3. Product Information and Sales
All products displayed on basichandtools.com are offered for sale subject to availability. We make every effort to provide accurate and up-to-date information regarding product descriptions, specifications, and images. However, we do not warrant that product descriptions, images, or other content on the site are entirely accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. Images are provided for illustrative purposes only and may not precisely reflect the actual product. In the event that a product is listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information due to a typographical error or error in pricing or product information received from our suppliers, we shall have the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for that product.
We strive to ensure that the products offered meet high standards of quality and craftsmanship. However, as tools are subject to wear and tear with use, we cannot guarantee that products will be free from all minor imperfections, which do not affect their functionality. Our relationship with our suppliers includes a commitment to maintaining accurate inventory levels and product specifications, and any changes to product availability will be reflected on the website as soon as reasonably possible. We reserve the right to limit the quantities of any products we offer, and to discontinue any product at any time.

Acceptance of your order will occur when we dispatch the products to you or when we otherwise notify you that we have accepted your order.
We reserve the right to refuse service or cancel orders in our sole discretion, including, without limitation, if we believe the customer’s conduct violates applicable law, is harmful to our interests, or if there are errors in product information or pricing. We also reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in our sole judgment, appear to be placed by dealers, resellers, or distributors without our prior authorization.
