TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

Acceptance of Your Order

Your order on our website constitutes an offer to us to purchase the goods and or services in your basket for personal usage or consumption, and we will do our utmost to fulfil this order to the service levels you expect. So as to meet our service commitment to you, we will store your order and necessary personal details, obtain authorisation from your bank for the payment and make certain security checks on your identity and address (in line with our Privacy Policy).

We will not accept your order until such time that you are emailed to say that the products you have ordered have been dispatched. Once you receive such an email, we will be contracted to you, and your contract will be concluded upon delivery of the products or completion of the services.

Any products or services on the same order that we have not yet confirmed via email will not form part of that contract and will form part of a separate contract when the remaining products have been dispatched. Placing an order does not constitute a contract with us until we confirm the products as dispatched.

We reserve the right not to accept your order for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, payment problems, product availability and product price or description error.

Quantity Restricted Products

Some of our products are restricted to a maximum number of units that you may order. If you select more than the maximum number allowed, we will have to cancel part of your order. If you select more than the allowed number of units, we will have to cancel the part of your order that exceeds the maximum allowed. In the event that this happens, one of our customer service team will contact you, and you will receive a full refund for those items which we are unable to send you. We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause you.

Promotional Codes and Free Delivery

We cannot retrospectively apply a promotional code to your order. If you place an order without correctly applying the promotional code, we will be unable to reimburse you the discount once the order has been placed. If you are having any difficulties in applying a promotional code or believe the code to be faulty, please contact us on [email protected]

If free delivery is not selected, we are unable to reimburse any delivery charges that were payed for during ordering. It is down to customer to check that they have selected the right delivery option upon checkout.

If free delivery is granted and you wish to return your order for any reason. We will then backdate the delivery charges, and you will be charged for the original postage costs encountered when your item was dispatched to you. These charges will be deducted from the refund amount. If free delivery was granted on an order containing multiple items, and you wish to return only a select number of items from the order to us, if the value of the items kept by the customer fall below the order total that qualifies for free delivery, then the original postage costs encountered when despatching the item to the customer, will be deducted from the refund amount.
