In the event that the product you purchased is out of stock, we will either fully refund you or give the alternative options that may suit your needs. While we certainly do our best to ensure the accuracy of product descriptions and prices, we cannot make such guarantees.

If a product’s listed price is lower than its actual price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping the product or cancel the order and notify you of such cancellation. If the order has been shipped before The Jerusalem Gift Shop becomes aware of the error, you agree to either return the product or pay the difference between the actual and charged prices.
