Stock Availability

The confirmation by e-mail you receive is confirmation that we have received your order and not a guarantee of stock availability. If we are unable to fulfil your order we will contact you within 2-3 working days from the date of the confirmation e-mail.

Contract Creation

The contract between us is concluded upon despatch of the goods ordered unless it has been cancelled in accordance with the stated procedure or we have informed you that your order has not been accepted. Non-acceptance of the order may occur, without limitation, because of: stock unavailability, goods description error, lack of payment authorisation, failure to meet all or any part of the required order eligibility criteria as set out herein.

Shipment

Please allow up to seven working days from confirmation of order for delivery. We will email you to confirm despatch. We can only deliver to addresses within mainland Great Britain (please note that this excludes Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man). Orders are generally sent via courier but we reserve the right to make alternative arrangements.

Delivery

The goods will be delivered to you, the buyer, at the address provided by you in your order. For security reasons we cannot deliver to a BFPO (British Forces Post Office) address. We reserve the right not to deliver to a specified address if, in our absolute discretion, we deem that the address may not be secure, such as a PO Box No, or if we have any other legitimate concerns. In the event that we decide not to deliver to a specified address we will notify you as soon as reasonably practicable and shall issue a refund of all sums received by us in respect of the relevant order to the credit/debit card from which those sums were received.

Any dates quoted for delivery of the goods are approximate only and we shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the goods however caused. If however we are unable to deliver your goods by the date quoted for delivery you, the buyer, shall be entitled to cancel the order at any time before delivery takes place. The risk in the goods shall pass to you upon delivery to you taking place.

You, the buyer, will inspect the goods as soon after delivery as is reasonably practicable and will notify us of any shortages, defects in the goods or any other complaint in respect of them within 10 working days from the date the goods were delivered to you. Save in respect of any shortages or defects if you, the buyer, fail to comply with this clause we will not be held legally liable in respect of any other complaint which should have been brought to our attention within this period.

Cancellation of Order

Please note that if you are contracting as a consumer you are entitled to cancel this contract if you so wish provided you do so within seven working days from the day after receipt by you of the goods. The goods must be returned intact and in original, undamaged packaging and we reserve the right to withhold a percentage of the refund value of the goods if they are damaged in any way. Provided that the goods have not been opened or damaged we will refund your credit/debit card with the original purchase price of the returned goods including original delivery costs and return postage within 30 days of receipt by us of the goods returned by you. This provision does not affect your statutory rights.

Guarantee and Refunds

In addition to cancelled orders and returns within 7 working days as described above we offer a full refund in respect of any damaged, incorrect or incomplete orders. Your statutory rights are unaffected. Upon receipt of the returned goods we shall examine the returned goods and will notify you of your refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time. We will usually process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day we confirmed to you via e-mail that you were entitled to a refund for the defective goods. Goods returned by you because of a defect 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. We will usually refund any money received from you to the same credit/debit card originally used by you to pay for your purchase. If you are returning anything to us, please ensure that it is safely packaged in the original packaging to prevent damage in transit.

PRICES AND PAYMENT

Prices and Taxes

The price of any goods will be as quoted on our online shop from time to time except in cases of obvious error.
