These products may be shipped direct to you from those third party retailers (suppliers) and it is important that you understand that the contract for the purchase of those products is with them. This means that the third party retailer (Supplier) is responsible for selling the products to you. Our services may also allow you to purchase certain products directly from us. We will make clear to you when your product is purchased from a third party retailer.

Our site is intended for the use of people resident in the United Kingdom.

Whilst we are happy to consider requests for products and enquiries from outside the United Kingdom, we give no warranty, express, or implied, that the use of this website or the placing of any order through this website from outside the UK complies with any applicable non-UK laws or regulations.

THIRD PARTY SUPPLIERS

When you purchase products using our Website from third party retailers (Suppliers) named on our website, these products are provided to you by us as ‘agents’ on behalf of the third party retailers. These products may be shipped to you from those third party suppliers and it is important that you understand that your contract for the purchase of such products is between you and the relevant third party retailer.

You should carefully read the Supplier Returns instructions and Supplier Contact details for that third party retailer as outlined in the Dispatch confirmation for any queries or issues regarding your order. We will make clear to you when a third party is involved in a transaction and we may disclose your customer information related to that transaction to the third party retailer.

YOUR ORDER

After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. We will confirm acceptance of your order by sending you an e-mail that confirms that Products have been dispatched (Dispatch Confirmation) and your contract will relate only to those Products dispatched. Your credit/card will not be charged until we send you the Dispatch confirmation, except in the case of pre-order or special order items, when you will be required to make payment in advance.

A delivery charge will be added to your order value where appropriate, please see delivery times and charges relating to the product that you wish to purchase.

YOUR RIGHT TO CANCEL

You may cancel your order for any reason up to the point of dispatch. If you do cancel the contract within this time any payments made by you will be refunded in full within 30 days.

RETURNS POLICY

If you are not entirely happy with the products that you have purchased from us you may return them within 14 days of receipt. We will be happy to issue you with a full refund of the price paid including post and packaging, provided that the products are returned complete, in perfect condition, unused, and with the original packaging in tact.

Please note that Bespoke or Made to Order items cannot be returned for refund or exchange.

MAKING RETURNS

If your product has been purchased through us as agents on behalf of a third party Supplier , you will be required to return the item direct to the supplier. Details of the Supplier Return address and Returns information will be sent to you together with your product. Please make sure you use the correct returns address for the product which you have purchased.

Unless you are returning an item which is faulty, you will be required to arrange and pay for the return of the products to the supplier.

When returning products, you are strongly advised to obtain proof of postage. We cannot accept responsibility for RETURNED parcels lost in transit. We will only refund for the costs of postage where the item has been returned because it is faulty.

PRICE AND PAYMENT

The price of products which can be purchased through us will be as quoted on our site, except in cases of obvious error. These prices include VAT and exclude delivery costs which will be added to the total amount due as set out in our Delivery guide.

Payment for all products must be by credit or debit card. We will not charge or debit your card until your order is available for dispatch.

Please note that Bespoke or Made to Order items will require full payment in advance.

Our site contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a Product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.

We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.

DELIVERY

The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery.

Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.

If your product is ordered from a third party supplier , your order will be delivered to you directly from the supplier, your order will usually be fulfilled within the delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.

If your item is a special order item, please check estimated delivery times and allow up to 6 weeks for delivery.

If your item is temporarily out of stock, we will notify you of the delay and dispatch it as soon as it arrives IN STOCK.
