The contract between us and you will only be formed when the order is despatched.

In the event of us being unable to process your order for any reason, we will contact you by email or telephone in an effort to resolve the problem.

By accepting the Terms and Conditions you consent to such checks being made. In performing these checks personal information provided by you may be disclosed to a registered Credit Reference Agency which may keep a record of that information.
  9. If the issuer of your card refuses to authorise payment we will not accept your order and we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery and we are not obliged to inform you of the reason for the refusal.

  2. Where you decide to cancel an order after we have despatched the Products, you will be under a duty to return them to us at your own risk. All such Products should be returned within 21 days after the Products have been delivered to you.
