In this case, and in accordance with our returns policy (set out in clauses 9 & 10 below) you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products, but you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Products to us.

    4.2 To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. You must also return the Products to us as soon as practicable, and at your own cost and risk. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the Products while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation.

    4.3 You will not have any right to cancel a Contract for the supply of any Products:

    a) that have been custom made to suit your specifications; or

    b) which by reason of their nature cannot be returned.

    4.4 Details of this statutory right, and an explanation of how to exercise it, are provided in the Dispatch Confirmation. This provision does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.

    5. AVAILABILITY AND DELIVERY

    5.1 Your order will be fulfilled by the approximate delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then as soon as reasonably possible, unless there are exceptional circumstances. We shall not be liable for any delay in delivering the Products, however caused.

    5.2 The Products will be delivered to the address you provided during the order process.

    5.3 If you chose a next day delivery this will be delivered any time between 8am and 8pm and it is your responsibility to be available to receive the delivery.

Where a Product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you.

    7.6 Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card or by using online payment provider PayPal. We accept payment with most major credit and debit cards, but excluding American Express. Payment will be debited and cleared from your account before the dispatch of the Products you have ordered.

    7.7 By placing an order, you consent to payment being charged to your debit/credit card account via our online payment gateway.

    7.8 When you pay for your order by any credit or debit card, we carry out certain checks which include obtaining authorisation from your card issuer to ensure you have adequate funds and for security reasons. This may involve validating your name, address and other personal information supplied by you during the order process against appropriate third party databases including the card issuer, registered credit reference agencies and fraud prevention agencies.

    7.9 By accepting these terms and conditions you:

    7.9.1 Undertake that all the details you provide to us for the purpose of purchasing the Products are correct and that the payment card you are using is your own and that there are sufficient funds to cover the cost of the Products ordered; and

    7.9.2 Authorise us to transmit the payment and delivery information provided by you during the order process (including any updated information) for the purpose of obtaining authorisation from your card issuer to ensure you have adequate funds, to authenticate your identity, to validate your payment card and for other security reasons, such as fraud prevention.

    7.11 We will take all reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order and payment secure, but in the absence of negligence on our part, we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorised access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from our site.

    8. QUALITY CONTROL

    8.1 We undertake a quality control check which consists of a visual examination of the Product before dispatch.

    8.2 In the unlikely event that you or your servant or agent discover a defect upon taking delivery of a Product, then notwithstanding your rights under clause 9.1b below, we require that you notify us as soon as possible, and in any event no later than 7 days from the date of delivery (or such longer period as we may, in our absolute discretion, otherwise agree to), and before any installation work is undertaken.
