If we are not able to deliver your Products we shall notify you by e-mail to arrange another date for delivery.

We may deliver the Products in instalments if they are not all available at the same time for delivery.

Products are sent at our risk until signed for by you or by any other person at the address you have given to us.

All Products must be signed for on delivery by an adult aged 18 years or over. If no one of that age is at the address when the delivery is attempted the Products may be retained by the driver.

Products are sent by post. We will send you a message by email to tell you when we have dispatched your order.

Some Products are so large and heavy that delivery times may be slightly longer. In this case, approximate delivery dates will be given when you place your order.

You must store the Products (at no cost to us) separately from all other Products in your possession and marked in such a way that they are clearly identified as our property.

Despite any of the Products remaining our property, you may sell or use the Products in the ordinary course of your business at full market value for our account.

Any sale or dealing shall be a sale or use of our Products by you on your own behalf, so that you deal as principal and not as agent for us.

Until title to the Products passes from us the entire proceeds of sale of the Products shall be held in trust for us and shall not be mixed with other money or paid into any overdrawn bank account and shall be at all material times identified as our money.

We shall be entitled to recover the price notwithstanding that title to any of the Products has not passed from us.

If we ask you to return Products unsold you must do so.

If, when asked, you fail to return the Products, we may enter to your premises and repossess the Products.

securely wrapped;

including our delivery slip;

at your risk and cost.

You must tell us by email message to [address] you that you would like to return Products, specifying exactly what Products and when purchased, and giving full details of the defect or other reason for return.
