6) The Vendor agrees to confirm and/or deny the availability of Product(s) ordered by the Buyer within 5 days of receipt of the information referred to in paragraph 5).

The order will be invalidated for the other Buyers.

7) Once the availability of the Product(s) is confirmed or denied by the Vendor, an email is sent by Saguaro Gallery to the Buyer to inform him.

8) In the event of confirmation of availability of the Product(s) by Saguaro Gallery, the condition subsequent tied to the sales contract between the Buyer and Saguaro Gallery is lifted; Saguaro Gallery agrees to deliver the Products or make them available at the point of sale within the period specified once Saguaro Gallery confirms receipt of payment.

In the absence of confirmation of availability of the Product(s) within the period referred to in point 6), or non-receipt of payment by Saguaro Gallery within 5 business days from the date of order, the contract between the Buyer and Saguaro Gallery is automatically terminated and both parties shall be released from its requirements. In particular, the Buyer is assured that his bank account will not be charged.

However, only the contract for the sale of unavailable Products falls within this resolution.

In the event of confirmation of the availability of all or some of the Products ordered by the Buyer and confirmation of receipt of payment by Saguaro Gallery if the Buyer chose this method of payment, the Products are shipped by Saguaro Gallery or picked up by the Buyer in the manner laid down in Article 4.

2- Price and payment

The purchase price of the Product is determined by Saguaro Gallery. It is stated in Euros on the description, incl. tax, but excluding shipping costs that will be specified during the shopping cart confirmation. If customs duties, local taxes or import duties are payable, these rights are the responsibility of the Buyer and under its full responsibility, both in terms of returns and payments to the authorities / competent bodies. It is responsible to check with the relevant authorities.

The Buyer will be charged the price for the Product purchased plus delivery charges once Saguaro Gallery has confirmed the availability of said Product. In the event of unavailability of the Product, the Buyer will not be charged, and the payment will be canceled.

3- Security of payments

Saguaro Gallery has chosen powerful and strict tools in terms of securing payment methods. Saguaro Gallery has adopted as a payment method the Stripe System, using the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and 3D Secure encryption method, currently the most efficient security systems, and establishing an encrypted connection directly between the Buyer and the bank.

Saguaro Gallery has, in no event, access to confidential information relating to the payment method that the Customer uses during checkout. That is why the Customer's bank details will be requested for each new order. In fact, only Stripe has the confidential information which remains inaccessible to third parties.
