There may also be slight occasional differences such as handle finishes or slight length or span differences, where the manufactures have changed the specifications and have failed to inform us of the changes.

We cannot accept any liability for any loss or damage to the goods once they have been delivered in accordance with your delivery instructions (unless this is caused by our negligence). We will aim to deliver the goods by the date quoted for delivery but delivery times are not guaranteed and therefore time is not of the essence.

If delivery is delayed beyond this time, we will contact you and either agree a mutually acceptable alternative date, or offer you a full refund. 11.4 The customer must notify the carrier (or postman) of even the slightest trace of damage (holes, signs of crushing, etc.) to the parcel, and refuse the package if necessary. A new, identical product will then be sent to the customer at no additional charge. 11.5 As with any shipment, a delay or loss of goods is possible. In such a case, the carrier shall start an investigation. Every effort is made, for as long as necessary, to find the package. If the package is not found, the carrier will reimburse Naysmith Ltd, and we will deliver a new, identical package to the customer free of charge. 11.6 We shall not be held responsible for delayed delivery times due to the carrier, including for the loss of goods, bad weather or strikes. 11.7 You will become the owner of the goods you have ordered when they have been delivered to you.

CANCELLATION BY US 14.1 We reserve the right not to process your order if: 14.1.1 We have insufficient stock to deliver the goods you have ordered; 14.1.2 We do not deliver to your area; or 14.1.3 One or more of the goods you ordered was listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or an error in the pricing information received by us from our suppliers. 14.2 If we do not process your order for the above reasons, we will notify you by e-mail and will re-credit to your account any sum deducted by us from your credit/debit card as soon as possible, but in any event within 14 days. | 15.

We will pay the cost of postage for their return using a service of our choice. 15.4 Naysmith Ltd will not be responsible for damage or loss of goods or part thereof in transit or for any discrepancy between the goods delivered and the goods ordered unless the customer gives written or email notice of a claim to Naysmith Ltd and the carrier within three (3) business days of delivery. 15.5 In the event of damage of goods or part thereof in transit, the customer must hold the goods and box and make them available for inspection or collection by Naysmith Ltd or its representatives on request. We may ask you to take photograph of the damage and email it to us as proof, so that we can then send out a replacement faster. 15.6 Generally we will despatch everything on your order in the one parcel. If an item is placed on back order we would have contacted you via phone or email to let you know that this is what we have done. So for any discrepancy between the goods delivered and the goods ordered, we will investigate the issue ASAP and if an item has been missed in packing we will despatch the missing item ASAP. | 16. LIABILITY 16.1 Unless agreed otherwise, if you do not receive goods ordered by you within 30 days of the date on which you ordered them and decide to cancel the order rather than re-arrange delivery (in accordance with clause 11), we will provide you with a full refund. The total liability for any claim however arising shall not exceed the price of the goods supplied by Naysmith Limited. 16.2 We are only responsible for losses that are a natural, foreseeable consequence of our breach of these terms and conditions.
