We reserve the right to withdraw any offers without notice.

SERVICE AVAILABILITY

Our site is only intended for use by people resident in the United Kingdom. We do not accept orders from individuals outside the United Kingdom. We only deliver to the United Kingdom.

YOUR STATUS

By placing an order through our site, you warrant that:

• You are legally capable of entering into binding contracts;
• You are at least 18 years old;
• You are resident in the United Kingdom; and
• You are accessing our site from that country.

HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US

Please note that due to the method we use for secure online payment we take full payment for your order in advance of despatch (pre-payment). After placing an order and making a pre-payment, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order and pre-payment (an Order acknowledgment). Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order and your pre-payment constitute an offer to us to buy a Product. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the Product has been dispatched (Dispatch Confirmation). The contract between us (Contract) will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation. If we do not accept your order we will return your pre-payment to you as soon as we reasonably can and in any event within 30 days of your original offer to us.

The Contract will relate only to those Products whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Products which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such Products has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.

CONSUMER RIGHTS

If you are contracting as a consumer, you may cancel a Contract at any time within seven working days, beginning on the day after you received the Products. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products in accordance with our refunds policy (set out below).

To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing and return the Product(s) to us immediately in the same condition in which you received them and unopened, and at your own cost and risk.

AVAILABILITY AND DELIVERY

Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of the date of the Dispatch Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances. However, we will endeavour to dispatch your order within 3-7 days working.

We will deliver the products ordered by you to the address you give us for delivery at the time you place your order. It is, however, your responsibility to provide us with accurate delivery address details. We do not check or verify addresses and messages supplied by you.

RISK AND TITLE

The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery.

Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.

PRICE AND PAYMENT

The price of any Products will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error.

These prices include VAT, where applicable, but exclude delivery costs.

Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you a Dispatch Confirmation.

Our site contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a Product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Products’ correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or cancel your order and notify you of such a cancellation.

We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.

Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card. We accept payment with Switch, Pay Pal. We charge your credit or debit card in full when you place an order. Any credits due for refunds or cancellation are processed as soon as possible but in any event within 30 days of notification of such refunds or cancellation. Please refer to the clauses below; ‘Our refunds policy’ and ‘We may not accept your order’ for more details.

RE-SALE

You are not permitted to sell and must not offer for sale or re-sell any of our Products.

OUR REFUNDS POLICY

When you return a Product to us (for instance, because you have cancelled the Contract between us, or have notified us in accordance with the paragraph below ‘Our right to vary theses terms and conditions’, that you do not agree to any change in these terms and conditions or in any of our policies, or because you claim that the Product is defective), we will examine the returned Product and will notify you of your refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time. We will usually refund any money received from you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase. We will usually process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day we received your cancellation or the day we confirmed to you via e-mail that you were entitled to a refund for delivery of the defective Product.

Products returned by you because they are not of satisfactory quality will be refunded in full, including a refund of the delivery charges for sending the item to you and the cost incurred by you in returning the item to us.

Products returned by you within the seven-day cooling-off period (see the Consumer Rights paragraphs above) will be refunded in full, including the cost of sending the item to You. However, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the item to us.
