14. MERCHANDISE AVAILABILITY
Merchandise listed on Jeel E-commerce is primarily offered on a preorder basis and is subject to availability from our partner sellers and suppliers, most of whom are located outside the Maldives. Products are not necessarily kept in stock locally unless specifically mentioned. By placing an order, you acknowledge that the item may need to be sourced and imported upon confirmation. While we make every effort to ensure that our product listings reflect current availability, there may be instances where a product becomes unavailable due to supplier stockouts, order limitations, or unforeseen logistical delays. In such cases, Jeel reserves the right to cancel the affected part or the entirety of the order. If this happens, the customer will be notified promptly through the registered email or contact information, and a full refund of any payments made will be issued through the original payment method or other suitable alternatives agreed upon. Jeel also reserves the right to limit the quantity of items purchased per customer, per household, or per order. These restrictions may apply to orders placed using the same customer account, the same payment method, or the same billing or shipping address. If we make changes or cancellations to your order, we will attempt to notify you through the contact details provided at the time of purchase. All orders are subject to acceptance and successful payment processing. Jeel may, at its sole discretion, refuse or cancel any order if we suspect fraudulent activity, violation of our policies, or other reasons that may compromise customer experience or platform integrity.

All products available on Jeel E-commerce are listed based on information provided by the respective sellers or suppliers. Jeel makes reasonable efforts to present accurate and up-to-date product details, including descriptions, specifications, dimensions, usage instructions, pricing, and images. However, we do not guarantee that all information will be entirely error-free or exhaustive. Product colors, textures, and appearances may vary slightly depending on your device’s display settings or lighting conditions. Such variations do not constitute defects and will not be considered grounds for return or refund unless the product significantly differs from the description or is damaged. Prices of products on Jeel E-commerce are listed in either Maldivian Rufiyaa (MVR) or United States Dollars (USD), depending on the listing and payment options. The applicable currency will be clearly displayed on the product page. All prices are inclusive of applicable taxes unless otherwise specified. However, additional charges may apply for delivery, import clearance, or other services, which will be communicated during the checkout process or in the shipping policy. In the case of any pricing or product information error, Jeel reserves the right to correct such errors and revise your order accordingly. If we are unable to reach you for confirmation or if you do not agree with the updated information, the order may be cancelled, and any payments made will be fully refunded.
