4. Buying From Us
4.1 We will always take reasonable steps to display, as accurately as possible, the colours, dimensions, appearance and other detailing/description of our products (and their packaging where deemed necessary) in the images and text that appear on barlowtyrieatgardensite and other media. However, we do not guarantee that such information will exactly reflect the colour, dimensions, appearance or detailing of the physical product (or its packaging). Your products (and their packaging) may vary from those images and descriptions. To the extent permitted by law, we accept no liability associated with such variations.
4.2 Any information published by GardenSite LLP regarding dimensions (sizing, measurements, weights, capacities) and specifications of products is included as a guide only. If you have concerns about specific details, we recommend that you contact us prior to placing an order and/or purchasing a product.

5.6 When you order online there is an option to specify a separate delivery address. The option to deliver to the specified cardholder’s address or to a third party address is at our complete discretion.
5.7 We may update prices at any time. Despite our reasonable efforts, a small number of the products we sell may occasionally be mis-priced or not have been updated accordingly in media publications. If this happens then we will not be obliged to supply the products at the incorrect or previously stated price or at all. We will, at our complete discretion, either cancel your order and refund the price you have paid or use our reasonable endeavours to contact you in order to confirm whether you wish to continue with the order at the correct price.

To take advantage of promotional prices, you must quote the relevant promotion code when you order (where applicable). We may update or change promotions at any time.

7.2 With regards to any deliveries that GardenSite LLP or our supplier undertakes (subject to stock availability, clause 5 and our Delivery information) we will use reasonable endeavours to ensure delivery by any specified date that we/the supplier agree(s) or, if no date is specified, within 30 days of the date of your order.
7.3 In the case of circumstances beyond our reasonable control (eg. adverse weather, unpredictable delays, fault/inaction of the supplier), we may not be able to ensure delivery of your products within such timescales. We will not be liable for any delay or failure to deliver the products if the delay or failure is wholly or partly caused by such circumstances. In the event that a delivery does not take place, either us or the supplier will confirm an alternative delivery date with you.
7.4 You must use your best endeavours to enable the delivery to take place on the given date. If we are unable to deliver the products as a result of your actions/inactions, we will need to arrange an alternative delivery date and we reserve the right to charge you a further fee for this.

7.6 If you do not receive your products on the stated delivery date, please notify us immediately. We recommend that you do not schedule or commence any assembly work until after you have received your ordered products and checked all of them for any defects or missing parts.
7.8 Each product remains our (or the supplier’s) property until you have paid for it in full or the product has been provided to you (whichever occurs later), whereupon you will own the product. On delivery of the products or collection of the products by you, the products shall be at your risk and responsibility and you will be responsible for their safekeeping and neither us nor the supplier will be responsible for any damage or fault arising from incorrect storage or any other means
7.9 It is the customer’s sole responsibility to dispose of any pallets, damages or packaging left as a result of delivery.
8. Cancellation, Returns and Order Amendments
8.1 The Consumer Contracts Regulations came into effect on 13 June 2014, replacing the Distance Selling Regulations.

8.1.3 You will get a refund within 14 (fourteen) days of either us/the supplier getting the goods back, or you providing evidence of having returned the goods, whichever is sooner.
8.1.4 If the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was reasonably necessary (more than if you were assessing them in a shop), GardenSite LLP reserves the right to make a reasonable deduction to the refund price in accordance with the condition of the product and to cover repackaging/administration fees. Any reduction is at the absolute discretion of GardenSite LLP and GardenSite LLP reserves the right to make no refund at all if the product is not in a condition to be re-sold.
8.1.5 GardenSite LLP acknowledges that we must refund the basic delivery cost of getting the goods to you in the first instance. If you opted for an enhanced service, we are only required to refund the standard delivery cost.

Unless the product is faulty or damaged, the customer will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. We recommend using a recorded postal service. You must arrange the return of the product as soon as possible and in any event no later than 14 days after the cancellation day. Products must be returned with Proof of Purchase and complete with all components including instruction booklets etc. For certain products we may offer a collection service for a fee. Please contact us directly for further details.
8.6 You must keep the product you wish to return in your possession and take reasonable care of the product at all times while in your possession; you must not use the product (except to the extent reasonably necessary for inspection and examination).
8.7 Any changes to your order must be notified to us within a reasonable time after placing the order. If you amend or change your order you may find there are changes to your delivery timetable and/or the price you pay for this item (you may be charged the current selling price on the day you amend your order). If your order has already been despatched, by ourselves or from an external supplier, we will be unable to implement any required changes/amendments.
9. Faulty Products
9.1 On receipt of the products you must check they match your order. If there is any problem or defected, missing or damaged items you must notify us without undue delay so we may contact the supplier or, where the items have been delivered by us, resolve the issue as soon as possible. To claim for goods which are lost in transit, missing or damaged/faulty, the supplier must be informed no later than 3 days from receipt of the goods with written (and photographic if necessary) confirmation.

11.1 We may cancel our agreement by oral or written notice if you are in breach of the agreement, you become unable to pay your debts, bankruptcy/insolvency proceedings are likely to be commenced against you or if we or the relevant supplier are unable to fulfill your order eg. the product you request is discontinued or the product is for an international delivery. Upon cancellation, any money owed to us shall become immediately due. Refunds will be dealt with as set out in clause 8.4.1.
12. Events Beyond Our Control
12.1 We shall have no liability to you for any failure or delay in supply or delivery, nor if performance of any of our obligations is prevented or restricted, nor for any damage or defect to products supplied or delivered under our agreement, in each case that is caused by any event or circumstance beyond our reasonable control (including, without limitation, the following to the extent these are outside our reasonable control: accidents, extreme weather conditions, fire, explosion, flood storm, earthquake, natural disaster, failure of telecommunications networks, inability to use transport networks, acts of God, terrorist attack, war, civil commotion, riots, strikes, lockouts and other industrial disputes, acts or restraints of Government, and imposition of restrictions on imports or exports).
13. Recycling Electrical and Electronic Products
13.1 On 1 July 2007, new government regulations called the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations came into force to encourage people to arrange collection or recycling of old electrical products, rather than throwing them away. The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK. Recycling reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending electrical goods to landfill. Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste so that they can be recycled. The simplest way to recycle is to take recyclable goods to your local councils domestic waste recycling centre; details can be found for local councils on http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/index.htm.
13.2 We also offer a free in store take back service so you are able to take any products we sell to any of our stores. It doesn't matter if you didn't purchase the equipment from us - we'll still take it back. All electrical products purchased via distance selling from one of our websites can also be taken back to one of our stores for recycling, or alternatively we can offer a collection service for a charge of £20.00. This covers the cost of administration and transport.
