Below, we set out how a legally binding contract between you and us is made.
You place an order on the site by placing items into your online cart and clicking the button marked ‘CHECKOUT’. Please read and check your order carefully before submitting it. However, if you need to correct any errors you can do so before submitting it to us.
- When you place your order at the end of the online checkout process we will acknowledge it by email. This acknowledgement does not, however, mean that your order has been accepted.
- We may contact you to say that we do not accept your order. This is typically for the following reasons:
  - the goods are unavailable;
  - we cannot authorise your payment;
  - you are not allowed to buy the goods from us;
  - you have ordered too many goods; or
  - there has been a mistake on the pricing or description of the goods.
- We will only accept your order when we email you to confirm this (Confirmation Email). At this point:
  - a legally binding contract will be in place between you and us; and
  - we will dispatch the goods to you.

Right to cancel this contract

You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason, except where you have chosen to have your goods personalised in which case the right to cancel will not apply.
The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you receive, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you receives the goods or, where you have ordered multiple items in one order that are delivered separately, the cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you receive the last goods.
To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or email). It is sufficient for you to send your cancellation notice to us before the cancellation period has expired (i.e. it does not need to have reached us).
If you cancel the contract, we will refund all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the additional costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the refund for loss in value of any goods supplied if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the refund without undue delay, and not later than:
- 14 days after the day we received back from you any goods supplied; or
- (if earlier) 14 days after the day you provide evidence that you have returned the goods; or
- if there were no goods supplied, 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this contract.
We will make the refund using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise. In any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the refund.
If you have received your goods at the point of cancellation:
- you should send back the goods to us, as soon as possible and in any event no later than 14 days from the day on which you tell us you want to cancel;
- you will need to pay the cost of returning the goods; and
- you are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
