1. 4.How the contract is formed between you and us
1. 4.1After 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 a Product.  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 Product has been dispatched (the Dispatch Confirmation).  The contract between us (the Contract) will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation.  
2. 4.2The Contract will relate only to those Products whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation.  We will not be obliged to supply any other Products which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such Products has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.
3. 4.3In the event that prior to the Dispatch Confirmation, we find that we are unable to satisfy your order for any reason (such as falling levels of stock) we will attempt to make contact with you in order to offer you any available alternatives.
2. 5.Our status
1. 5.1We may provide links on our site to the websites of other companies, whether affiliated with us or not.  We cannot give any undertaking, that products you purchase 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.  
3. 6.Consumer rights
1. 6.1If you are contracting as a consumer, you may cancel a Contract at any time within seven working days, beginning on the day after you received the Products.  In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products in accordance with our refunds policy (set out in clause 10 below).  
2. 6.2To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. You must also return the Product(s) to us immediately, in the same condition in which you received them, 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.
3. 6.3You will not have any right to cancel a Contract for the supply of any of the following Products:

(a)goods that you have ordered that are perishable or where the goods are affected by matters of hygiene (e.g. earrings, underwear, etc); or 

(b)newspapers or magazines; or 

(c)audio or video recordings or computer software that you have taken out of the sealed packaging in which it was or they were delivered to you. 

1. 6.4Details 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.
1. 7.Availability and delivery

Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within a reasonable time of the date of the Dispatch Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.  

1. 8.Risk and title
1. 8.1The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery.

1. 9.1The price of any Products will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error.  
2. 9.2These prices include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due as set out in our Delivery Guide [INSERT AS LINK TO SITE'S DELIVERY GUIDE].  
3. 9.3Prices 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.
4. 9.4Our 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. 
5. 9.5We 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 unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.
6. 9.6Payment for all Products may be made by credit or debit card through the site or via a telephone order.  We accept payment with [MasterCard, Visa and American Express].  Your credit or debit card will be charged immediately.  In the event of payment by cheque or postal order, your order will be prepared immediately and held at our warehouse pending clearance of the payment.

Products returned by you because of a defect will be refunded in full, including a refund of the delivery charges for sending the item to you and the cost incurred by you in returning the item to us.
