asiofficialstore.com, on this site, offers its customers the opportunity to purchase only items already in stock. There is no provision for the customer to order items that are not already in stock. Therefore, an order that contains an item that has since become unavailable, even by mere error, shall be considered void. The receipt by asiofficialstore.com of the order, transmitted by the Customer by telematic transmission, determines the conclusion of the contract. With the conclusion of the contract, asiofficialstore.com agrees to provide the customer with the products ordered, under the terms and limitations provided in these conditions, without prejudice to the right not to process orders against persons who do not give sufficient guarantees of solvency or who do not fall into the category of “final consumer” or that, for whatever reason, the product ordered is not available for sale.
By submitting the Order, all the provisions contained in these Conditions are accepted unconditionally and the Customer undertakes to comply with them in dealings with asiofficialstore.com.

1.1 Forms of Payment.
The purchased item must be paid for at the same time as the purchase transaction closes, by credit card, by bank transfer or by PayPal account.
Credit Card: There are no fees and no risk. Credit card information is encrypted during transmission and is handled directly by the Pay Pal payment platform we rely on: asiofficialstore.com will never have access to it in any way.

We remind our customers who use this payment method that after 15 (fifteen) working days from the date of placing the order, if the Transfer has not yet been credited to our bank account, asiofficialstore.com reserves the right to cancel the order.
