The Customer's shopping cart and the order summary sent to the Customer following completion of the purchase will include a description of the product(s) ordered, including measurements and/or sizes (where applicable) and the pricing information and associated costs (e.g. shipping costs).

Although Precious Threads by Abiola takes all reasonable measures to ensure the photographs on the website are a true reflection of the original product(s) in order to reduce inaccuracies as much as possible, certain variations are possible due to the Customer's computer's technical characteristics and colour resolution.  In addition and in the case of products made from print fabric, variations will exist based on the pattern placement of each piece.  As a result, each piece though made of the fabric shown on the website, will be unique in where the pattern/fabric is cut.  Consequently, Precious Threads by Abiola will not be held responsible for any inaccuracies in the graphic representation displayed on the website or final print placement of the constructed Precious Threads by Abiola product(s).  In addition, Precious Threads by Abiola reserves the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies and/or omissions and to change/update information including the cancellation of orders if the information on the site is inaccurate at any time and without prior notice (including after the submission of the order).
