Terms and Conditions

Puffball Comics · Effective 1 October 2026

1. Introduction

These Terms and Conditions govern access to and use of the Puffball Comics website and the purchase of physical comic books through our online store. By accessing the website or placing an order, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website to place an order.

These terms are subject to applicable laws in Pakistan and do not override consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted.

2. Business and Customer Information

Puffball Comics operates an online store offering physical comic books for sale to customers in Pakistan. For order-related questions, complaints, and other enquiries, contact contact@puffball.pk.

The legal name of the business, registered or principal business address, and telephone contact details should be displayed on the website where required by applicable law.

3. Products and Descriptions

We aim to keep product titles, descriptions, photographs, editions, prices, and other information accurate and up to date. Comic books may differ in cover artwork, printing edition, publication details, or physical condition. Review the product description and any condition information before ordering.

Images are intended to represent listed items; minor differences in image display may occur because of screen settings or technical factors. This does not remove customer rights where a product is materially different from its description.

4. Prices and Availability

Product prices and applicable charges will be displayed before an order is submitted. Prices and availability may change, but a change will not by itself alter the agreed price of an order already accepted, except where correction or cancellation is permitted by law or agreed with the customer.

If a product becomes unavailable after an order is placed, we may contact the customer to explain the situation and arrange an appropriate resolution, including a refund of payment received for an unfulfilled order where applicable.

5. Placing and Confirming Orders

Customers place orders through the checkout process. Customers are responsible for providing complete and accurate contact, billing, and delivery information.

Submitting an order constitutes a purchase request. An automated acknowledgement confirms receipt only and does not necessarily mean that the order has been finally accepted. Acceptance may be confirmed by an order confirmation or other communication from Puffball Comics.

We may contact customers to clarify information, verify payment, or address stock or fulfilment issues before dispatch. We may decline or cancel an order where reasonably necessary, including suspected fraud, payment failure, evident pricing error, or product unavailability. If payment has been received for an order we cannot fulfil, an appropriate refund will be arranged in accordance with applicable law.

6. Online Payments

Puffball Comics accepts online payments through the options displayed at checkout. Customers must provide accurate payment information and be authorized to use the selected payment method.

An order may not be dispatched until payment has been successfully verified. If payment is deducted but the order is not confirmed, contact contact@puffball.pk with the transaction reference and relevant details.

Do not submit passwords, PINs, one-time passwords, or other banking authentication codes through email or customer support channels.

7. Shipping and Delivery

Puffball Comics currently offers delivery within Pakistan. The estimated delivery period is 3--5 working days, subject to processing, location, shipping arrangements, and circumstances beyond our reasonable control. This is an estimate rather than a guarantee. Further information appears in our Shipping and Delivery Policy.

Customers must ensure that delivery details are correct and that the parcel can be received at the stated address.

8. Cancellation, Refunds, and Damaged Products

Cancellations, refunds, returns, and replacements are governed by our Refund and Cancellation Policy, which should be read with these terms. Contact contact@puffball.pk promptly if an order arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect. Nothing in these terms removes any statutory right or remedy available under applicable law.

9. Customer Responsibilities

Customers agree to provide accurate information; use the website lawfully; avoid fraudulent orders, payment abuse, or unauthorized access attempts; avoid interfering with website security or functionality; and respect the intellectual property rights of Puffball Comics and other rights holders.

We may investigate suspected misuse and take proportionate action where justified and lawful.

10. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, original website text, branding, layout, graphics, and other original content are owned by Puffball Comics or used with permission. Comic book titles, characters, artwork, logos, and related materials may belong to their respective publishers, creators, or other rights holders. Their appearance on our website does not mean Puffball Comics owns those rights.

Customers may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or commercially exploit website content without required permission, except where permitted by applicable law.

11. Website Availability and External Services

We aim to keep the website accessible but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability. The website may be unavailable for maintenance, technical issues, security measures, or reasons outside our control. Payment providers, couriers, and other third parties may operate under their own terms.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Puffball Comics is not responsible for losses arising solely from circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including certain third-party service interruptions or delivery disruptions. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where prohibited by law or excuses Puffball Comics from obligations concerning goods supplied to customers.

13. Privacy

The collection and use of customer information are explained in our Privacy Policy. Customer information will be handled as described in that policy, subject to applicable consent requirements and law.

14. Complaints and Dispute Resolution

Customers are encouraged to contact contact@puffball.pk first so that we can review and attempt to resolve concerns. Nothing in this section prevents a customer from pursuing a remedy or complaint before a competent authority or forum where permitted by applicable law.

15. Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of Pakistan, subject to mandatory consumer-protection rules and jurisdictional requirements that apply to the transaction.

16. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms when necessary. Updated terms will be published with a revised effective date and apply prospectively, subject to applicable law and rights arising from orders already placed.

17. Contact Information

For questions about these terms, orders, or complaints, contact Puffball Comics at contact@puffball.pk.

2. Order Cancellation

Customers wishing to cancel an order should email contact@puffball.pk as soon as possible and include their order number.

  • Cancellation requests will be considered if the order has not yet been dispatched.
  • Once an order has been dispatched, cancellation may no longer be possible. Contact us for assistance.
  • If Puffball Comics cancels an order because a product is unavailable or the order cannot be fulfilled, any payment already received for that unfulfilled order will be refunded, subject to applicable law.

Cancellation requests remain subject to any mandatory rights available under applicable law.

3. Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Products

If a comic book arrives damaged, defective, or different from the item ordered, contact contact@puffball.pk. Please provide your order number, a description of the issue, and clear photographs of the comic book and packaging where relevant.

Please report the issue as soon as reasonably possible after delivery. We may request additional information to assess the claim. Where a claim is accepted, the appropriate remedy will be determined in accordance with applicable law and may include a replacement, exchange, or refund, depending on the circumstances and product availability.

4. Eligibility and Exclusions

Refund or replacement requests will generally be considered where an item is received damaged or defective, the wrong item is delivered, Puffball Comics cannot fulfil an order for which payment has been received, or a remedy is otherwise required by applicable law.

A change of mind, an unwanted purchase, or a preference for a different title or edition does not automatically qualify for a refund under this policy. Nothing in this policy excludes or limits any consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

5. Refund Method and Processing

Approved refunds will generally be returned through the original payment method where practicable. If that method is unavailable or another method is required, we may contact the customer to arrange an appropriate alternative.

The time required for a refund to appear in the customer's account may depend on the payment provider or financial institution. Applicable processing arrangements will be communicated when the refund is approved.

6. Return Instructions

Contact us before returning a product. We will provide return instructions after reviewing the complaint. Please do not send a product to an address without receiving confirmation from Puffball Comics.

Where a return is required, we will communicate the applicable arrangements, including responsibility for return delivery costs, in accordance with the circumstances and applicable law.

7. Contact Us

For cancellation, refund, replacement, or return requests, email contact@puffball.pk and include your order number.
