  2. Our contract with you
    1. Placing your order. Please follow the onscreen prompts to place an order. Each order is an offer by you to buy the goods specified in the order subject to these terms.
    2. Correcting input errors. Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please check the order carefully before confirming it. You are responsible for ensuring that your order is complete and accurate.
    3. Accepting your order. Our acceptance of your order takes place when we send the email to you to accept it, at which point the contract between you and us will come into existence.
    4. If we cannot accept your order. Sometimes we reject orders, for example, because goods are unexpectedly out of stock, because you are located outside our delivery areas, as stated on our website, or because the goods were mispriced by us. When this happens, we let you know as soon as possible.
  3. Our goods
    1. The images of the goods on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that your computer’s display of the colours accurately reflect the colour of the goods. The colour of your goods may vary slightly from those images.
    2. The packaging of your goods may vary from that shown on images on our website.
    3. We reserve the right to amend the specification of the goods if required by any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement.
  4. Price
    1. The prices of the goods will be as quoted on our website at the time you submit your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices of goods are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. However, please see clause 4.5 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of goods you ordered.
    2. Prices for our goods may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order you have already placed.
    3. The price of goods includes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being.
    4. The price of the goods does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process, before you confirm your order.
    5. We sell a large number of goods through our site. It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the goods on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that:
      1. where the goods’ correct price is less than the price stated on our site, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the goods to you; and
      2. if the goods’ correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the goods 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. However, if we mistakenly accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may cancel supply of the goods and refund you any sums you have paid.
  5. How to pay
    1. You can only pay for goods using PayPal.
    2. We take payment for the goods when you order.
  6. Providing the goods

All goods will be delivered by Royal Mail 2nd Class post.
    2. We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the goods is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any goods you have paid for but not received.
    3. If you are not available when the goods are delivered. If no one is available at your address to take delivery and the goods cannot be posted through your letterbox, we will leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery or collect the goods from a local depot.
    4. If you do not re-arrange delivery. If, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery we may end the contract and clause 13 will apply.
    5. When you become responsible for the goods. The goods will be your responsibility from the time we deliver the goods to the address you gave us or, after a failed delivery, you or someone acting on your behalf collect it from a delivery depot.

    7. We reduce your refund if you have used or damaged the goods. If you handle the goods in a way which would not be acceptable in-store, we reduce your refund, to compensate us for its reduced value. For example, we reduce your refund if the goods’ condition is not “as new”, price tags have been removed, the packaging is damaged or accessories are missing. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the goods, no refund may be due.
    8. When and how we refund you. We refund you within 14 days of receiving the goods back from you (or receiving evidence you’ve sent them to us). We refund you by PayPal. We don’t charge a fee for the refund.

    1. Our liability to consumers. We’re responsible for losses you suffer caused by us breaking this contract unless the loss is:
      1. Unexpected. It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable).

      3. Avoidable. Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action

      2. our total liability to you for all other losses arising under or in connection with any contract between us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall be limited to the total sums paid by you for goods under such contract.
  15. Losses we never limit or exclude. Nothing in these terms shall limit or exclude our liability for:
    1. death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors (as applicable);

    3. breach of the terms implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 or section 2 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982;
    4. defective goods under the Consumer Protection Act 1987; or
    5. any matter in respect of which it would be unlawful for us to exclude or restrict liability.

  19. Other important terms apply to our contract
    1. We can transfer our contract with you, so that a different organisation is responsible for supplying your goods. We’ll tell you in writing if this happens and if you are a consumer, we’ll ensure that the transfer won’t affect your rights under the contract.
    2. You can only transfer your contract with us to someone else if we agree to this. If you’re a consumer we may not agree if, for example, the person to whom you wish to transfer the contract has a delivery address outside of the UK. If you’re a business you need our agreement to transfer your contract with us and it’s entirely up to us whether we give it.
  20. Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. Nobody else can enforce it and neither of us will need to ask anybody else to sign-off on ending or changing it.
  21. If a court invalidates some of this contract, the rest of it will still apply. If a court or other authority decides that some of these terms are unlawful, the rest will continue to apply.
  22. Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. We might not immediately chase you for not doing something (like paying) or for doing something you’re not allowed to, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do it later.
