Quay Customer Service will review the request and decide whether this Limited Warranty applies. Quay may ask you to provide further information or photographs to assist us to process your warranty claim or to post the damaged product to Quay. If your product is covered by this Limited Warranty, Quay will provide a replacement product less any applicable costs.  If Quay determines it is not covered, we will notify you by email. You are solely responsible for any expenses of claiming the Limited Warranty (if any), unless agreed in writing by Quay at its sole discretion.   

In some cases, we may determine that your glasses need to be replaced, but no longer carry the original style of glasses in stock.  In these circumstances, we will replace your glasses with a frame of equal or lesser value. 

Australian Customers – What are Your Rights under the Australian Consumer Law? 

  • For Australian consumers, this Limited Warranty is provided in addition to, and should not be read as excluding, restricting, limiting or modifying your rights and remedies under the Australian Consumer Law or any other applicable consumer law in Australia.  
  • Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.  

US Customers - How Will State Law Affect Your Customer’s Rights under this Warranty? 

To the extent permitted by law, this warranty is exclusive and in lieu of any other warranty, written or oral, including but not limited to any express warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. The duration of any implied warranties, including any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, is expressly limited to this warranty period. Your exclusive remedy for breach of this warranty or of any implied warranty or of any other obligation arising by operation of law or otherwise shall be limited as specified herein to repair or replacement, at our sole option. Responsibility for incidental or consequential damages is expressly excluded.  

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other rights that vary from state to state. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
