8.4 Our site contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a Product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you.

9. Your Right to Cancel
9.1 If you are contracting as a consumer (as ‘consumer’ is defined in clause 3 above), you have a right under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 (as amended) to cancel the Contract at any time within fourteen working days, beginning on the day after you received the Products. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products (including the original initial delivery charges subject to any import duties and taxes which you have paid and which you will not receive any refund for) in accordance with our returns policy at clause 10 below.
9.2 If you want to exercise your right under clause 9.1 to cancel a Contract, please return the Product(s), including any documentation and the original packaging to us immediately, in the same condition in which you received them, to Heywood Hill, 10 Curzon Street, London, W1J 5HH.

9.3 Please note that you will be responsible for the costs of returning the Products to us (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of any import duties and/or taxes) unless we delivered the items to you in error or the Products are faulty. If you do not return the Products as required, we may charge you a sum not exceeding the direct costs of recovering the Products.
9.4 You must take reasonable care of the Products whilst they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may refuse to accept your cancellation under this clause 9 and/or have a right of action against you for compensation.
9.5 Please also note that you will not have the right to cancel the Contract under this clause 9 where you have asked us to personalise the Products to your order or if the Product is bespoke in any way.
9.6 It is important for you to know that nothing in this clause 9 affects your rights as a consumer (as ‘consumer’ is defined at clause 3 above). As a consumer you have the benefit of certain warranties implied into the Contract.

10.2 When you return a Product to us:
(a) because you have cancelled the Contract between us in accordance with clause 6 above, we will refund the price of the Product in full (subject to clause 9.3) we will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day you have given notice of your cancellation; or
(b) because you claim that the Product is defective, we will examine the returned Product considering, among other points, whether and to what extent (if any) the Product has been worn or used and damaged. As part of our examination, we will call you directly to discuss the Product in question and, if appropriate, discuss whether you would prefer a replacement of the Product or a refund. Subject to our agreement that a defect exists, you will be either refunded in full (including a refund of the delivery charges for sending the item to you and the cost incurred by you in returning the item to us), or the Product in question will be replaced. If you choose to be refunded for the Product, we will usually process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case within 30 days of the day we confirmed to you that you were entitled to a refund for the defective Product.
(c) Save in exceptional circumstances, we will make refunds using the same method, and returning the price paid to the same card originally used by you to pay for your purchase. For the avoidance of doubt, gift card recipients are entitled to exchange only in respect of Products.
