We are registered in England and Wales under company number 03145929 and with our registered office at Burley House, 12 Clarendon Road, Leeds, LS2 9NF. Our main trading address is Calder House, Savile Road, Castleford, WF10 1BJ. Our VAT number is [ ]. 1.1.1.5 Our site is only intended for use by people resident in the United Kingdom. We currently do not accept orders from individuals outside those countries. 1.1.1.6 By placing an order through our site, you warrant that: You are legally capable of entering into binding contracts; You are at least 18 years old; and You are resident in the United Kingdom 4 HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US 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. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy Goods. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the Goods have been dispatched (the Dispatch Confirmation). The contract between us (Contract) will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation. The Contract will relate only to those Goods whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Goods which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such Goods has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation. If the Goods you have ordered are not available or discontinued, or if we are unable to deliver them to you within 30 days, we shall inform you of this. In this event, no Contract shall have been formed between you and us. 5 THIRD PARTY SELLERS We may provide links on our site to the websites of other companies, whether affiliated with us or not. We cannot give any undertaking, that goods you purchase from third party sellers through our site, or from companies to whose website we have provided a link on our site, will be of satisfactory quality, and any such warranties are DISCLAIMED by us absolutely. This DISCLAIMER does not affect your statutory rights against the third party seller. We will notify 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 seller. To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. You must make the Goods available to us for collection and during this time keep the Goods in the same condition in which you received them. You may not use the Goods. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the Goods 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. You will not have any right to cancel a Contract for the supply of any Goods that were made to your explicit specifications or which have been clearly personalised for your use. If you have entered into an agreement under which fixed sum credit is granted by us (or by another person under an arrangement between that person and us) to fully or partly pay the Contract price (“Related Credit Agreement”), then your notice to cancel the Contract will also cancel the Related Credit Agreement. 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. The Goods will be at your risk from the time of delivery pursuant to clause 9 and if you wrongfully fail to take delivery of the Goods, then risk of the Goods shall pass to you at the time we tendered delivery of the Goods. Ownership of the Goods will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Goods, including any delivery charges. The price of any Goods will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error. These prices include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due as set out in our Delivery Guide .Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you a Dispatch Confirmation. Our site contains a large number of Goods and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Goods listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Goods to you. If a 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 Goods, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection. We are under no obligation to provide the Goods to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing. Payment for all Goods must be by credit or debit card. We accept payment with VisaCard, MasterCard, Maestro, Delta and Switch. Your credit or debit card will be charged at the time the order is made. Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of the date of the Dispatch Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by You and Us, the delivery of the Goods will take place at the address you have specified in the order (if the Goods are to be delivered to another address other than the registered cardholder’s address, proof of address will be required). Provided that we deliver the Goods to the address you have specified in the order (or any other address agreed by us in writing) then the Goods will be deemed to have been delivered and we will not be liable to you for non-delivery of the Goods. We do not have to satisfy ourselves that the person who accepts delivery at the address you have provided is you (or is a person authorised by you to accept delivery of the Goods). Any dates and times quoted for delivery of the Goods are approximate only. The Goods may be delivered to you in advance of any quoted date upon giving you reasonable written notice. Goods delivered by us or by a third party contracted to undertake delivery on our behalf are delivered only to the inside of your doorstep. If you reqest that Goods are taken anywhere else then we or any third party contractor shall not be liable for any damage to fixtures, fittings or the structure of your accommodation (eg plasterwork, brickwork) that may occur. Such an action is undertaken solely on your individual responsibility. 10 OUR REFUNDS POLICY If you are asking for a refund: because you have cancelled the Contract between us within the seven-day cooling-off period (see Clause 6.1 above), we will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day you have given notice of your cancellation and collect the Goods from your premises as soon as practicable.
