We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order prior to delivery. Some situations that may result in your order being cancelled include system or typographical errors, inaccuracies in product or pricing information or product availability, fairness among customers where supplies are limited, or problems identified by our credit or fraud departments. We also may require additional verification or information before accepting an order. We will contact you if any portion of your order is cancelled or if additional information is required to accept your order. If your order is cancelled after we have processed your payment but prior to delivery, we will refund your payment within 10 working days after confirming and notifying you of the refund (the actual timing of the refund may depend on the relevant bank or other payment institution).
E. Payments and Billing. You may complete the payments for the Disney Products via Alipay, WeChat Pay, Internet banking payment or any other option of payment channels acceptable to us. When you provide payment information, you represent and warrant that the information is accurate, that you are authorized to use the payment method provided, and that you will notify us of changes to the payment information. We reserve the right to utilize third party payment card updating services to obtain current expiration dates on credit cards and debit cards.
If we do not receive any amount payable by you, we will not be liable for any delay in delivery of or any failure to deliver the corresponding Disney Products.

You may refer to Disney’s terms and conditions on cancellation of orders and return and replacement of the Products for specific categories of the Products, which terms and conditions will be made available to you in writing separately.
G. Pricing; Taxes. The pricing for the Disney Products shall be the pricing specifically shown to you on or together with the Disney Products, unless it is manifestly erroneous. While we will try to ensure the accuracy of the pricing information, errors may not be avoided sometimes. We will inform you of such errors if we are aware of such errors when we process your order for any Disney Products. You have the right to either cancel that order, or reconfirm that order with the corrected pricing. If we cannot get in touch with you, your order will be deemed cancelled. If you have already paid for your order, we will refund your payment within 10 working days after confirming and notifying you of the refund (the actual timing of the refund may depend on the relevant bank or other payment institution). Even if we have already confirmed your order in writing, if the pricing is manifestly erroneous, which should not cause misunderstandings and should have been reasonably noticed by you, we shall have no obligation to offer the relevant Disney Products to you at such manifestly erroneous pricing.
We may revise the pricing for the Disney Products we offer at any time, without affecting any orders that we have already confirmed in writing.
Value-added taxes shall be paid for the Disney Products sold by us to you. Unless otherwise clearly indicated, the pricing for the Disney Products shall all be inclusive of value-added taxes, but not inclusive of freight charges. Freight charges may be separately charged and added to the total amount payable by you according to our freight policies.
You have the right to request for value-added tax invoices when you purchase the Disney Products according to applicable laws. You need to provide us with necessary invoicing details when you request for value-added tax invoices.
