If we decide not to accept your order after a payment for the order has been received/processed we will contact you with the details and refund the payment in full as soon as possible or offer an alternative solution for your needs.

Data Security
When your provide credit card information on our website, it is passed directly to the bank via an SSL secured payment gateway and is at no stage stored on our website or in our database. This means there is no risk of your credit card information being stolen, even in the highly unlikely even of someone gaining access to our database. We do not record or your store your credit card details.
Shipping
Shipping charges generally apply as per your Shopping Cart, If the cost of shipping greatly exceeds what we have charged, we may contact you in regards to this. We may be able to reduce costs on some bulk orders. We only use person to person delivery services that require a signature. We recommend only sending your goods to an attended address to avoid delays and possible reshipping or redirection charges. We cannot deliver to PO Boxes. We also cannot leave goods at your house without a signature. On some small inexpensive items, we may at our discretion use delivery services which do not require a signature. Generally we will indicate if this is the case. We may not be able to deliver to some island addresses, if we do so and there are extra charges incurred to yourself to collect goods, such as from barges, contractors, couriers, collection agencies or any other charges due to your location, the customer bears full responsibility for any such charges and they will not be payable by us.
Delivery Times
Normal delivery times for items in stock are 1-3 days from receiving payment, for most Metro Areas. These timelines are guidelines only. We do not take any responsibility for any delays in shipping, as once goods depart us they are in the hands of a third party courier, whose operational capacity is outside our direct control. Where possible we provide courier tracking numbers to customers via email, you can then contact the relevant courier to track your shipments. We will of course do our best to assist with any logistics issues that might arise.
Loss and Damage
Signing for Delivery - The customer/receiver is responsible for making sure that either they or the person accepting the delivery inspect the goods prior to accepting the delivery and signing the Proof Of Delivery (POD) document. If we are instructed to deliver to an address where someone else may be signing for the goods, we recommend passing these instructions on to receptionists or others likely to accept goods on your behalf, to prevent them signing for damaged goods on your behalf, to prevent any issues. Each delivery of goods should be checked for completeness (i.e. the received goods are as per accompanying Consignment Note, some orders may be delivered in separate deliveries, so checking the consignment note is the best way to ensure everything in that specific delivery has been received. Your order confirmation or Tax Invoice, may not be delivered in full in one delivery if multiple services are needed) and any transit damage before signing for said goods. Failure to inspect the goods prior to signing the POD will result in voiding of any insurance against loss or transit damage.
- When you sign a Proof of Delivery (POD) document, you are confirming that the consignment has been delivered in full and in good condition (i.e. no visible/apparent physical damage). The Proof of Delivery should only be signed once the goods have been inspected and deemed to be in good condition, as a clean signed POD will void any insurance against loss or transit damage.
- If a shipment arrives with a damaged carton or item, the delivery should either be rejected with POD not signed or the POD must have the exact damage noted on it as you sign for the goods, including any carton identifier available, signature, name and date as above. If this information is not provided the POD will be treated as clean and will void any ability to claim loss or transit damage against shipping insurance.
Fraud Prevention
For certain Credit Card orders, we may undertake additional steps (as determined by our fraud prevention policies) to ensure the transaction is not fraudulent. These steps may include, but are not limited to:
- Asking you to email from a business or Internet Service Provider account (non free email accounts).
- Changing delivery address to a business we can look up online/White Pages etc and contact via phone.
- Calling the purchaser and/or the owner of the credit card on a landline number
- Verifying the landline number as belonging to the delivery or billing address
- Validating the billing address specified on our website as matching the billing address provided to the credit card issuer
- Requesting the courier to verify and record the identity of the recipient on delivery
Additional Fees and Charges
