TRANSACTIONAL TERMS

The following additional Terms apply to Farm Boy websites which permit online ordering or purchasing of goods or services, which includes the purchase of any pre paid cards (“Transactional Sites”). If there is a conflict between these Transactional Terms and the terms above, these Transactional Terms will control.  If there is a conflict between these Terms and the FAQs, these Terms will control.

Farm Boy may, in its sole discretion, accept or reject any order placed on a Transactional Site. All offerings on Transactional Sites are invitations to purchase and not offers to sell. Any online confirmation of receipt of an order after placement is an acknowledgement of receipt of the order but not an acceptance of the order, which will be delivered via email to the email associated with your order or by telephone to the telephone number associated (“Contacted”).

Farm Boy may, in its sole discretion, cancel an order you have placed on a Transactional Site after Farm Boy has accepted it, in which case you will be contacted. If Farm Boy cancels your order, Farm Boy will have no obligation to fulfill it and you will have no obligation to pay for it. Farm Boy may in some circumstances require additional information or verification before accepting or fulfilling an order, in which case you will be contacted.

Subject to applicable laws, (a) purchase of products on the Transactional Sites is subject to availability. If product(s) are not available, Farm Boy will have no obligation to fulfill an order for them and you will have no obligation to pay Farm Boy for them; and (b) Farm Boy reserves the right to change the products, prices and descriptions advertised or displayed through any Transactional Site, at any time without notice or liability to you.

Farm Boy seeks to be accurate in product descriptions but does not represent or warrant that product descriptions or other content on Transactional Sites are accurate, reliable, current, or complete.

Farm Boy reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to limit quantities of items purchased per person, per household or per order or otherwise from time to time. You will be contacted if such limits or prohibitions are applied to an order by you.

In respect of Transactional Sites on which it is possible to order products which under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction require you to be of a certain age (for example, the age of majority) in that jurisdiction (for example, beer and wine), only persons of that age in the applicable jurisdiction may place orders for such products, and by placing such an order you represent and warrant that you are of the applicable age.

Methods of payment applicable to any particular order are indicated on the applicable Transactional Site. You authorize Farm Boy to process payment of the applicable purchase price via the payment mechanism you select from the available choices, and you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the applicable card. If your payment is by credit card and is rejected by the card issuer or processor, your order will not be filled and Farm Boy will have no obligation in respect of it.

The version of these Terms (including without limitation the Transaction Terms) applicable to an order or other transaction by you on a Transactional Site is that in effect on the date and at the time you place your order, as made available on the applicable Transactional Site at that time. Each time you place an order, you represent and warrant that you have accessed, read and accepted the then-applicable terms governing that order.
