5) If your personal information such as: billing address, shipping address, phone, email, credit card changes while registered with ENCORE BALLROOM COUTURE LLC, it is your responsibility to update it. If there is a change you must notify immediately by email. Also you will need to complete the Change In Registration Information Contract and submit as soon as possible. If this information is not current, it could delay your payments from reaching you. If checks are not processed within 6 months of being written, they automatically void. If we have to stop payment on a check there will be a $60 fee. If we have a returned payment there will be a $50 fee.
For International Residents we need to have your correct bank name, bank address, account number (IBAN) and BIC/SWIFT code. If we do not, your payment may be sent to the wrong person. We will not be held liable for payments that are sent incorrectly due to outdated information. To avoid this, you will need to complete the Change In Registration Information Contract and submit as soon as possible.
6) If someone wants to purchase your dress but there is an existing Try-On Contract on it, the purchase will take priority. The other client will be notified immediately and will have the option to choose a different dress, or receive a full refund of their try-on fee if already processed.
7) If someone wants to purchase your dress but there is an existing Rental Contract on it, if the purchase date is within one month of the rental date, the Rental Contract will be honored. The client purchasing the dress will be notified and will receive the dress after the other client’s rental date. In this case, ENCORE BALLROOM COUTURE LLC will clean and ship the dress to the new owner, at our expense.
If the rental date is over one month away, the purchase will take priority. The other client will be notified immediately and have the option to choose a different dress, or receive a full refund of their rental fee.
