  1. Service Availability
    1. This site is only intended for use by people resident in the United Kingdom. We do not accept orders from individuals outside the United Kingdom.
    2. This site requires you to enter your post code in order to validate if delivery is possible to your area. Should you change this during the checkout process, we may not be able to deliver goods to you and as a result your order will not be processed and no contract will be formed. We accept no responsibility for loss or damages in this instance.
  2. Your Status
    1. By placing an order through this site, you warrant that:
      1. you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts
      2. you are at least 18 years old;
      3. you are resident in the United Kingdom; and
      4. you are accessing our site from the United Kingdom.
    2. How the Contract is Formed Between You and Us
      1. After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. At this point payment will be taken for the goods and we will contact you to confirm a delivery date. 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 (“Contract”) will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation.
      2. The 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. In the event of any order being rejected by us, you will receive a refund of the price paid for the Products in accordance with our refunds policy (set out in clause 9 below)
    3. Consumer Rights

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. Details 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.

      4. Our 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.
