YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT
- 1 You can always end your contract with us. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:

- 2 Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at 11.2.1 to 11.2.5 below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
- 2.1 we have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to;
- 2.2 we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
- 2.3 there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;

- 5 Ending the contract where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind. Even if we are not at fault and you do not have a right to change your mind, you can still end the contract before it is completed.

- 5 Deductions from refunds if you are exercising your right to change your mind. If you are exercising your right to change your mind:
- 5.1 We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
- 5.2 The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
- 6 When your refund will be made. We aim to process returns within 7 to 10 days of receipt of the Goods. We may charge a restock fee for returns which will be deducted from the refunded price.

- 3 We may withdraw the product. We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing the product.

- 1 How to tell us about a problem. If you have any questions or complaints about the product, please contact us using the details provided in clause 1.2.

PRICE AND PAYMENT
- 1 Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the website or as provided by us in writing. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 15.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
- 2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
- 3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
- 4 When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with the credit and debit cards listed on our website, or via payment link as provided by us. You must pay for the products before we dispatch them.
- 5 Credit terms. Where we have agreed credit terms for you, you agree to pay us no later than the last day of the agreed terms, usually 30 days from the date of the invoice or as agreed with you in advance and in writing.
- 6 We charge interest on late payments. If we're unable to collect any payment you owe us we charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 8% a year above the Bank of England base rate from time to time. This interest accrues on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount. You pay us the interest together with any overdue amount.
-

Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

- 3 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.
- 4 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts.
