Accuracy
Eddie Bauer has attempted to match online prices to those in store; however online prices, products, service selection and availability, and sale effective dates may differ from those in store and may vary by geographic region. Due to differences in sale effective dates across the country, items may be available online at the sale price before they are available in store. Market conditions may cause prices and availability to change without further notice. Due to special promotions and sales, items in your shopping cart may have a different price from the price displayed on the product page when it was first placed in your cart.
We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update information at any time without prior notice (including after you have submitted an order). In the event of a pricing error on an item you have ordered, we will notify you and await your approval of the corrected price before continuing with your order.
Additionally, although great care is taken in the production of the Site, typographical, illustrative or pricing errors may occur. We reserve the right to correct errors at any time.

Dispute Resolution
Our first objective is to satisfy our customers, and so we hope to never have a dispute with you. But if we can't avoid a dispute, you and we agree to try for 60 days to resolve it by agreement. You and we further agree that if we can't resolve our dispute by agreement within 60 days, we will submit adjudication of our dispute to binding individual arbitration, as set out below. If any part of these terms is found to be void or unenforceable under applicable law, all other parts of the terms will still apply.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim (a "Notice of Dispute") to Eddie Bauer, ATTN: General Counsel "INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION", 10401 NE 8th Street, Suite 500, Bellevue, WA 98004. After we receive the Notice of Dispute, you and we will have sixty (60) days to attempt to resolve your concerns. If our efforts are unsuccessful, you will be entitled to deliver a Notice of Arbitration to the same address set out above. If the amount in issue is less than $10,000, the hearing will be conducted by telephone unless the arbitrator decides it should be conducted in person. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the ADR Chambers Arbitration Rules. The law of the arbitration will be Ontario law.
This dispute resolution clause applicable to Canadian residents will be interpreted and construed under the laws of the Province of Ontario, without regard to conflict of laws rules. The Arbitration Act, 1991, S.O. 1991, c. 17, as amended, applies to a dispute related to these Terms of Use.
You also agree to waive-that is, to give up-your right to claim through a class action lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, or any other proceeding where someone acts in a representative capacity or individual claims are combined (the "Class Action Waiver"). However, we agree that if your claim is small enough that the law allows you to file it in a small claims court, you may do so instead of submitting to binding arbitration. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we agree to waive any right to a jury trial, and you and we agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario.
These arbitration and Class Action Waiver terms will survive the termination of these Terms of Use or your relationship with Eddie Bauer. If any or any part of this section is found to be void or unenforceable under applicable law, all other parts of this arbitration provision and of these Terms of Use will still apply, except that if the Class Action Waiver is found to be void or unenforceable in any way, all of the arbitration terms shall be deemed void and shall not apply, but all other parts of these Terms of Use terms will still apply.
