “Store”) is hosted by a third party, Shopify, which provides us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products to you.  Shopify’s terms of service found [here] shall supersede these Terms of Service with respect to your access and use of Shopify’s website www.shopify.com, for the purpose of finalizing your purchase and remitting payment.

SECTION 1 – JCASSAND PRODUCTS

JCassand creates signature neckties (the “Products”) and makes them available for purchase exclusively via the Store accessible through the Site.  Products are currently not available for purchase through any other means. 

Products or services may have limited quantities and are subject to return or exchange only according to our Return Policy set forth in Section 3 hereof.  We expressly reserve the right to discontinue any Products at any time. 

We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the colors and images of our Products that appear in the Store; however, we cannot guarantee that your computer’s or other electronic device’s display of color, texture and/or pattern will be accurate.  When you purchase two or more of the same Product, there is a possibility that the Products will not be identical in terms of the cut of the necktie matching up with the pattern placement thereon.

SECTION 2 – PRODUCT ORDERING

Products may be purchased from the Store using the following forms of payment: Credit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Diners Club, Google Pay, JCB, Shopify Pay (Not available to US territories except Puerto Rico) and Venmo.

All in-stock Products will be shipped once credit card authorization and verification have been obtained by Shopify. If an item you ordered is temporarily unavailable, we will immediately advise you when to expect delivery.

Sales/use state and local taxes will be collected upon purchase, based on the order's "ship to" address where required by law. Sales tax will also be applied to shipping and handling charges where required by law. The sales tax displayed at checkout is estimated and the final applicable tax will be calculated when your order is shipped. All applicable taxes will be clearly displayed on your final invoice.

Shipping Zones (Regions and Countries):

Currently, we ship to all the Americas which include North America (USA and Canada), Central America, South America, the Caribbean, all USA territories, APO/FPO addresses and the United Kingdom. Please click [here] for more shipping information.

If you enter a shipping address that's in a region outside our shipping zones, you will be informed that no shipping rate is available for your area.  Please contact customer services for more information or should you have questions.

SECTION 3 - RETURN POLICY

If for any reason you are not happy with your purchase, JCassand will accept returns of unworn, unwashed Products with tags still on and in saleable condition with a valid receipt within 30 days of purchase, unless defective.  Returns will be credited to your original form of payment. If your original form of payment was cash or check, a corporate check may be issued within 7-10 business days. If you do not have a receipt, but the Product is still ticketed and returned within 30 days of purchase, a merchandise credit will be issued for the current selling price, including all applicable discounts and promotions.  JCassand gift cards are not returnable and cannot be redeemed or exchanged for cash or check (unless required by law).

Products may be returned by mail in accordance with the following process:

  • Fill out the Return Form enclosed with your package (noting reason for return on the back) or include your original receipt.
  • Securely seal the Return Form (or original receipt) and the Product(s) you are returning in its original shipping container or other clean and sturdy box.
  • Customers returning goods for other reasons aside from damaged goods, please note that a handling fee of $10.00 will be charged against your original method of payment.
  • A pre-paid return label will be sent via email to customers who notify JCassand of damaged goods. Ship the package via USPS.

The pre-paid shipping label can be used only on packages returned from a U.S. address. You are not required to use the pre-paid label. You may label the package yourself and ship it, pre-paid and insured, using the shipping provider of your choice to: JCassand, Inc., 76 Sutton Street #31, Northbridge, MA 01534.  Please include the Return Form enclosed with your package (noting reason for return on the back) or your original receipt.

Please allow up to two billing cycles for refunds to appear on your credit card statement. Original shipping and handling fees are non-refundable.

We do not accept exchanges. You may return the original item (using the instructions above) and place a new order for the item you want. To ensure the item you want is in stock, we suggest placing a new order for the item you want first then proceed with the return.
