1. About these terms
These Terms of Service govern your use of the L James Thieman Leathercraft website and your purchase of products through the site. By using the site, creating an account, checking out as a guest, or placing an order, you agree to these terms and to use the site lawfully.
2. Products and orders
Products are handcrafted leather goods. Product descriptions, images, options, prices, and availability are provided as accurately as possible and may change without notice. An order is subject to acceptance and availability. We may contact you if information is incomplete, an item is unavailable, or an order requires clarification.
Customers may create an account or use guest checkout. You are responsible for providing accurate order, shipping, billing, and contact information. Account holders are responsible for keeping their login details secure and for activity under their account.
3. Prices and payment
Prices are shown on the applicable product page. Payments are processed through the website checkout. You authorize the applicable payment provider to process the amount shown at checkout, including any applicable shipping charges and taxes.
4. Made-to-order products and fulfillment
Items are made to order unless stated otherwise. Items generally ship 7–10 days after the order is placed. Shipping is by USPS Priority unless another method is stated at checkout or agreed for the order. Fulfillment estimates are not guarantees of delivery by a particular date.
5. Exchanges
If the wrong item is ordered, such as the wrong hand or wrong tool model, an unused item may be exchanged at no extra cost. Contact us before sending an item back so the exchange can be arranged correctly.
6. Returns
Returns are accepted within 30 days. Because products are made to order, approved returns are subject to a $25 restocking fee. Returned items should be unused and in the condition in which they were received. This section does not limit any rights that cannot legally be excluded.
7. Your responsibilities
You agree not to misuse the site, interfere with its operation, attempt unauthorized access, submit unlawful or misleading information, infringe another person’s rights, or use site content to harm the business or other users.

9. Privacy and cookies
The site may collect information submitted through comments, reviews, accounts, orders, and contact forms. Technical information such as an IP address and browser details may be processed for spam detection and site security.

11. Dispute resolution
If you have a concern about an order or the site, contact us first so we can try to resolve it in good faith. Nothing in these terms prevents you from exercising rights or pursuing remedies available under applicable law.
12. Changes to these terms
These terms may be updated when the site, products, checkout process, or legal requirements change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised update date. Your continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms to the extent permitted by law.
