8. YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT

8.1

You can always end your contract with us. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:

8.1.1

If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or a service re-performed or to get some or all of your money back), see clause ‎11;

8.1.2

If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause ‎8.2;

8.1.3

If you have just changed your mind about the product, see clause ‎8.3. You may be able to get a refund if you are within the cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions and you will have to pay the costs of return of any goods;

8.1.4

If you have just changed your mind about the product after the expiry of the cooling off period under clause ‎8.3, we offer an additional goodwill returns policy of up to 30 days – see clause ‎8.4; or

8.1.5

In all other cases (if we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind), see clause ‎8.6.

8.2

Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at ‎8.2.1 to ‎8.2.4 below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:

8.2.1

we have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to (see clause ‎6.1);

8.2.2

we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;

8.2.3

there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control; or

8.2.4

you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.

8.3

Exercising your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013). For most products bought online you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms.

8.4

Our goodwill returns policy. Please note, these terms reflect the additional goodwill refunds policy offered by us to our UK customers, which is more generous than your legal rights under the Consumer Contracts Regulations in the ways set out below. This goodwill guarantee does not affect your legal rights in relation to faulty or misdescribed products (see clause ‎11.2):

Right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013
How our goodwill returns policy is more generous
14 day period to change your mind
30 day period to change your mind (provided that we receive the products you are returning within those 30 days.
Refund only
Refund or exchange (exchanges will not be further exchanged or refunded)
[text]
[text]
8.5

How long do I have to change my mind? You have 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery to change your mind about the goods.

8.6

Ending the contract where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind. Even if we are not at fault and you do not have a right to change your mind (see clause ‎8.1), you can still end the contract before it is completed, but you may have to pay us compensation. A contract for goods is completed when the product is delivered. If you want to end a contract before it is completed where we are not at fault and you have not changed your mind, just contact us to let us know. The contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for products not provided but we may deduct from that refund reasonable costs that we have incurred as a result of your ending the contract.

Please call our Consumer Care team on 0800 096 3666, or see here for the returns form. If you are exercising your right to change your mind you must send off the goods within 14 days of telling us you wish to end the contract.

9.3

When we will pay the costs of return. We will pay the costs of return:

9.3.1

if the products are faulty or misdescribed; or

if you are ending the contract because we have told you of an upcoming change to the product or these terms, an error in pricing or description, a delay in delivery due to events outside our control or because you have a legal right to do so as a result of something we have done wrong. In all other circumstances (including where you are exercising your right to change your mind) you must pay the costs of return.

9.4

How we will refund you. We will refund you the price you paid for the products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.

9.5

Deductions from refunds if you are exercising your right to change your mind. If you are exercising your right to change your mind:

9.5.1

We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.

9.5.2

The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.

9.5.3

We will not provide a refund for products that are out of date.

9.6

When your refund will be made. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind then:

9.6.1

your refund will typically take 5 working days to process, dependent on your bank/card issuer, and in any event your refund will always be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the product back to us. For information about how to return a product to us, see clause 9.2.

9.6.2

In all other cases, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind.

12. PRICE AND PAYMENT

12.1

Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause ‎12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.

12.2

We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

12.3

What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

12.4

When you must pay and how you must pay. You must pay for the products before we dispatch them. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch the products to you.

We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

13.2

We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.

13.3
