Payment terms
We accept payment by most major credit and debit cards and through Barclays as stated on our web-site from time to time. We accept no liability if a delivery is delayed because you did not give us the correct payment details. This does not affect any other rights we may have.
Risk and ownership
Risk of damage to or loss of the goods passes to you at the time of delivery to you, or if you fail to take delivery at the agreed time, the time when we tried to deliver. You will only own the goods once they have been successfully delivered and when we have received cleared payment in full.
Acknowledgement and acceptance of your order
You will need to provide us with your e-mail address and we will notify you by e-mail as soon as possible to confirm receipt of your order and e-mail you again to confirm details. An acceptance of your order will take place on despatch of the good(s) ordered.

Delivery charges
Delivery charges vary according to the type of goods ordered and cannot be refunded, unless we accept that damage to the goods in transit to you was due to our negligence.
Delivery
We will deliver the goods to the address you specify for delivery in your order. It is important that this address is accurate. Please be precise about where you would like the goods left if you are out when we deliver. We cannot accept any liability for any loss or damage to the goods once they have been delivered in accordance with your delivery instructions. We will aim to deliver the goods by the date quoted for delivery but delivery times are not guaranteed.
