A Gift Card is not valid or usable if obtained from unauthorized sellers or resellers and we decline all responsibility in this regard.
It is your responsibility to obtain a receipt for purchases made with the Gift Card and to ensure that the card number on the receipt matches the number on the Gift Card.
Liability limits:
- You cannot use third-party Gift Cards to purchase a Maison Marie Saint Pierre Gift Card.
- You cannot use Maison Marie Saint Pierre Gift Cards, regardless of the balance, to purchase a Maison Marie Saint Pierre Gift Card.
- A Gift Card is not a payment, credit, or debit card. No implied warranties apply to purchased Gift Cards.

Maison Marie Saint Pierre reserves the right to refuse a Gift Card or limit its use if Maison Marie Saint Pierre has reason to believe its use is unauthorized, fraudulent, or illegal.
3. Returns
All returns for purchases made with a Gift Card will result in a credit being posted to the Gift Card or the issuance of a new Gift Card equal to the amount of the returned items. If multiple payment methods were used for the purchase, the amount paid with the Gift Card will be refunded accordingly.
4. Risk of Loss
The risk of loss and title to Gift Cards are transferred to the buyer upon sale, upon Maison Marie Saint Pierre's electronic transmission of the Gift Card to the buyer or designated recipient, whichever is applicable.
