    4. For further information on VAT and other taxes in your location, please contact your local tax authority.

  12. Delivery

    1. Sellers are required to ship items to you as soon as is reasonably possible upon receipt of payment, taking into account the nature of the item(s) in question, preparation time and, where relevant, manufacturing time (if items are made or customised to order). Unless a Listing states otherwise, or unless you have agreed otherwise with the Seller, the Seller must dispatch items no later than 30 calendar days after the date on which the Sale takes place.

    2. As stated in sub-Clause 8.2.3, you must provide complete and accurate delivery details to the Seller. The Seller is responsible for ensuring that they use the delivery address exactly as you provide it to them, but if dispatched items do not reach you due to an incorrect address provided by you, it is your responsibility and not the Seller's.

    3. Sellers are free to determine the delivery charges for their items; however, Sellers must ensure that delivery charges are reasonable, not excessive, and genuinely reflect the actual cost to the Seller of delivering the item in question to you.

    4. Sellers must also provide a ships-from address for your reference, and this will be displayed in the listing, at the checkout and in any confirmation email following purchase and payment.

    5. Different delivery methods may be offered by different Sellers. Delivery options may include personal delivery, Buyer collection, and postal or delivery service. The final choice of delivery service is to be agreed between you and the Seller.

    7. Our Marketplace allows Sellers to share tracking information obtained from a postal or delivery service with you.

    8. Sellers are responsible for ensuring that they check, are aware of, and comply with all applicable shipping and customs regulations when shipping items to you.

  13. Your Rights to Cancel and Return Items

    1. If you are a consumer (that is, not a business) based in the European Union, you may be entitled to a "cooling-off" period within which you may cancel your contract with a Seller and return an item for any reason. If applicable, the cooling-off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which you (or someone nominated by you) receive(s) the item.

    2. The cooling-off period does not apply in the following circumstances:

      1. If the item is sealed for health or hygiene reasons, and you have unsealed the item after receiving it; or

      2. If the item consists of sealed audio or video recordings (e.g. CD or DVD) or sealed computer software, and you have unsealed the item after receiving it; or

      3. If the item is digital content and it has been downloaded or otherwise accessed by you; or

      4. If the item is likely to deteriorate quickly, for example flowers or food; or

      5. If the item has been personalised or made-to-order for you; or

      6. If the item has been inseparably mixed with another item or other items (according to their nature) after you have received it.

    3. If you wish to exercise your right to cancel during the cooling-off period, you must inform the Seller of your decision within the cooling-off period. You may do so in any way you wish, however for convenience We provide a cancellation form on Our Site. Cancellation by email or by post is effective from the date on which you send the Seller your message. Please note that the cooling-off period lasts for whole calendar days. If, for example, you send the Seller an email or letter by 23:59:59 on the final day of the cooling-off period, your cancellation will be valid and must be accepted.

    4. Items must be returned to the Seller no more than 14 calendar days after the day on which you inform the Seller that you wish to cancel. You will be responsible for the costs of returning items to the Seller if you cancel under the cooling-off period.

    5. When you cancel under the cooling-off period, the Seller must issue a refund within 14 calendar days of the following:

      1. The day on which the Seller receives the item(s) back; or

      2. The day on which you inform the Seller (supplying evidence) that you have sent the item(s) back (if this is earlier than the day under sub-Clause 13.5.1); or

      3. If the Seller has not yet dispatched the item(s), the day on which you inform the Seller that you wish to cancel.

    6. The Seller may make certain limited deductions from refunds under this Clause 13 as follows:

      1. The Seller may reduce a refund for any diminished value in an item resulting from your excessive handling of it (e.g. handling going beyond that which would be permitted in a shop); and/or

      2. The Seller is only required by law to reimburse standard delivery charges. If you have chosen a premium delivery method, the Seller is only required to reimburse you for the equivalent of standard delivery.

  14. Problems with Transactions and Your Rights

    1. By law, Sellers must provide goods and/or digital content that are/is of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, as described at the time of purchase, in accordance with any pre-contract information that the Seller has provided to you, and that matches any samples or models that the Seller has shown to you (unless the Seller has made you aware of any differences).

    2. If items do not conform with the requirements outlined in sub-Clause 14.1 and, for example, have faults or are damaged when you receive them, you must contact the Seller as soon as reasonably possible to inform the Seller of the problem. The following remedies will be available to you:

      1. Beginning on the day that you receive the item(s), if the item(s) is/are goods, you have a 30-calendar day right to reject them and to receive a full refund if they do not conform.

      2. If you do not wish to reject the item(s), if the 30-calendar day rejection period does not apply, or if it has expired, you may request a repair or replacement. The Seller must bear the costs and must carry out the repair or replacement within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to you. If either a repair or a replacement is impossible or disproportionately difficult, the Seller may offer you the alternative option (i.e. a replacement instead of a repair or vice versa) or a full refund. If you request a repair or replacement during the 30-calendar day rejection period, that period will be suspended while the Seller carries out the repair or replacement and will resume on the day that you receive the replacement or repaired item(s). If less than 7 calendar days remain out of the original period, it will be extended to 7 calendar days.

      3. If, after a repair or replacement, the item(s) still do not conform (or if the Seller cannot repair or replace it/them, as described above, or if the Seller has failed to act within a reasonable time or without significant inconvenience to you), you may have the right to keep the item(s) at a reduced price, or to reject it/them in exchange for a refund.

    3. If you exercise your final right to reject the item(s) more than six months after receiving it/them, the Seller may reduce any refund to reflect the use that you have had out of it/them.

    4. Please note you will not be eligible to claim under this Clause 14 in the following circumstances:

      1. the Seller informs you of any fault(s), damage, or other problems with the item(s) before you purchase them and it is because of that/those same issue(s) that you subsequently wish to return them;

      2. you have purchased the item(s) for an unsuitable purpose that is neither obvious nor made known to the Seller and the problem has resulted from your use of the item(s) for that purpose; or

      3. the problem is the result of normal wear and tear, misuse, or intentional or careless damage.

      4. We provide a cancellation form on Our Site for you to use when returning items. If you are retuning items under this, Clause 14, the costs of returning items to a Seller should be covered by the Seller, reimbursing you where necessary. Please note that if you are returning items within your "Cooling-Off" rights (Clause 13 above), the Seller does not have to refund you the costs of returning items. 

    5. Refunds (whether full or partial, including reductions in price) under this Clause 14 must be issued within 14 calendar days of the day on which the Seller agrees that you are entitled to a refund.

    6. Any and all refunds under this Clause 14 will include all delivery costs paid by you when the item(s) was/were originally purchased.

    7. Further information on legal rights can be obtained from your local Citizens Advice Bureau or Trading Standards Office.
