INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIGHT OF CANCELLATION

Statutory Right to cancel

You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days for any reason.

The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us, Albion Books, 84 Murasaki St., 92617-4089, Irvine, California, U.S.A., +1 949-381-8798, of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You may use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

Effects of cancellation

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Albion Books, Irvine, California, U.S.A., +1 949-381-8798, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Exceptions to the right of cancellation

The right of cancellation does not apply to:

1. the delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
2. the supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not cancel it once delivery had started.

Shipping costs are based on books of average size. All orders to California addresses will be charged California sales tax of 7.75% at the time of order placement through a separate e-mail notification. Domestic shipping is at cost, usually $4.00 for normal octavo sized books via Media surface mail. Large heavy items requiring extra postage will be quoted separately to the buyer when placing an order through ABE. Priority Mail is $10.00. This price will only be charged if the book will not fit into a smaller flat rate envelope. If the book does fit into the smaller envelope Albion Books will adjust the cost to the customer down to the normal $5.50 flat rate charge before processing the order. This avoids having to query the customer in order to approve extra shipping charges. If the book is too large to fit into the $10.00 flat rate box the buyer will be quoted actual costs based on their postal zone and the weight from Irvine, California. For international orders Global Priority shipping is used when the book will fit into the standard large Global Priority envelope and Global Priority services are available to that destination. For books too large to fit the GPM envelope the buyer will be quoted extra postage charges based on the Parcel Post Air rate, always considerably higher than the Global Priority rate. All flat rate Global Priority mailings are $25.00 to all countries except Canada and Mexico, which are $23.00. Albion Books will adjust downward the airmail shipping from the listed rate at the time of order placement if the book will fit into the flat rate envelope. An ABE e-mail will inform the buyer of this lower rate. We do not recommend economy surface mail for international posting due to the extreme slowness of this method and the high risk for fraud.
