If you request a refund under our returns policy, we will refund you the price you paid for the items. However, please note we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the items, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. We will also refund any delivery costs you have paid us to send your item, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer.

Please note, if an exchange is required, your order will need to be refunded and a new order will be placed. Please contact us and we'll be happy to help you with this.

Cancellations and exchanges

If you want to cancel your order, please contact us as soon as possible. Since we ship quickly, it may not be possible to stop your order so please follow the instructions for 'Returns' in those instances. Please follow these instructions for exchanges as well. It will usually be faster to re-order an item rather than send it back for an exchange, so please follow the above instructions while you order the item you would like instead. We realize this means two transactions on your credit card but feel it is faster for you to get the item you would like.

If we are providing engraving or repair services you cannot cancel your order if we have already started the work. This does not apply to repairs you have instructed us to carry out to defective or damaged items.

Defective and damaged items

Should you receive an item you have ordered that is defective, damaged or not what you ordered, please contact us as soon as possible. You must return any defective, damaged or incorrect item to us within 30 days of receiving the item. You may then choose to receive a replacement item, repair, ex-change for an alternative item or refund. We will help you resolve any issues as quickly as possible.

Where the item is defective, damaged or dispatched in error by us, we will refund the price of the item in full, together with any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us.

Please see our "shipping" page (link to shipping page) for information on timings and costs. We will use our reasonable endeavors to deliver the items or services within the times indicated. However, where delivery times and dates are given, they are for general guidance only and we will not be held liable for late delivery of items caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

We shall attempt to deliver the items to the address you specify for delivery, or if none, to the credit card address you supply. You are responsible for making arrangements to receive the items and if the items are held at carrier’s office or other delivery company's depot because no one was available when the items were delivered then it is your responsibility to swiftly collect the items. It is important that the addresses supplied by you to us are accurate.

Please note that we are currently not able to deliver to P.O. Boxes or military bases. It may not be possible for us to deliver to some countries, if an order is received with a delivery address outside the territories stated, you will be contacted by our Customer Service Team.

Contract for sale or services

The description of the items, services, price, currency, VAT and delivery costs are set out on the order page. The advertising of items and services on this site is an 'invitation to treat'. That means your order is an offer and no contract of sale is formed between you and us until you receive the 'confirmation of order' email from us. Orders shall be accepted at our sole discretion but are normally accepted once credit card authorization has been confirmed, the order reflects current pricing, stock levels have been checked or, in the case of services, that we can offer the service you require. Once we accept your order, you shall pay the price for the items or services plus VAT and delivery and other costs specified on the order page and we shall charge your account for payment. Please keep your "confirmation of order" e-mail for your records.

In exceptional circumstances, if we are not able to fulfill an order we have accepted, your credit card will be re-credited with the original price and we will notify you by email. In no circumstances will we be liable to you for any additional amounts.

These terms and conditions cannot be varied except by changes made by us on the site, which we may make from time to time. Proposed changes to the terms and conditions will be notified to you by e-mail or flagged for your attention when you log onto the site for a new session. Your continued use of the site after such notification shall be taken as your full acceptance of such changes. You will only own the items you purchase once they have been successfully delivered and when we have received cleared payment for them in full. Until that time we will retain title to the items. Items supplied are not for resale.
