4. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US
4.1 Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a product. All orders are subject to acceptance by us in accordance with these terms and conditions. After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order (Order Acknowledgement). Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Acceptance of your order will take place and the sale contract between us (Contract) will be formed when we dispatch the ordered products to you unless we have notified you that we do not accept your order or you have cancelled it. 4.2 The Contract will relate only to those products which we dispatch. We will not be obliged to supply any other products which may have been part of your order unless and until we dispatch such products.
5. CONSUMER RIGHTS
No. We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
6. DELIVERY
Our delivery charges and estimated delivery timescales are specified in our “Shipping” section. We make every effort to deliver goods within the estimated timescales, however delays may occasionally occur due to unforeseen circumstances and we shall not be liable for any delay or failure to deliver within such timescales.
7. RISK AND TITLE
7.1 The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery. 7.2 Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.
8. PRICE AND PAYMENT
8.1 The price of any Products will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error. 8.2 These prices include GST but may exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due as set out in our “Delivery Policy” section. 8.3 Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders which we have already taken. 8.4 Our site contains a large number of products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products 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. 8.5 We are under no obligation to provide the product to you at the incorrect (lower) price if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing. 8.6 Payment for all products must be by credit or debit card through our PayPal payment gateway. We accept payment with Visa Credit and Debit, MasterCard, and Amex (inshore only) only. We take payment from your card at the time we receive your order, once we have checked your card details. Products are subject to availability. In the event that we are unable to supply any product we will inform you as soon as possible. A full refund will be given where you have already paid for the product.

We will usually refund any money received from you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase. We will usually process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day we received your cancellation or the day we confirmed to you via e-mail that you were entitled to a refund for delivery of the defective product. 9.2 Products returned by you because of a defect will be refunded in full, including a refund of the delivery charges for sending the item to you and the cost incurred by you in returning the item to us. 9.3 Products returned by you within the seven-day cooling-off period (see paragraph 5.1 above) will be refunded in full, including the cost of sending the item to you.
