MAKING A CONTRACT WITH US
2.1 Whenever you place an order with us you are making an offer to buy goods.
We will send you an e-mail which will confirm that we have received your order.
This email will be sent to the email address that you give when placing your order, so you must ensure you enter the correct email address when placing your order.
At this stage, the order status will read as “Pending”.
2.2 As soon as we have reviewed your order we will confirm that we have accepted your order. Accordingly, a contract is then made between us. The order status will then be changed to read as “Processing”. We will then begin the production process for your order.
2.3 In the unlikely event that we have made a pricing mistake we will advise you of this. Your order will not progress to the “Processing” stage and there will be no contract between us until a reply has been received agreeing the revised price (if applicable).
2.4 With the exception of photos showing actual products, images of products on this website are for illustrative purposes only. In the case of digital prints we will reproduce the image using a much higher resolution version of the identical image with which you place your order.
2.5 We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the various colours of our products that appear on this website. However, since the screens on all viewing devices (eg personal computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones etc) are calibrated individually, we cannot guarantee that the colours displayed on your monitor will reflect with 100% accuracy the colour of the actual goods.

4.12 Deliveries are made on the condition that there is reasonable access for the safe and easy delivery of the goods. You should tell us about any special delivery requirements or conditions when you place your order.
4.13 Very occasionally, under circumstances beyond our control, our carrier may be prevented from delivering your goods as planned. These circumstances include instances such as accidents, vehicle and equipment breakdowns, fire, flood, severe weather, acts of God, war, riot, civil commotion, malicious damage or the default of our suppliers. We will do our utmost to put matters right as soon as possible in order to ensure that you either receive your order or are fully reimbursed. Please understand that until the situation is rectified we cannot be held accountable for delays or failures in delivering your goods as a result of the aforementioned (extremely rare) circumstances.
