5. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED
The information set out in the Terms and the detail contained on this website do not constitute an offer for sale but rather an invitation to treat. No contract in respect of any items shall exist between us and you until your order has been expressly accepted by us (whether or not funds have been deducted from your account). If we do not accept your offer and funds have already been deducted, these will be fully refunded. To place an order, you will be required to follow the online shopping process and press the "Order with Payment Commitment" button to submit the order. After this, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order (the "Order Confirmation"). Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes your offer to us to buy one or more items from us. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an email that confirms that the item has been dispatched (the "Delivery Confirmation"). The contract for the purchase of an item between us (the "Contract") will only be formed when we send you the Delivery Confirmation. The Contract will relate only to those items whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Delivery Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other items which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such items has been confirmed in a separate Delivery Confirmation.
6. AVAILABILITY OF ITEMS
All orders for items are subject to availability and in this regard, in the event of supply difficulties or because items are no longer in stock, we reserve the right to give you information about substitute items of an equal or higher quality and value which you can order. If you do not wish to order the substitute items we will reimburse any money that you may have paid.
7. REFUSAL OF ORDER
We reserve the right to withdraw any items from this website at any time and/or remove or edit any materials or content on this website. Whilst we will use our reasonable endeavours to process all the orders submitted to us, there may be exceptional circumstances which mean that we may need to refuse to process or accept an order after we have received it or sent you an Order Confirmation, which we reserve the right to do at any time. We will not be liable to you or any other third party by reason of our withdrawing any item from this website, removing or editing any materials or content on this website or for refusing to process or accept an order after we have received it or sent you an Order Confirmation.
8. DELIVERY
Subject to availability (see Clause 7 above), and unless there are any exceptional circumstances, we will endeavour to fulfil your order for item(s) listed in the Delivery Confirmation by the delivery date set out in the Delivery Confirmation or, if no estimated delivery date is specified, then within a maximum of 30 days of the date of the Order Confirmation. If we fail to deliver the items within 30 days of the date of the Order Confirmation, you may cancel the Contract and we will reimburse you the price paid for the items and any delivery costs paid.
If our supply of the items 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 items you have paid for but not received.
By accepting this delivery service you are accepting our delivery personnel or a representative of us into your home, and so as to avoid or minimise the risk of damage to your home or any of your possessions, we ask that you remove your possessions or anything that may be damaged and allow our delivery personnel as clear access to your home as possible. Unless caused by our negligence, we will not be held responsible for anything that is not removed to safety where reasonable steps could have been taken to avoid or minimise the risk.
Please ensure that items ordered can fit into your home, the areas for which it is intended or location for delivery. If the items do not fit, you can still accept delivery or you can return the items, but any return will be at your own cost (see further our Returns Policy). For the purpose of these Terms "delivery" or "delivered" shall be deemed to have occurred upon you or a third party nominated by you acquiring physical possession of the items, which will be evidenced by the signing for receipt of the items at the agreed delivery address.
9. UNABLE TO DELIVER
If we are unable to deliver, we will try to find a safe secure place to leave your parcel. If we cannot find a safe and secure place. We will leave a note explaining where your parcel is and how you can rearrange delivery. If you are not at the delivery location at the time agreed, please contact us again to rearrange delivery for another mutually convenient day.
If after 30 days from the date your order is available for delivery, the order could not be delivered for reasons not attributable to us, we shall assume that you wish to cancel the Contract and it will be terminated. As a result of the termination of the Contract, we will return to you all payments received from you, including delivery charge (except for any additional costs resulting from your choice of any delivery method other than the ordinary delivery method that we offer) without any undue delay, and at any rate, within 14 days of the date on which this Contract has been terminated.
10. RISK AND TITLE

Ownership of the items will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the items, including delivery charges, or upon delivery (as defined in Clause 9), whichever is the later.
11. PRICE AND PAYMENT
The price of any items will be as stipulated on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error. While we try to ensure that all prices on the website are accurate, errors may occur. If we discover an error in the price of items you have ordered, we will inform you as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming the order at the correct price or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact you, the order will be treated as cancelled and if you have already paid for the items you will receive a full refund. We are under no obligation to provide the items to you at the incorrect (lower) price (even after we have sent you a Delivery Confirmation) if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as incorrect price.
The prices on the website include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due as set out in our Shopping Guide. Prices are liable to change at any time, but (other than as set out above) changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you an Order Confirmation. Once you have finished shopping all the items you wish to purchase are added to your basket and your next step will be to go to the checkout process and make payment. To do this, you must follow the steps of the purchase process, completing or verifying the information requested in each step. Furthermore, throughout the purchase process, before payment, you can modify the details of your order. You are provided with a detailed description of the purchase process in the Shopping Guide. Also, if you are a registered user, a record of all the orders placed by you is available in "My Account" area.
To minimise the possibility of unauthorised access, your credit card details will be encrypted. Once we receive your order, we will request a preauthorization on your card to ensure there are sufficient funds available to complete the transaction. No charge will be made to your credit card until your order has been dispatched for delivery. However, if your form of payment is Paypal or any of the gift cards or credit voucher cards listed in the paragraph above, the charge will be made the moment we confirm the order. By clicking "Order with Payment Commitment" you are confirming that the credit card is yours or that you are the legitimate holder of the gift card or the credit voucher card. Credit cards are subject to validation checks and authorisation by your card issuer but if your card issuer fails to authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery and may not be able to form a Contract with you.

13. RETURNS POLICY
You may cancel your order for any reason up to 30 days from the date of the Delivery Confirmation, by notifying us of your decision to cancel using the following contact details through the online contact form on our website.

When you receive the items, you may handle them to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning. Acceptable handling of the items is that which would reasonably be allowed in a shop. Items should not have been damaged, soiled, washed, altered or worn (other than to try the item on) and any labels or tags must be intact. If your handling goes beyond what is acceptable and the items are damaged or diminished in value, we may deduct from the amount we reimburse to you, or you may be liable to us for, an amount equal to the diminished value of the items.
Please return the items using or including all their original packaging, instructions, and other documents, if any, accompanying the items.
You will be responsible for the return costs. We suggest you use an established courier in such instances, and select a recorded or guaranteed delivery service where available. Please bear in mind that if you wish to return the items to us freight collect/cash on delivery, we may charge you any costs incurred in such return.
After examining the items, we will inform you of whether you have the right to reimbursement of the amounts paid. Delivery costs will be reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised within the statutory period and all the items which the relevant parcel consisted of are returned. The refund will be paid as soon as possible and, in all cases, within 14 days from the date on which you notified us of your intention to cancel. Notwithstanding this, we may withhold the reimbursement until we have received the items back, or until you have supplied sufficient evidence of having sent back the items, whichever is the earlier. The refund will always be paid using the same payment means you used to pay for your purchase.
You are responsible for the cost and risk of returning the items to us, as indicated above.
RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
You have the right to withdraw from your order within 14 days, without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is counted from the day of the delivery of the last item(s) in your order. The easiest way to exercise your right of withdrawal is to contact us by using the contact form on our website, and returning the items to us.
However, to meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to let us know about your decision to withdraw from your order before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
We will refund all payments received from you, including the costs of our standard delivery option to the original delivery address, without undue delay and in any event no later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw. We will use the same means of payment that you used to pay for your order and this will not cause you any extra fees.
We may withhold the refund until we have received the items back.
You must send back the items or hand them over to us without undue delay, and in any event no later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw.
You are only liable for any diminished value of the items resulting from their handling, other than that which is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the items.
