You are provided with access to this Website in accordance with these Conditions and any orders placed by you must be placed strictly in accordance with these Conditions.

Every care has been taken to ensure that all descriptions, measurements, colours and prices are correct. Measurements given are approximate. While every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of colour reproduction, colours may vary.

If an item is unavailable, we reserve the right to substitute the item for a similar product at no extra cost to you. However if you are unhappy with the substituted item, you can return the product at no extra cost to you. (Please see the 'Returns Policy' section).

Prices
In the event that a product is listed at an incorrect price due to human or technical error, Active Mail Order shall have the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for products or services listed at the incorrect price. Active Mail Order shall have the right to refuse or cancel any such orders whether or not the order has been confirmed and monies have been set aside on your credit card. Please note that prices can increase as well as decrease.
Please note that only one promotional code or other discount can be used per order, and not in conjunction with any other offers (including products marked as 'special offer').

Basis of Sale
When you click on "Buy Now" at the checkout on the website, or telephone on the mail order line, you offer to buy the Goods at the prices indicated including any delivery charges that apply to your purchase. All orders will be subject to these conditions. If your order is acknowledged online, you will be notified of this soon after you submit your order. Please note that as the acknowledgement is sent to you automatically, an error may have been made of which we are not aware despite our best efforts (please see under 'Non-acceptance of an order' heading). Because of this, we retain the right to cancel the order.

Non-acceptance of an Order
Orders may be rejected as a result of one of the following:

The product you ordered being unavailable from stock.
Our inability to obtain authorisation for your payment.
The identification of a pricing or product description error.
A system error - such as automatic confirmation making an error.
You request delivery outside of UK mainland and do not accept the extra delivery charges.

Payment
All prices are inclusive of VAT (where applicable) at the current rates and are correct at the time of entering the information onto the system. The total cost of your order is the price of the Products ordered plus delivery charges and any other charges as set out in the 'Delivery Costs' section. Some items may incur extra charges because of the item being particularly heavy or being subject to an installation charge. Wherever possible we have made every effort to highlight these items. However, before your order is confirmed and accepted, we may contact you to inform you of any further charges.

Payment can be made by any of the methods specified in the 'Payment' section and payment will be debited and cleared from your account.

You confirm that the credit, debit or store card that is being used is yours.

All credit/debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to or does not, for any reason, authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery. Please note that we do not accept American Express Cards.

Although we endeavour to dispatch all stock item orders in 48-96hrs on a 48hr delivery service please allow up to 28 days for deliveries. Rarely non stock items, and those items made to your specifications, may take longer. Unless we have stated otherwise in writing delivery dates are not guaranteed, although we shall make every reasonable effort to deliver the goods by any quoted delivery date.
