You consent to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of courts located in the State of Michigan as the most convenient and appropriate for the resolution of claims relating to or in connection with the interpretation, validity, construction, performance, breach or termination of these Terms of Use that cannot be resolved between you and us. To the maximum extent afforded under applicable law, you hereby agree that any and all Claims not properly filed in a court of competent jurisdiction or in a proper arbitration tribunal within one (1) year from the earlier of the date that the Claim accrued, the date upon which you purchased the subject product(s), or the date upon which you received title to the subject products, are voluntarily, knowingly, expressly and forever waived by you, and thus you shall not file or prosecute any such expired Claims against us or our affiliates after this one-year period.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT, YOUR RIGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE WITH US THROUGH A CLASS ACTION OF ANY KIND, AND YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

Informal Negotiations.
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or Claim related to the Purchased Products or these Terms of Use, including any Supplemental Terms (each a “Dispute” and collectively, the “Disputes”), brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.

Binding Arbitration.
If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The mandatory and binding arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, video conference, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Oakland County, Michigan. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state courts located in Oakland County, Michigan, or the federal courts located in Wayne County, Michigan, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Use.

In no event shall any Dispute (including, without limitation, any Claim) brought by either Party related in any way to the Site, these Terms of Use, or the Purchased Products be commenced more than one (1) year after the date that the cause of action (i.e., Dispute or Claim) arose. The Parties agree that all Claims and Disputes must be filed and commenced within one (1) year after the date that the cause of action (i.e., Claim or Dispute) arose, or else it shall be deemed automatically and forever waived and released.

Restrictions.
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute and Claims between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute or Claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute or Claims to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. Unless required by law, no Party or arbitrator shall disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties, unless it is necessary to protect or pursue a legal right.

Class Action Waiver.

YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM THAT YOU OR WE ASSERT SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, AND THAT YOU AND WE EXPRESSLY WAIVE OUR RIGHT TO FILE A CLASS ACTION OR SEEK RELIEF ON BEHALF OF A CLASS. Additionally, the arbitrator may not consolidate claims from multiple persons, unless both parties agree otherwise in a signed writing. Furthermore, the arbitrator may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding, unless both parties agree in writing. You or we may, however, bring an individual Claim in small claims court consistent with any applicable jurisdictional and monetary limits that may apply, provided that any such Claim is maintained as an individual claim rather than a claim on behalf of an actual or potential class of claimants.

Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration.
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court. IF A DISPUTE PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN ARBITRATION FOR ANY REASON, THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

CORRECTIONS.

SHIPPING POLICY.

This Shipping Policy constitutes Supplemental Terms and is incorporated in its entirety into the Terms of Use.

SHIPPING INFORMATION AND SHIPMENT TERMS.
If you try to place an order on our Site for the purchase of products from us and the shipment of such products to you, your order shall constitute an offer to purchase the products. If we accept your offer/order, we will ship your ordered products to you via third party carrier selected by us (which may include, the USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc.).  All purchased products are delivered F.O.B., our warehouse or fulfillment center. Where possible, we recommend providing a business or commercial address for the shipping address. In some locations, an adult at least twenty-one (21) years old must be present to receive and sign for packages containing cigars or other regulated products.

It is your responsibility to ensure all shipping information is correct. Once we have accepted your order, changes to the shipping information may not be possible, and, if possible, additional fees or penalties may apply. Additionally, if the package cannot be delivered to the shipping address provided, additional fees or penalties may apply.

Certain jurisdictions may require you, as the purchaser, to be physically present in order to take delivery of the purchased products from our Site. In the event a carrier attempts to, and fails to, deliver purchased products to you on one or more separate occasions, the products may be returned to us by the carrier or temporarily held at a pickup location before being returned to to us by the carrier.

Robusto’s does not sell cigar or tobacco products to anyone under the age of 21.

Robusto’s does not ship cigar or tobacco products to Utah or Hawaii.

Due to Maryland state regulations, we cannot ship little cigars to Maryland residents.

Due to Washington state regulations, we cannot ship little cigars or loose tobacco to Washington residents.

Shipments to Colorado residents are subject to Total Retail Delivery Fees of $0.27 per sale. For additional details, go to: Retail Delivery Fee | Department of Revenue - Taxation

Shipping delivery times are estimates and are not guaranteed.

BY AGREEING TO HAVE PURCHASED PRODUCTS SHIPPED TO YOUR LOCATION, YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT TO US THAT YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO PURCHASE THE PRODUCTS UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS.

During the checkout process on the Site, you may be presented with a number of options regarding methods of shipment and/or delivery for your order. We will identify at the time of checkout the applicable charge for the delivery method that you select. You are responsible for all shipping fees for the delivery of your ordered products. Please be aware that selecting expedited shipping methods will incur greater shipping costs for you.

Any and all costs of shipping, storage and/or additional transportation of any kind for your ordered products shall be borne exclusively and solely by you. However, from time-to-time we may offer on the Site shipping specials or promotional sales where we absorb some of those costs on your behalf. All such shipping specials and promotions are made at our sole discretion and may be revoked or modified at any time by us.

In the United States, shipment of cigars and other regulated products is not permitted to APO/FPO or P.O. Boxes. Further, you may not ship any of our products to destinations outside the United States.

In the event that applicable state law(s) or local municipal ordinance(s) prohibit your shipment of purchased products into your designated state or local delivery destination, or in the event that any such state or municipality requires a permit or license for such a shipment to you or for your purchase of the our products, all such shipments (“Prohibited Shipments”) shall be prohibited and, therefore, orders for Prohibited Shipments are subject to cancellation.

You shall not undertake any Prohibited Shipments or otherwise use our Site or order any products for the purpose of acquiring or procuring Prohibited Shipments. By utilizing this Site, you are representing that you are acting in a fashion compliant with your local and state laws regarding the purchase, transportation and delivery of the purchased products.

If during the checkout process on the Site you designate that you desire to pick up your order at one of our retail brick and mortar stores or fulfillment centers rather than having products shipped directly to you, at the time of pickup you must present valid identification matching your order particulars along with the credit card you used to complete the transaction on the Site. Your age will also be verified with your identification for all age-restricted products. Your name on your identification must match your name on your credit card. You are the sole individual who may pick up your order and only after successful verification of your identification by us in our sole and absolute discretion. By leaving the retail store or our fulfillment center with your order, you agree that you received all purchased products due to you in excellent condition, and that you thereby waive any claim of less than perfect tender of your order to you by us.

The risk of loss for and title to purchased products immediately passes to you at the moment of our delivery to a shipping carrier. We are not liable for damaged or lost goods from that moment onward.

In the case of shipment, if purchased products are damaged or lost in transit, you may make a claim with the shipping carrier. Please refer to our Return and Refund Policy if you believe that you are entitled to a return or refund for purchased products.

If you fail to take delivery and such failure results in return of the shipment to us, you are responsible for any and all charges incurred as a result of your failure to take delivery as well as a restocking fee which shall be equal to 25% of the gross value of your shipment.

DELIVERY DATES/FORCE MAJEURE.
We will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that purchased products are delivered to you by your desired date and time, but we do not guarantee any delivery dates or times. We are not liable for delivery delays or failed delivery based on circumstances that are beyond our reasonable control. Any shipment delays, delivery delays, or delivery failures of any kind are not a breach of any agreement between us and you.

RETURN AND REFUND POLICY.

This Return/Refund Policy constitutes Supplemental Terms and is incorporated in its entirety into the Terms of Use.

Generally.

Refund or replacement, as determined by us in our sole discretion, is your sole remedy for any incorrectly fulfilled product order.
