  • Until such time as the property in the goods passes to the buyer the Company shall be entitled at any time to require the buyer to deliver up the goods to the Company and, if the buyer fails to do so forthwith, to enter upon any premises of the buyer or any third party where the goods are stored and repossess the goods.

We reserve the right to refuse all or part of any order at the company’s discretion, subject to availability of products and price ruling at time of dispatch. If products listed on the site are over sold at the time of ordering due to high volume of sales we will dispatch goods on a first order basis and refund customers accordingly if their order could not be fulfilled at time of dispatch or advise if/when replacement stock will take longer than approximately 7 working days to arrive. If goods have been discontinued we will inform the customer accordingly and issue a refund. We advise customers to note our drop ship terms in full and note that we cannot guarantee full stock inventory at all times. We recommend customers only advertise for sale products they have in stock themselves so they do not disappoint their customer if at time of ordering we have oversold or the manufacturer has discontinued the product. We also advise customers to ensure they regularly update their stock data base to be in line with products we are advertising for sale so they are not selling products which are no longer available. We do aim to keep our long term out of stock product listings accurate, but customer should note that we do not always get advance notice from suppliers when an item is discontinued, is due to be discontinued or will be unavailable for a period of time.

• Defects and Warranties

• • Customers are required to check stock on arrival for any faults or defects and notification of any faults or defects need to be confirmed in writing within three days of receipt of goods. Any damage to goods in transit must be advised in writing within 24 hours of goods arriving to ensure we can notify the transportation company within their time frame. If the Company is not notified in writing of any defect within 3 days of delivery, the buyer shall be deemed to have examined and accepted the goods in good condition and free from any defects and supplied in accordance with all the specifications of the order.
  • No return of the company’s goods will be accepted unless they have a genuine fault.
  • The Company’s liability for consequential loss shall not exceed the invoice value of the defective goods.
  • Subject as expressly provided in these conditions, and except where the goods are sold to a person dealing as a consumer, (within the meaning of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977), all warranties, conditions or other terms implied by statute or common law are excluded to the fullest permitted by law.
  • In the rare event of you encountering a fault with any item purchased from us, please log the faulty item via your online account, answering the screen questions accurately, loading a picture of it where applicable and providing as much information as possible. You can then follow the status of the enquiry through the ‘enquires status’ screen. Manufacturer’s faulty returns policies vary, so we would need to advise you accordingly in the event of a fault. Some manufacturers will prefer to deal directly with the end consumer or for us resolve it with you to then resolve with the consumer
  • Please check individual products and brands for their warranties. Warranties start from delivery date. Some suppliers guarantees may apply in the UK only so any goods exported are at the buyers risk and must come back to the UK first before we can deal with any issue and we cannot reimburse carriage in such instances. Please also note that for electronic goods the manufacturers plug may not be suitable for the exported country which we cannot be responsible for and use of a plug convertor or adaptor can damage some products so is not advised nor guaranteed by the company.
  • When an item has been authorised by us for collection by a courier it must be packaged in a sealed box ready for collection and labels will be provided by the courier. Also note that any collection that fails due to the recipient not being home or the product being packaged insufficiently will result in the customer incurring recollection charges of £6.50 per box.
  • We strongly advise that furniture is not suitable for shipping overseas as it is likely to get damaged in transit. A carriage surcharge may also apply due to the size of the boxes which you will be notified of before dispatch. If damage does occur we will not cover any additional costs that may arise should we need to send out replacement parts to fix the damage which includes parts and carriage. If you are unable to agree to this we will of course issue a full refund for your order accordingly.
  • We will not be responsible for or able to assist in the case of any product that has been adapted, altered or personalised. Products sold by our manufacturers under their own trademark and or licensing agreements enable that manufacturer to use each respective property in respect of the trademark or licensed articles and as such do not permit the adaptation or personalisation of its product. Therefore before any such personalisation or adaptations you must seek your own permissions as necessary from the respective Trademark holder or Licensor and ensure you have the appropriate product and public liability insurance and testing arrangements in place to cover your own activities.

• Carriage

Please refer to our Carriage Costs and FAQs for delivery charges to your delivery address and when they apply. The volume of the order can vary depending on items ordered, number of units ordered, packing instructions and mode of transport. Drop Ship carriage charges may differ, so please read our drop ship terms and help page for carriage costs details.

• Delivery, Refusal of Delivery and Non Delivery

Goods should arrive within 24hrs of the company’s e-mail notification of goods leaving the company’s warehouse (please note: we do not deliver on the Weekend). If the buyer refuses to accept delivery or is not at the delivery address to accept delivery of the goods, the return carriage and/or storage of the goods will be at the expense and risk of the buyer without prejudice to any other rights of the Company under these conditions or otherwise. The customer will be required to pay for any re-delivery charges or if agreed with the company a 15% re-stocking fee.

• Drop Ship Terms

Customers are not permitted to drop ship goods outside of the country that they are registered in. Furthermore, we do not ship to BFPO address.

If goods are returned to us because the courier company could not make a delivery due to the address not being full and accurate, or because no-one is at home to sign for the goods, we will re-charge you shipping to attempt another delivery.

• Selling on the Internet

The latest manufacturer’s logos, product images and descriptions must be used to represent their products and display the manufacturers SRP. These can be taken directly from the manufacturer’s website or ours with permission. As a minimum the website must show if a product is not physically in stock and where applicable indicate stock availability dates. Your website should not sit alongside or within a third party’s website without specific prior written approval from us. A customer care line number and returns address should be clearly displayed on the website. The checkout process should follow good practise, work and be secure.

• Product Representation

We have made every effort to display the products as accurately as possible; however, customers should be aware that the pictures are a representation of the product and there may be small differences to the actual product, for example as the colours you will see will depend upon your monitor, we cannot guarantee the colour will be accurate. We also aim to describe the product as accurately as possible, and should a product be misrepresented, or the products should change we will endeavour to change the description as soon as possible. We do recommend customers rely on the manufacturer’s guideline or websites for descriptions. Although we allow retailers the function to copy the images from our website, we advise accordingly that any re-use may require permission from the manufacturer directly. Customers should be aware that the sizes of products are an approximate guideline and subject to slight differences by the manufacturer, however this should not affect the usage of the item.
