RISK OF LOSS
All purchases of physical items from Sister2sister.Online are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier.
RETURNS, REFUNDS AND TITLE
Sister2sister.Online does not take title to returned items until the item arrives at our fulfillment center. At our discretion, a refund may be issued without requiring a return. In this situation, emitest does not take title to the refunded item.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS
Sister2sister.Online attempts to be as accurate as possible. However, Sister2sister.Online does not warrant that product descriptions or other content of any Sister2sister.Online Service is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. If a product offered by emitest itself is not as described, your sole remedy is to return it in unused condition.
PRICING
“List Price” means the suggested retail price of a product as provided by a manufacturer, supplier, or seller. We regularly check List Prices against prices recently found on emitest and other retailers. Certain products may have a “Was Price” displayed, which is determined using recent price history of the product on emitest.
With respect to items sold by emitest, we cannot confirm the price of an item until you order. Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items in our catalog may be mispriced. If the correct price of an item sold by Sister2sister.Online is higher than our stated price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation. Other merchants may follow different policies in the event of a mispriced item.

DISPUTES
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of any Sister2sister.Online Service, or to any products or services sold or distributed by Sister2sister.Online or through Sister2sister.Online.com will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Terms & Conditions of Use as a court would.
We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
