When you become responsible for and own the goods.
You own goods once we have received payment in full for those goods. The goods will be your responsibility from the time we deliver or first attempt to deliver the goods to the delivery address you provided to us in your order.
Unable to accept your delivery. If no one is available at your address to take delivery, the goods cannot be posted through your letterbox and you have not provided us with any delivery instructions, our courier will find a suitable ‘safe place’ to leave the parcel, if there is not a suitable safe location they will dispose of the goods. It is your responsibility to provide us with a safe location to leave your parcel if you are unable to be at home to receive the items. Failing to provide us with a safe location or making yourself available to receive the goods means you shall be liable for any additional delivery costs incurred by us. We accept no liability in respect of damaged or perished goods where we have been unable to deliver them during our delivery attempt. If you fail to rearrange redelivery (or the goods have already perished before you do so), you will still be charged for the goods (and any delivery costs). In no circumstance will you be entitled to a refund in respect of goods which we have been unable to deliver. If you arrange redelivery directly with our courier or If no one is available at your address to take delivery of goods and you contact our courier directly to arrange redelivery at a later time and/or date, we cannot guarantee the courier will store goods appropriately and that goods will reach you in a satisfactory condition. We do not recommend that you rearrange delivery goods directly with our courier. If you arrange redelivery directly with our courier, you accept responsibility for the condition of goods delivered and acknowledge that we shall not be liable for the condition of goods received. You will not be entitled to a refund in respect of unsatisfactory goods or late delivery where you have arranged redelivery directly with our courier.

You must provide us with such information when you place your order and we will confirm the information you give us in our order confirmation email. If the information you give us is incorrect, it is your responsibility to contact us to let us know as soon as possible. If any of the information we require is missing or we discover it is incorrect, we will attempt to contact you. If you do not give us the information we require within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, or we are not able to contact you, we may end the contract (and conditions will apply). We will not be responsible for supplying the goods late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you giving us incorrect or incomplete information and you may still be charged.
