When we use the words “writing” or “written” in these terms, this includes emails.
Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.
If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this in writing and will not charge you for your order. This might be because we are out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for or because we have identified an error in the price or description of the products.
We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.
