Acceptance of Terms

By using instructionalgoods.com, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, as well as our Privacy Policy, Return Policy, and Shipping Policy, which are incorporated herein by reference. You represent that you are at least 18 years of age or are accessing the site under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian. If you are placing an order on behalf of an institution or organization, you warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these terms.

Product Information and Availability

We strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information regarding the products we offer. This includes product descriptions, specifications, pricing, images, and availability. However, we do not warrant that all product information is entirely error-free. Minor variations in color, size, or design may occur due to manufacturing processes or monitor settings. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions and to change or update information at any time without prior notice. Product availability is subject to change, and we do not guarantee that all items listed on our website will remain in stock. In the event that an item becomes unavailable after you have placed an order, we will notify you promptly and offer alternatives or process a refund.

Pricing and Payment

All prices listed on instructionalgoods.com are in U.S. dollars and are subject to change without notice. We make every effort to ensure that our pricing is accurate, but errors may occasionally occur. If we discover a pricing error for an item you have ordered, we will contact you to provide the correct price and give you the option to proceed with the order or cancel it. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed at an incorrect price, regardless of whether the order has been confirmed or charged. Payment must be made in full at the time of checkout. We accept major credit cards, debit cards, and, for approved institutional clients, purchase orders. By providing payment information, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the selected payment method and that the information you provide is accurate and complete.

Order Acceptance and Cancellation

Your submission of an order constitutes an offer to purchase our products. We reserve the right to accept, reject, or cancel any order for any reason at any time. Examples of circumstances that may lead to order cancellation include, but are not limited to, product unavailability, suspected fraud, pricing errors, or failure to pass our internal verification processes. Once you place an order, you will receive an automated confirmation email acknowledging receipt of your order. This does not constitute acceptance of your order. Our acceptance of your order occurs when we ship the products and send a shipping confirmation email. We reserve the right to limit the quantity of items purchased per person, household, or order.

The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that most closely reflects the original intent of the parties.
