You must also pay the cost of returning the goods and this is non-refundable. If you are unable to return the goods yourselves, we can arrange for this to be done on your behalf, normally within 5-7 days at a cost of £5.95. This charge reflects the cost of collection. Under the Distance selling directive you as the customer have a duty of care for the product whilst it is in your possession. If you fail to take reasonable care of the goods whilst in your possession and this results in damage or deterioration; or if parts (including packaging) are missing, we reserve the right to charge you for this. This cancellation policy does not affect your legal rights if for example the goods are misdescribed or faulty.
