A purchasing contract (“sale”) between the user and The Frame and Art Factory shall be complete only once a user has placed an order and the payment has been processed fully, meaning The Frame and Art Factory has received and accepted the payment.
Payment
If payment fails due to the account not existing, insufficient funds, the credit card number or other information being incorrect etc. the purchase will not be successful. The above is dependent on the product being available.
For EFT payments kindly note the following detail:
- You have 2 hours to pay and send us proof of payment.

- Orders placed after hours, on weekends or public holidays will be processed the following business day.
If you have any issues with payment, please contact us on 021- 447 1620
Reservation
Products cannot be reserved by a user to be bought at a later time. Placing an item in your cart without processing the payment for the order will not lead to a successful order being placed nor the reservation of (an) item(s).
