  1. Goods, Pricing and Availability

      1. We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all descriptions and graphical representations of Goods available from Us correspond to the actual Goods. Please note, however, the following:

          1. Images of Goods are for illustrative purposes only. There may be slight variations in colour between the image of a product and the actual product sold due to differences in device displays and lighting conditions;

          2. Images and/or descriptions of packaging are for illustrative purposes only, the actual packaging of Goods may vary

      2. Please note that sub-Clause 6.1 does not exclude Our responsibility for mistakes due to negligence on Our part and refers only to minor variations of the correct Goods, not to different Goods altogether. Please refer to Clause 10 if you receive incorrect Goods (i.e. Goods that are not as described).

      3. Where appropriate, you may be required to select the required size, model, colour, or other parameters of the Goods that you are purchasing.

      4. We cannot guarantee that Goods will always be available. Stock indications are not provided on Our Site.

      5. Minor changes may, from time to time, be made to certain Goods between your Order being placed and Us processing that Order and dispatching the Goods, for example, to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements, or to address particular technical or security issues. Any such changes will not change any main characteristics of the Goods and will not normally affect your use of those Goods. However, if any change is made that would affect your use of the Goods, suitable information will be provided to you.

      6. In some cases, as explained in the description of Goods on Our Site, more significant changes may be made to the Goods. If any such changes are made and will affect your Order, We will notify you in writing before the changes take effect and you will be given an opportunity to cancel your Order (or the affected part thereof), and We will issue a refund for any Goods paid for but not received.

      7. We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that prices shown on Our Site or in Our Quotations are correct. 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 6.10 regarding VAT, however).

      8. All prices are checked by Us before We accept your Order. In the unlikely event that We have shown incorrect pricing information, We will contact you in writing to inform you of the mistake. If the correct price is lower than that shown when you made your Order, We will simply charge you the lower amount and continue processing your Order. If the correct price is higher, We will give you the option to purchase the Goods at the correct price or to cancel your Order (or the affected part of it). We will not proceed with processing your Order in this case until you respond. If We do not receive a response from you within xx days We will treat your Order as cancelled and notify you of this in writing.

      9. In the event that the price of Goods 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.

      10. Prices on Our Site and in our Quartations are shown both exclusive of and inclusive of 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.

      11. Delivery charges are not included in the price of Goods shown on Our Site. Delivery options and related charges will be presented to you as part of the Quartation and order process.

  2. Orders – How Contracts Are Formed

      1. Our Site will guide you through the Quotation and ordering process. Before submitting your Order 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.

      2. When you submit a Request for Quotation via the Website this does not constitute an Agreement with us.

      3. When we receive a Request for Quotation we will endeavour to give you a Quotation by email, by telephone, via the Website or in person (including any delivery costs) within 2 Working Hours. In some cases it may take longer than two hours.

      4. Our Quotation is our offer to you, to supply the Goods or Services at the quoted prices. Our Quotation does not constitute an Agreement with us. Upon receiving our quotation you may decide whether or not to accept the quotation.

      5. If we do not receive a response to our Quotation within 7 days the offer is no longer valid and no Order will exist.

      6. If you accept our Quotation an Order is created. Your Order does not constitute an Agreement with us.

      7. If you create an Order using our website an Order is created. Your Order does not constitute an Agreement with us.

      8. An Agreement only exists once the all of following conditions have been met:

Payment Arrangements have been successful.

We accept and acknowledge the Order, by telephone, email, in person or through our Website.

We have confirmed a shipping date or collection date with you or the Goods have been successfully delivered or collected.

      1. When you place an order in store or by telephone we will advise you verbally whether Payment Arrangements have been successful and whether or not we have a confirmed shipping or collection date for you at that time.

      2. If, during the Quotation or order process, you provide Us with incorrect or incomplete information, please contact Us as soon as possible. If We are unable to process your Order due to incorrect or incomplete information, We will contact you to ask to correct it. If you do not give Us the accurate or complete information within a reasonable time of Our request, We will cancel your Order and treat the Contract as being at an end. If We incur any costs as a result of your incorrect or incomplete information, We may pass those costs on to you.

      3. 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 an Order Confirmation by email. Only once We have sent you an Order Confirmation will there be a legally binding Contract between Us and you.

      4. Order Confirmations shall contain the following information:

          1. Your Order Number;

          2. Confirmation of the Goods ordered including full details of the main characteristics of those Goods;

      5. We may also include a paper copy of the Order Confirmation with your Goods.

      6. In the unlikely event that We do not accept or cannot fulfil your Order for any reason, We will explain why in writing. No payment will be taken under normal circumstances. If We have taken payment any such sums will be refunded to you as soon as possible and in any event within 5 working days.

If We cannot contact you or arrange redelivery or collection, We will treat the Contract as cancelled and recover the Goods. If this happens, you will be refunded the purchase price of the Goods themselves, but not the cost of delivery. We may also bill you for any reasonable additional cost that We incur in recovering the Goods.

      3. [In the unlikely event that We fail to deliver the Goods within 30 calendar days of Our Order Confirmation (or as otherwise agreed or specified as under sub-Clause 10.1), if any of the following apply you may treat the Contract as being at an end immediately:

          1. We have refused to deliver your Goods; or

          2. In light of all relevant circumstances, delivery within that time period was essential; or

          3. You told Us when ordering the Goods that delivery within that time period was essential.]

      4. If you do not wish to cancel under sub-Clause 9.3 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 treat the Contract as being at an end.

      5. You may cancel all or part of your Order under sub-Clauses 9.3 or 9.4 provided that separating the Goods in your Order would not significantly reduce their value. Any sums that you have already paid for cancelled Goods and their delivery will be refunded to you within x working days. Please note that if any cancelled Goods 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 Goods.

      6. Delivery shall be deemed complete once We have delivered the Goods to the address, (including, where relevant, any alternative address) you have provided.
