Making A Purchase
Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our
store, and add any items that you wish to buy into the
shopping cart. After you have finished your selection,
click on 'Checkout' and you will be asked for a few
details that we need to be able to complete the order.
We accept most card payments. If you are shopping from
outside the UK, place your order and your card company
will convert the transaction to your own currency.
We accept Visa, Visa Debit, MasterCard, MasterCard

correct it in the shopping cart, contact us and we will
correct the mistake.
When confirmation of your order is received, this is to
indicate that we have received your order. It does not
indicate that a contract exists between us. We will
indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract
between us, when we send you an invoice. We have
included this term to protect us in the case that a
mistake has been made in pricing, we have inadvertently
under-priced goods, or we are no longer able to supply a
particular product for some reason. In the case of a
change of price, we will always contact you first to
ensure that the price is acceptable.

and to that end we only use a tracked delivery system.
We use Fastway couriers for the UK / Ireland , and
Aramex Express for the world.

purchased but please be aware that orders may qualify
for free delivery based on order value.

We deliver your order right away. We will normally send
your order to you in 1 - 2 business days. International
orders are generally received in 5 - 10 days.
You must inform us within two working days if the goods
are lost or damaged in transit so that we can make a
prompt claim against the delivery company and correct
the problem. Please quote your order number in all
correspondence.

delivery company is sufficient evidence to establish
that goods have been received.

you. Your refund will be paid within 30 days. You are
responsible for the cost and risk of loss or damage when
returning the goods, so you should take out enough
postal insurance to cover their value. This cancellation
policy does not affect your rights when we are at fault
- for example, if goods are faulty or mis-described.
These terms apply to your order. We may change our terms
and conditions at any time, so please do not assume that
the same terms will apply in the future.
None of these terms affect your legal rights and these
are not diminished in any way. If any term is held to be
invalid under any applicable statute or rule of law,
that term is automatically omitted from the terms to
minimum extent necessary to comply with the law and
without affecting the validity or enforceability of the
remainder.
