6.             Goods, Pricing and Availability

6.1           We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all descriptions and graphical representations of Goods available from Us correspond to the actual Goods.  Please note, however, the following:

6.1.1      Images of Goods are for illustrative purposes only. There may be slight variations in colour between the image of a product and the actual product sold due to differences in computer displays and lighting conditions;

6.1.2      Images and/or descriptions of packaging are for illustrative purposes only, the actual packaging of Goods may vary.

6.2           Please note that sub-Clause 6.1 does not exclude Our responsibility for mistakes due to negligence on Our part and refers only to minor variations of the correct Goods, not to different Goods altogether. Please refer to Clause 11 if you receive incorrect Goods (i.e. Goods that are not as described).

6.3           Where appropriate, you may be required to select the required size, model, colour, number, of the Goods that you are purchasing.

6.4           We cannot guarantee that Goods will always be available. Stock indications are not provided on Our Site.

6.5           Minor changes may, from time to time, be made to certain Goods between your Order being placed and Us processing that Order and dispatching the Goods, for example, to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements, or to address particular technical or security issues.  Any such changes will not change any main characteristics of the Goods and will not normally affect your use of those Goods. In the case of barbecues this could relate to changes in CE requirements or gas safety legislation.

6.6           We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all prices shown on Our Site are correct at the time of going online.  We reserve the right to change prices and to add, alter, or remove special offers from time to time and as necessary.  Changes in price will not affect any order that you have already placed (please note sub-Clause 6.9 regarding VAT, however).

6.7           All prices are checked by Us before We accept your Order.  In the unlikely event that We have shown incorrect pricing information, We will contact you in writing to inform you of the mistake.  If the correct price is lower than that shown when you made your Order, we will simply charge you the lower amount and continue processing your Order.  If the correct price is higher, We will give you the option to purchase the Goods at the correct price or to cancel your Order (or the affected part of it).  We will not proceed with processing your Order in this case until you respond.  If We do not receive a response from you within 7 days, We will treat your Order as cancelled and notify you of this in writing.

6.8           In the event that the price of Goods you have ordered changes between your Order being placed and Us processing that Order and taking payment, you will be charged the price shown on Our Site at the time of placing your Order.

6.10        Delivery charges are not included in the price of Goods displayed on Our Site.  For more information on delivery charges, please refer to Shipping.  Delivery options and related charges will be presented to you as part of the order process.

7.             Orders – How Contracts Are Formed

7.1           Our Site will guide you through the ordering process.  Before submitting your Order you will be given the opportunity to review your Order and amend it.  Please ensure that you have checked your Order carefully before submitting it.

7.2           If, during the order process, you provide Us with incorrect or incomplete information, please contact Us as soon as possible.  If We are unable to process your Order due to incorrect or incomplete information, We will contact you to ask to correct it.  If you do not give Us the accurate or complete information within a reasonable time of Our request, We will cancel your Order and treat the Contract as being at an end.  If We incur any costs as a result of your incorrect or incomplete information, We may pass those costs on to you.

7.3           No part of Our Site constitutes a contractual offer capable of acceptance.  Your Order constitutes a contractual offer that We may, at Our sole discretion, accept. Our acceptance is indicated by Us sending you an Order Confirmation by email.  Only once We have sent you an Order Confirmation will there be a legally binding Contract between Us and you.

7.4        Order Confirmations shall contain the following information:

7.4.1      Your Order Number;

7.4.2      Confirmation of the Goods ordered including full details of the main characteristics of those Goods;

7.4.3      Fully itemised pricing for the Goods ordered including, where appropriate, taxes, delivery and other additional charges;

7.4.4      Estimated delivery date(s).

7.5           In the unlikely event that We do not accept or cannot fulfil your Order for any reason, We will explain why in writing.  No payment will be taken under normal circumstances.  If We have taken payment any such sums will be refunded to you as soon as possible and in any event within 14 days.

7.6           Any refunds due under this Clause 7 will be made using the same payment method that you used when ordering the Goods unless you specifically request that We make a refund using a different method.

8.             Payment

8.1           Payment for Goods and related delivery charges must always be made in advance and you will be prompted to pay during the order process.  Your chosen payment method will not be charged until We dispatch your Goods.

8.2           We accept the following methods of payment on Our Site:

8.2.1      Credit or Debit card.

9.             Delivery, Risk and Ownership

9.1           All Goods purchased through Our Site will normally be delivered within 30 calendar days after the date of Our Order Confirmation unless otherwise agreed or specified during the Order process (subject to delays caused by events outside of Our control, for which see Clause 13).

9.2           If for any reason we are unable to deliver the Goods to your chosen delivery address, we will leave a note informing you that the Goods have been returned to our premises with instructions for arranging re-delivery. If you do not collect the Goods or arrange for re-delivery, we will contact you to ask for further instructions. We may charge you for storage costs and for re-delivery. If we cannot contact you despite our reasonable efforts, or we cannot arrange re-delivery or collection, we may end the Contract and issue you with a refund but may deduct a reasonable sum in compensation for any net costs incurred by us as a result.

9.3           In the unlikely event that We fail to deliver the Goods within 30 calendar days of Our Order Confirmation (or as otherwise agreed or specified as under sub-Clause 10.1), if any of the following apply you may treat the Contract as being at an end immediately:

9.3.1      We have refused to deliver your Goods; or

9.3.2      In light of all relevant circumstances, delivery within that time period was essential; or

9.3.3      You told Us when ordering the Goods that delivery within that time period was essential.

9.4           If you do not wish to cancel under sub-Clause 9.3 or if none of the specified circumstances apply, you may specify a new (reasonable) delivery date.  If We fail to meet the new deadline, you may then treat the Contract as being at an end.

9.5           You may cancel all or part of your Order under sub-Clauses 9.3 or 9.4 provided that separating the Goods in your Order would not significantly reduce their value.  Any sums that you have already paid for cancelled Goods and their delivery will be refunded to you within 7 days.  Please note that if any cancelled Goods are delivered to you, you must return them to Us or arrange with Us for their collection.  In either case, We will bear the cost of returning the cancelled Goods.

9.6           Delivery shall be deemed complete and the responsibility for the Goods will pass to you once We have delivered the Goods to the address including, where relevant, any alternative address you have provided.

9.7           Ownership of the Goods passes to you once we have received payment in full of all sums due (including any applicable delivery charges).

9.8           Any refunds due under this Clause 9 will be made using the same payment method that you used when ordering the Goods unless you specifically request that We make a refund using a different method.

10.          Faulty, Damaged or Incorrect Goods

10.1        By law, We must provide goods that are of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, as described at the time of purchase, in accordance with any pre-contract information We have provided, and that match any samples or models that you have seen or examined (unless We have made you aware of any differences).  If any Goods you have purchased do not comply and, for example, have faults or are damaged when you receive them, or if you receive incorrect (or incorrectly priced) Goods, please contact Us at info@frescopro.co.uk or on +44 (0)1934 743322 as soon as reasonably possible to inform Us of the fault, damage or error, and to arrange for a refund, repair or replacement.  Your available remedies will be as follows:

10.1.1  Beginning on the day that you receive the Goods (and ownership of them) you have a 30 day right to reject the Goods and to receive a full refund if they do not conform as stated above.

10.1.2  If you do not wish to reject the Goods, or if the 30 day rejection period has expired, you may request a repair of the Goods or a replacement.  We will bear any associated costs and will carry out the repair or replacement within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to you.  In certain circumstances, where a repair or replacement is impossible or otherwise disproportionate, We may instead offer you the alternative (i.e. a replacement instead of a repair or vice versa) or a full refund.  If you request a repair or replacement during the 30 day rejection period, that period will be suspended while We carry out the repair or replacement and will resume on the day that you receive the replacement or repaired Goods.  If less than 7 calendar days remain out of the original period, it will be extended to 7 calendar days.

10.1.3  If, after a repair or replacement, the Goods still do not conform (or if We cannot repair or replace them, as described above, or have failed to act within a reasonable time or without significant inconvenience to you), you may ask Us to attempt the repair or replacement again (you do not have to give Us multiple opportunities to do so if you do not want to), or you have the right either to keep the Goods at a reduced price, or to reject them in exchange for a refund.

10.1.4  If you exercise the final right to reject the goods more than six months after you have received the Goods (and ownership of them), We may reduce any refund to reflect the use that you have had out of the Goods.

10.1.5  Within a period of one year after you have received the Goods (and ownership of them), if the Goods do not last a reasonable length of time, you may be entitled to a partial refund.  Please be aware that after six months have passed since you received the Goods, the burden of proof will be on you to prove that the defect or non-conformity existed at the time of delivery.

10.2        Please note that you will not be eligible to claim under this Clause 10 if We informed you of the fault(s), damage or other problems with the Goods before you purchased them (and it is because of the same issue that you now wish to return them); if you have purchased the Goods for an unsuitable purpose that is neither obvious nor made known to Us and the problem has resulted from your use of the Goods for that purpose; or if the problem is the result of normal wear and tear, misuse or intentional or careless damage.  Please also note that you may not return Goods to Us under this Clause 10 merely because you have changed your mind.  If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to a 14 calendar day cooling-off period, which is further supplemented by Our Goodwill Guarantee, bringing it to a total of 30 calendar days, within which you can return Goods for this reason.  Please refer to Clause 11 for more details.

10.3        To return Goods to Us for any reason under this Clause 10, please contact Us at info@frescopro.co.uk or on +44 (0)1934 743322 to arrange for a collection and return.  We will be fully responsible for the costs of returning Goods under this Clause 10 and will reimburse you where appropriate.

10.4        Refunds (whether full or partial, including reductions in price) under this Clause 10 will be issued within 7 days of the day on which We agree that you are entitled to the refund.

10.5        Any and all refunds issued under this Clause 10 will include all delivery costs paid by you when the Goods were originally purchased.

10.6        Refunds under this Clause 10 will be made using the same payment method that you used when ordering the Goods unless you specifically request that We make a refund using a different method.

10.7        For further information on your rights as a consumer, please contact your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards Office.

11.          Cancelling and Returning Goods if You Change Your Mind

11.1        If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to a “cooling-off” period within which you can cancel the Contract for any reason.  This period begins once your Order is complete and We have sent you your Order Confirmation, i.e. when the Contract between you and Us is formed.  You may also cancel for any reason before We send the Order Confirmation.

11.2.1  If the Goods are being delivered to you in a single instalment (whether single or multiple items), the legal cooling-off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which you (or someone you nominate) receive(s) the Goods.  Our Goodwill Guarantee extends this period to a total of 30 calendar days.

11.2.2  If the Goods are being delivered in separate instalments on separate days, the legal cooling-off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which you (or someone you nominate) receive(s) the final instalment of Goods.  Our Goodwill Guarantee extends this period to a total of 30 calendar days.

11.3        If you wish to exercise your right to cancel under this Clause 11, you must inform Us of your decision within the cooling-off period (as extended by Our Goodwill Guarantee).  You may do so in any way you wish. Cancellation by email or by post is effective from the date on which you send Us your message.  Please note that the cooling-off period lasts for whole calendar days.  If, for example, you send Us an email or letter by 23:59:59 on the final day of the cooling-off period, your cancellation will be valid and accepted.  If you would prefer to contact Us directly to cancel, please use the following details:

11.9.1  The day on which We receive the Goods back; or

11.9.2  If We have not yet provided an Order Confirmation or have not yet dispatched the Goods, the day on which you inform Us that you wish to cancel the Contract.

11.10     Refunds under this Clause 11 may be reduced for any diminished value in the Goods resulting from damage sustained under your ownership.
