2. Service Availability
Our site is only intended for use by people resident in the United Kingdom ("Serviced
Countries"). We do not accept orders from individuals outside those countries.
Some restrictions are placed on the extent to which we accept orders from specific
countries.

- (b) You are at least 18 years old;

- (d) You are accessing our site from that country.
4. How The Contract Is Formed Between You And Us
4.1 After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that
we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order
has been accepted. 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.
4.2 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.
5. Our Status
5.1 Please note that in some cases, we accept orders as agents on behalf of third
party sellers. The resulting legal contract is between you and that third party
seller, and is subject to the terms and conditions of that third party seller,
which they will advise you of directly. You should carefully review their terms
and conditions applying to the transaction.
5.2 We may also provide links on our site to the websites of other companies,
whether affiliated with us or not. We cannot give any undertaking, that
products you purchase from third party sellers through our site, or from
companies to whose website we have provided a link on our site, will be of
satisfactory quality, and any such warranties are DISCLAIMED by us absolutely.
This DISCLAIMER does not affect your statutory rights against the third party
seller. We will notify you when a third party is involved in a transaction, and
we may disclose your customer information related to that transaction to the
third party seller.
6. Consumer Rights
6.1 If you are contracting as a consumer, you may cancel a Contract at any time
within seven working days, beginning on the day after you received the Products.
In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products in
accordance with our refunds policy (set out in clause 10 below).
6.2 To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. You must also return the
Product(s) to us immediately, in the same condition in which you received them, and
at your own cost and risk. 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.
6.3 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.
7. Availability and Delivery
Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation
or, if no delivery date is specified, then within a reasonable time of the date of the
Dispatch Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
8. Risk and Title
8.1 The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery.
8.2 Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of
all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.
9. Price and Payment
9.1 The price of any Products will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except
in cases of obvious error.
9.2 These prices include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the
total amount due as set out in our
FAQ's.
9.3 Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in
respect of which we have already sent you a Dispatch Confirmation.
9.4 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.
9.5 We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect
(lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation, if the pricing
error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you
as a mis-pricing.
9.6 Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card. We accept payment
with the cards as set out on our site. We will not charge your credit or debit card
until we despatch your order.
10. Our Refunds Policy

cooling-off period (see clause 6.1 above), we will process the refund due to you

notice of your cancellation. In this case, we will refund the price of the Product
in full, including the cost of sending the item to you. However, you will be
responsible for the cost of returning the item to us.

refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time. We will usually process
the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the
day we confirmed to you via e-mail that you were entitled to a refund for the
defective Product. Products returned by you because of a defect will be refunded
