Access to our site is free of charge and is provided “as is” and on an “as available” basis. We may alter, suspend or discontinue our site (or any part of it) at any time and without notice. We will not be liable to you in any way if our site (or any part of it) is unavailable at any time and for any period.

Consumers may only purchase Products through Our Site if they are at least 18 years of age.
Business Customers
These Terms and Conditions do not apply to customers purchasing products in the course of business. If you are a business customer, please consult us.
International Customers
If products are being ordered from outside the United Kingdom, import duties and taxes may be incurred once your products reach their destination. We are not responsible for such charges and we undertake to make no calculations or estimates in this regard. If you are buying internationally, you are advised to contact your local customs authorities for further details on costs and procedures. As the buyer of the products, you will also be the importer of record and as such should ensure that your purchase is in full compliance with the laws of the country into which the products are being imported. Please be aware that products may be inspected on arrival at port for customs purposes and we cannot guarantee that the packaging of your products will be free of signs of tampering. Please also be aware that United Kingdom consumer protection laws may not apply.
Products, Pricing & Availability
We make all efforts to ensure that all descriptions and graphical representations of products available from us correspond to the actual products. Please note, however, the following:
Please note that sub-Clause 1 under section “Products, Pricing and Availability” does not exclude our responsibility for mistakes due to negligence on our part and refers only to minor variations of the correct products, not to different products altogether. Please refer to section “Faulty, Damaged or Incorrect Products” if you receive incorrect products (i.e. Products that are not as described).
We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all prices shown on our site are correct at the time of going online. We reserve the right to change prices and to add, alter, or remove special offers from time to time and as necessary. Changes in price will not affect any order that you have already placed (please note sub-Clause 8 under section “Products, Pricing and Availability” regarding VAT).
All prices are checked by us when we process your order. In the unlikely event that we have shown incorrect pricing information, please note the following:
We will contact you before proceeding with your order to inform you of the mistake and to ask you how you wish to proceed. We will give you the option to purchase the products at the correct price or to cancel your Order (or the affected part thereof). We will not proceed with processing your order until you respond. If we do not receive a response from you within 7 days, we will treat your order as cancelled and notify you of the same in writing.In the event that the price of products you have ordered changes between your order being placed and us processing that order and taking payment, you will be charged the price shown on our Site at the time of placing your order. All prices on our site include VAT. If the VAT rate changes between your order being placed and us taking payment, the amount of VAT payable will be automatically adjusted when taking payment.
Delivery charges are not included in the price of products on our site. For more information on delivery charges, please refer to the cost on the site.
Orders – How Contracts Are Formed
Our site will guide you through the ordering process. Before submitting your order to us you will be given the opportunity to review your order and amend it. Please ensure that you have checked your order carefully before submitting it.
No part of our site constitutes a contractual offer capable of acceptance. Your Order constitutes a contractual offer that we may, at our sole discretion, accept. Our acknowledgement of receipt of your order does not mean that we have accepted it. Our acceptance is indicated by us sending you a Dispatch Confirmation by email. Only once we have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation will there be a legally binding contract between us and you.
Dispatch Confirmations shall contain the following information:
If we, for any reason, do not accept or cannot fulfil your order, no payment shall be taken under normal circumstances. If we have taken payment any such sums will be refunded to you as soon as possible.
Payment
Payment for products and related delivery charges must always be made in advance and you will be prompted to pay during the order process. We accept various methods of payment as indicated on our site.
Delivery, Risk & Ownership
All products purchased through Our Site will normally be delivered by Royal Mail within 14 calendar days of the date of Our Dispatch Confirmation unless otherwise agreed (subject to delays caused by events outside of Our control, for which see section “Events Outside of Our Control”
In the unlikely event that we fail to deliver the products within 30 calendar days of our dispatch confirmation (unless otherwise agreed as under sub-Clause 1 in section “Delivery, Risk and Ownership“), if any of the following apply you may cancel your order immediately:
If you do not wish to cancel under sub-Clause 2 in section “Delivery, Risk and Ownership” or if none of the specified circumstances apply, you may specify a new (reasonable) delivery date. If we fail to meet the new deadline, you may then cancel your order.
You may cancel all or part of your order under sub-Clauses 2 or 3 in section “Delivery, Risk and Ownership“. Any sums that you have already paid for cancelled products and their delivery will be refunded to you. Please note that if any cancelled products are delivered to you, you must return them to us or arrange with us for their collection. In either case, we will bear the cost of returning the cancelled products.
Delivery shall be deemed complete once we have delivered the products to the address (including, where relevant, any alternative address) provided in your order.
The risk in the products shall remain with us until they come into the physical possession of you or a person identified by you to take possession of the products. Ownership of the products passes to you once we have received payment in full of all sums due (including any applicable delivery charges).
Faulty, Damaged or Incorrect Products
By law, we must provide products that are of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, as described at the time of purchase, in accordance with any pre-contract information we have provided, and that match any samples or models that you have seen or examined (unless we have made you aware of any differences). If any products you have purchased do not comply and, for example, have faults or are damaged when you receive them, or if you receive incorrect products, please contact us as soon as reasonably possible, and in any event within 3 days, to inform us of the fault, damage or error, and to arrange for a refund or replacement.
Beginning on the day that you receive the products (and ownership of them) you have a 30 Calendar Day right to reject the products and to receive a full refund if they do not conform as stated above. Alternatively, you may request a replacement. We will bear any associated costs and will replace them within a reasonable time. In certain circumstances, where a replacement is impossible, we may instead offer you a full refund. If you request a replacement during the 30 Calendar Day rejection period, that period will be suspended while we replace them and will resume on the day that you receive the replacement. If less than 7 Calendar Days remain out of the original period, it will be extended to 7 Calendar Days. If, after a replacement, the products still do not conform (or if we cannot do so as previously described, or have failed to act within a reasonable time or without significant inconvenience to you), you may have the right either to keep the products at a reduced price, or to reject them in exchange for a refund.
Please also note that you may not return products to us under this section (Faulty, Damaged or Incorrect Products) merely because you have changed your mind. If you are a consumer in the European Union you have a legal right to a 14 calendar day cooling off period within which you can return Products for this reason.
