Terms

By using this site and placing orders herein you are agreeing to the following terms and conditions.

 

1. Ordering and Availability
1.1 All items offered on our website are subject to availability and price change. We will endeavour to notify you within seven working days of your order being placed, if it can not be despatched straight away. You are of course free to cancel your order if we cannot fulfil within our allocated time frame.


1.2 Orders for all our products can be placed via our Secure Online Server or by telephone.


1.3 All orders placed will be treated as an offer to purchase that must be accompanied by a deposit of the full amount of your offer. Any automated reply that you receive shall not be deemed to be our acceptance of your offer to purchase. We reserve the right to refuse or reject any offer to purchase at any time - if an offer is refused, we will refund your deposit in full, if payment has already been taken.


1.4 We aim to process and despatch all orders as quickly as possible. If your order is delayed and will take longer than 10 working days, you will be advised so you have the opportunity to cancel. Cancellations due to slow despatch will be accepted if we have taken more than 10 working days to despatch your order. You will be advised by e-mail when your order has been despatched where possible.


1.5 All orders are checked by us for the security of both you and us. We (or our payment provider) may request proof of address and/or proof of identification from you before your order can be processed. If this is the case we will contact you giving you full details of what is required.


1.6 All Internet orders must be accompanied by active credit or debit card information. This information is handled and authorised by our third party payment provider and we cannot be held responsible for any misuse of your details originating at the payment provider.


2. Payment and Ownership of Goods
2.1 We accept payment by all cards accepted by our payment provider. Should you return your goods for a refund your card will be refunded in accordance with the terms and time scale of the payment provider. In these Terms and Conditions of Business:- "Goods" means goods or products offered for sale by us. Your payment is accepted as a deposit under your offer of purchase and is therefore not to be considered a sale until your offer has been formally accepted by e-mail on despatch of your order, or your goods have been despatched to you.


2.2 When ordering goods for delivery outside the European Union you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the package reaches the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be.

Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so you should contact your local customs office for further information. Additionally, please note that when ordering, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods. Your privacy is important to us and we know that you care about how information about your order is used and shared. We would like our international customers and customers dispatching products internationally to be aware that cross-border deliveries are subject to opening and inspection by customs authorities.

Goods should be in their original unused condition, complete with all original items.

Refunds will normally be credited to the payment card details provided at the time of ordering the goods from us - e.g. refunded to your credit or debit card. Alternatively, we may send you a cheque or postal order for the refund or offer items of similar value if you accept.

9.2 A charge (as above) will be made for any goods that are returned back in an un-saleable or incomplete condition. This will be deducted from your refund if applicable or charged against your debit or credit card details as provided at the time of ordering.
Refunds are processed through our payment provider and the time it takes for transfer of funds is subject to their terms and conditions.
