4. Price, Delivery
4.1 You must make sure that all information you provide to us, including email and delivery address is accurate. We will not refund you or deliver replacement Goods if we have delivered the Goods to the address you provided to us – even if you have not given us your correct address.
4.2 Unless we otherwise agree in an Order Form, we must receive payment of the whole of the Price for the Goods that you order, including the delivery cost before your order can be accepted. We accept payment by credit or debit card or via Paypal. Once payment has been received by us we will confirm that your order has been accepted by sending an email to you at the email address you provide in the Order Form. Our acceptance of your order brings into existence a legally binding contract between us which comprises the Order Form and these Terms & Conditions.

4.4 We will use all reasonable endeavours to deliver the Goods in accordance with the delivery timescale you select. If you do not receive the Goods within such timescale, you should notify us accordingly. If we are unable to deliver the Goods within 30 days, we shall contact you to discuss delivery of the Goods and if you wish, we shall cancel your order and refund all sums paid.
4.5 Goods for delivery overseas may be subject to additional charges such as import duties and taxes, which are levied once the Goods reach the specified destination. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. You are responsible for such charges and so we recommend that you contact the local customs office for further information as to the amount of such charges (if any). Please also note that Goods for delivery overseas may be opened and inspected by customs authorities.
4.6 If you are a Trader, we may agree that you can collect the Goods from our premises at an agreed time and date.
5. Consumer Purchaser Right to Cancel
5.1 The provisions of Conditions 5.2 to 5.6 apply only to a Consumer.
5.2 You may cancel your contract with us for the Goods ordered through the Site by contacting us by email at info@scarlet-saffron.com or writing to 69-75 Boston Manor Rd, Brentford, UK, TW8 9JJ within 14 days from the date you receive the Goods, clearly stating the following: your name, geographical address, your phone number, email address and full details of the order you wish to cancel.
5.3 If you do cancel your contract, you must not break the seal on the Goods, and you must take reasonable care of the Goods whilst they are in your possession, including by storing them in accordance with our instructions. You must return the Goods to us within 14 days of the notice to cancel, and you must return the Goods at your own cost and risk. We strongly recommend that you send the Goods back to us via a recorded post service and obtain a certificate of posting. We will not refund you if we do not receive the returned Goods.

5.5 If you do not return all of the Goods that you have cancelled in accordance with our request, or you do not pay the costs of returning them to us, we shall be entitled to deduct from the amount to be refunded to you the direct costs of recovering the Goods. If the Goods themselves are damaged during the course of returning the Goods, we will not provide you with a refund as the loss of value of the Goods to us will reflect the price you paid.
5.6 The provisions of this Condition 5 do not affect your consumer statutory rights. If the Goods we deliver are not what you ordered or are damaged or defective, please let us know and we will either (a) replace any Goods that are damaged or defective; or (b) refund to you the amount paid by you for the Goods in question. You must return the Goods to us in accordance with our reasonable request as soon as possible after informing us that the Goods are damaged or have been incorrectly supplied.

From receipt of the Goods until we collect or receive the Goods as the case may be, you shall store the Goods in accordance with our instructions. SUCH REFUND OR REPLACEMENT SHALL BE DETERMINED BY US AND SHALL BE OUR SOLE LIABILITY IN RELATION TO ANY REJECTED PRODUCTS.
