We are entitled to terminate the contract between us for any reason and at any time up until the commencement of shipping of the products you have ordered. All contracts entered into through the website are made directly between the member and Quota.
Order acceptance and the completion of the contract between you and Quota will take place on the dispatch of the products ordered by you, unless we have notified you that we do not accept your order or you have cancelled it in accordance with the instructions in Ordering Information.
Non-acceptance of an order may be a result of one of the following:
- The product you ordered being unavailable due to raw materials not on stock
- Our inability to obtain authorization for your payment
- The identification of a pricing or product description error
- Not meeting the eligibility to order criteria set out in the Terms & Conditions

On demand we may care for transport to any destination by debiting you the cost. To receive a quote for transport, please contact concierge@quotacollection.it In any case we will only deliver to your front street door. Generally we do not deliver to floors level. If you require a special delivery, extra charges might have to be paid by you, to delivery agent. We sell some large and heavy products that may require more than two men. In any case we will call you prior delivery in order to advise you about date and approximate timing. Quota normally ships goods five/six weeks starting from date of reception of deposit and once that balance amount has been credited. Earlier shipping is not usually possible since the shipping date depends on manufacturimg time needed. Quota has no liability to you in the event that its obligations to ship products to you ceases to exist when Quota, through no fault of its own, does not receive raw materials in full or on time from suppliers, (provided always that Quota has informed customers as soon as reasonably practicable of the failure of its supplier). In such circumstances any payments (deposit) made by you will be refunded. In cases of force majeure (as subsequently described), shipping duration may increase within reason. Force majeure shall include strike, exclusion, official intervention, energy (or resource) scarcity, shipping difficulties, business complications such as fire or water damage to machinery, lightning or any other unforeseeable business complications for which Quota cannot be held responsible. Quota will inform you of the starting (and ending) point of such shipping impediments as soon as reasonably practicable. Quota reserves the right to cancel any contract with you if delivery fails three times through your fault. In this case payments already made will not be refunded. Quota reserves the right to charge you for additional costs that it may incur due to failed deliveries. If your goods remain at our warehouse for more than four weeks, during which time you fail to accept delivery/redelivery (despite Quota having contacted you to do so), you may incur a storage charge. We also reserve the right to cancel your order with no refund. QUOTA asks you to immediately inform on delivery the deliverer/carrier about obvious damage to your order during transit. We also ask you to write down a reserve next to your signature of receipt of the goods. Doing so, it has no influence on your rights but will help us to make our own claims against delivery agent.
Defective Goods or Damaged Goods
We strongly advise you to throughly check your goods upon receipt. To protect your interests, any claim concerning damaged and/or defective goods found on delivery, or concerning damaged or defective goods found at a later date, must be notified as soon as possible to our Concierge Service department ( concierge@quotacollection.it ). We do not accept any claims for damage caused by you the customer.
Returns Procedure for Damaged Furniture Deliveries In the unlikely event that your furniture arrives damaged or faulty please email concierge@quotacollection.it immediately and we will drive you through.
Data Protection
We reserve the right to keep all customer details on Quota's ordering system and a paper copy of your details at our Head Office until such a time we deem it suitable to destroy them. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure all information remains confidential.
Furniture measurements
The dimensions given are written for your guidance. Before ordering, please ensure that there is adequate room to take the furniture through any doorways and windows, taking note of any restricted passageways, stairs and awkward turns.
Wood
With exposure to light and air, cherrywood, walnut, maple and oak will mature to a deeper colour. This will be most pronounced in cherrywood, which mellows to a deep copper colour. For this reason objects placed on surfaces could leave 'shadows' when removed. Should this happen, exposure to daylight will eventually darken these paler areas.
Leather
Leather is a natural product and each hide will have its own individual characteristics and natural marks. Differences in the grain, texture and colour may be apparent from one hide to another and even within the same hide. Quota selects only hides of the highest quality but some marking is inevitable and should be accepted as part of the individual appearance of leather furniture. Concerning our leathers we suggest you to read carefully technical sheet of all different qualities also in order for maintenance.
