  8. OUR AGREEMENT FOR THE SALE OF GOODS AND THE ORDERING PROCESS
    1. The Website displays Goods which are advertised for sale and gives information about them. By advertising Goods on the Website, We are inviting You to place an Order with Us. If You place an Order, We are not obliged to accept that Order and the Contract between Us will only be formed if and when We accept Your Order. Neither submitting an electronic order form, nor completing the checkout process constitutes Our acceptance of Your Order. Our acceptance of Your order and the formation of a binding contract between You and Us will take place when We dispatch the Goods to You. Up until this point, there will be no contract in place between You and Us, which means that neither You nor We will have any rights against or obligations towards the other (i.e. these Terms will not apply to Your order until We accept Your contract by dispatching the Goods). You may include any number of items within a single Order, subject to any restrictions set out in these Terms or on the Website and each Order which You place will be a separate Contract between Us. We reserve the right to refuse to supply Goods to any person.
    2. Any terms and conditions appearing or referred to in the Order or otherwise stipulated by You shall have no effect. Any variation of the Contract must be confirmed in writing by Us.
  9. CHOOSING AND PAYING FOR GOODS AND ARRANGING DELIVERY
    1. Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please take the time to read and check your order at each stage of the order process.
    2. You must ensure that you provide us with correct billing details and payment information. If you provide incorrect, incomplete or misleading information we may be unable to process your order.
    3. You must ensure that you provide us with correct delivery details. We accept no responsibility for delay or for Goods that fail to reach You as a result of You providing delivery information to Us that is incorrect, incomplete or misleading. In such circumstances we will not refund the cost of the Goods unless they are returned to us undamaged, unused and unopened. It will be Your responsibility to arrange for the Goods to be returned to Us if You require a refund or to You if You wish to keep the Goods. You will be responsible for any charges, levies, fines or any other costs that result from either the incorrect delivery or the return of the Goods to Us or the redelivery of the Goods to You.
    4. After You place an order, we will send You an e-mail to confirm that We have received it (Order Acknowledgement). However, this does not mean that Your order has been accepted by Us.
    5. By completing Your order and submitting payment information You are confirming that You have read these Terms and agree to be bound by them and that they will apply to Your Contract wih Us. At this point Your details will be submitted to Us.
    6. Once We have received confirmation that Your payment has been authorised, You will be given an Order reference and an e-mail will be sent to You to acknowledge Your Order. It will confirm the Goods, price and any delivery charge. Print a copy of the Order acknowledgment and e-mail and keep them for Your records. Please note, Our acceptance of Your Order (regardless of the content of any emails We send You) will only take place when we despatch Your Order.
    7. We may refuse Your Order or cancel Your Order if We decide it is reasonable to do so which may include circumstances where:
      1. We are unable to obtain authorised payment or the payment process is incomplete; or
      2. We identify a product or pricing error on the Website; or
      3. You fail to meet any criteria for eligibility of purchase which We may impose from time to time; or
      4. We suspect that Your Order is related to fraudulent activity; or
      5. You fail to submit all necessary and relevant details to allow Us to fulfil the Order; or
      6. Goods are unavailable or out of stock.
    8. We may contact You by telephone or email to verify details before We are able to process and despatch Your Order or We may be unable to accept it. For example, We may do this if Your Order is of particularly high value.
    9. The Goods shown for sale on this Website are intended for private, consumer use and You must not resell Goods or offer them as a commercial enterprise. We reserve the right to limit the total value of Goods which can be included in an Order. If the total value of Goods in Your bag exceeds the limit which We may choose from time to time, then We will contact You.
    10. We accept no liability for:
      1. economic loss (examples of which are loss of revenues, data, profits, contracts, business or anticipated savings),
      2. business losses or expenses,
      3. loss of goodwill or reputation, or
      4. indirect loss or damage,

        That result either directly or indirectly as a result either from You providing incorrect, incomplete or misleading payment or delivery information to Us or from Us refusing or cancelling Your Order.
  10. PRICE AND PAYMENT
    1. Prices and delivery charges are as published on the Website when We accept Your Order. Prices are in pounds sterling. Delivery charges are shown separately. Standard delivery charges are as stated on the Website at the time You place Your Order. If there are any additional charges associated with delivery of Your order either because of the nature of the Goods or Your chosen delivery address or special requirements of the couriers or any other special requirements agreed between You and Us, We will contact You by email or telephone. Your Order will not be processed or despatched until such charges are paid.
    2. The prices displayed on our site are sometimes the same as the prices in our shop. However, we may offer different prices for Products purchased from our site to those in the shop. These prices may be higher or lower than in our shop and our shop is under no obligation to match the prices quoted on this site, likewise this site is under no obligation to match our shop prices.
    3. We take care to ensure that the prices of Products on our site are correct. However, due to the large number of Products on our site it is possible that, despite our best efforts, some of them may be incorrectly priced. We normally verify Product prices following receipt of an order and if we discover an error in the price of the Products you have ordered we will contact you to you to give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing.
    4. Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a pricing error, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price even if we have failed to notify you that we do not accept your order within 7 days of our sending our Order Acknowledgement.
    5. The price of all Products are displayed without and with VAT (where applicable) but does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are detailed on our site.
    6. We may amend prices at any time. Where there is a difference between a price at the time the Order is made and when We ship Your Order, We will inform You by email or telephone and ask You if You wish to proceed. If You decline and for any reason payment has already been taken, it will be re-credited to Your credit or debit account.
    7. Offers and promotions on the Website are subject to availability and We may change or withdraw them at any time and without notice. Nothing shall oblige Us to maintain offers or promotions for any period. Additional terms may apply, details of which will be displayed.
    8. We must receive payment for the Goods in full before they are dispatched.
    9. We accept payment by most major credit and debit cards including Visa, MasterCard and Maestro. You must only use a card if You are the named cardholder. By placing an Order, You confirm that You are the authorised cardholder. All credit and charge card holders are subject to validation and security checks as well as authorisation by the card issuer and any additional terms imposed by the issuer. If the issuer does not authorise payment, We will not accept Your Order and will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.
    10. Your card provider may charge You for using Your card on our Website. Please check the terms and conditions with Your card provider carefully and in advance of submitting Your payment details.
    11. If We do not have sufficient stock of Goods, We will notify You by e-mail or telephone and Your credit or debit card transaction will be cancelled or refunded. We will do this as soon as possible and by no later than 30 (thirty) days from the due delivery date. We will not be responsible for any compensation if Goods which You order are not available for any reason.
    12. We will validate the names, addresses and other details supplied by You against commercially available records (including Electoral Roll data and credit reference services). We may also use third parties to do this. Information which You provide to Us may be disclosed to a registered credit reference agency which may keep a record of the information. By ordering from Us You agree to such checks. Please refer also to Our Privacy Policy. These measures are taken to protect You, to ensure Your shopping experience with Us is as secure as possible.
  11. DELIVERY
    1. Any quoted delivery dates and times are estimates and although we will try Our best to meet them We will not be responsible if We are unable to do so. We will let You know within 30 days of when We receive Your payment if we cannot deliver Your products within 30 days of us accepting Your order and will give You the option to either wait for the Products or cancel Your Order and receive a full refund.
    2. We strongly recommend that you do not book fitters or trades persons until your order has been delivered and checked by you. We cannot be held responsible for any third-party costs or charges which you incur due to non-delivery of an order, or orders that have not been checked on delivery.
    3. We are not able to process orders or deliver on UK Bank Holidays or weekends.
    4. Ownership of the Goods will only pass to You upon despatch of the Goods. The Goods will be at Your risk from the time of delivery and You should therefore take reasonable care of them.
    5. Each order You place must be delivered to a single address. If You wish Goods to be delivered to more than one destination, You must order them on separate orders.
    6. To minimise inconvenience We will, wherever possible, try to make one single delivery to you. This means that if Your order contains a mix of products with different delivery lead times, the longest lead time will apply to the whole order. If You contact Us and arrange to have items delivered separately as they are available You will be charged additional delivery charges which must be paid in full prior to goods being despatched. When You place an order containing a mix of products that includes any items that are to be delivered directly to You from a supplier or manufacturer, one single delivery will not be possible.
    7. All deliveries must be received and signed for by a person over the age of 18 unless You have arranged otherwise with us prior to Goods being despatched. Our carriers will always attempt to deliver to your delivery address before attempting to leave with a neighbour or leave your Goods in a safe place. If no-one is available to take the delivery and you have specified that you are happy for the Goods to be left in a safe place it will be left to the carrier's discretion to decide whether it is safe to do so. In all cases where Goods are not signed for at the specified address our carriers will leave a card detailing the action that they have taken. If the Goods have been retained by the carrier they will leave details at the delivery address to rearrange delivery. We may need to make an additional handling charge for redelivery. Should no-one be available to take the redelivery we may cancel the order and refund your money, excluding any delivery charges.
    8. Due to insurance guidelines, delivery personnel are unable to enter private residences. The recipient of the Products is responsible for any additional lifting once the delivery has been made.
    9. Risk of loss and damage in the Products will pass to You on the date when the Products are delivered or on the date on which We make our first attempt to deliver them to You.

        1. If You believe that Goods have a defect then You must not make any further use of them.
        2. You must not return any Goods to Us before we instruct you to do so. In some instances we need to make arrangements with manufacturers for return and / or replacement of goods.

If an exact replacement is not possible, We will offer You the choice of an alternative similar product or a refund. It may also be possible for us to carry out a repair in certain circumstances.
