The shipping method used will be at the discretion of La Reina. The products can be delivered to you until 9:00 p.m. on your rental start date.

4. Your Commitments to Us; Payment of Rental Fee; Fees for Late Returns
a. Receipt of the Products. Upon delivery, you bear responsibility for the product(s). You acknowledge that a secure shipping address (defined herein) is highly recommended. A secure shipping address is defined as a location where an individual can physically receive product(s). In the event that an unsecure shipping address is provided, La Reina does not bear liability for products left unattended. Furthermore, you acknowledge that providing anything other than a secure shipping address may result in delivery delays and additional delivery fees for which La Reina is not to be held liable, but you will be held liable.
b. Use of the Product. You agree to treat the product with great care. You are responsible for loss, destruction or damage to the products due to theft, mysterious disappearance, fire, major stains or any other cause, other than normal wear and tear. Normal wear and tear encompasses minor stains, stuck zippers or other very minor damage. If you return a product that is damaged beyond normal wear and tear, then you agree that we shall charge you, and you shall pay, for the price for repairing or replacing the product, as determined in our discretion, up to the retail value for the product.
c. Return of the Product; Extensions. You agree to return the product to La Reina in the same box shipped on the return date for the product that is identified in the online invoice for your order. You may extend your order for a product on the website or by email with confirmation by us, provided that any extensions are subject to other orders for that product and to pre-payment of the additional rental fee applicable to that product for the period of time of the extension. You must return the product by delivering the product in the return packaging to a La Reina fitting room located all over Cairo by 12 p.m. on or before the date that the product is due.
d. If you return the product late or not at all, a late fee of five hundred Egyptian pound (500.00EGP) per day will be charged to the payment card you used to pay the rental fee or to any other payment card included in your account information that you have provided to La Reina for every day that you are late returning the product, and you agree to pay such late fees, up to an amount not to exceed 100% of the retail value plus applicable sales tax (plus the rental fee). The late fee is payable for each order of product that is not returned when due, not for each product that is the subject of the order that is late. If you have not returned a product within fifteen (15) days after the return date for the product, your late return will be considered a non-return and La Reina will charge your payment card the maximum late fee set forth above, less any late fees that you have already paid, plus applicable sales tax.

If you pay us an amount equal to 100% of the retail value under this section 4 and you still possess the product, the product is yours to keep, though on an “AS IS” basis without warranty of any kind. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations of this clause shall not apply to the rental fee, which is charged separately from, and in addition to, any other charges payable by you pursuant to this section 4.
g. Any breach of this Agreement will automatically terminate the rental agreement and will make you responsible to the fullest extent permitted by law, for the actual and consequential damages to La Reina and others caused by the breach, together with La Reina’s related costs and attorney’s fees.
