Contract

The placing of an order on our Sites does not constitute a contract. The contract between you and us will only be formed on confirmation of your order. We may notify you that we do not accept your order, or you can cancel your order in accordance with the instructions set out in the "Cancellation and Refund" section below.

Our non-acceptance of your order may be a result of one or more of the following:

  • The Products or Services you ordered are unavailable
  • Unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for
  • We were unable to obtain authorisation for payment
  • We were unable to verify that you are aged over 18
  • The identification of a pricing or Product description error
  • The repeated or fraudulent use of vouchers or promotions (see below)

If we do not accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the order of Products or Services.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made via our Sites. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.

In the event you repeatedly or fraudulently use vouchers or promotions to order Products or Services, we reserve the right to take action against you, including but not limited to reporting any fraudulent actions to the police and/or seeking to recover any sum properly owed. Please note that any fraudulent use of vouchers may be a criminal offence under the Fraud Act 2006.

Age Verification

We may validate name, address, age and other personal information supplied by you during the order process against appropriate third party databases. By accepting these Terms you consent to such checks being made. If we cannot verify your age using this method we may contact you to ask for a driving licence number (or other evidence) in order to proceed with the order.

Prices are subject to change without notice. We also reserve the right to terminate any promotional offer at any time without notice.

We shall not be liable to you or to any third-party for any modification, price change, suspension or discontinuance of the Products or Services.

We endeavour to ensure that all pricing information on our Sites is accurate. In the event a product you have ordered was listed at an incorrect price, we will contact you before dispatching the Products to confirm if you still wish to proceed with 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 Products provided to you.

All Products and Services are subject to availability.

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.

These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address.
