The reasons are:
      1. we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
      2. there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
      3. we have suspended supply of the products for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than four months.

      1. Bespoke items as these are made to your specification and clearly personalised;
    5. How long do I have to change my mind?How long you have depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered. 
      If you have bought goods you have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery to change your mind about the goods.

    5. Deductions from refunds.If you are exercising your right to change your mind:
      1. We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
      2. The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 2-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.

  11. PRICE AND PAYMENT
    1. Where to find the price for the product.The price of the product (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages if ordering online, or the price indicated in the price list or on the price label, if ordering face to face. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
    2. We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT.If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
    3. What happens if we got the price wrong.It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated , we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
    4. When you must pay and how you must pay.Please see our website for current payment types accepted. Your transaction will be processed by Worldpay in a secure environment. Please note we are not responsible for a delay in dispatching your product if your card issuer delays your payment to us, for what ever reason. 
      For goods, you must pay for the products before we dispatch them. If you pay by credit or debit card, the total order amount will be authorised for payment but we will only charge for the goods as they are dispatched.
