Availability of Artwork or Product

In such event, Moda Ventures Pte Ltd will contact you to inform you of the same, and arrange to effect full refund of the Price paid, and shall bear no liability for any damage,  loss, cost, expense, or compensation, save for the refund of the payment made by you to Moda Ventures Pte Ltd for the Price.

Delivery charges vary depending on the destination address. The delivery charge will be in addition to the Price. You agree to pay the delivery charge as stated on the payment page.
  1. Delivery may be made at your stipulated address on weekdays as well as on weekends. If delivery is made to the stipulated address, and you are not present to take delivery, you agree that whoever is present at the stipulated address may take delivery of the artwork or product. If there is no one present to take delivery of the artwork or product when delivery is made to the stipulated address, you agree that leaving the artwork or product at or within the vicinity of the front door of the stipulated address shall constitute valid delivery and acceptance of the artwork or product.
