This page sets out the terms and conditions on which we supply the goods listed on our Website. By ordering any of our goods you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.
Our contact details
If you have any questions regarding us, the Website, our goods or an order that you have placed, please email: nigel@wheathills.com or phone +44 (0) 1332 824819.
Your status
By placing your order through our Website, you warrant that:
a) you are at least 18 years old;
b) the information given on your order form is complete and accurate.
Our contract
All orders are subject to acceptance by us and availability of the requested item(s). After placing an order you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order. The email will state the item(s) you have ordered, the cost (including VAT where applicable and postage and packaging) and delivery and invoice details. If your order has been unsuccessful, you will be made aware of the reason why and possible explanations. Please note that this acknowledgment email does not mean that your order has been accepted – your order constitutes an offer to us to purchase goods. All orders are subject to acceptance by us and we will confirm such acceptance by sending you an email confirming that we have dispatched the item(s) to you (the “Dispatch Confirmation“). That email shall represent our legal acceptance of the order you made to purchase the item(s) and the contract between us (the “Contract“) will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation.
If we confirm to you that some but not all item(s) that you have ordered have been dispatched, those item(s) that have not been dispatched will not form part of the Contract. In the event of any change, such as a change in price or expected delivery date, between the completion of your order and the sending of the Dispatch Confirmation, we shall inform you and you shall at that point have the right to either: (a) accept such change (in which case your email reply will represent a new offer which we will accept upon notification of dispatch); or (b) reject such change (in which case your email reply will represent a withdrawal of your order, or the relevant part of you order as the case may be).
Availability and delivery of goods
All orders from WHEATHILLS are gift wrapped in luxury gift boxes, with the exception of larger items for example furniture. Your credit/debit card will not be charged until the date your order is sent to you.
Risk and title
The goods will be at your own risk from the time of delivery.
Ownership of the goods will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the goods, including delivery charges.
Price and payment
All prices include 20% VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount.
