service. Member must provide (1) all equipment necessary for their own
Internet connection, including computer and modem and (2) provide for
Member's access to the Internet, and (3) pay any fees related with
such connection.(b)
GardenGrocer's employees, agents or designees will shop and deliver grocery
orders placed with GardenGrocer.com. Delivery will be made to the address
specified by you, the Member when the order is placed. Shipping or delivery information
incorrectly stated in the order may cause a delay
of up to two days in delivery. The cost of a
second delivery due to incorrect address information is $20 and
it shall be the purchaser's responsibility. Please check all shipping information carefully, especially zip code information.
(c) Full payment for groceries and associated
shopping and delivery fees is due prior to or at the time of delivery
if the C.O.D. (cash on delivery) option is chosen at the time the
order is placed. You, the Member are
responsible for ensuring that someone will be present at the delivery address to receive and,
if the order is to be handled as a C.O.D. (cash on delivery), pay
for the delivery on the scheduled day/time. You must
allow a two (2) hour window of time for these deliveries. If this is
not possible, you must notify us when the order is placed. If no one
is present at the designated delivery date/time and
a second delivery is necessary, you will be charged a $20 fee.
(d) If you wish to have us leave the order
"unattended", you must give us specific delivery directions at the
time the order is placed. If you have chosen to have us leave an order
unattended, and as long as we have followed your written directions,
we are not responsible for damage or theft of these unattended orders.

a delivery day/time (beyond the two hour "window"),
GardenGrocer is responsible
for making the delivery on a date/time that is mutually agreed upon by both
parties.
