The prices of the products will be as quoted on our site from time to time. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices of products are correct at the time when the information was entered onto the system.

We will normally check prices as part of our despatch procedures. If the products are incorrectly priced, then where the product’s correct price is less than the price stated on our site, we will refund the difference of the lower amount. However, please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as mis-pricing, we do not have to provide the products to you at the incorrect (lower) price.

Where the product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will contact you in writing as soon as possible to inform you of this error. We will give you the option of continuing to purchase the product at the correct price or cancelling the order. We will not process any payment transactions until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you within seven (7) calendar days using the personal information you provided to us, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing confirming the refund.
