How the Contract is formed between you and us – Ordering
- Our shopping pages will guide you through the steps you need to take to place an order for a Product with us. You will need to provide all required information. Our Order Process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please take the time to read and check your order at each step of the Order Process.
- After you place an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. However, please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Our acceptance of your order will take place as described in point 3 below.
- We will confirm our acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the order has been accepted and the Products have been dispatched (Courier Tracking & Dispatch Email). The Contract between us for the Products will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation.
- We may at our complete discretion choose to reject any order you place. If we choose not to accept an order for a Product (perhaps because that Product is not in stock, no longer available, because we cannot meet your requested delivery date or because of an error in the price on Our Website or for any other reason), we will inform you of this by e-mail and we will not process your order. If you have already paid for the Products, we will refund you the full amount including any delivery costs charged as soon as possible. We as the seller will have no further liability to the buyer in relation to the rejected part of that order.
- All orders are subject to the availability of products. We may revise our range of products or the specification of any product at any time and without notice to you.

Due to our administrative processes, errors (if any) may be discovered up to 30 days after the goods have been delivered to you. We will notify you promptly of any error or omission we discover, and give you the option of returning the goods for a full refund.
- Any attempt by you to vary or cancel any order you have placed with us will have no effect unless accepted in writing by us. Where we accept cancellation by you (in our sole discretion) we may levy a handling charge of up to 15% of the otherwise applicable purchase price.
