Ordering process
You can order Products via the Website. By clicking ‘Buy Now’ you submit a binding offer to purchase the Products displayed on the checkout page.
We will send you a confirmation email within a few minutes of receiving your order. With the confirmation email we indicate that we have received your order which, however, does not yet constitute our acceptance of your purchase offer. Once we have processed and set up your order for delivery, we will send you an email confirming that we have accepted your order. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you an invoice or with confirmation of our having dispatched your order, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us. In this email you will also find further information about the delivery. Such email will, at the same time, constitute our acceptance on behalf of Sonos, Inc. of your agreement to be bound by the Terms of Use, Licence and Warranty Agreement.
We will be free to accept or decline your order at our sole discretion. We want to ensure that the Products you ordered are available. That is why we only accept the order when the Product is ready for delivery. For Products that are in stock, this usually takes no longer than 24 hours. If a Product is out of stock, you will receive the order acceptance email as soon as the Product is available and ready for delivery. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product(s).
