1. Format of the Contract 1.1.
These terms of sale apply to all goods supplied by "South West Play" (the
"Supplier"). 1.2. No contract exists between you and the Supplier for the sale
of any goods until the Supplier has received and accepted your order and the
Supplier has received payment in full (in cleared funds). Once the Supplier does
so, there is a binding legal contract between us. 1.3. By way of clarification,
an acknowledgement of your order will be sent to you via e-mail when you place
your order, but acceptance of your offer to buy the goods will not take place
until after your payment is taken and you receive your acceptance e-mail. It is
at this point that a binding legal contract is created and any contract is
subject to these Terms and Conditions. 1.4. The contract is subject to your
right of cancellation (see below).
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. The goods are subject to availability. If on receipt of your
order the goods you have ordered are not available, the Supplier will inform you
as soon as possible and refund or re-credit you for any sum that has been paid
by you or debited from your credit card for the goods. 2.3. Every effort is made
to ensure that prices shown on the Suppliers website are accurate at the time
you place your order. If an error is found, the Supplier will inform you as soon
as possible and offer you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct
price, or cancelling your order. If the Supplier does not receive an order
confirmation within 14 days of informing you of the error, the order will be
cancelled automatically. If you cancel the order, or if the order is cancelled
automatically due to the expiry of the 14-day period, the Supplier will refund
or re-credit you for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your
credit card for the goods. 2.4. In addition to the price, you may be required to
pay a delivery charge for the goods.
3. Payment 3.1. Payment for the goods and delivery charges can be made by
any method shown on the Supplier's website at the time you place your order.
Payment shall be due before the delivery date and time for payment shall be a
fundamental term of this agreement, breach of which shall entitle the Supplier
to terminate the contract immediately. 3.2. Delivery will not be made until
cleared funds are received. 3.3. You may only set off money you claim from us
against money you owe us with our written agreement and on such terms as we may
state.
4. Delivery 4.1. The goods you order will be delivered to the address you
give when you place your order, except that some deliveries are not made outside
the United Kingdom. 4.2. Orders placed before 1.00 pm on a working day will be
processed that day and will be delivered as per the stated delivery estimate
provided no additional security checks are required and all items are available.
(A working day is any day other than weekends and bank or other public
holidays.) 4.3. If delivery cannot be made to your address for reasons under the
Suppliers control the Supplier will inform you as soon as possible. 4.4. If you
deliberately fail to take delivery of the goods (otherwise than by reason of
circumstances under control of the Supplier) then without prejudice to any other
right or remedy available to the Supplier, the Supplier may: 4.4.1. Store the
goods until actual delivery and charge you for reasonable costs (including
insurance) of storage; or 4.4.2. sell the goods at the best readily obtainable
price and (after deducting all reasonable storage and selling expenses) account
to you for any excess over the price you agreed to pay for the goods or charge
you for any shortfall below the price you agreed to pay for the goods. 4.5. If
you fail to take delivery because you have cancelled your contract under the
Distance Selling Regulations the Supplier shall refund or re-credit you within
30 days for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your credit card
for the goods. 4.6. On exercising your right to cancel you shall be required to
return the goods to the Supplier. Should you fail to return the goods, the
Supplier reserves the right to deduct any direct costs incurred by the Supplier
in retrieving the goods as a result of such failure. 4.7. Every effort will be
made to deliver the goods as soon as possible after your order has been
accepted. However, the Supplier will not be liable for any loss or damage
suffered by you through reasonable or unavoidable delay in delivery. In this
case, the Supplier will inform you as soon as possible. 4.8. Upon receipt of
your order you will be asked to sign for the goods received in good condition.
If the package does not appear to be in good condition then please refuse the
delivery. If you are unable to check the contents of your delivery at the point
of delivery then please sign for the parcel as "UNCHECKED". Failure to do so may
affect any warranty claims that you make thereafter.

ordered and (where appropriate) their delivery. Notification by phone is not

exercise your right of cancellation after the goods have been delivered to you,

cost. The goods must be returned to the address supplied by the Supplier. You

the Supplier will refund or re-credit you within 30 days for any sum that has
been paid by you or debited from your credit card for the goods. 6.6. Except in

for any purpose. 7.4. If you believe that the Supplier has delivered goods that
