  1. The Contract

 

  • These Terms govern the sale of goods by Us, via the Website or in the store and form the basis of the Contract between Us and You. Before submitting Your Order, You should ensure that You have read these Terms and the Pre-Contract Information carefully.
  • Nothing provided by Us including, but not limited to, information given on the Website, over the telephone, in sales and marketing literature, price lists and other information constitutes a contractual offer capable of acceptance.
  • Your Order is an offer to purchase the Goods that We may, in Our discretion, accept and no Contract exists until We decide to accept it. Acceptance will be indicated by Our Order Confirmation which will be provided by email.
  • The content on the Website does not constitute advice on which You should rely. It is provided for general information purposes only.
  • Insofar as is permitted by law, We make no representation, warranty, or guarantee that the Website will meet Your requirements, that it will not infringe the rights of third parties, that it will be compatible with all software and hardware, or that it will be secure. If, as a result of Our failure to exercise reasonable care and skill, any digital content from Our Site damages Your device or other digital content belonging to You and You are a Consumer, You may be entitled to certain legal remedies.
  • We make reasonable efforts to ensure that the content on the Website is complete, accurate, and up-to-date. We do not, however, make any representations, warranties or guarantees (whether express or implied) that the content is complete, accurate, or up-to-date.  Please note that this exception does not apply to information concerning Goods for sale through the Website.
  • If We are unable to accept Your offer, We will inform You and We will not charge You for the Goods (or if We have already charged You, You will be refunded). There may be several reasons for this, including the fact that a Good is out of stock, the supplier has discontinued the Goods that You have ordered, We are unable to obtain authorisation for Your payment, Your order has not passed Our fraud screening process, You are purchasing an age-restricted Good, an item is unable to be shipped overseas to Your given delivery address due to transport or import restrictions, because of unexpected limits on Our resources which We could not reasonably plan for, because We have identified an error in the price or description of the Goods or because We are unable to meet a delivery deadline You have specified.

 

  1. Description and Specification of Goods

 

  • We have made every reasonable effort to ensure that the Goods conform to illustrations, photographs and descriptions provided on the Website and in sales and marketing literature. We cannot, however, guarantee that all descriptions, illustrations and/or photographs will be precisely accurate due to discrepancies that may arise during the printing process and/or differences in the colour reproduction of electronic displays. Nothing, however, excludes Our liability for mistakes due to negligence on Our part.
  • We are required by law to supply Goods that conform to the Contract. If You receive any Goods that do not conform to the Contract, please refer to Clause 8.
  • If We find, or are made aware of, any typographical, clerical or other accidental errors or omissions in any verbal descriptions, sales and marketing literature, price lists or any other information We will make every reasonable effort to correct such errors or omissions as soon as is reasonably possible. If, as a result of any such error or omission, You have received the wrong Goods, You may return the Goods to Us as provided in Clause 8.  If as a result of any such error or omission, You have paid too much, We will refund the excess paid for the Goods.
  • We reserve the right to make any changes in the specification of the Goods that may be required to conform to any applicable safety or other legal or regulatory requirements without notice.

 

  1. Orders

 

  • All Orders for Goods made by You on the Website or in the Store will be subject to these Terms.
  • You may request a change Your Order at any time before We dispatch the Goods by contacting Us. Requests to change Orders do not need to be made in writing. We will let You know if the change is possible.
  • If Your Order is changed We will inform You of any change to the Price, the timing of supply or anything else which is necessary as a result of Your requested change when You contact Us and We will ask You to confirm whether You wish to go ahead with the change. We will confirm the change in writing.
  • If You change Your mind, You may cancel Your Order at any time before We dispatch the Goods by contacting Us. Please refer to Clause 9 for details of Your cancellation rights.
  • We may cancel Your Order at any time before We dispatch the Goods in the following circumstances:
    • The Goods are no longer in stock and We are unable to re-stock (if, for example, the Goods are discontinued); or
    • An event outside of Our control continues for more than 30 days (please see Clause 13 for events outside of Our control).
  • If We cancel Your Order under sub-Clause 5.5 and You have already paid for the Goods, the payment will be refunded to You within a maximum of 14 Calendar Days. If We cancel Your Order, You will be informed by email.

 

  1. Price and Payment

 

  • The Price of the Goods will be that shown on the Website or advertised in the Store at the time of Your Order.
  • If We offer a Special Price, the Special Price will be valid for a specific period or, if the Special Price is part of an advertised special offer, for the period shown in the advertisement. If the Special Price requires a promotion or voucher code and You are unable to provide a valid promotion or voucher code when making Your Order, the Special Price will not be available to You.  Orders placed during the validity period of a Special Price will be accepted at the Special Price even if We do not accept Your Order until after the period has expired.
  • Our Prices may change at any time but these changes will not affect any Orders that We have already accepted.
  • We make every reasonable effort to ensure that Our Prices, as shown on the Website are correct. Prices will be checked when We process Your Order.  If the correct Price of the Goods is lower than that shown on the Website, You will be charged the lower Price.  If the correct Price of the Goods is higher than that shown on the Website, We will inform You and ask You how You wish to proceed.
  • All Prices include VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between the date of Your Order and the date of Your payment, We will adjust the rate of VAT that You must pay.  Changes in VAT will not affect any Prices where We have already received payment from you.
  • Our Prices do not include the cost of delivery. We offer delivery options on Our Shipping Policy (https://www.decomoorestudio.co.uk/policies/shipping-policy). The cost of Your chosen delivery method will be added on to the final sum due.
  • All payments for Goods must be made in advance before We can dispatch the Goods to you.

 

  1. Delivery

 

  • If You want to see Your delivery options, visit Our Shipping Policy (https://www.decomoorestudio.co.uk/policies/shipping-policy) before You place Your order.
  • Any delivery dates specified are estimates and subject to change. We regret that specific delivery dates and times cannot be agreed when placing Your order. However, options are available at the point of booking with Our logistics team.
  • If You indicate when placing Your Order that You wish to collect the Goods from Us Yourself You may do so after receiving Our Order Confirmation, during Our business hours.
  • Delivery will be deemed to have taken place when the Goods have been received by You (or another person identified by you) at Your chosen delivery address or, if You are collecting the Goods from Us Yourself, when You have collected the Goods.
  • We are not liable for any delays and/or failures in delivery if We cannot gain access to the delivery address or under any event outside Our control. Event outside Our control means any act or event beyond Our reasonable control, including without limitation strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action by third parties, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, or failure of public or private telecommunications networks or impossibility of the use of any means of public or private transport.
  • If We cannot deliver Your goods within the timeframe notified to you, We will contact You to re-arrange delivery.
  • The Goods will be Your responsibility from the time We deliver them to You or a delivery carrier organized by You collects them from Us. You own the Goods once You have paid in full for them.

 

  1. Faulty, Damaged or Incorrect Goods

    • By law, We must provide goods that are of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, as described at the time of purchase, in accordance with any Pre-Contract Information We have provided, and that match any samples or models that You have seen or examined (unless We have made You aware of any differences). If any digital content is included in the Goods, that digital content must also conform.  If any Goods You have purchased do not comply and, for example, have faults or are damaged when You receive them, or if You receive incorrect Goods, please contact Us as soon as reasonably possible to inform Us of the fault, damage or error, and to arrange for a refund, repair or replacement.
    • Beginning on the day that You receive the Goods (and ownership of them) You have a 28 Calendar Days (or 14 Calendar days in the case of Goods sold at a Special Price) right to reject the Goods and to receive a full refund if they do not conform as stated above.
    • If You do not wish to reject the Goods, or if the 28 Calendar Day period has expired, You may request that the Goods are repaired or replaced. Within the first 6 Months after You have received the Goods, You are entitled to a repair or replacement unless We can prove that the defect was not present at the time You bought the Goods. After the first 6 Months, You must prove to Us that the defect was present at the time of purchase in order to qualify for a repair or replacement. We will bear any associated costs and will carry out the repair or replacement within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to you. In some cases, if repair or replacement is impossible or otherwise disproportionate, We may instead offer You the alternative (i.e. a replacement instead of a repair or vice versa) or a full refund.
    • If You request a repair or replacement during the first 28 Calendar Day period, that period will be suspended while We carry out the repair or replacement and will resume on the day that You receive the replacement or repaired Goods. If less than 7 Calendar Days remain out of the original period, it will be extended to 7 Calendar Days.
    • If, after a repair or replacement, the Goods still do not conform (or if We cannot repair or replace them, as described above, or have failed to act within a reasonable time and/or without causing You significant inconvenience), You may have the right either to keep the Goods at a reduced price, or to reject them in exchange for a refund.
    • If You exercise this final right to reject the Goods more than 6 Months after You receive them (and ownership of them), We may reduce any refund to reflect the use You have had out of the Goods.
    • Please note that You will not be eligible to claim under this Clause 8 if We informed You of any faults, damage or other problems with the Goods before Your purchase of them; if You have purchased the Goods for an unsuitable purpose that is neither obvious nor made known to Us and the problem has resulted from Your use of the Goods for that purpose; or if the problem is the result of normal wear and tear, misuse or intentional or careless damage. Please also note that You may not return Goods to Us under this Clause 8 merely because You have changed Your mind.  If You are a consumer, You have a statutory right to a 14 day cooling off period within which You can return Goods for this reason.  Please refer to Clause 9 for more details.
    • To return Goods to Us for any reason under this Clause 8, You may do so in person during Our business hours or You may return them by post or another suitable delivery choice to Our Returns Address. We will be fully responsible for the costs of returning Goods under this Clause 8 and will reimburse You where appropriate.
    • Refunds (whether full or partial, including reductions in price) under this Clause 8 will be issued within 14 Calendar Days of the day on which We agree that You are entitled to the refund.
    • Any and all refunds issued under this Clause 8 will include all delivery costs paid by You when the Goods were originally purchased.

     

    1. Right for Consumer to Cancel If You Change Your Mind

     

    • If you are a Consumer and You have purchased Goods via the Website or telephone, You have a statutory right pursuant to the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 to cancel Your Contract with Us up to 14 Calendar Days after the Goods come into Your physical possession (i.e. You or another person identified by You taking delivery of the Goods under sub-Clause 7.4). You may cancel Your Contract and return the Goods to Us for any reason under this right. If You wish to cancel Your Order before receiving Our Order Confirmation or if You wish to cancel the Contract after receiving the Order Confirmation but before We have dispatched the Goods, sub-Clauses 9.2, 9.3, 9.7.3 and 9.9 will apply.
    • If You wish to exercise Your right to cancel under this Clause 9, You must inform Us of Your decision. You may do so in any way that is convenient to you.  Please ensure that You inform Us of Your decision to cancel before the period in sub-Clause 9.1 expires.  (Note that the cancellation period is defined as whole Calendar Days.  If, for example, You send Us an email or a letter by 23:59 on the final day of the cancellation period, Your cancellation will be valid and accepted).
    • We may ask You why You have chosen to cancel and may use any answers You provide to improve Our Goods and services, however You are under no obligation to provide any details if You do not wish to.
    • Please note that Your statutory right to cancel may be lost in the following cases:
      • If the Goods are sealed for health or hygiene reasons and You have unsealed those Goods after receiving them;
      • If the Goods consist of sealed audio or video recordings (e.g. CD or DVD) or sealed computer software and You have unsealed those Goods after receiving them;
      • If the Goods have been inseparably mixed with other items (according to their nature) after You have received them.
    • You must return the Goods to Us no more than 30 Days after the day on which You have informed Us that You wish to cancel under this Clause 9.
    • You may return Goods to Us in person during Our business hours or You may return them by post or another suitable delivery service of Your choice to Our returns address.
    • Refunds under this Clause 9 will be issued to You within 14 Calendar Days of the following:
      • The day on which We receive the Goods back; or
      • The day on which You inform Us (supplying evidence) that You have sent the Goods back (if this is earlier than the day under sub-Clause 9.7.1);
      • If We have not yet provided an Order Confirmation or have not yet dispatched the Goods, the day on which You inform Us that You wish to cancel the Contract.
    • Refunds under this Clause 9 may be subject to deductions in the following circumstances:
      • Refunds may subject to deductions for any diminished value in the Goods resulting from Your excessive handling of them. For the purposes of this Clause 9, “excessive handling” means any more handling than is reasonably required to ascertain the nature and characteristics of the Goods in question (e.g. no more than would be permitted in a shop).
      • We will make no deductions for damage to delivery packaging (i.e. additional packaging into which We have placed the Goods in their original packaging such as bubble wrap and a brown box) but We may make deductions if the original packaging has been damaged (e.g. torn or otherwise unsealed in a way that would make it difficult or impossible to reseal the packaging and resell the Goods in “new” condition).
      • Standard Delivery charges (see sub-Clause 6.6) will be reimbursed in full along with the Price of the Goods, however We cannot reimburse any additional costs for Premium Delivery. If You chose a Premium Delivery option when You ordered the Goods, We will only reimburse the equivalent Standard Delivery costs as part of Your refund.
    • Refunds under this Clause 9 will be made using the same payment method You used when ordering the Goods.
