Contract For Sale
These are the terms and conditions of our agreement which apply to all
purchases of products by you from www.chewigem.com and you should read them
carefully. We may vary these terms from time to time and therefore you should
check them before you make a new purchase.
Order – You can submit an order for products by completing
the details required on the order summary page and clicking the order button.
All prices are reflected in £UK Sterling and include VAT where applicable,
providing delivery is to a location in the UK. Orders outside of the United
Kingdom may be subject to an additional charge. Goods supplied are not for
resale. We are under no obligation to accept your order, but would normally do
so where the product is available, the order reflects current pricing and your
credit card/debit card or PayPal payment is approved by PayPal or your credit
card/debit card company.
The Offer – The display of any product on our website is in
no way an offer by us to sell to you. It is your response that is the offer.
Accordingly, we are not liable to sell you any product that might be quoted at
a price lower than that meant by us.
Acceptance of Order – We will acknowledge your offer to
purchase our products via an order confirmation email which will be received
shortly after your order is placed. Acceptance of your order will occur on
completion of dispatch, for which you will receive an email. At that point, a
binding agreement between us will be in place on these terms and conditions*.
If we do not accept your order for any reason we will email you to advise you
of the change. *but subject to our right to withdraw such acceptance where
your offer relates to goods that have been priced below that which we intended
and/or where discounts have been applied or used in error.
Delivery – We make every effort to deliver all products
within the United Kingdom within seven working days of acceptance of your
order. Where this is not possible, we or our couriers will notify you and,
unless we state otherwise, ensure that your products are delivered within 30
days from acceptance, provided the address is within the EU. This may not
apply in respect of deliveries outside of the EU. All deliveries will be made
to you at the address specified by you in the order. We may, at our discretion
and expense, deliver parts of your order separately. Ownership of the products
shall pass to you once we have received payment in full.
Payment – Delivery will be charged at check out and you can
select your preferred delivery option. We take every reasonable care to
ensure that your order and subsequent transactions are conducted via a secure
link. As we are not responsible for the operation of the secure link we will
not, unless we are negligent, be liable for any loss you may suffer if a third
party obtains unauthorised access to any information you provide via such
link. If products are not available for any reason after we have accepted your
order, we will let you know. We will not charge you for these products and
will refund any amounts already paid (if any) by way of a credit to your
credit card/ debit card or PayPal account.
Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013
This legislation gives you the following cancellation rights when you buy
online or by phone.
-
You have the right to cancel any order that you make with us online or over
the phone within 14 days without any reason. Cancellation will result in a
full refund including the cost of delivery. However, return postage costs
will be born by the purchaser. The cancellation period will expire after 14
days from the day on which you acquire or, if the order is a gift to be
delivered to a third party, the day on which the third party specified by
you in the order acquires physical possession of the goods that you have
ordered (the ‘Cancellation Deadline’);
-
To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to
cancel your order by sending a clear statement either by e-mail to our
Customer Care Team at help@chewigem.com; or in writing to Customer Care
Centre, Chewigem Group Ltd, The Workshop, Rosemill Road, Bridgefoot, Birkhill,
Dundee, DD3 0PW;
-
I/We [*] hereby give notice that I/We [*] cancel my/our [*] contract of for
the supply of the following goods:
Ordered on [*]/ received on [*],
Name
of consumer(s),
Address of consumer(s),
Signature of
consumer(s)
Date
-
To meet the Cancellation Deadline, you must send us your communication
concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the Cancellation
Deadline has expired;
Effect of Cancellation
If you cancel an order, we will reimburse to you all payments received from
you in respect of that order including the costs of delivery up to 14 days,
however, return postage costs remain the consumer’s liability (except for the
supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the
least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us). We will make the
reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than:
-
14 days after the day we receive back from you any goods supplied; or (if
earlier), 14 days after the day you provide evidence to us that you have
returned the goods; or
-
If there were no goods supplied, 14 days after the day on which we are
informed about your decision to cancel the order.
-
If you wish to exercise your right to cancel, you are obliged to retain
possession of the goods and take reasonable care of them until they are
returned;
-
You must send the goods back to us without undue delay and in any event not
later than 14 days from the day on which you notify us of the cancellation
of your order. You are responsible for the costs of returning the goods.
We may make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for
the initial transaction unless you have agreed otherwise. In any event, you
will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement. We may withhold
reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied
evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss of value of any goods
supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you (i.e. in
excess of what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and
functioning of the goods).
Refunds and Exchanges
Please note that in addition to your general right to cancel set out above, we
operate an
Exchange, Refund and Cancellation Policy.
You should read this policy as it gives you extra benefits. This Policy may be
found under Delivery and Returns at the bottom of the website.
The advertising of products on the site is the way in which we are able to
display all the items available to buy through the site. We aim to keep all
products in stock, however, due to the nature of this business it is
inevitable that we may suffer on occasion from being out of stock on some
items due to supply chain issues and demand. When items become out of stock,
this will be clearly marked on the site. On the rare occasion you have taken a
product to check out which is no longer in stock, we will email you to inform
you of this and give you three options:
-
To wait for the item to become available and process the order at that time
(timelines will be given).
-
To choose an alternative product that is in stock and priced the same as
your order for immediate dispatch.
- Cancel your order and we will issue a full refund.
Any contracts or agreements formed between yourself and Chewigem Group Ltd through
this website shall be governed and construed according to UK law and any
disputes or proceedings shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
UK courts.
