Legal Terms of Service
Terms of Supply
Our Contract With You
The goods we are selling to you (“Goods”) are set out in your order (“Order”). These are the terms on which we supply Goods to you.
Please read these Terms of Supply carefully and check that the details on the Order are complete and accurate, before you submit the Order. If you think that there is a mistake, please contact us to discuss, and please make sure that you ask us to confirm any changes in writing to avoid any confusion.
We consider that these Terms of Supply and the Order constitute the whole agreement between you and us.
When you sign and submit the Order to us, this does not mean we have accepted your order for Goods. Our acceptance of the Order will take place and these Terms of Supply will become binding when we issue you with a written acceptance of an Order, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us. If we are unable to supply you with the Goods, we will inform you of this and we will not process the Order.
If any of these Terms of Supply conflict with any term of the Order, the Order will take priority.
We shall assign an order number to the Order and inform you of it when we confirm the Order. Please quote the order number in all subsequent correspondence with us relating to the Order.
The images of the Goods on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that your computer's display of the colours accurately reflect the colour of the Goods. Your Goods may vary slightly from those images and although we have made every effort to be as accurate as possible, all sizes and measurements indicated on our website may vary slightly.
Changes to order or terms
We may revise these Terms of Supply from time to time if there are changes in how we accept payment from you, including changes to payment partners; and/or changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.
If we have to revise these Terms of Supply, we will give you at least one (1) month's written notice of any changes to these Terms of Supply before they take effect. You can choose to cancel the contract in accordance with your cancellation rights set out below.
You may make a change to the Order for Goods at any time before we despatch the Goods by contacting us. Where this means a change in the total price of the Goods, we will notify you of the amended price in writing. You can choose to cancel the Order in accordance with your cancellation rights set out below in these circumstances.
Delivery of goods
Please note that timescales for delivery and delivery charges will vary depending on the availability of the Goods and your address. We do deliver outside the UK. We will primarily deliver within the EU and US and postage and packaging costs will be stated at checkout. We will consider delivering worldwide if you wish to purchase a few items but this will be at our discretion and on application.
We will contact you with an estimated delivery date. All delivery estimates given at the time of placing and confirming order are subject to change. In any case, we will do our best to contact you and advise you of all changes. Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an Event Outside Our Control (defined below). See below for our responsibilities when this happens.
Delivery of an Order shall be completed when we deliver the Goods to the address you gave us.
If we are not able to deliver the whole of the Order at one time due to operational reasons or shortage of stock, we will deliver the Order in instalments. We will not charge you extra delivery costs for this. However, if you ask us to deliver the Order in instalments, we may charge you extra delivery costs. Each instalment shall constitute a separate contract governed by these Terms of Supply. If we are late delivering an instalment or one instalment is faulty, that will not entitle you to cancel any other instalment.
The Goods will be your responsibility from the completion of delivery. Please open and check the Goods when you receive your Order and inform us of any transit damage problems immediately. It is your right and responsibility to check that your delivered Goods have arrived in perfect condition, before signing the delivery form.
You own the Goods once we have received payment in full.
If the goods are faulty
As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Goods that are faulty or not as described. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office. Nothing in these Terms of Supply will affect these legal rights.
Returns Policy
Each product page will indicate whether or not the Goods are returnable. Many of the Goods we sell are high in value and limited editions meaning that a return will not be possible.
You are responsible for inspecting the Goods at the time of arrival. If the Goods are damaged in transit, or if as an electrical appliance they arrive faulty, you have up to 5 working days from receipt to report the damage or fault. If it is determined the Goods meet the above conditions, we will then provide you with a replacement in part or whole and not a refund. If the goods do not fit properly, you may return them to us for free within 10 calendar days of receipt if you send us the proof of purchase and the product page states that the Goods are returnable. In such case we will refund you the price you paid for the Goods.
This guarantee is in addition to your legal rights in relation to the Goods that are faulty or not as described.
Please refer to our Returns & Shipping page for more information.
Price and payment
The price of the Goods will be set out in our price list in force at the time we confirm your Order. Our prices may change at any time, but price changes will not affect Orders that we have confirmed with you.
These prices include VAT. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of the Order and the date of delivery or performance, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Goods in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
The prices for the Goods exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due.
It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Goods we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of our despatch procedures so that, where the Goods' correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Goods to you. If the Goods' correct price is higher than the price stated on our website, we will contact you to tell you and for your instructions. If the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Goods to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
Where we are providing Goods to you, you must make payment for Goods in advance by credit or debit card as instructed by our website or otherwise in accordance with our payment partner at such time.
The Order will be submitted for processing as soon as you click on the “confirm” button. You will then receive an email from us to confirm the Order and availability of the product.
We may at our sole discretion refuse to process a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of refusing or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.
Our liability to you
If we fail to comply with these Terms of Supply, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breach of the Terms of Supply or our negligence, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if they were an obvious consequence of our breach or if they were contemplated by you and us at the time we entered into this contract.
We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability for:
death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors;
fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
breach of the terms implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 (title and quiet possession);
breach of the terms implied by sections 13, 14 and 15 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 (description, satisfactory quality, fitness for purpose and samples); and
defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
Events Outside Our Control
We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations under these Terms of Supply that is caused by an Event Outside Our Control.
An Event Outside Our Control means any act or event beyond our reasonable control, including without limitation strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action by third parties, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, or failure of public or private telecommunications networks.
If an Event Outside Our Control takes place that affects the performance of our obligations under these Terms of Supply we will contact you as soon as reasonably possible to notify you and our obligations under these Terms of Supply will be suspended and the time for performance of our obligations will be extended for the duration of the Event Outside Our Control. Where the Event Outside Our Control affects our delivery of Goods to you, we will arrange a new delivery date with you after the Event Outside Our Control is over.
You may cancel the contract if an Event Outside Our Control takes place and you no longer wish us to provide the Goods. Please see your cancellation rights in these circumstances. We will only cancel the contract if the Event Outside Our Control continues for longer than four (4) weeks in accordance with our cancellation rights set out below.
Your cancellation rights
Cancellation will not be possible on most Goods and this will be specified on each product page. Your cancellation rights depend on the type of product.
If the product page for Goods states that you are able to cancel, you may cancel an Order before we despatch the Goods and if you have made any payment in advance for Goods that have not been delivered to you, we will refund these amounts to you.
Our cancellation rights
If we have to cancel an Order for Goods before the Goods are delivered due to an Event Outside Our Control or the unavailability of stock, we will promptly contact you.
If we have to cancel an Order and you have made any payment in advance for Goods that have not been delivered to you, we will refund these amounts to you.

This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
Each of the paragraphs of these Terms of Supply operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms of Supply, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.
These Terms of Supply are governed by English law. You and we both agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
