Purchasing From Us

The Web Site and the goods sold through it are subject to change without notice and we reserve the right to improve, alter or modify designs without prior notification. We may inform you of any changes to the advertised goods prior to despatch of such goods. If you are unhappy with these improved, altered or modified goods you may inform us within 14 days, starting on the day after the goods are delivered to you. In order to receive a refund, the goods must be returned in their original condition and preferably with all packaging intact, together with your invoice. We recommend that you retain all of the original packaging until you are sure that you intend to keep the goods. Please note that, in the case of any delivery charges over and above the standard delivery for your location (IE Removal of Packaging, Pallet Delivery, Express Delivery), Delivery Costs will be refunded only if the item is faulty, or if it differs in any derogatory manner from the advertised goods. Please see our specific Delivery Information and Returns Information pages which form an additional part of these Terms.

Whilst we display goods on our Web Site that are held in stock, if the ordered goods are somehow not available we will advise you of this as soon as reasonably possible. You will be given the option of ordering an alternative product or receiving a full refund.

By submitting your order you are offering to buy the goods and allowing us to use your personal details for the purposes of supplying goods (including passing your details on to couriers and other subcontractors).

We are not obliged to supply the goods to you until we have confirmed that we have accepted your order and received payment in full. Your order will be deemed to have been accepted when we despatch to you the goods which form the subject matter of your order. We may at our total discretion reject your order. Unless otherwise stated, the use of promotional codes is limited to one per order.

All drawings, specifications, sizes, photographs, descriptive matter and advertising published by us or contained on our Web Site are issued only for giving an approximate idea of the goods described in them and colours shown are intended as a guide only. They do not form part of the Terms.

Delivery

We aim to deliver goods to you as described within our Delivery Information page. If we are unable to deliver the goods within a reasonable time, due to reasons beyond our control, we will inform you, then if you wish, you may cancel the contract and we will refund any money paid by you.

If we accidentally damage goods in the course of delivery, our liability for that damage is limited to the repair, replacement or refund of the goods delivered or the value thereof. We do not pay compensation beyond these limits.

Time of delivery is not covered in these Terms & Conditions. We will not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by you through any reasonable delay due to unforeseen circumstances outside of our control.
