Discount Watch Store values providing the highest quality service and aims to offer a completely error-free site. Unfortunately, errors or inaccuracies (whether technical or human) do sometimes occur. Thus, Discount Watch Store does not warrant that the product descriptions are accurate as to any specifications, features, contents, colors, prices, weights and/or measures. Specifications listed (other than price) are generally those provided by the manufacturer or distributor. Except where noted otherwise, the retail price displayed for products represents the full retail list price of the product itself as suggested by the manufacturer or supplier, the retail value estimated in accordance with industry custom and practice, or the estimated retail value for a comparably featured product offered elsewhere and may not reflect the actual retail selling price. The retail price is a comparative price estimate and may or may not represent the prevailing price in every area at a particular time. Moreover, products displayed on the Site may be limited as to quantity, price, availability and/or lead time. Thus, Ashford does not warrant the availability, availability at a certain price, quantities available or available at a quoted price, and/or lead time of any product.

Legal Disputes:

YOU AND ASHFORD AGREE TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT, SUCH AS ACCESS TO DISCOVERY, ALSO MAY BE UNAVAILABLE OR LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.

Any dispute between you and Ashford, its agents, employees, officers, directors, principals, successors, assigns, subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively for purposes of this section, ‘Ashford’) arising from or relating to these Terms of Use and their interpretation or the breach, termination or validity thereof, the relationships which result from these Terms of Use, including disputes about the validity, scope or enforceability of this arbitration provision (collectively, “Covered Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration. Prior to initiating any arbitration, the initiating party will give the other party at least 60-days’ advanced written notice of its intent to file for arbitration. Ashford will provide such notice by email to your e-mail address on file with Ashford and you must provide such notice by email to info@ashford.com

During the 60-day notice period, the parties will endeavor to settle amicably by mutual discussions any Covered Disputes.

If the parties do not settle within the 60-day notice period, upon expiration of that period, either party may initiate arbitration.

The arbitrator will conduct any arbitration proceedings by telephone or videoconference unless in-person appearances are requested by you or Ashford and approved by the arbitrator.

Any in-person appearances will be held at a location mutually agreed upon by you and Ashford, or, in the absence of such agreement, at a location determined by the arbitrator.

If any provision of the agreement to arbitrate in this section is found illegal or unenforceable, the remaining arbitration terms shall continue to be fully valid, binding, and enforceable (but in no case will there be a class, representative or private attorney general arbitration).
