Shipping And Handling

FOR SHIPPING TO UK ADDRESSES:

Shipping and handling charge for delivery in the UK is from £4.19 (via "Royal Mail 1st Class Post")

Online prices are for website orders only.

Prices for offline orders (verbal/fax/email) can be subject to surcharges due to extra overheads involved.

We also offer a DPD Local "Pack" Service which are specially discounted from our standard rates for orders upto 4kgs.

If you select any of the "Carrier" shipping methods please ensure that there will be someone at the delivery address to sign for the goods. The carrier will only deliver to the address specified as per your order. If no one is at the address they will leave a card for you to contact them. The carrier will attempt one more delivery before returning the goods to us. If goods are returned back to us, we will forward you any return carriage charge and (if goods are still required) a re-delivery charge.

For UK orders, please ensure the correct "County" is selected, We are unable to check the validity of a County so if it is incorrect, any extra charges by the carrier or post office will be added to your order and the difference to be paid.

## Please note: If the order value exceeds £50.00, we reserve the right to change and charge accordingly the delivery method from a non-trackable (eg Royal Mail 1st Class Post) to a trackable service (eg. Royal Mail Special Delivery, DPD or Parcelforce).

## UK Customers only: We regret we can no longer send orders over £50.00 containing Silver by "Royal Mail 1st Class Post". For any order that exceeds £50.00 worth of Silver, please select "Royal Mail Special Delivery" as your shipping method. If we receive an order over £50.00 containing Silver with shipping method "Royal Mail 1st Class Post", the shipping will be changed to "Royal Mail Special Delivery" and any difference in the charges will be applied to the invoice.

When choosing shipping method, shipping method times are not a guarantee of how quickly you will receive the item from time of order. Those times are only valid from time of despatch, see further below under "Delivery Schedule" for order assembling, picking and despatch times - if goods are required by a certain date, please enter those details in the "Special Order Instructions" box during checkout.

HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Along with, or instead of, placing an order you may have sent an enquiry to us, in which we will use the information you've provided to respond to and answer the enquiry.

We may contact you by telephone, email or other means in relation to your order, for example: notifying you of delivery status, updating you on stock availability or informing you of changes with the order. You cannot opt out of these communications. We will never combine these communications with marketing promotions that you have a legal right to opt out of.

We may use your data for marketing purposes but will always provide a means for you to opt out. We may occasionally use the data you supplied, in our own Legitimate Interest, to send details of products and services that we believe may be of interest to you. We will never use your data in a way that conflicts with your own legal rights and interests.

If we share information with a third party, such as a payment gateway or delivery company, their use of your data will be limited to the purpose of fulfilling your order.

We will make our reasonable endeavours to ensure that all third parties treat your personal data in a legal and appropriate way.

We endeavour not to transfer the data of EU citizens outside the EU but where we cannot avoid it we will only do so via a third party that have conformed to all of the appropriate EU legislation providing equivalent protection to that if the data was retained within the EU.

We will not seek personal information from you relating to race, religion, political affiliation, trade union membership, sexual orientation, medical or genetic history and we ask you not to provide such information to us under any circumstances.

HOW WE HOLD YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We will retain the personal information you supply to us in the course of submitting an order or an enquiry, for the purpose of fulfilling that order, responding to or processing that enquiry.

If you place an order, we will retain an electronic copy of your invoice data for the period required by HMRC, after which we will delete it.

CO-OPERATING WITH LEGAL AUTHORITIES

If requested, we will pass information about you (and if relevant, your business) to legal authorities who have the legal right to demand such data.

AUTOMATED PROCESSING

Some advertisers, particularly Facebook and Google (but there are others), are used by us and decide what advertisements to show to people based on automated processing of personal information, in order to make those advertisements as relevant as possible to the people who see them. These advertisers should provide the means for you to opt out of such personalisation.

YOUR RIGHTS

If you have engaged with us, but never placed an order, you may request the complete deletion of your details from our systems. Whether or not you have placed an order, you may request us never to contact you again, and we will comply with your request unless you make a further enquiry with us.

Returns Policy

The customer must inspect the products as soon as possible after direct delivery. If there is noticeable damage on a delivery where a signature is required, please sign the delivery "RECEIVED DAMAGED".

Your rights to return goods are protected under the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations.

You are entitled to cancel your order within 14 days and return the goods within a further 14 days for a full refund of goods plus basic cost of delivery. Do this by contacting us by email and quoting the order number supplied to you. Your refund will be paid within 30 days. You are responsible for the cost and risk of loss or damage when returning the goods, so you should take out enough postal insurance to cover their value. This cancellation policy does not affect your rights when we are at fault - for example, if goods are faulty or misdescribed.

Any goods returned should be in saleable condition.

These terms apply to your order. We may change our terms and conditions at any time, so please do not assume that the same terms will apply in the future.

None of these terms affect your legal rights and these are not diminished in any way. If any term is held to be invalid under any applicable statute or rule of law, that term is automatically omitted from the terms to minimum extent necessary to comply with the law and without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder.

We are unable to refund items that are made specially for an order

(eg. Items sold in specific metres or kilos, ie 3 mtr Silver Wire is a specially made order)

Please ensure all returns are packed well for a safe return with a covering letter quoting the order number.

For all returns: Return carriage is the responsibility of the buyer. For an order that was sent by carrier and is subsequently refused, any charges from the carrier relating to a "refusal" and the order's return will be deducted from any refund that is due on the material.
