If you opt to cancel, you will have to return (at our cost) any relevant Products you have already received and we will arrange a full refund of the price you have paid, including any delivery charges.
9. CONSUMER RIGHT OF RETURN AND REFUND
This clause 9 only applies if you are acting as a consumer. The following sub-clauses 9.1 - 9.8 refer to your legal rights as a consumer.
9.1 If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to cancel a Contract under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 during the period set out below in clause 9.3. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or decide for any other reason that you do not want to receive or keep a Product or the Product is found to be faulty or damaged, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund. Advice about your legal right to cancel the Contract is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.
9.2 However, this cancellation right does not apply in the case of:
(a) any Products that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised such as, for example, personalised stationery;
(b) any Products liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly.
9.3 Your legal right to cancel a Contract starts from the date of the Dispatch Confirmation (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your order), which is when the Contract between us is formed. Your deadline for cancelling the Contract then depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered, as set out below:
End of the cancellation period
The end date is the end of 14 days after the day on which you receive the Product.
Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the Product on 10 January you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January.
The end date is 14 days after the day on which you receive the last instalment of the Product or the last of the separate Products ordered.
Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the first instalment of your Product or the first of your separate Products on 10 January and the last instalment or last separate Product on 15 January you may cancel in respect of all instalments and any or all of the separate Products at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 29 January.
The end date is 14 days after the day on which you receive the first delivery of the Products.
Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January in respect of Products to be delivered at regular intervals over a year and you receive the first delivery of your Product on 10 January, you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January. 24 January is the last day of the cancellation period in respect of all Products to arrive during the year.
The end date is the end of 30 days after the day on which you recieve the product.
Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the Product on 10 January you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 10 February.
9.4 To cancel a Contract, you must inform us that you have decided to cancel. To do this you should email us in accordance with clause 1.2. Please include details of your order to help us to identify it including any order number or code provided when you purchased the Products.
9.5 Refunds
(a) If you decide to cancel your Contract we will:
(i) refund you the price you paid for the Products. However, please note we are permitted by law to reduce your refund 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. They must be returned to us carefully repackaged, and returned in their original packaging in a re-saleable condition. Failure to do this will entitle us to not provide you with a refund and you will be responsible for all costs associated with returning the Products to you. 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.
(ii) refund any delivery costs you have paid, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer (provided that this is a common and generally acceptable method). For example, if you choose to have the Product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost than our standard postage methods, we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
(iii) make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within the deadlines indicated below:
· if you have received the Product: 14 days after the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us. For information about how to return a Product to us, see clause 9.9;
· if you have not received the Product: 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract.
9.6 We advise you to obtain proof of postage when returning any Products as they will remain in your ownership and control until such time as we have received them in accordance with these Terms and have acknowledged receipt.
9.7 If you have returned the Products to us under this clause 9 because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of the Products in full, together with any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us. You have up to 30 days to notify us of Products you believe to be faulty or damaged.
9.8 We will refund you on the credit card or debit card used by you to pay. If you used vouchers or gift cards to pay for the Product we may refund you in the same.
9.9 Returns
(a) If a Product has been delivered to you and you subsequently decide to cancel your Contract:
(i) you must return it to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 30 days after the day on which you let us know that you wish to cancel the Contract. You should send it back, to Fox & Lark Ltd, Suite 505, 37 Westminster Buildings, Theatre Square, Nottingham, NG1 6LG.
(ii) Products bought on sale must be returned within 14 days of purchase.
(iii) unless the Product is faulty or not as described (in this case, see clause 9.6), you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Products to us. If the Product is one which cannot be returned by post, we estimate that if you use the carrier which delivered the Product to you, these costs should not exceed the sums we charged you for delivery.
9.10 Because you are a consumer, we are under a legal duty to supply Products that are in conformity with this Contract. As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Products that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by your right of return and refund in this clause 10 or anything else in these Terms. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.
10. PROMOTIONS
10.1 It is not possible to apply multiple promotions to an order. This includes site wide discounts and items on sale.
10.2 20% off site wide promotions can only be applied between the advertised date period. Offer applies to full price product and cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer. Offer excludes sale items or those already on discount promotion and bespoke products.
10.3 Free standard delivery promotions are only applicable to customers in the UK and Republic of Ireland (ROI) with a UK or ROI mainland post code and excludes shipping to all other countries unless otherwise specified. We reserve the right to close free delivery promotions without notice. Any free delivery promotion excludes any customs or import tax duties applicable to the order. These import taxes or duties must be paid by the customer.

We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you by email. Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
11.7 The customer is responsible for any import charges that may be applied to orders placed.
12. PAYMENT
12.1 Payment for the Products and all applicable delivery charges is in advance.
