GENERAL INFORMATION

Please note that every effort has been made to ensure that the colour reproduction of products shown in our Online Store is as close as possible to the original, but may not be exact. We endeavour to ensure that all listings on the website are correct, mistakes can happen and manufacturers may list things incorrectly on their own websites (that we take the information from), we always try to rectify these mistakes as soon as possible.

All prices quoted in the online store are inclusive of VAT unless otherwise stated. A full VAT receipt will be sent with each order (unless you request otherwise), and this receipt should be kept safe for guarantee purposes.

All special offers and sale items are subject to stock availability, and are subject to change at any time.

SECURITY

Our site utilises a 128-bit SSL, which stands for Secure Sockets Layer. SSLs adjust the standard Hypertext Protocol (http) by encrypting all data transfers. This means that when you enter your personal information on the checkout pages, all the data is encrypted. As well as this, there is Actinic (the catalogue software we use) encryption, whereby data cannot be decrypted until it reaches our computer system.

Browsers will display the golden padlock to indicate that you are in a secure area. You can click on this golden padlock to retrieve information about the certificate. It also contains all details regarding the Certification Authority responsible for the issuance of the certificate.

ORDERING

On receipt of your order (on a working day, during opening hours), we will e-mail or telephone you personally to confirm your order and advise you of a delivery date. So please ensure the telephone number and email address you give us are ones we can reach you on during the daytime.

Your card will not be charged until your goods are ready to be shipped. Howevver, if you have ordered something that we do not have in stock and need to order ourselves, we may take full payment or part payment as soon as have have ordered the item for you. You will be contacted beforehand if this is the case.

We aim to despatch order on the same day that the order us received (up to 2pm for items over 1kg, and up to 4pm for smaller items such as CDs). Items that are ordered after 4pm will be processed the next working day. Orders are processed on 'working days' only, so if for example you order from us at 5pm on a Friday, your order will not be processed until the Monday, and your order should be with you on the Tuesday. Whilst we endeavour to despatch all items the same working day (and we normally do), there are occasions when we may be unable to do this. Also, circumstances such as courier problems or postal strikes may mean we could not get your order to you the following day. If there is such a problem, we will of course let you know as soon as possible. This is why our delivery services is listed as 'usually' next working day. If your order is urgent, and you definitely need it the next working day, please call us to let us know during opening hours and we will be able to give you a definitive answer then.
