Before production
You may cancel your order for goods at any time before we begin production. If you cancel before production begins, we will refund you in full.

Once production of your goods has begun, you cannot cancel your order. This is because our goods are custom-made to your specifications. This does not affect your statutory rights if goods are faulty or not as described.

If you discover a defect in goods after delivery, you must inform us in writing as soon as reasonably practicable. We will, at our option, repair or replace the defective goods, or refund the price of the defective goods in full.
This warranty does not apply to damage caused by normal wear and tear, wilful damage, negligence, abnormal storage or working conditions, failure to follow our care instructions, or misuse.
9. Refund/replacement of goods
If goods are faulty, damaged, or not as described, we will offer you a replacement or a full refund. You must contact us within a reasonable time of discovering the issue and provide photographic evidence where appropriate.
Refunds will be processed within 14 days of our agreement to provide a refund, using the same payment method you used for the original purchase.

The price of goods and services will be the price indicated on our website at the time you submit your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices shown are correct at the time of publication.
Payment methods
We accept payment by Mastercard, Visa, and PayPal. All payment transactions are processed securely.

Prices are displayed and payable in EUR, USD, or GBP depending on your location and preferences.
Tax and VAT
All prices are exclusive of VAT unless otherwise stated. If VAT is applicable, it will be added to your order at the current rate at checkout. Business customers in the EU may be required to account for VAT under the reverse charge mechanism.
Pricing errors
It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the goods or services on our website may be incorrectly priced. If we discover a pricing error, we will contact you to inform you of the correct price. You may then decide whether you wish to proceed with the order at the correct price or cancel.
Set-off
We may at any time, without notice to you, set off any liability of yours to us against any liability of ours to you, whether either liability is present or future, liquidated or unliquidated, and whether or not either liability arises under these terms.
Late payment
If you do not make any payment to us by the due date, we may charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 8% per annum above the Bank of England's base rate from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment, whether before or after judgment.
12. Referral of new clients
We operate a referral programme. If you refer a new client to us who places an order, we will credit your account with 10% of the value of the new client's purchases during their first year as a customer.
Referral credits have a 36-month expiry from the date they are credited to your account. Credits cannot be exchanged for cash and can only be used against future orders with us.
Abuse of referral programme
We reserve the right to cancel or modify referral credits if we reasonably believe the referral programme is being abused, manipulated, or used in bad faith. This includes, but is not limited to, self-referrals, fake accounts, and any activity designed to exploit the programme.

If a court or regulator finds any provision of these terms is unlawful, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking these terms, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us from taking steps against you at a later date.

If such modification is not possible, the relevant provision shall be deemed deleted. Any modification or deletion of a provision shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of these terms.
