However please see condition 4 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Goods and/or Tours that you order.
We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the Goods and/or Tours, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Goods and/or Tours in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
Delivery charges. The prices of the Goods do not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process before you confirm your order. To check relevant delivery charges, please refer to our Delivery Charges.
What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Goods and/or Tours we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Goods’ and/or Tours’ correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Goods’ correct price and/or Tours’ correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the Contract, refund you any sums that you have paid and require the return of any Goods provided to you.
- HOW TO PAY
