Returned Goods

The vendor reserves the right to charge a restocking fee that ranges from 25% to 100%, subject to damages to goods or if the products have been altered for the design purposes of the purchaser. This fee is incurred because of the diminished resale value of the product.

The purchaser has the right to cancel the order and return any goods ordered via this website within 7 days. The Vendor retains the right to charge fees for the cost of carriage and a restocking fee if necessary, and the vendor will refund the purchase cost upon receipt of the goods.

The purchaser shall unless otherwise stated be responsible for the cost of return of all goods to the vendor and the returned goods shall be at the risk of the purchaser until actual receipt of the goods by the vendor. The onus of proof of safe delivery shall rest with the purchaser.

All items claimed to be faulty or damaged dispatched for return to the vendor more than 14 days from the date of delivery and found to contain no fault will not be subject to a refund and may be returned to the purchaser. In the event it becomes necessary to recover goods that are not faulty the costs of recovery shall be the responsibility of the purchaser.
The vendor shall give a guarantee to refund to the purchaser full credit for any goods returned in stock condition provided they are dispatched for return within 7 working days of delivery. This does not affect the statutory rights of the consumer or purchaser under applicable consumer protection legislation, which shall normally be laws or regulations in the Country of origin, which for this web site shall be those of England, or where superseded by those of the European Union.

No credit shall be allowed for goods until they have been received complete.

A full credit including carriage costs and restocking fee (where necessary) shall be given by the vendor to the purchaser in the event that goods are faulty or damaged at the time of delivery and notice of fault or damage is given by the purchaser to the vendor within 7 days of delivery.

A Full Credit will only be given on items dispatched for return within 7 Days from delivery, where there are faults if such faults are not governed separately by a valid manufacturer’s warranty, or under any other valid product warranty. The vendor will notify the purchaser of the existence of such warranties when contact is made with customer services.

Refused Shipments: Shipments returned marked refused will not result in refund and refusal of a shipment does not relieve the purchaser’s liability for paying any carriage charges incurred in the return of the goods to the vendor.

Consequential Loss

The extent of the vendor liability to the purchaser for any default or breach whatsoever and howsoever arising shall in no case exceed the invoice value of the goods. The vendor shall in no circumstances whatsoever be liable to the purchaser in respect of any loss or damage, whether suffered by the purchaser, or by any customer of the purchaser whether direct or indirect, consequential or howsoever arising; except from a written agreement between the Vendor and the purchaser at the point of transaction.

Law

If any part of these terms and conditions shall be found to be unlawful it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the conditions provided the contract is capable of continuing without such terms and conditions.

These terms shall be deemed to have been made in England and shall in all respects be governed by English Law except where the statutory rights of consumers within the European Union are otherwise protected within the law of the state or country of delivery.

In respect of consumer statutory rights within the European Union, these are unaffected by these terms and conditions.
