Purchaser Terms and Conditions
Purchases of Original Works of Art
As a Member, you may purchase Original Works of Art that are listed by other Members on the Site.

You acknowledge that prices do not include shipping and handling charges or applicable Taxes (defined below), if any, for which you are responsible and which will be separately identified on your receipt.

The Artist identified on the listing of the Original Work of Art or our gallery will ship the purchased work directly to you. The terms and conditions of Kingdom Favor’s then-current Return Policy apply to any Original Works of Art that you purchase through the Site and Services. When you purchase Original Works of Art via Online Sales (other than via the Site and Services) such purchases will be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Online Sales channels which will be presented to you at the time of purchase.
Order Cancellations
Kingdom Favor reserves the right to cancel any order for an Original Work of Art or Printed Work placed via the Site and Services if Kingdom Favor determines, in its sole discretion, that the item is mispriced, out of stock, discontinued, or otherwise unavailable at the price listed via the Site and Services.
