Failed Delivery Attempt. Should there be any dispute as to whether a delivery card has been left, the recipient will have to take this up with the carrier themselves. Unfortunately, we are unable to get involved in this sort of dispute as we are remote from the point of delivery. If the carrier returns the goods to us as above and you want the order resending you will have to pay an additional charge to cover the redelivery and any return costs levied on us by the carrier. If you want us to treat the order as a return then we will refund you in accordance with our returns policy, less any return costs levied on us by the carrier. (Note: items that are not covered by our returns policy will not be refunded) If the carrier is unable to deliver your order due to you providing us with an incomplete or inaccurate delivery address or the delivery is refused when delivery is attempted you will be liable for any additional costs incurred.

(Note: items that are not covered by our returns policy will not be refunded) Changes to Delivery Details. If you make an arrangement with the carrier to leave your order without a signature (e.g. in the porch, in a shed, etc.) then you do so at your own risk. We will not accept any claim for non-delivery or damaged goods. If you arrange with the carrier to deliver it to a different address or to collect it from them, you then become totally responsible for the delivery from that point forward, we will not accept any claim for non-delivery or damaged goods. You will also be responsible for any additional costs incurred as a result of your actions. v15 |
