After you have finished your selection, click on 'Checkout' and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to complete the order. You may optionally create an account with us or place an order as a guest. Creating an account enables you to retrieve your contact details at a future time without the need to rekey them. Payment methods are PayPal or Credit/Debit card using Sage Pay. Both of these payment service providers are fully PCI DSS compliant. After placing your order you will be taken to the payment provider's secure payment site. Please note, if you choose PayPal, you may pay through your PayPal account or you may checkout as a guest. Your payment details are encrypted and held with the payment service provider only. If you have made a mistake in your order and cannot correct it in the shopping basket, contact us and we will correct the mistake. When confirmation of your order is received, this is to indicate that we have received your order. It does not indicate that a contract exists between us. We will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we send you an invoice. We have included this term to protect us in the case that a mistake has been made in pricing, we have inadvertently under-priced goods, or we are no longer able to supply a particular product for some reason. In the case of a change of price, we will always contact you first to ensure that the price is acceptable. Shipping And Handling Within the UK:

Returns Policy Your rights to return goods are protected under the EU Distance Selling Directive. You are entitled to cancel your order and return the goods within 14 days for a full refund, including the original cost of delivery. Do this by contacting us by email or telephone and quoting the order number supplied to you. Your refund will be paid within 30 days. You are responsible for the cost and risk of loss or damage when returning the goods, so you should take out enough postal insurance to cover their value. This cancellation policy does not affect your rights when we are at fault - for example, if goods are faulty or misdescribed. Any goods returned must be in saleable condition. Return postage is to be paid by the buyer. Non-Returnable Items: Please note, for hygiene reasons some items may not be returned unless faulty or damaged. This includes but is not limited to earrings, food/drink related items, drinking straws, face coverings, etc. We are happy to accept returns/exchanges of fragranced items such as candles and incense in line with our returns policy. We appreciate not every scent is to everyone's taste so want to make it as easy as possible to return unwanted items. However, we cannot accept any items that have been sampled, used, opened or without their complete and resaleable packaging. Damaged Goods or Errors On Our Part: Please notify our sales team of any damaged goods or errors on our part within 14 days of receipt. These terms apply to your order. We may change our terms and conditions at any time, so please do not assume that the same terms will apply in the future. None of these terms affect your legal rights and these are not diminished in any way. If any term is held to be invalid under any applicable statute or rule of law, that term is automatically omitted from the terms to minimum extent necessary to comply with the law and without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder.
