• You agree not to post or transfer to the Shop (nor include in any message) any material which is obscene, misleading, inaccurate, defamatory, illegal, in breach of any copyright or other intellectual property right, or damaging to data, software or the performance of our or any other parties’ computer system. You agree to indemnify us in respect of any liabilities, losses, expenses, or other costs whatsoever incurred as a result of a breach of your obligation under this condition 3(2), including, but not limited to, any claims made against us by any third party.

Any data about individuals you enter onto the Shop directly or include in any message to us will be subject to the Act and you are responsible for its accuracy and relevance and must have the authority to disclose it and for us to utilise it for the purposes of any transaction concluded for or by you through the Shop. We will process your personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
• In consideration of agreeing to your use of the Shop, you acknowledge that the ownership in any intellectual property rights (including, for the avoidance of doubt, copyright, database rights and trade marks) in the Shop belongs to us and/or the manufacturers of goods featured. Accordingly, no part of the Shop (or its source code) may be used, transferred, copied or reproduced in whole or in part in any manner other than for the purposes of utilising the Shop meaning that you may only display it on your computer screen and print it out on your printer for the sole purpose of viewing its content and placing orders.
• You may not link the Shop to any other website without our express authority in writing. Furthermore, we do not make any warranties, representations or undertakings about the content of any other website which may be referred to or accessed by hypertext link with the Shop, and we do not endorse or approve the content of such third party websites.

PURCHASING GOODS AND THE ON-LINE ORDERING SYSTEM

• Your Account

  • You are solely responsible for restricting access to your computer to prevent unauthorised purchases on your account.
  • You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account.
  • You should inform us immediately if you have any reason to believe that your account details are being, or are likely to be, used in an unauthorised manner.
  • Please ensure that the details you provide us with are correct and complete and inform us immediately of any changes to the information that you provided when registering.

• Contract Formation

  • In order to conclude a legally binding contract with us you must first agree unconditionally to these terms and conditions before completing and submitting our online Order Form by clicking on the “Submit Order” button which appears at the end of the form. Your order represents an offer to us to purchase a product or products which will be acknowledged as received by us in a confirmatory electronic mail (“your Order Confirmation”). The contract will only be formed by our acceptance of your offer. That acceptance will be deemed complete at the time we send a VAT invoice to you (whether or not you receive the VAT invoice).
  • Any products on the same order which we have not confirmed in a VAT invoice do not form part of that contract.
  • For the avoidance of doubt, your Order Confirmation is for your convenience only and does not constitute an acceptance of your order. Please note that whilst we guarantee to send an Order Confirmation of every valid order we receive from you, you will understand that we cannot equally guarantee that the Order Confirmation we send will be received by you, nor that, if it is received by you, it is legible and uncorrupted.
  • We reserve the right not to process your order for any reason and accordingly, we will notify you as soon as reasonably possible by electronic mail if this is the case. If you are under the age of 18, you may use the Shop and the on-line ordering service only with the involvement and express permission of a parent or guardian.
  • These terms and conditions shall override any contrary terms or conditions published by us or appearing on the Shop in relation to any order placed by you with us. However these terms shall be deemed to incorporate (and you agree to be bound by) any additional terms and conditions which may apply to offers and promotions appearing on the Shop from time to time.
  • We reserve the right to change our terms and conditions from time to time at our sole discretion without liability to you. The latest terms and conditions will be made available on the Shop.

• Description and Availability

  • Every effort will be made to ensure that the goods you receive match the description and images (if any) set out on this Shop as far as reasonably possible. However, you acknowledge that some variation may occur and we reserve the right to substitute goods within your order with goods of an equivalent nature. If you do not wish to accept the substituted goods then you must return them to us within 7 days of their receipt.
  • The listing of a product on the Shop is not an indicator of its availability. As we process your order, we will inform you by e-mail if any products you order turn out to be unavailable.

• Pricing

  • Products advertised on the Shop will be priced in pounds sterling. However, for your convenience we may provide you with the option to view the approximate equivalent price in your local currency if you are based outside of the UK. Any such local price is an indication only. All transactions are debited in pounds sterling and the amount charged to you may differ from the local price indication due to exchange rate fluctuations and other factors beyond our control.
  • Unless otherwise stated all prices of goods advertised in pounds sterling on this Shop are inclusive of VAT. You may view your total charge (including VAT and delivery) at the shopping basket page.
  • Despite our careful attention to pricing, an item could be priced incorrectly. If an item's correct price is lower than our quoted price, we will charge the lower (correct) amount and deliver the item to you. If an item's correct price is higher than our quoted price, we shall have the right to refuse or cancel any such orders whether or not the order has been confirmed and your credit card charged. However, we might at our discretion decide to honour the lower (incorrect) price and send the item in order not to cause you inconvenience.
  • In an effort to provide our customers with the most current information, price and availability information is subject to change without notice.

• Payment

  • Where you purchase goods for cash, payment shall be made by you electronically in pounds sterling on order for all monies owed to us in respect of orders placed on this Shop (“Cash Payment”).
  • Time for Cash Payment shall be of the essence.
  • No Cash Payment shall be deemed to have been received until we have received cleared funds.
  • If you fail to pay us any sum due you shall be liable to pay interest to us on such sum from the due date for Cash Payment at the annual rate of 8% above the base lending rate from time to time of the Bank of England, accruing on a daily basis until payment is made. We reserve the right to claim interest under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.
  • If your order contains products that are either not in stock or have been discontinued we will contact you and give you the option of either waiting until the product becomes available or cancelling your order for that product or selecting an alternative product to the same value in pounds sterling that is in stock as appropriate.

• Ownership/Risk

  The risk of damage to or loss of goods supplied by us will pass to you when the goods are dispatched from our premises. We will not despatch goods to you until we are in receipt of Cash Payment in full (including VAT) in cleared funds and ownership in the goods remains with us until that point.

• Delivery

  • Unless otherwise agreed, orders are dispatched by Royal Mail first class post, although we reserve the right to use an equivalent or better service operated by Royal Mail or another carrier.
  • Subject to Condition 5.ii, we will dispatch your order within normal working hours (9am to 5pm) within seven business days (i.e. excludes weekends and bank holidays) from receipt of your order provided it is received by us before 5pm on a business day. If your order is received on a weekend or bank holiday or after 5pm it will be deemed to be received by us on the following business day.
  • If for any reason we cannot dispatch your order within our time period you may at your option cancel your order and we will provide you with a full refund in accordance with 5.viii.i.
  • Delivery times are dependent on the carrier and our liability for non-delivery shall be limited to replacing the contracted goods within a reasonable time or issuing a credit note against any invoice raised for such goods.

• Returns, shortages and refunds

  • By law, customers located in the European Union have the right to withdraw from the purchase of certain items (see 5.viii.b below) within seven working days of the day after the date the item was delivered. You must inform us in writing within seven working days starting with the day on which they are delivered, you must ensure that you take reasonable care of the goods and return them to us at your cost. We will refund the amount you paid for the returned goods in accordance with 5.viii.j as soon as possible and at the latest within 30 days of receiving written notice of your decision to cancel your purchase.

  • You can not cancel your order if:

    • the goods are made to your own specifications (i.e. are custom made);
    • the goods by their very nature cannot be returned;
    • they are goods or services where the price depends on fluctuations in the financial markets which cannot be controlled by us;
    • they are perishable goods;
    • they are DVDs, CDs, software or audio or video tapes that you have unsealed;
    • they are newspapers, periodicals or magazines;
    • they are betting and lottery services.
  • We want you to be happy with every purchase you make with us. Occasionally we anticipate that you may wish to return an item. For this reason we offer a hassle free returns policy. You must contact us within fourteen days of receipt of the goods and return them to us at your cost. The goods have to be in a resalable condition (i.e. the product is to be in its original packaging, unopened, and able to be resold) for you to receive a full refund. We may accept returns for items not required after fourteen days but only at our discretion.
  • If you have items missing from your order (i.e. shortages) please check firstly to see if there is another parcel due to you. You can do this by contacting us on the telephone contact details on your delivery note. Please check your email and delivery note to confirm that an item is not on backorder before raising a query.
  • Damaged items and shortages need to be brought to our attention within seven working days from delivery.
  • You have the right to return a faulty item within a reasonable period of time. Please keep all the warranty information that accompanies your item as this may be needed should there be a fault. In the unlikely event that a fault is confirmed we agree to reimburse you the reasonable cost of returning the product to us. Alternatively, you may find it quicker and easier to contact the manufacturer directly so that they can identify the fault and rectify the problem for you.
  • If the delivered item(s) do not match what you have ordered you must tell us within 14 days from the date of delivery and return the item to us. We agree to refund the reasonable costs of returning the product(s) to us. The goods need to be in their original packaging and in good condition.
  • We will provide you with a returns and/or re-order number if required via email after which you must return the goods to us within seven working days. Please ensure that the returns number is with your package.
  • Subject to these terms and conditions, we will either provide you with a replacement at your request or provide you with a refund within one week of collection.
  • If you paid by credit card your card will be refunded (including any reasonable costs of return due) and you will be e-mailed a 'credit note' which is simply a reference of the transaction. Please be aware that the refund may take up to 3 working days to show on your card statement depending on your card provider.
  • If you find that your goods have been returned but you have not been refunded, please contact us.
