Terms of Service

This website is operated by The Luxe Vault Company ("we", "us", "our"). Throughout the site, these Terms of Service apply to all users, including without limitation browsers, vendors, customers, and merchants. By visiting theluxevaultcompany.com and/or purchasing something from us, you engage in our "Service" and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service, including any additional terms and policies referenced here or available by hyperlink (including our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy). If you do not agree to all the terms and conditions of this agreement, you may not access the website or use any services.

1. Online store terms

By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence. You may not use our products for any illegal or unauthorized purpose, and you may not, in your use of the Service, violate any laws in your jurisdiction (including copyright laws). You must not transmit any worms, viruses, or any code of a destructive nature. A breach of any of these Terms will result in immediate termination of your right to use the Service.

2. General conditions

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone, for any reason, at any time. You understand that your content (excluding payment information) may be transferred unencrypted and involve transmissions over various networks; payment information is always encrypted during transfer over networks. You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, or exploit any portion of the Service without our express written permission.

3. Accuracy, completeness and timeliness of information

We are not responsible if information made available on this site is not accurate, complete, or current. The material on this site is provided for general information only and should not be relied upon as the sole basis for making decisions without consulting more accurate, complete, or timely sources. Any reliance on the material on this site is at your own risk.

4. Modifications to the Service and prices

Prices for our products are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right at any time to modify or discontinue the Service (or any part or content thereof) without notice. We will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the Service.

5. Products

Because we sell pre-owned, one-of-a-kind designer handbags and accessories, most items are available in limited or single-unit quantities and, once sold, may not be restocked. We have made every effort to display the colors and condition of our products as accurately as possible; we cannot guarantee that your device's display of any color, texture, or condition detail will be accurate. We reserve the right to limit the sales of our products to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction, and to discontinue any product at any time.

6. Errors, inaccuracies and omissions

Occasionally there may be information on our site that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions relating to product descriptions, pricing, condition grading, or availability. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions, and to change or update information or cancel orders if any information on the Service is inaccurate at any time without prior notice.

7. Accuracy of billing and account information

We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us, and to limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, household, or order. You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made on our store, and to promptly update your account and other information so we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

8. Authenticity, condition and resale terms

Because The Luxe Vault Company specializes in pre-owned, secondhand designer handbags and accessories, the following terms apply in addition to the sections above:

  • Authentication. Every item listed for sale has been inspected and authenticated by our team (or a third-party authentication service we engage) prior to listing. Despite our diligence, we do not act as agents of the original brand and do not offer a brand-backed guarantee of authenticity beyond our own inspection process.
  • Condition grading. Each product listing includes a condition description (for example, "Excellent," "Very Good," or "Good") along with photos and notes on visible wear. Because these are pre-owned items, minor signs of wear consistent with the stated condition are expected and are not grounds for return unless the item materially differs from its listing.
  • One-of-a-kind inventory. Most items are single units. Once an item sells, an identical replacement may not be available.
  • Sales policy. [State your policy here: e.g., "All sales are final" or "Returns accepted within X days for store credit only, excluding final-sale items."] Please see our separate Refund Policy for full details.
  • Consignment (if applicable). If you consign an item with us, separate consignment terms covering commission, payout timing, and unsold-item handling will apply and will be provided to you at intake.

9. Optional tools

We may provide you with access to third-party tools (such as payment processors, shipping calculators, or authentication partners) that we neither monitor nor have any control or input over. Any use of optional tools offered through the site is entirely at your own risk and discretion, and you should ensure you are familiar with and approve of the terms on which tools are provided by the relevant third-party provider(s).

Certain content and services available via our Service may include materials from third parties. Third-party links on this site may direct you to third-party websites that are not affiliated with us. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or accuracy of third-party materials, and we do not warrant and will not have any liability for any third-party materials or websites, or for any other materials, products, or services of third parties.

11. User comments, feedback and other submissions

If, at our request, you send certain specific submissions (for example, product reviews) or, without a request from us, you send creative ideas, suggestions, proposals, plans, or other materials ("comments"), you agree that we may, at any time, without restriction, edit, copy, publish, distribute, translate, and otherwise use in any medium any comments that you forward to us. We are and shall be under no obligation to maintain any comments in confidence, to pay compensation for any comments, or to respond to any comments. We may, but have no obligation to, monitor, edit, or remove content that we determine to be unlawful, offensive, threatening, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable.

12. Personal information

Your submission of personal information through the store is governed by our Privacy Policy, which you can review at theluxevaultcompany.com/policies/privacy-policy. Set this up (or edit it) under Settings > Policies in your Shopify admin — Shopify provides a free generator you can adapt for a resale business (make sure it covers any authentication or shipping partners you share customer data with).

13. Prohibited uses

In addition to other prohibitions set forth in these Terms of Service, you are prohibited from using the site or its content: (a) for any unlawful purpose; (b) to solicit others to perform or participate in any unlawful acts; (c) to violate any applicable regulations or laws; (d) to infringe upon or violate our intellectual property rights or the intellectual property rights of others; (e) to harass, abuse, insult, harm, defame, slander, disparage, intimidate, or discriminate; (f) to submit false or misleading information (including listing counterfeit items for sale or attempting to misrepresent a product's condition); (g) to upload or transmit viruses or any other type of malicious code; (h) to collect or track the personal information of others; (i) to spam, phish, or scrape; (j) for any obscene or immoral purpose; or (k) to interfere with or circumvent the security features of the Service. We reserve the right to terminate your use of the Service for violating any of the prohibited uses.

14. Disclaimer of warranties; limitation of liability

We do not guarantee, represent, or warrant that your use of our Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free. The Service and all products delivered to you through the Service are (except as expressly stated by us) provided "as is" and "as available" for your use, without any representation, warranties, or conditions of any kind. In no case shall The Luxe Vault Company, our directors, officers, employees, affiliates, or suppliers be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind arising from your use of the Service or any products procured using the Service.

15. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless The Luxe Vault Company and our affiliates from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of these Terms of Service or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.

16. Severability

In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be severed; such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.

17. Termination

Either party may terminate this agreement at any time. We may terminate or suspend access to our Service immediately, without prior notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms of Service or is otherwise harmful to other users, us, or third parties, or for any other reason at our sole discretion.

18. Entire agreement

These Terms of Service, together with any policies or operating rules posted by us on this site (including our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy), constitute the entire agreement between you and us and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and us.

19. Governing law

[Open item — confirm with your own counsel] These Terms of Service and any separate agreements whereby we provide you services shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [your country/state of incorporation or principal place of business].

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to update, change, or replace any part of these Terms of Service by posting updates to our website.
