Terms and Conditions
Last updated:
Welcome to Rare Istanbul. By accessing or purchasing from rareistanbul.com, you agree to be bound by the following Terms & Conditions. Please read them carefully before placing an order.
1. Product Authenticity
Every pair sold by Rare Istanbul is 100% authentic. Our products are sourced from trusted suppliers, verified resellers, and authorized channels. Each item is inspected by our team prior to dispatch. If you ever doubt the authenticity of an item received, contact us within 48 hours of delivery and we will work with you to resolve the matter.
Rare Istanbul is an independent retailer and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by adidas, Nike, Jordan Brand, Yeezy, or any other trademark holder. All brand names and logos are the property of their respective owners.
2. Limited Stock & Product Availability
Due to the nature of limited and rare products, stock is extremely restricted. We list only what we physically have or can confirm with our suppliers. However:
- Listings are not guaranteed until payment is confirmed and the order is accepted.
- In rare cases of pricing errors, stock miscounts, or supplier issues, we reserve the right to cancel an order and issue a full refund.
- Sizes and colorways are sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
3. Pricing & Payment
All prices are displayed in the currency shown at checkout and include applicable taxes unless stated otherwise. Prices for limited sneakers reflect current market value and may change without notice based on demand and rarity.
We accept major credit and debit cards, Shopify Payments, and other methods shown at checkout. Payment must be completed in full before any order is processed or shipped.
4. Shipping & Delivery
We ship domestically within Turkey and internationally. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout. International buyers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, or import fees imposed by the destination country. Rare Istanbul is not liable for delays caused by customs or courier services.
5. Order Cancellation
Orders may be cancelled by the customer shortly after purchase, provided the item has not yet been shipped. Once shipped, cancellation is no longer possible and our return policy applies. Rare Istanbul reserves the right to cancel any order at its discretion, including in cases of suspected fraud, payment issues, or stock unavailability, with a full refund issued.
6. Sizing
All sizes shown are as marked by the manufacturer in US, UK, or EU. It is the buyer's responsibility to choose the correct size. We recommend reviewing our size guide before purchase. Sizing mistakes are not grounds for a refund unless covered under our return policy.
