Returns, Refunds and Title

For more information about our returns and refunds, please see our Returns Policy. 

Shipping Damage or Loss

All purchases of physical items from Talisman are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier.

Pricing and Product Descriptions

We cannot confirm the price of an item until you order. Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items in our catalog may be mispriced. If the correct price of an item sold by Talisman is higher than our stated price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation.   

Talisman strives to be accurate in writing product descriptions. However, Talisman does not warrant that product descriptions or other product specifications are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. If a product offered by Talisman itself is not as described, your sole remedy is follow Talisman’s return policy.

Limitation of Liability

YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT TALISMAN SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THIS SITE, OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CONTENT OR PRODUCTS PROVIDED THROUGH THIS SITE OR OUR ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS. THIS IS A COMPREHENSIVE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY THAT APPLIES TO ALL LOSSES AND DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (WHETHER DIRECT, INDIRECT, GENERAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR OTHER DAMAGES), INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF DATA, GOODWILL, INCOME OR PROFITS, WHETHER THE CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING RECKLESSNESS), STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND EVEN IF AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF TALISMAN HAS BEEN SPECIFICALLY ADVISED OF, OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF, THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND WITHOUT REGARD TO THE EFFECTIVENESS OF OTHER REMEDIES.

Disputes and Claims

Any dispute or claim relating in any way to the Site, or to any products or services displayed, advertised, sold or distributed by Talisman, must be resolved by the procedures outlined in this section, and the remedies in this section must be exhausted prior to submitting your claim(s) to any court: or arbitrating body.

  • You will send us a letter outlining all unresolved claims, postage pre-paid and addressed to our headquarters at the address provided on the Site as our contact address.
  • If your claim(s) remain(s) unresolved 15 days after the postmarked date on your letter (the “Claim Date”), you agree to mediate the dispute using a mediator we select and pay for, or a mediator you select and pay for. If you fail to select a mediator of your choice within 30 days of the Claim Date, we will proceed with our own mediator. We each agree to use best efforts to complete mediation within 60 days of the Claim Date.
  • If mediation fails to resolve the matter, you must wait an additional 15 days (“cooling down period”) before submitting your claim to a court or arbitration center.

If for any reason your claim proceeds to court, we each waive any right to a jury trial. Further, you explicitly agree that all dispute resolution proceedings, including court, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, or consolidated or representative action. 

You further agree that this section of the Terms does not apply if we decide to bring suit against you in court to stop your infringement or other harmful or illegal conduct caused by you or by your consent or caused via resources under your control. 

Jurisdiction

Talisman’s principal office is located in Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA.  All actions or proceedings arising out of or relating to your use of the Site shall be mediated, arbitrated, and/or litigated exclusively in Ramsey Country Minnesota. You hereby irrevocably consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of said courts for all such purposes.  Further, you are forever estopped from asserting a claim against Talisman or seeking to obtain alternate jurisdiction anywhere outside of Ramsey County Minnesota.

Modification, and Severability

We anticipate making changes to these Terms as best practices change, and you agree we can make those modifications at any time without further notice to you. Any such modifications will be effective immediately upon posting of the modified Terms to the Site. Accordingly, you agree to review these Terms periodically, and your continued access or use of this Site will be deemed your acceptance of the modified Terms.

If any provision of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, such provision shall be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent allowed by law and the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.

No Waiver

All waivers must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Talisman. Unless the written waiver contains an express statement to the contrary, no waiver by us of any breach of any provision of these Terms or of any right provided for herein or by law shall be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of such provision, a waiver of the provision itself, or a waiver of any right under these Terms.
