The Fine Print

The following Terms and Conditions, aka The FINE PRINT, between LUX BOX Company Inc., a Maine corporation (“LUX BOX”, “We” or “Us”), and the customer (“Customer” or “You”) are effective on the date the written proposal is accepted by you in writing or payment (“Effective Date”).

 

1. ABOUT ORDERS

ORDER MINIMUM

Custom gift orders require a minimum of 24 units at $35 per unit or an invoice totaling $750 excluding shipping and taxes. Standard products, such as our Bathroom Amenities Tray, our Comeback Kit, and LUX BOX Ready Made Gifts have no minimum order requirements and can be purchased directly on our website SHOP page.

TIMEFRAME FOR CUSTOM ORDERS

Each order by LUX BOX is carefully curated and designed to our clients’ specifications and within their budget. We hold limited product inventory, as we are a project-based gifting company. Customers should expect lead times of 2-4 weeks for the design, proposal and approval process, followed by 2-3 weeks for ordering, customization, assembly and shipping.

RUSH ORDERS

We will try to accommodate rush orders when possible based on product availabilities and design requirements. All costs related to expediting the order will be the responsibility of the client.

 

2. ABOUT GIFTS

TYPES OF GIFTS

We design gifts for all the events in your life. LUX BOX provides gifts for corporate, non-profit and all types of social events. Please visit our Portfolio on our website luxboxco.com to see some examples of our prior projects. Custom gift boxes usually start around $35.00 per unit.

NOT ONLY BOXES

In addition to boxes, LUX BOX provides gifts in bags, totes and baskets. We are open to any vessel that may be appropriate to your vision.

GIFT ASSEMBLY

Gift assembly is included with all customized orders. Assembly costs will vary by project and are determined by the required steps to put a gift order together.

CUSTOMIZATION WORK

Many of our orders include customization work. All custom work will be done exactly as the client submits it. If something looks funny to us, we will let you know as soon as possible but we cannot catch everything. Names and addresses are trickier as the spellings vary. It is your responsibility to provide LUX BOX with clear and organized names and addresses, and to double check that all information is spelled correctly prior to sending us the document.

PRODUCTS SUPPLIED BY CUSTOMER

We do allow customer-supplied items for an agreed-upon handling fee per unit. A product provided by the customer has to be received by LUX BOX at least 14 days prior to the set delivery date. We are not responsible for the shipping of products supplied by you or the damage to the products supplied by you incurred during shipping. We highly recommend you order a few extra items.

MELTDOWNS IN SUMMERTIME

We are careful about putting chocolate or any melting goodies in gift boxes during the summer months (May 1st to October 1st) in our orders that required shipping. Meltdowns are not an issue for orders delivered by LUX BOX via our fully air-conditioned vehicles. We will try to advise you if we think a product could melt. We may also advise you to use cold packs during shipping. In this case, the cold packs cost would be an additional fee under shipping material and handling. Please note that items subject to meltdowns are ordered at your own risk. LUX BOX cannot guarantee the quality of these products upon their arrival. LUX BOX will not issue a refund due to meltdowns.

PRODUCT SUBSTITUTIONS

Between the proposal and the ordering process, it may be necessary for us to substitute a chosen product for another product due to unavailability, late arrival, damaged at arrival or other unforeseen reasons. Should this occur, we will advise you immediately and we would propose to substitute the unavailable product with another product of equal or greater value. There would be no change in the agreed upon order amount, unless the substitute product is of lesser value. In that case LUX BOX would issue a credit on the final invoice. If no appropriate substitute is found, the product will be simply omitted and a credit will be issued on the final invoice.

FOOD ALLERGY

Food products included in an order are generally properly labeled by the manufacturer to notify the consumer of any allergens. Any non-labeled food always has the risk of possible allergen contamination. We encourage all customers to read all product labels where available, when no detailed labels are available we encourage you to take no risk. LUX BOX will not be held responsible for adverse reactions to food consumption whether it is labeled or not labeled.

SAMPLE GIFT BOX

Upon request, we can provide a sample gift box of our accepted proposal. We are happy to do it, just contact us so we can make the arrangement. A fee may apply.

 

3. ABOUT DELIVERY & SHIPPING

DELIVERY BY LUX BOX

We offer delivery services to hotels, conference centers, businesses and residences. Delivery charges are based on the number of stops and distances. We will provide you with pricing upon request. Delivery charges are always additional and never included in our box unit price. When we deliver at a residence, we do not require a signature. If the residence door is unanswered, we will leave the package at the door unless instructed otherwise. By permitting LUX BOX to leave the order at the residence door, you will be deemed to have accepted delivery. For hotel or business delivery, we need to know who will be receiving the order and signing the delivery slip. We are not responsible for the order once the delivery has been accepted. Any additional hotel fee that may apply to deliver gifts in guest rooms is not included in delivery fees. LUX BOX will not offer refunds or credit for unclaimed or lost orders, once delivery has been accepted.

PICK-UP ORDERS AT LUX BOX

We also offer clients the option to pick up their order directly at our studio in Portland, Maine at no cost.

SHIPPING

We work with FedEx, UPS, and USPS to ship orders. Shipping is calculated based on size and weight. At times, shipping insurance may be suggested. All shipping supplies and handling fees will be applied to the shipping invoice. We will do our best to give you an accurate shipping cost estimate during the proposal process.

SHIPPING AND DELIVERY ADDRESSES

It is the Client’s responsibility to provide LUX BOX with complete and accurate names and addresses to insure on-time delivery. We require name of recipient, street address, apartment #, city, state and zip code. It is necessary to include the recipients phone number for all international shipping. LUX BOX will not be responsible for late delivery and reshipping fees for returned packages due to an incorrect address provide by the client. If the error is made by LUX BOX, we will cover all re-shipping fees.

 

4. ABOUT BUSINESS TERMS

TERMS OF PAYMENT

Once the final gift proposal is accepted, we require a minimum 50% deposit on the date of acceptance of the written proposal. At the time of delivery, we require the 50% balance and any delivery or shipping fee incurred. If the project has a short turn around (within 3 weeks of accepting contract to shipping/delivery date) we request full payment upfront. We accept credit cards, checks, cash and money orders.

CANCELLATION POLICY

If you need to cancel your order after LUX BOX has received your 50% deposit, LUX BOX will refund your deposit less all items purchased and design time incurred for your project up to receiving your cancellation request.

CHANGE ORDER

If you need to increase the quantity of units please let LUX BOX know as soon as possible and we will do our best to accommodate the change. If you need to decrease the quantity of units on your custom order after it has been placed, LUX BOX cannot go under the agreed upon quantity on the invoice.
