When you use the DC Golds website or place an order, you agree to our Terms & Conditions. They exist to give you a high standard of service and an understanding of what to expect. We trust that your experience with DC Golds will be pleasurable, and we hope that you will get in touch if you encounter difficulty at any stage. Here are our legal Terms and Conditions.

ABOUT OUR COMPANY

This website is operated by DC Golds Ltd.  Our Registered Office and store is at 4 Pl. Franz Liszt, 75010 Paris, France and 1068 & 1070,, Cnr Congo & Tiyende Pamodzi Road, Chingola 10101, Zambia.

PLACING AN ORDER  

When you place an order, you will enter into a contract with DC Golds. This means:  

  1. You will initially receive an email with the details of your order in it. This is not an order acceptance or confirmation.
  2. Meanwhile, we will request pre-authorization from your bank/card issuer for the funds needed for the payment. But we will not take anything yet.
  3. If we cannot accept your order (this may be, for example, because we’ve unexpectedly run out of stock), we will get in touch and try to find a solution. If you change your mind at this point, give us a call – it is not always possible to stop despatch, but you are able to return the item.  Also see ‘Returns’, below.
  4. You’ll receive a dispatch confirmation. Our acceptance of your order, at this point, creates a legally binding contract between us and you. (This contract may only be entered into by an adult aged 18 and over.  Under 18’s are not permitted to order on our website.)
  5. We take payment when your order is shipped.
PRICING AND DELIVERY  

Our prices are set out on our website in US Dollar, including VAT and sales tax.   You’ll be billed in US Dollar.  

If you order from outside France and Congo, additional costs may be incurred, because exchange rates and card charges will affect the amount billed to your card.  We are unable to take responsibility for the actions of local customs authorities and you are responsible for paying the appropriate import duties and taxes.  In good news, our prices include sales tax of 20%, which is not payable if you order outside the European Union.  

Our delivery charges are displayed before checkout (and below).  Due to carrier restrictions, we can’t deliver to some locations.  (Call us if you are worried about it.)  

On the delivery date, our carrier will deliver your order to the address you gave us when you made your order.  Please take extra care to ensure that it is correct and that you or someone you trust will be able to pick up delivery of the order.  

Once received by you, the goods are legally owned by you (providing we’ve received payment in full).  After delivery, we are not responsible for loss or damage.    

SIMPLE RETURNS  

On receipt, have a close look at the items you’ve ordered.  We trust you will be delighted but, if you aren’t, you’re welcome to return them within 21 days.    

You don’t need to give us any reason, or pay any fees, to do this.    

All you need to do is:  

Email info@dcgoldint.com   

We will accept the return, providing:  
  1. The item is not a bespoke, personalised, or made-to-measure order, which cannot be returned.
  2. You haven’t worn or damaged the goods.
  3. You haven’t removed any security tags from the goods.
  4. You contact DC Golds within 21 days of delivery to obtain a Returns Authorization number (RA).
How to return your goods:  
  1. Please return them within 21 days of obtaining the RA number.
  2. Make sure that the goods are in their original condition, then securely wrap in the original packaging, including our delivery slip.
  3. Follow our instructions to return via our delivery partner.
  4. You will receive a full refund including the original delivery charges.  We are unable to refund sales taxes or import duties on orders placed outside the EU. We will process your refund as quickly as possible, and refund to the original card used for your order.
What if you miss the 21 days deadline?  

You can still return your item, if you obtained an RA number (as above).    

Your responsibility for returns  

Return of items is at your own risk, so it is your responsibility to ensure that the goods are insured when returned to us.  You are obliged to keep the goods in your possession until you return them to us, and to take all reasonable care of the goods.  If you fail to do this we might have to consider claiming compensation from you.    

This does not affect your statutory rights.  

DELIVERY CHARGES  

We offer free delivery for all orders shipped within France and Congo using Royal Mail, Brinks, DHL, FEDEX and other Delivery Service.

Generally, it takes 2-3 working days to dispatch the order. However, if you have any urgent orders you can contact us by email info@dcgoldint.com.

You can also avail our Guaranteed Next Day Delivery. We provide guaranteed next day delivery service (by 1 pm the following day) for orders placed before 1 pm. The order will be insured for and completely secured.

CANCELLATION OF ORDERS  

In very rare and exceptional circumstances, we may be forced to cancel an order.  

This may be before or after order confirmation, and it might be because:  

  1. We have insufficient stock
  2. We do not deliver to your area
  3. One or more of the goods you ordered was listed at an incorrect price (eg. typographical error or an error by one of our suppliers).

If we are forced to do this, we will contact you by email and/or telephone to see if we can offer an alternative or other solution.  

If we have taken payment, we will return it as soon as possible, and certainly within 21 days of order.   We are not liable to you or a third party, and will not be obliged to pay compensation, for order cancellations.
