If you require advice in relation to the Goods/Services, a specific request for advice should be made.
3.7 We reserve the right to increase the price of the Goods/Services by giving notice to you prior to delivery to cover:
3.7.1 any increase in the cost which is due to any factor beyond our control including, without limitation, any foreign exchange fluctuation, currency regulation, alteration of duties, significant increases in the costs of labour, materials, or other costs of manufacture;
3.7.2 any change in delivery dates, quantities or specification of the Goods/Services which are requested by you; or
3.7.3 any delay caused by any failure by you to give us adequate information or instructions, but if you do not wish to pay the higher price, you may cancel your order and claim a full refund.
3.8 Where you require delivery to be made, we may require you to pay a charge for the delivery of the Goods/Services in addition to the price and, if applicable, this charge will be quoted to you at the time of contract.
3.9 The price of the Goods/Services shipped to EU/EFTA and their delivery charges are inclusive of VAT unless VAT is shown as a separate element.
3.10 Prices and delivery charges displayed or otherwise communicated are valid and effective in all of EU/EFTA.

4.2 Payment by credit card will not be effective until we are in receipt of cleared funds.
5. Our Delivery of the Goods/Services
5.1 Before we agree to deliver the Goods/Services to you, you must provide us with an address for delivery along with all of the information which we will reasonably require to enable us to determine whether we will be able to deliver the Goods/Services, the appropriate method of delivery and the cost to you of providing the delivery service.
5.2 Prior to delivery of the Goods/Services, we will agree with you a time for delivery of the Goods/Services.
5.3 If we are unable to make an agreed delivery to your address for reasons due to our own fault, we will inform you as soon as possible and refund or re-credit you for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your credit card for delivery.
5.4 Typically we ship all the goods with economy mail. If you have requested a premium delivery, and if there is no one at the address you have given who is competent (over the age of 18 years) to accept delivery of the Goods/Services by signing for them, we will seek to agree an alternative delivery date, or agree for you to collect the Goods/Services. We reserve the right to make an additional charge for re-delivery of the Goods/Services and you will be informed of the amount at the time we arrange an alternative date.
5.5 If Goods/Services are to be deposited other than on your private premises we will deliver the Goods/Services as near as possible to the delivery address as is safe and the public highway permits. You will be responsible for complying with all regulations, permits and charges and for all steps which need to be taken for the protection at all times of persons or property. You will reimburse us in respect of all reasonable losses, damages, costs and expenses we may incur as a result of such delivery whether on the public highway or elsewhere. We will remain liable for all losses caused by Our own negligence.
5.6 We will only enter private property if we are given specific authority. Once invited onto private property we accept no liability for damage caused to that property by our delivery drivers (whether directly employed by us or by a third party) unless caused by Our own negligence. We reserve the right to refuse to deliver the Goods/Services to premises that are considered by our delivery drivers to be unsuitable or unsafe. We will notify You as soon as reasonably possible of the reason for non-delivery.
5.7 You agree to reimburse us in respect of all losses, damages, costs and expenses that we incur in complying with any specific delivery instructions which you may give us and which relate to clauses 5.5 and 5.6 above. Any amount which you reimburse to us will be reduced in proportion to the extent that such losses, damages, costs and expenses are due to our negligence.
5.8 Unless we state otherwise, all our quotations and estimates assume delivery of the full contracted amount of Goods/Services. We reserve the right to levy additional charges for deliveries by instalments where requested by you.
5.9 Our delivery price includes the cost of delivery on week days during our normal working hours. An additional charge may be made if we agree to your request to deliver outside normal working hours or on Saturdays, Sundays and/or bank holidays.
5.10 If you keep our delivery vehicle waiting for an unreasonable time or the delivery driver is obliged to return without completing delivery, or if due to the nature of the Goods/Services we have to provide additional staff to unload Goods/Services, a reasonable additional charge will be made that reflects the extra services provided.
5.11 We will not be liable for any death, or personal injury to you or anyone under your control during unloading that was not caused by our negligence or by a breach of our statutory duty.
6. Your Cancellation and Return of the Goods/Services
6.1 You do not have an automatic right to change your mind and cancel the contract unless it has been made by telephone, mail order or by the internet, (at a “Distance”). We may at our discretion accept the return of certain Goods/Services not purchased from us at a Distance (see clause 6.2). This clause does not affect your right to return any faulty or mis-described Goods/Services.
6.2 For contracts not made at a Distance and where you purchase Goods/Services from us from stock we may at our discretion accept the Goods/Services back, in which case we will issue you with a credit note for the purchase price less reasonable costs incurred. Goods/Services to be returned must be delivered back to us at your cost with proof of purchase and be in the same condition that they were in at the time of purchase. We will be unable to accept back Goods/Services that were not held in stock and were especially ordered on your behalf. This clause does not affect your right to return faulty or mis-described Goods/Services.
6.3 If you cancel the Contract when it has not been made at a Distance and we have not agreed to take back the Goods/Services you will be liable for reasonable costs that we have incurred. If we have already accepted a part-payment or deposit, we will consider whether this covers the losses we are entitled to claim and if it does not we may claim extra from you. If the part-payment or deposit is in excess of our losses, we will refund the balance. This clause does not affect your right to return faulty or mis-described Goods/Services.
Goods/Services ordered at a Distance
6.4 If you have ordered Goods/Services at a Distance you have the right to cancel the Contract at any time up to the end of 14 days after you receive the Goods/Services.
6.5 To exercise your right of cancellation, you must give written notice to us by hand, post, or email, at the address, or email address shown at the end of these Terms, giving details of the Goods/Services ordered and (where appropriate) their delivery.
6.6 If you exercise your right of cancellation after the Goods/Services have been delivered to you, you will be responsible for returning the Goods/Services to us at your own cost. The Goods/Services must be returned to our address shown at the end of these Terms. You must take reasonable care to ensure the Goods/Services are not damaged in the meantime or in transit. If the goods/services are damaged (or have been modified) by you or are damaged in transit in a way that you could have foreseen (such as not being sent back in the same or similar packaging as sent to you), we will assess what damage has been caused and if some or all of the goods/services are not in saleable condition then those goods/services will be rejected and a proportionate part of the refund withheld.
6.7 Once you have notified us that you are cancelling the Contract, we will refund or credit you within 30 days for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your credit card for the Goods/Services.
6.8 If you do not return the Goods/Services as required under Clause 6.6, we may charge you a sum not exceeding our direct costs of recovering the Goods/Services.
6.9 You do not have the right to cancel the Contract if your order is for perishable Goods/Services that have been unsealed by you, or for Goods/Services that by their nature (such as bespoke goods/services or items which have been personalised at your request) cannot be returned or are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly.
7. Your Acceptance of the goods/services
7.1 Your acceptance of Goods/Services can take place in three ways:
7.1.1 by telling us that you have accepted the Goods/Services;
7.1.2 by altering or customising the Goods/Services in any way; or
7.1.3 by keeping the Goods/Services longer than a reasonable time without telling us that you have rejected them.
8. Your Responsibilities on Delivery including Inspection
8.1 If you are not satisfied with the Goods/Services, if they do not conform with your order, if they are damaged or faulty, if they are not of satisfactory quality or are otherwise defective you should reject them on delivery, or, if a defect is found within a reasonable time after delivery we will (subject to confirmation of the defect) exchange the Goods/Services or refund you in full.
8.2 Should a short delivery (of less than the full quantity of Goods/Services ordered) have been made, you must notify us within a reasonable time of discovery of the short delivery. Our liability for this short delivery is limited to making good the shortage and any reasonable loss or damages you have suffered due to the short delivery.
8.3 Where it would have been apparent on a reasonable inspection that the Goods/Services do not conform to the Contract and you fail to give us notice of this within a reasonable time you will be deemed to have accepted the Goods/Services and have waived any right to reject the Goods/Services.
9. Defective Goods/Services
9.1 If the Goods/Services have a defect at the time of sale and you have not yet accepted the Goods/Services, we will refund you in full. Where you have accepted the Goods/Services, you lose the right to a refund. However, you retain the right to the Remedies.
9.2 If the Goods/Services have a defect and you have accepted them, you will be entitled to Remedies. We will not pay compensation for any consequential damage (including but not being limited to loss of profit, loss of income, loss of business, loss of revenue, loss of goodwill or any other indirect or consequential loss of any kind) resulting from use of the defective Goods/Services, where such damage was not reasonably foreseeable to us at the time the Contract was made or where such losses can be reasonably described as arising in the course of your trade or business.
9.3 If you do not accept the Goods/Services you may claim a full refund or Remedies only if the Goods/Services are not (a) of a satisfactory quality or (b) fit for purpose or (c) as described at the time of purchase.
9.4 You may claim Remedies within the first month after purchase unless we prove that the Goods/Services conformed to the Contract at the time of sale.
9.5 If you claim Remedies more than one month after purchase you must prove that the Goods/Services did not conform to the Contract at the time of sale.
9.6 You cannot make a claim for Remedies in the following cases:
9.6.1 if the defect or fault was brought to your attention on or before the time of sale;
9.6.2 if you inspected the Goods/Services on or before the time of sale and the defect or fault was or should have been readily noticeable;
9.6.3 if the defect or fault would have become apparent on inspection within a reasonable time from delivery and notice of the defect has not been given to us within a reasonable time from when the defect became apparent;
9.6.4 if the defect arises from your willful actions, negligence, abnormal working conditions, misuse, alteration or repair of the Goods/Services, failure to follow instructions relevant to the Goods/Services or storage of the Goods/Services in unsuitable conditions;
9.6.5 if you change your mind about wanting the Goods/Services or if after purchase you decide that you do not like a cosmetic aspect of the Goods/Services such as colour or shape that was clearly intrinsic to the Goods/Services at the time of purchase;
9.6.6 if you chose the Goods/Services yourself for a purpose which was neither obvious nor made known to us and you find the item unsuitable for that purpose; or
9.6.7 if the defect is a result of fair wear and tear.
