We may update these Terms at any time. The “Last Updated” date above reflects the latest version. Your continued use of the Platform after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.

4. Terms of Sale
This section governs your purchase of products from Sutter & Vale.
4.1 Product Information
We curate products from multiple luxury manufacturers. Descriptions, photos, dimensions, finishes and lead times are based on information provided by our vendors.
Colors can vary due to screen settings, lighting and natural variation in materials. Natural materials such as wood, stone, ceramic and metal may have inherent variations. These variations are not considered defects.
4.2 Pricing and Availability
All prices are in U.S. dollars unless stated otherwise. We try to keep pricing and availability accurate, but errors can occur. We reserve the right to:
-
Correct any error, including pricing or description errors
-
Cancel any order affected by such error, even after submission
-
Change pricing or availability without notice
If we cancel an order after your payment has been processed due to an error, we will issue a refund to your original payment method.
All products are subject to availability. Many items are made to order or shipped directly from the manufacturer. If an item becomes unavailable or is discontinued, we may cancel that portion of your order and issue a refund.
4.3 Payment and Billing
By providing a payment method, you represent that you are authorized to use it and that you authorize us or our payment processor to charge it for the full amount of your order, including applicable taxes, shipping and fees.
We accept the payment methods displayed at checkout. Payment is typically captured at the time of order to secure inventory and commit special orders with our vendors.
If your payment method fails, your order may be delayed or cancelled.
4.4 Order Confirmation and Changes
After you place an order, you should receive an order confirmation email. If you do not receive it within 24 hours, contact us.
Review your confirmation carefully. You may request changes within 24 hours after placing the order, provided the order has not yet been released to the manufacturer or shipped. After that, changes may not be possible or may be treated as cancellations or returns subject to the policies described below.
4.5 Cancellations
-
Special orders: Orders for special order or made-to-order items cannot be cancelled once the order has been submitted to the manufacturer.
-
In-stock items: Orders for in-stock, non special order items may be cancelled before shipment by contacting us. If the item has already shipped, the order will be handled under our Returns and Refunds Policy.
If we cannot ship your order within a reasonable extension of the estimated lead time, we may cancel the order or allow you to cancel for a refund.
4.6 Taxes
We collect sales tax where required by law based on the shipping address. In some jurisdictions, we may also be required to collect tax on shipping charges.
4.7 Shipping and Delivery
Shipping methods, fees and estimated timeframes are described in our Shipping Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms. Shipping times are estimates provided by manufacturers and carriers and are not guaranteed.
Responsibility for inspection and reporting of damage or defects on delivery is covered in our Returns, Refunds and Damages Policy.
4.8 Manufacturer Warranties and No Store Warranty
Many products are covered by manufacturer warranties. Any such warranty is provided by the manufacturer, not Sutter & Vale.
-
Sutter & Vale does not provide any additional warranties.
-
We may assist you in communicating with the manufacturer, but the decision to repair, replace or otherwise address a warranty claim is made by the manufacturer under its terms.
See section 4.11 and the Returns, Refunds and Damages Policy for details.
4.9 Returns and Refunds
Our Returns, Refunds and Damages Policy is incorporated into these Terms. In summary:
-
Special order items are final sale and not returnable.
-
Certain in-stock, non special order items may be eligible for return in unused, resellable condition, within the specified timeframes and subject to restocking fees and nonrefundable shipping.
-
All requests must follow the procedures in the Returns, Refunds and Damages Policy.
4.10 Promotions and Exclusions
From time to time, we may offer promotions or discount codes subject to specific terms. Promotions may exclude certain brands, categories, special orders or already discounted items. Promotions may not be applied to prior purchases unless expressly stated.
4.11 Damaged, Defective or Incorrect Items
If an item arrives damaged, defective or incorrect, you must follow the claims process set forth in the Returns, Refunds and Damages Policy, including the inspection obligations, photo documentation and 48 hour reporting window.
We work with the manufacturer and carriers to determine the appropriate remedy. Where possible, items are repaired to factory standards. Replacement is available only when a repair technician or manufacturer determines that repair cannot restore the product to factory standard.
