At any point up until then, they may decline to supply the goods to you without giving any reason. At the moment that the goods are dispatched, a contract will be made between you and the Supplier, and you will be charged for the goods.

Although the Supplier takes every care to ensure that the description and specification of the goods is correct, slight variations in colour, dimensions etc, may occur and therefore, we cannot accept any responsibility for any variation in dimensions or colour caused by the browser software or computer system used by you. We always recommend double checking physically on receipt of goods, any cutout sizes prior to cutting holes or other dimension critical works.
   2.2 The goods are subject to availability. If on receipt of your order the goods you have ordered are not available in stock, the Supplier will inform you as soon as possible, and refund or recredit you for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your credit or debit card for the goods.
   2.3 Every effort is made to ensure that prices shown in the Catalogue or shown on the Website are accurate at the time you place your order. If an error is found, the Supplier will inform you as soon as possible and offer you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or cancelling your order. If you cancel, the Supplier will refund or recredit you for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your credit or debit card for the goods.
