(2) This Agreement

To submit an Order, you will need to take the following steps: (i) you must select the Products or Services (and quantities) that you require, and click "Update Basket"; (ii) you will then have the opportunity to review your shopping basket; (iii) when you have finished shopping, click "Check Out Basket"; (iv) enter your details and delivery address and click "submit - proceed to step 2"; and (v) enter your credit card details on our secure site, indicate your acceptance of our terms and conditions, and click "submit – complete order".
After we have received your Order, we will send you the First Acknowledgement. Subsequently, where we accept your Order, we will send you the Second Acknowledgement.
Please note that we will not file a copy of this Agreement. We may update the version of this Agreement on the Site from time to time, and we do not guarantee that the version you have agreed to will remain accessible. We therefore recommend that you download, print and retain a copy of this Agreement for your records.
The only language in which we offer this Agreement is English.
Before you place your Order, you will have the opportunity of identifying whether you have made any input errors by reviewing your basket, your personal and banking details, and your address for delivery. You should correct any errors before proceeding.

(4) Price
Prices for Products and Services are quoted on the Site. The Site contains a large number of Products and Services and it is always possible that some of them may be incorrectly priced. We will verify prices as part of our sale procedures so that a correct price will be stated when you pay for the Product.
In addition to the price of the Products, you may have to pay a delivery charge, which will be as stated when you pay for the Product.
The prices on the Site include any UK value added or sales taxes (where applicable).
Prices for Products are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect Agreements which have come into force.
(5) Payment
Payment in respect of a Product or Service must be made immediately at the time of your Order unless we agree otherwise. We may withhold the Products and Services and/or terminate this Agreement if the price is not received from you in full, on time, in cleared funds.
Payment for all Products must be made by credit or debit card (subject to the paragraph below).
We may from time to time in our absolute discretion set up a customer account which will enable a business customer to issue Orders, and we will invoice for the price in respect of each Order on or at any time after receipt of that Order, and you will pay any such invoices within 30 days following the date of the invoice. Customer accounts will be subject to credit limits which we may vary from time to time in our absolute discretion.
(6) Delivery of Products
We will arrange for the Products to be delivered to the address for delivery indicated in your Order.
We will use reasonable endeavours to deliver Products within 7 days of the date of our Second Acknowledgement. However, we cannot guarantee delivery by the relevant date, particularly where the relevant Product is not in stock. We do however guarantee that unless there are exceptional circumstances all deliveries of Products will be dispatched within 30 days of the later of receipt of payment and the date of our Second Acknowledgement.
We will only deliver Products in the UK and Ireland.
(7) Risk and title
The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery. Ownership of the Products will only pass to you on the later of: (i) delivery of the Products and; (ii) our receipt of full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products (including delivery charges).
(8) Provision of Services
Where this Agreement relates to Services, we will contact you within 7 days of our Second Acknowledgement to arrange for the provision of those Services.
We will provide the Services at your business premises or home address in the UK or Ireland at a time or at times to be mutually agreed.
You have no right under this Agreement to specify which individual or individuals will provide the Services.
We have the right to cancel Services under this Agreement at any time (and refund to you any money paid in respect of Services) where in our reasonable opinion: (i) your premises or address at which you would like us to provide the Services is unsuitable for the provision of Services; (ii) the provision of the Services may lead to a risk to the health or wellbeing of the individual(s) who would provide those Services.
If you fail to receive Services at the pre-arranged place and time, you will lose your right to the provision of those Services (and will not be entitled to any refund in respect of those Services or released from any liability to make payment in relation to those Services).
If the Services have not been provided within a period of 12 months following the date of our Second Acknowledgement, and where (in our reasonable opinion) this failure arises primarily from your failure to be available to receive the Services on sufficient and suitable dates and times, you will automatically lose the right to receive the Services under this Agreement.
(9) Consumer rights
If you enter into this Agreement as a consumer, you may: (i) insofar as the Agreement relates to Products, cancel this Agreement at any time within 14 working days after the day you received the Products; and (ii) insofar as the Agreement relates to Services, cancel this Agreement at any time within 14 working days after the day you received the Second Acknowledgement (subject in each case to the limitations set out below).
You will not have any such right insofar as this Agreement relates to the supply of any Products which constitute audio or video recordings or computer software which have been unsealed by you. Nor will you be able to cancel this Agreement if it relates to the provision of Services and we have, with your agreement, begun the provision of those Services.
If you cancel this Agreement on this basis, you must inform us in writing and (where this Agreement relates to Products) return the Products to us immediately, in the same condition in which you received them. Products returned by you within the 14 working day period referred to above will be refunded in full (including the cost of sending the Products to you). However, you will be responsible for paying the cost of returning the Product to us.
If you cancel this Agreement on this basis and you do not return to the Products to us, we may recover the Products and charge you for the costs we incur in doing so. Similarly, if you return the Products at our expense, we may pass that expense on to you.
(10) Defective Products
You may also cancel this Agreement if the Products supplied are defective.
Products returned by you because of a defect will be refunded in full (including the cost of sending the Products to you, and the cost of returning the Products to us). Alternatively, if we and you agree, we may supply you with a replacement or substitute Product.
(11) Refunds
If you cancel this Agreement and are entitled to a refund, we will usually refund any money received from you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase. We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any event, within 30 days of the day we received your notice of cancellation.
(12) Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
In order to help us meet our obligations under the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2006 we are a member of an approved WEEE compliance scheme run by Valpak Limited. Valpak's contact details are set out on their website at www.valpak.co.uk.
