All discounts and offers (including exchange offers) are by the Seller/Brand and not by Spashal.
  • Placement of order by a Buyer with a Seller on the Platform is an offer to buy the product(s) by the Buyer to the Seller and it shall not be construed as Seller's acceptance of Buyer’s offer to buy the product(s) ordered.

Any transaction price paid by the Buyer in case of such cancellation by the Seller shall be refunded to the Buyer. Further, the Seller may cancel an order wherein the quantities exceed the typical individual consumption.
