The legal bits…  

We’re Cloudcast Creative Limited (company number 7863988), trading as Vape Vault. We’re a  company registered in New Zealand. Our store and office is located at:

45 Cook Street
Tolaga Bay, 4077
New Zealand 

When you shop with us or access our services and website, these terms apply. They’re important for both of us as they set out what we expect from each other, and they also give you helpful info. Of course, if you need anything else, get in touch with us – we always love to hear from you! 

We keep these terms updated and amend them every so often, so remember to check back in before you shop, as the latest set will apply. 

About you

To shop with us, you need to: 

• be at least 18 years old;
• have access to your phone banking or internet banking (preferred) OR
• have access to your Laybuy account with www.laybuy.com 

Placing an order  

When you place an order, you should receive an acknowledgement e-mail confirming receipt of your  order. If you pay using POLi, funds will transfer within a few hours. If you pay using bank deposit, your order will be delayed as we must carry out a standard pre-authorisation check to make sure your payment is received. 

We only accept your order once payment has been approved. We recommend sending proof of  payment if you wish to fast track your order into the next available delivery schedule.  

You may be able to cancel or change your order within a short period of ordering – timings depend on your chosen delivery method. 

All orders are subject to availability and confirmation of the order price. Don’t worry, if there’s an issue with an order, we’ll get in touch with you as soon as we can.

Very occasionally, we may need to refuse or cancel an order or close or freeze an account (even if we have previously confirmed your order) – e.g. if we notice something unusual on an order or an account or if your order goes against unit limits as detailed on the product display pages of specific products. If this happens to you and you think we’ve made a mistake, please don’t take offence – get in touch with our team and they’ll be happy to speak to you about it.

Prices and product descriptions

There’s a lot going on here at Vape Vault, and from time to time our busy team members may price up or describe a product or promo incorrectly. If we discover an error for any goods you’ve ordered, we will tell you ASAP and give you the option of reconfirming your order (at the correct price) or cancelling it. 

If we can’t get in touch with you, we will treat the order as cancelled. If you cancel and you’ve already paid, we will refund you in full. 

Prices include GST (where applicable). 

Depending on the value of your order or the delivery option or address you choose, delivery costs may also be charged (see below). Such additional charges will be clearly shown during the checkout process and included in the ‘Total Cost’. 

Delivery

Before you finalise your order, you’ll be given delivery options to choose from with estimated delivery time depending on the delivery address. 

We work our socks off to try to meet all delivery times but sometimes there may be delays – e.g.  because of postal/carrier delays, logistics or bad weather. We will keep you updated as much as we  can and you should be able to track your parcel’s progress. 

If you have chosen same day delivery (East Coast & Gisborne residents only) your order will be delivered to the drop off point unless we advise otherwise. Nationwide deliveries are carried via NZ Post and are usually delivered within 1-3 business days.

Problems with your delivery? Please let us know within 30 days and we’ll do our best to help you. 

Warranty & Returns

Please be advised all disposable vapes vary in capacity (puffs). This is conditional to the size and frequency of the puffs.

If you have received a faulty vape:

✅Send images or video of the fault or faulty device to [email protected]
✅The item must be sent back to us in order to received a refund
✅All shipping expenses are at your own cost
✅We can give a refund OR replacement for in-store returns
✅All returns for online orders are refund only

❌We do not accept returns, exchange or refund for change of mind

Original condition

If an item is returned to us damaged or in an unsuitable condition, we won’t be able to give you a  refund and we may have to send it back to you (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). Alternatively,  we (at our sole discretion) may choose to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of  an item. 

All returned items should be sent in their original condition and packaging where possible, including tags.

Fair use

If we notice an unusual pattern of returns activity that doesn’t sit right: e.g. we suspect someone is  actually using the products, then returning them or ordering and returning loads – way, waaay more than even the most loyal customer would order – then we might have to deactivate the account and  any associated accounts. If this happens to you and you think we’ve made a mistake, please get in  touch with Customer Care and we’ll be happy to discuss it with you. 

This doesn’t affect your statutory rights. 

Shipping
Each customer has the option of having their order sent nationwide via NZ Post (recommended), or choosing same day delivery (Gisborne/East Coast residents only). By choosing same day delivery as your shipping option, you agree, acknowledge and accept the following risks:

🥴Those in charge of sorting your packages at the drop off point may not sort it in a timely manner
🥴Those in charge of sorting your packages may lose your package or put it in the wrong post box
🥴Those in charge of sorting your packages may decide to mail your order to you instead of leaving it at the drop off point for you to collect. This results in a 3-5 delivery delay in some cases.

Disclaimer
We do not offer refund or replacement products for orders that are lost by the same day delivery drop off point/mail centre. When our courier delivers your order to the drop off point/mail centre, we will not be held liable for another establishment’s actions.

For all returns, we aim to refund you within 14 days of having received the returned. 

If you request a refund for an item but you can’t return it to us for some reason, please get in touch – but any refund will be at our discretion.

Promo Codes

From time to time, we may give you Promo Codes that you can use to reduce the price of specified  products or shipping. Remember, it’s up to you to enter the code at checkout! 

Here are some key things to remember: 

Each Promo Code has its own terms, which will be made clear at the time it’s issued to you (e.g. what  products, single/multiple use, when it can be used etc.) 

If you’re given a unique Promo Code that is meant just for you (e.g. a student Promo Code) please  keep it secret and don’t let anyone else use it or abuse it (e.g. don’t post it on social media). If we think there is or has been misuse of a Promo Code in any way (e.g. selling it or sharing it with others),  we can cancel your Promo Code and/or suspend or even close your account without telling you. 

We don’t like to do this, but if a Promo Code can’t run properly because someone or something is  spoiling the fun for everyone – e.g. fraud, tampering, technical errors or anything else that is beyond our control that affects the running or fairness of the Promo Code – we can cancel, modify or suspend  the Promo Code.

Gift Vouchers  

If you’re the lucky recipient of a Vape Vault Gift Voucher (high five!) there are a few points to bear in  mind: 

If you’re being super generous and buying someone else a Gift Voucher, please make sure you get  their email address correct! If you get it wrong and the Gift Voucher is emailed to someone else who uses it, there’s not much we can do. Check, double check and even triple check before you buy it. 

Speaking of emails, sometimes pesky (but useful) spam filters send our emails into junk or spam  folders. So, if you’ve not been thanked for your generous gift, it’s worth giving them a nudge because  there might be something wonderful waiting for them in their junk or spam folder! 

Gift vouchers will expire 12 months from the date of receipt. 

Vape Vault reserves the right to cancel any Gift Vouchers in its sole discretion where fraud or misuse  is suspected.
