Refund and Returns Policy

Returns / Refund Policy


For some of our products bought online, you have a legal right to change your mind about your purchase and receive a refund of what you paid for it, including the delivery costs. This is subject to some conditions, as set out below.

Please note that in relation to all perishable goods sold by us, the 14 day cooling off period as set out in this policy shall not apply.

Please note that, notwithstanding your statutory rights, delivery charges shall only be refunded in the event that you return your whole order.

Overview

If you change your mind about a product you must let us know no later than 14 days after the day one of our couriers deliver it that you wish to cancel your order. You have another 14 days to return the products once you have informed us. Once we have received the products back you will receive your refund within 14 days.

If your purchase is split into several deliveries over different days, the above mentioned period runs from the day after the last delivery.

If you handle the product in a way which would not be acceptable in-store, we reduce your refund, to compensate us for its reduced value. For example, we reduce your refund if the product’s condition is not “as new”, price tags have been removed, the packaging is damaged or accessories are missing. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the product, no refund may be due. Several types of products are exempt from our returns and refund policy. These exceptions include:

  • Fresh perishable foods products
  • Products that are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly
  • Products sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you receive them
  • Products that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised
  • Products which become mixed inseparably with other products after their delivery
  • Gift vouchers

For products purchased that we do not produce please contact us/return the products to us. Please do not send your products back to the manufacture directly.
