    We reserve the right to:

    Decline a new customer registration or suspend or terminate a customer’s account at any time and at our sole discretion.

    At our absolute discretion, terminate your access to all or part of this service with or without notice.

    We reserve the right to cancel purchases, for any reason prior to processing payment and dispatch.

    If purchases are cancelled for any reason prior to dispatch, you will be refunded in accordance with our refund policy.

    STOCK & PRICING
    Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that all graphical representations and descriptions of goods available correspond to the actual goods, we are not responsible for any variations from these descriptions. This does not exclude our liability for mistakes due to negligence on our part and refers only to variations of the correct goods, not different goods altogether.

    All pricing information on the website is correct at the time of going online, however prices at the time of ordering are guide prices. We reserve the right to change prices and alter or remove any special offers from time to time and as necessary. All pricing information is reviewed and updated every two months. Our website contains a large number of goods and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the goods listed on our site may be incorrectly priced.  We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the product to you.

    Any typographical, clerical or other error or omission in any sales literature, quotation, price list, acceptance of offer, invoice or other document or information issued by us shall be subject to correction without any liability on our part.

    No statement, description, warranty condition or recommendation contained in the website, price list, advertisement, communication or made verbally by any of the agents or employees of the seller shall be construed to enlarge, vary or override in any way thereof any of these conditions.

    All prices on the website do include VAT and reflect the current rate.

    DELIVERY
    Delivery will be made to the address specified by the customer when completing the online order form. All goods must be signed for by an adult aged 18 years or over.

    The costs of delivery will be as displayed to you on our website based on the weight of your order.  We offer customers two different rates, including and excluding postage insurance.  We cannot be held responsible for any issues related to loss, damage or any other issue arising from shipping where the customer has not chosen to have their shipment insured.

    We will use their reasonable endeavours to meet any date agreed for delivery. You have legal rights if we deliver any goods late. If we miss the delivery deadline for any goods then you may treat the contract at an end immediately if any of the following apply:
    (a) we have refused to deliver the goods;
    (b) delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
    (c) you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.

    If you do choose to treat the contract as at an end for late delivery, you can cancel your order for any of the goods or reject goods that have been delivered.

    If there is no one to receive the delivery at the specified address at the time of your scheduled delivery, we reserve the right to return your order to our store and to charge a delivery charge for re-delivery.

    If we receive no communication from you, within 24 hours of delivery, regarding any problems with the goods, you are deemed to have accepted and received the goods.

    RETURNS & CANCELLATIONS
    We aim to always provide high quality goods that are fault free and undamaged. On occasion, however, goods may need to be returned.  Please retain your receipt for refunds within 7 days from the date of the purchase.

    If you receive goods which do not match those that you ordered, unless accompanied by an explanatory note detailing the changes, stating reasons for the changes and setting out your options, you should contact us within 24 hours to arrange collection and return. We are not responsible for paying shipment costs for postal deliveries. You will be given the option to have the goods replaced with those ordered (if available) or to be refunded through the payment method used by you when purchasing the goods. Refunds and replacements will be issued upon our receipt of the returned goods.

    We cannot be held responsible for any issues related to loss, damage or any other issue arising from shipping where the customer has not chosen to have their shipment insured.

    We do not accept return on perishable foods once these have left our premises.  Perishable foods include fresh fruit and vegatables, flowers, any froze item(s), any meat products and/or any other items and/or products not explicitly referred to but, in our opinion, would be deemed perishable.

    If the goods are not perishable – this is a summary of your key legal rights for faulty goods.

    The Consumer Rights Act 2015 says goods must be as described fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. During the expected lifespan of your product your legal rights entitle you to the following:
    – up to 30 days: if your goods are faulty, then you can get an immediate refund.
    – up to six months: if your goods can’t be repaired or replaced, then you’re entitled to a full refund, in most cases.
    – up to six years: if your goods do not last a reasonable length of time you may be entitled to some money back.

    If any goods are not considered to be perishable and develop faults within their warranty period, you are entitled to a repair or replacement at our discretion under the terms of that warranty.

    If goods are damaged in transit and the damage is apparent on delivery, you should sign the delivery note to the effect that the goods have been damaged. In any event, you should report such damage to us within 24 hours and arrange collection and return. Upon receipt of the returned goods, the price of the goods, as paid by you, will be refunded to you through the payment method used by you when purchasing the goods.

    If the goods have been dispatched or delivered, but you have changed your mind, please give written notice of your wish to return the goods within 14 working days of receipt. You will not be entitled to this cancellation period should the item be considered to be something that deteriorates quickly, has a limited expiration date or is frozen food. For health and hygiene reasons the following items sealed for protection reasons will be deemed as used if unwrapped: Personal grooming products e.g. hair accessories and styling products, shavers, waxing kits, electric toothbrushes etc, and will therefore be unable to be returned if not in their original unused condition. Cancellation will be accepted only upon customers’ written consent. We would request you to send the products back to us as soon as you can after the cancellation. The consumer has a duty of care for the products during the cancellation period. You are responsible for paying shipment costs if goods are returned for this reason.

    We reserve the right to exercise discretion with respect to any returns under these Terms and Conditions. Factors which may be taken into account in the exercise of this discretion include, but are not limited to:
    Any use or enjoyment that you may have already had out of the goods;
    Any characteristics of the goods which may cause them to deteriorate or expire rapidly, as stipulated above;
    The fact that the goods consist of audio or video recordings or computer software and that these have been unsealed by the consumer.

    Any discounts that may have formed part of the purchase price of the goods to reflect any lack of quality made known to the customer at the time of purchase.

    Such discretion to be exercised only within the confines of the law.

    We reserve the right to deduct reasonable administration fees and/or costs incurred as a result of the refund request.

    Best Before Dates

    At times, we encounter challenges with the best before dates of our products due to the lengthy shipping process from distant corners of the globe. It is important to understand that the best before dates provided by manufacturers are merely an indication of when a product is expected to taste its finest. However, it is possible for the taste and texture to be slightly altered after this date, although manufacturers are usually quite careful and may even adjust the dates for business purposes. It is crucial to differentiate between best before dates and use by dates, as the latter are determined with health concerns in mind.

    Product best before dates are displayed on the individual product’s page.  Depending on the type of product, we may from time-to-time sell products past its best before date at a reduced price.
