Terms & Conditions

1. Format of the Contract

1.1 These terms of sale apply to all goods supplied by www.chainharrows.co.uk, whose registered office is at Unit 11D Mill Batch Farm Industrial Estate, East Brent, Highbridge, Somerset, TA9 4JN (the "Supplier", or "we", or "our").

1.2 Any order placed by you for goods advertised on our website is an offer by you to purchase the goods selected in your order. No contract exists between you and us for the sale of any goods until we have received your order and accepted it (which we may do at our discretion).

1.3 We will send you an order acknowledgement shortly after you place your order, notifying you that we have received your order. This acknowledgement is not notification that we have accepted your order.

1.4 If we accept your order, we will notify you by email that we have accepted it prior to dispatch of the goods. If we cannot accept your order, for example (but without limitation) because the goods are found to be unavailable) we will notify you by telephone or email.

1.5 In the event that, after we accept your order, we discover that the goods ordered are unavailable or that there was a pricing error on our website in respect of the goods ordered, we reserve the right not to supply the goods ordered and to offer you a refund or alternative goods in accordance with conditions 2.2 to 2.4 below.

1.6 The contract is subject to your right of cancellation (see condition 7 below).

1.7 We have the right to terminate the contract if the price of the goods is not received from you in cleared funds (in accordance with condition 3.1).

1.8 The Supplier may change these terms of sale without notice to you in relation to future sales.

2. Description and price of the goods

2.1 The description and price of the goods you order will be as shown on the Supplier's website at the time you place your order.

2.2 If, after acceptance of your order, we discover within 14 days of such acceptance that all of the goods are unavailable, we may terminate the contract and refund or re-credit you within 7 working days for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your credit card for those goods. In these circumstances we will inform you as soon as possible.

2.3 If, within 7 days of our acceptance of your order we discover that some but not all of the goods are unavailable, we will no longer supply those unavailable goods. In these circumstances we will contact you detailing the goods that are unavailable and offer you the option of cancelling the whole order or amending your order to substitute the unavailable items with alternative goods. If you have not cancelled the order within 14 days of receipt of such notice, we will deliver the available goods in accordance with condition 4 below. We will refund or re-credit you for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your credit card in respect of the unavailable goods or cancelled order (if you have cancelled it).

2.4 Every effort is made to ensure that prices shown on the Supplier's website are accurate at the time you place your order. If within 14 days of accepting your order a pricing error is found in respect of any or all of the goods you have ordered, we will notify you as soon as possible detailing the mis-priced goods and offering you the option of:

2.4.1 placing a new order at the correct price for those goods;

2.4.2 cancelling the whole of your order; or

2.4.3 cancelling your order for the mis-priced goods and reconfirming your order for the correctly priced goods.
If, within 7 days of receipt of our notice to you, you have not responded by selecting one of the available options at conditions 2.4.1 to 2.4.3 above then:

(a) if all of the goods you have ordered are found to be mis-priced, the entire order will be cancelled automatically and the Supplier will refund or re-credit you for any sum you have paid for those goods; or

(b) if only some of the goods you have ordered are found to be mis-priced, our contract with you continues and we will deliver the correctly priced goods, but we will not be obliged to supply you with the mis-priced goods. In these circumstances we will refund or re-credit you for any sum you have paid for the mis-priced goods.

2.5 To avoid any doubt, where goods are unavailable and you order alternative goods from us, or where goods have been mis-priced and you subsequently order such goods at the correct price, these terms of sale shall apply to the order and the supply of the relevant goods whether the order is placed through our website or otherwise.

2.6 In addition to the price, you may be required to pay a delivery charge for the goods, details of which are clearly displayed on our website at the point that you place your order.

All Used Goods supplied by the Supplier are warranted free from defects for 30 days from the date of supply (unless stated as 'sold as seen' - in which case no warranty will be provided). This warranty does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.

8.2 The warranty in condition 8.1 above do not apply to any defect in the goods arising from fair wear and tear, wilful damage, accident, negligence by you or any third party, use otherwise than in accordance with its intended use, failure to follow the manufacturer's or Supplier's instructions, or any alteration or repair carried out without the Suppliers prior written approval.

8.3 If the goods supplied to you are damaged in transit, you should notify the Supplier in writing or via email within 7 working days of receipt of the goods (please note that this is 48 hours for our business customers) and return the goods to us.
