Except as otherwise provided in these Terms of Use, you accept all risk of loss, theft or damage to the products you purchase once they have been delivered to the delivery address specified in your order. In the event that you designate another person to accept the product on your behalf, you will be deemed to have received the product upon that acceptance.

If you refuse or fail to accept delivery of any products you order, with the exception of refusals related to visible delivery damages or due to any of the reasons stated in the Cancellation and Return Policy set out below, any risk of loss, theft or damage will pass to you, and not limiting any other rights or remedies Samsung has, Samsung:

Except as otherwise provided in these Terms of Use, you accept all risk of loss, theft or damage to the products you purchase once they have been picked up by you.

7. DELIVERY POLICY

a. General Delivery/Shipping Terms

Samsung will deliver products to valid shipping addresses located within Canada only. Samsung does not deliver to P.O. Boxes nor to all areas of Canada.

Delivery will be affected by Scheduled Carrier Delivery or Parcel Delivery, depending on the type of product purchased as indicated at checkout.

Delivery fees may apply to your purchase. Your delivery fee will be calculated at checkout.

If you do not receive your order within the estimated delivery time specified in your shipping confirmation email, please click here to track your order. While Samsung will make a reasonable effort to deliver your products within the estimated delivery time specified in your shipping confirmation email, Samsung does not guarantee delivery by that time.

You must provide a proper shipping address as entered in your order. Failure to provide proper shipping information could result in additional shipping charges for resending the products and/or delays. For residences that have an apartment/condo unit or suite, place this number in front of your street address to ensure that the carrier has the correct information.  Buzzer codes or special instructions should be placed on Address Line 2.

In the event of re-shipping due to inaccurate shipping information provided to Samsung, or if a product was returned to Samsung because it was refused, you will be held liable for all additional shipping charges and any other applicable charges as set out in these Terms of Use. Delivery charges are not refundable unless your order is cancelled in accordance with these Terms of Use.

Please Note: Once you have received your product, you have 48 hours to report concealed or carrier damage. See section 9(c) (Dead-on-Arrival, Damaged-on-Arrival or Defective Products) of these Terms of Use, below.

Samsung, as well as SES and BOPIS Partner locations will refuse the return of any product that has been abused or used for non-intended purposes, or that is not covered by, or has damage that is specifically excluded by, the manufacturer’s limited warranty applicable to your product.

b. Parcel Delivery

All products that are not delivered by Scheduled Carrier Delivery company, as determined by Samsung, will be delivered to you by Parcel Delivery free of charge, provided that your total order amount (before taxes) is at least $50. If your Parcel Delivery order total is less than $50 before taxes, a $4.95 delivery fee will apply.

The exact date and time of delivery cannot be guaranteed. Tracking information may be available once shipment starts. Please note that a signature may be required upon receipt of your order.

If you have elected to have a default or pre-set “signature not required” signature option with the carrier delivery company, then the product(s) will be deemed to have been delivered to you when delivered to your door (as evidenced by the carrier delivery company’s proof of delivery). Samsung will not be liable for any claim that the product has been lost, misplaced or has otherwise failed to be delivered to you as you have waived the requirement for the carrier to obtain a signature.

NEITHER SAMSUNG NOR SES OR BOPIS PARTNERS SHALL IN ANY WAY BE RESPONSIBLE IF ANY PRODUCT OR EXTERNAL CARTON OF THE PRODUCT DISPLAYS DAMAGE, TAMPERING OR ABUSE WHICH IS NOT NOTED AT THE TIME OF DELIVERY OR STORE PICKUP.

e. Missing Products or Components for Scheduled Carrier Delivery and Parcel Delivery orders:

If you find that any product, or a component of the product, is missing, or is incorrect (i.e., you have received the incorrect model, colour or product), or there has been a short-shipment or over-shipment (i.e., incorrect quantity) of your order, you must contact and inform Samsung within forty-eight (48) hours of acceptance of delivery through our Online Shopping team chat at Samsung Canada Online Shoppin (select Online Shopping).


If the issue is reported within forty-eight (48) hours of acceptance of delivery, and if the carton is not damaged and has not been moved from its original “ship to” location, Samsung, or a third party service provider, will commence an investigation. In the event that Samsung or its agent must investigate your delivery or product, you must keep the original shipping carton, all parts, packing material, and the product. If the investigation finds that no fault has been found with the packing, shipping and/or delivery, the investigation will be closed, with no compensation or product replacement.

f. Missing Products or Components for BOPIS orders:
 

If you find that any product, or a component of the product, is missing, or is incorrect (i.e., you have received the incorrect model, colour or product), or that you have been provided the incorrect quantity of product(s):

You must inform a store associate at the SES or BOPIS Partner location where you picked up the order to report the missing/incorrect items within forty-eight (48) hours after pickup. You may find the contact information of SES locations here: https://117.p.syniva.es/ca/ses/

If the issue has been confirmed and accepted by the SES or a BOPIS Partner location, the store may, in its sole discretion: (i) replace the missing/incorrect component or product, or (ii) request a return of the product(s) and issue a refund.

Promotional Products: If a purchased product that is eligible for a return in accordance with these Terms of Use was accompanied by a Promotional Product and the original purchased product was returned due to missing products or components, the customer must also return the Promotional Product(s).

SAMSUNG, SES AND BOPIS PARTNERS SHALL NOT IN ANY WAY BE RESPONSIBLE IF A PRODUCT OR COMPONENT(S) ARE MISSING/INCORRECT AND ARE NOT REPORTED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF DELIVERY OR PICKUP, AND/OR IF THE EXTERNAL CARTON HAS NOT BEEN RETAINED.
