General Terms and Conditions
General Terms and Conditions
When you order products from Dear Sam Europe AB (corporate ID no.: 5591058382) (”Dear Sam”), the following terms and conditions apply. This means that, as a consumer, you accept and approve these General Terms and Conditions in all purchases at www.dearsam.com.
Inter alia, Dear Sam comply with current consumer law provisions and the EU law on data protection and privacy, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Delivery
Dear Sam currently delivers all shipments using DHL. We use several different delivery options for the fastest possible delivery to you. Information on estimated delivery time is available on each product page. If you are not sure of the delivery time for your particular product, you are always welcome to contact customer services. In the event of any delay in delivery, you will be informed of the reason for the delay and you will be given a new estimated delivery time. If you do not accept the new delivery time, you are entitled to cancel the purchase.
Delivery to a sub-post office/service point
We have developed and produced a number of sets of special packaging that are uniquely adapted to our products. This is to ensure fast, secure delivery to you. For obvious reasons, most of our products do not fit through a normal letterbox and are therefore sent directly to the closest collection point (often a grocery store or convenience store). Tracking is provided for all our shipments. Tracking can vary in scope from one delivery option to another. When your goods are available for collection, you receive a text message containing the tracking number on the mobile phone number you specified when ordering. A valid ID document must be shown when collecting your goods.
Delivery of posters
When the order consists only of posters (i.e. with no frame added) your poster is sent in a specially-constructed Dear Sam poster tube. All our posters are in stock and our goal is to dispatch all orders the same day. Information on estimated delivery times is available on each product page.
Delivery of posters and frames
When you order a poster and frame or only a frame, your order is sent in Dear Sam's specially-constructed packaging for secure transport of frames. All our packages containing frames are sent with full tracking to your local sub-post office. All our posters and frames are in stock and our goal is to dispatch all orders the same day. Please note that we currently do not offer frames outside the EU.
Information on estimated delivery times is available on each product page.

Dear Sam assumes the risk of the goods being damaged or lost during transportation from our warehouse to you. In the case of any returns, you yourself assume the risk of the goods being damaged or lost.

Returns policy
Dear Sam grants you the right to a 90-day cooling off period from the date on which you received your goods.
In the case of returns, the goods must be returned in the same state as they were in when they were delivered to you. The goods must be returned in Dear Sam's original packaging with any accessories.
In order to check that the goods coincide with your order, you may only handle and inspect the goods in the same way as you normally do if you try on/look at goods in a shop. In the event that you have handled the goods to a greater extent than described above, you may be charged for the reduction in value of the goods. Dear Sam applies a full reduction in value (i.e. the full value of the goods) if returned goods are not in a condition to be resold (as new goods).
In the case of return of goods, Dear Sam pays the return costs provided that you have first contacted our customer services via hello@dearsam.com and follow our instructions regarding returns in Questions & Answers.
You, the customer, assume the transportation risk yourself in the case of a return. Dear Sam assumes no liability for any damage to or loss of returned goods during transportation. We therefore strongly recommend that you comply with our instructions to return the goods in their original packaging. Dear Sam's packaging is designed to minimise the risk of any damage during transportation.
Refund of returns
In the event of an approved, received return, we refund, within 10 days, all payments we received from you including any delivery costs (from us to you). Refunds in the case of invoice payments are made to the specified personal account in the first instance. In the case of a card payment, the money is returned to the card (i.e. the account linked to the card) with which you carried out the purchase.
Right to claim
Dear Sam provides full compensation in the form of a new product when a manufacturing fault has been verified. It is important to inspect the product carefully when it arrives. If a product is damaged or is otherwise faulty when it arrives, a claim should be filed (if possible) within 7 days from receipt. Contact customer services if you wish to file a claim concerning your product.
Law and Jurisdiction
If a dispute arises between you and Dear Sam, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to seek a resolution. We will consider reasonable requests to resolve the dispute through alternative dispute resolution procedures, such as mediation, as alternatives to litigation.
When you order products from Dear Sam, Swedish law will apply. Any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with your order (including non-contractual disputes or claims) must be resolved by a court located in Sweden and will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Sweden.
