Returns and Refunds Policy
8. Your Right to Cancel (Distance Selling Regulations)
If you are a consumer, you have the legal right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving the goods without giving any reason.
To exercise this right, you must notify us in writing by email or post before the 14-day cancellation period expires.
Once you notify us of cancellation, you must return the goods within 14 days.
We will refund:
- The price paid for the goods, and
- The standard outbound delivery charge.
We may deduct from your refund for any reduction in value caused by handling the goods more than necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning.
9. Our Voluntary Returns Policy
In addition to your statutory rights, we offer a returns policy allowing most unused items to be returned within 28 days of receipt for a refund or exchange.
To qualify:
- Items must be unused and in a resaleable condition.
- Items must be returned with original packaging, accessories, manuals and labels.
- Proof of purchase is required.
This voluntary returns policy does not affect your statutory rights.
