    4. Placing Orders

    When you order items online for the first time you will need to register with us by setting up an account. This is for security reasons. It also avoids you having to re-enter your details when you place subsequent orders. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account username and password and for preventing unauthorised access to your account. You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. Please take all necessary steps to ensure that the username and password is kept confidential and secure. Please inform us immediately if you have any reason to believe that your username and/or password has become known to anyone else, or are being or are likely to be used in an unauthorised way.

    Please ensure the details you provide us with on registration are correct and complete and inform us promptly of any changes to those details (e.g. change of email or postal address).

    We reserve the right to refuse access to the website, terminate accounts, remove or edit content, or cancel orders at our discretion. If we cancel an order it will be without charge to you.

     

    5. Prices

    Items are invoiced in GBP sterling at the price prevailing at the time you place your order. Please note that we can only accept payment in GBP sterling. Prices displayed on the website include United Kingdom Value Added Tax which will be charged at the current rate as shown on the online order form (or if you are placing your order by telephone, as advised by our Customer Services team). Delivery and packaging is charged extra. Details of our delivery charges can be found in the Delivery section of these Terms and Conditions. From time to time we may choose to display prices on the website in foreign currencies as well as GBP sterling.

We reserve the right to update prices displayed on the website from time to time.

     

    6. The Contract Between Us

    When you place an order to purchase items using the website or by telephone, this is an offer by you to us to purchase those items. We only accept your order when we have confirmed availability and have processed the payment on your credit card successfully. The contract between us is formed at the point we accept your order. See the Acceptance of OnLine Orders and Acceptance of Telephone Orders sections below for further details. If an item within your order is not available we will contact you. Where possible we may offer you a substitute item. Please see the Availability and Substitution section below.

     

    7. Acceptance of Online Orders

    We acknowledge receipt of orders which you submit using the website by sending you an email summarising the details of your order (“Online Order Receipt”). We accept your order for an item when we send you an e-mail confirming that we have dispatched the items in your order. For orders placed online using this website the contract between us is formed at the point we send you the online order despatch note for those items detailed in the despatch note email. If your order contained a number of items and the email mentions only some of them, those items which have yet to be dispatched to you do not form part of that contract. Included in the despatch note email is an order reference number that will enable you to track the progress of your order.

     

    8. Acceptance of Telephone Orders

    When you place your order by telephone you will be given a customer reference number as acknowledgement of your order. It will enable you to track the progress of your order. We accept your order for an item ordered by telephone at the point of dispatching that item to you.

     

    9. Availability and Substitution

    We accept orders for items subject to availability. If for any reason the items you ordered are no longer available we will at our discretion either:- offer you an alternative item of equivalent quality and price (where this is possible); or- cancel the item from your order and where payment has already been deducted from your account give you a full refund in respect of that item.

     

    10. Payment

    You may pay for the items that you place by distance means (i.e. online or by telephone), by supplying your credit or debit card details. We accept the following card types: Visa, Amex, Delta, Mastercard, Maestro, Electron and JCB. In the case of online orders you supply these details in the secure online order form. In the case of telephone orders, you supply these details to a member of our Customer Services team. We regret that we cannot accept cheques, gift vouchers or cash as payment online or by telephone. Receipt of your credit card details and debit of payments does not constitute our acceptance of your order. Acceptance of your order occurs in the case of online orders when we send you the Online Order Despatch Note email or in the case of telephone orders at the point we dispatch the items (see The Contract Between Us section above). You are responsible for ensuring the email address and other contact details you provide to us are correct. We will not be responsible if you do not receive the Despatch Note email or other confirmation from us where the details you have supplied are incorrect or in the event of communication system failures outside our control.

    Please note that we cannot guarantee the security of data which you send us by email. Accordingly please do not send us payment information using email. For details of the security measures we employ please read our Privacy Policy

    Unless we are fraudulent or negligent we will not be liable to you for any losses caused as a result of unauthorised access to the personal and transactional information you provide us when placing an order.

     

    11. Risk and Title

    Risk in the items will pass at the time the items are delivered. Ownership of items delivered will only pass when we receive payment in full of all sums due in respect of the items (including packing and delivery costs). If we do not receive payment in full we may, without prior notice, claim from you any items that have been delivered.

     

    12. Cancellation Right

    Under the distance selling regulations, you have the legal right to cancel your order within seven working days of receipt of the goods (with the exception of certain items – see ‘Items which by their nature cannot be returned’). For details of how to exercise this right please see sections 15 and 16 below.

     

    13. Items which by their nature cannot be returned

    For reasons of hygiene, we regret that we are not able to exchange or offer you a refund if you decide you no longer want items which by their nature cannot be returned once they have been dispatched, including: – pierced earrings – items of nylon clothing which become distorted when worn- lingerie- swimwear- hats and other headwear. This does not, however, affect your statutory rights in relation to such items if they are faulty or damaged when you receive them (see the Faulty or Damaged Items section below) or if they are items that you have been sent in error.

    Please also note, that we do not offer refunds on the purchase of Libby London gift vouchers.

    If you have any questions please contact our Customer Services team.

     

    14. Returns Conditions

    If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, you are welcome to return any items ordered within 14 days, beginning the day after your order is delivered.

It is your responsibility to wrap items adequately to prevent damage.

     

    15. Returns Process

    Returns for goods delivered using our free UK returns service are handled via Royal Mail:

    Please enclose your completed Delivery Receipt, and pack your return securely. Affix the postage paid returns label, which is enclosed in your order, and send your return via the Royal Mail.

    Please remember to ask the Post Office for your proof of posting certificate and retain it for your reference until you have received your refund. The Post Office will stamp this and supply a tracking reference number to prove the item(s) have been dispatched. We strongly advise that you keep hold of any tracking numbers that the post office may give you as we regret that we cannot be held responsible for the non-delivery of returned goods.  As long as the returns label provided is used, then this return is completely free of charge within the mainland United Kingdom.

    If you have any queries please contact Customer Services.

    Refunds will be issued to the credit or debit card originally used to make payment. Please allow up to 14 working days for the refund to reach your account from the day we receive your return.

    If the items you ordered are damaged or faulty upon receipt, provided you inform our Customer Service team within 30 days of receiving the items (supplying them with the order reference details shown on the delivery documentation together with details of the damage or fault) we will send replacements or offer you a refund. We ask that you return the damaged or faulty items to us by registered post – we will reimburse the reasonable costs you incur in doing so (we ask that you send us copies of the supporting receipts). Refunds will be credited to the payment method used to make the original purchase.

     

    17. Gifts 

    When in line with the above terms (see points 14, 15 and 16), in the event that a recipient of a gift item wishes to return that item we will be happy to issue credit vouchers to the appropriate value of the gift or exchange the item.
