Ordering and Availability

To order any Product, you must be at least 18 years of age. By doing so, you confirm to us that you meet this requirement. If you are under the age of 18, you confirm that you have received permission from your parent or guardian before purchasing a Product from the Site.

Products may be ordered by clicking on the items you wish to purchase and then following the prompts that will appear on-screen. You may check and correct any input errors in your order up until the point at which you submit your order to us by clicking the "Pay Now" button on the checkout page.

After placing an order, you will receive an acknowledgment from us that we have received your order and provide you with an order reference number. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy the Product(s) ordered. All orders are subject to acceptance by us. We are not obliged to accept your order and may, at our discretion, decline to accept any order. You do, however, acknowledge that by clicking on the "Pay Now" button, you enter into an obligation to pay for the Product(s). Where we accept your order, we will confirm such acceptance by sending you a confirmation that your order has been despatched (Order Confirmation). The contract between you and us in relation to the Product(s) ordered (Contract) will only be formed when we send you the Order Confirmation. After entering into the Contract, we will be under a legal duty to supply you with goods that are in conformity with the Contract.

The Contract will relate only to the Product(s) which have been confirmed in the Order Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Product(s) which may have been part of your order until such Product(s) have been confirmed in a separate Order Confirmation.

Whilst we use reasonable endeavours to carry sufficient stock, if your order includes any Product(s) not available from stock, we will contact you to ask if you would like us to substitute appropriate similar product(s) (if any) which we may suggest or whether you would prefer to wait for the Product(s) you ordered to come into stock or to cancel your order.

From time to time, certain new Products may, where indicated on the relevant Product page, be pre-ordered (i.e. you may place an order before the relevant Product has been generally released and become available on the Site). Where this is the case, the availability date will be shown on the relevant Product page.

Pre-Orders

Pre-orders are orders for Products that we do not currently have in-stock (Pre-order). In order to place a Pre-order, you will need to provide certain information, including but not limited to your name, address and billing information. It is your responsibility to ensure this information is accurate and up to date. If we do not have accurate information, we will not be able to keep you informed.

Pre-order payments do not guarantee availability of the Product but represent your offer (Offer) to buy the Product when it is either in-stock or generally released for sale. We reserve the right not to accept your Offer and your Offer is only accepted once the pre-ordered Product is despatched.

When you place a Pre-order you will need to pay the full Product cost and any associated shipping costs related to the order.

Pre-orders shall be shipped as soon as the Product is in-stock or generally released for sale. The dispatch dates included on any product pages of our Site are estimate re-stock dates only and may be subject to change.

You may also cancel your order within 14 days of your receipt of the Product in accordance with the Consumer Cancellation Rights section of this policy.

Price and Payment

The price of Products is as quoted on the Site from time to time.

Delivery costs will be automatically added (at the cost shown) to the total amount due when you view the items in your shopping basket.


The Site contains a number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on the Site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our order-checking procedures so that, where a Product's correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge you the lower amount. If a Product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on the Site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before despatching the Product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.

Payment for all orders must be made by credit or debit card on the checkout page. We accept payment by most major credit and debit card. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we despatch your order.

You should be aware that online payment transactions are subject to validation checks by your card issuer and we are not responsible if your card issuer declines to authorise payment for any reason. Please note, it is possible that your card issuer may charge you an online handling fee or processing fee. We are not responsible for this.

From time to time we may run promotions where we issue discount codes. These can be used in part-payment of the price of Product(s) ordered online, subject to the terms under which they were issued (as indicated in our relevant promotion from which you got the code). Discount codes can only be used once, and only during the period of validity stated and only in respect of the relevant Product(s) stated. Discount codes cannot be redeemed for cash.
