TERMS OF TRADING

Please note that customers purchasing from our retail showroom should refer to in store terms of trading. We reserve the right to alter the terms of trading from time to time.

My Account

My Account allows you to save your details for a faster checkout. From time to time we may also send you promotional offers and details.

Our Contract with you

When you place an order, you are offering to buy the product(s) from us and we will send you an order acknowledgement. However, your order will only be accepted by us once your product(s) have been delivered to you or collected by you. Until then we can decline to supply the goods – we will try to ensure that this never happens but we do, however, reserve the right not to fulfil your order for any reason if, for example, we have made an error on the price. In these circumstances we will refund you any price you’ve paid to us. Please note that we reserve the right not to accept an order for any reason and we won’t be liable to you or anyone else in these circumstances.

Pricing & Payment

Payments can be made by Visa, MasterCard, Maestro cards & PayPal. You can also pay by BACS Transfer prior to delivery. All goods must be paid for in full prior to dispatch from our warehouse. Due to fluctuations in exchange rates, we do not accept payment made by credit or debit cards from foreign banks.

If your billing address and delivery address differ, we may need to validate the information provided with our identity verification partner. You may be contacted if additional information is required. This will help to protect both you and us against fraudulent transactions.

All prices and products quoted are subject to alteration or withdrawal without notice. All Prices include VAT. VAT is charged at the point where a transaction or service is completed. Any variation in the VAT rate will be re-calculated at the tax point.

Availability

All items are subject to availability. We can only guarantee availability while stocks last. If the goods ordered are unavailable, we will contact you and give you the option of a suitable alternative. We will endeavour to deliver goods within the times stated but goods are subject to availability and delay in delivery of goods is sometimes beyond our control. Any delivery dates specified are approximate and we cannot take responsibility for any losses, costs, damages, charges or expenses caused by any delay. Please allow enough time for your items to be delivered before you organise installation, as we cannot be held responsible for out of pocket expenses resulting from delays in delivery. You should ensure that all manufacturer guidelines are complied with in the siting and use of the goods.

Terms Of Sale

Please note that all goods are supplied on a sold as seen basis.

Settlement Within 30 Days

All items and services must be paid for in full within 30 days of purchase and prior to delivery. Terms are strictly nett. Goods not paid for within 30 days will be returned to stock and the deposit will be forfeited.

Cancellation

If The Appliance Outlet agree to the cancellation of an order, a minimum 10% cancellation fee will be payable on the full order value to cover administration costs.

Delivery

We hold thousands of items in stock for quick delivery, most of which are available for next day delivery. Our delivery timescale for stock items to most UK postcodes is 1-5 working days. Occasionally we have to order items from the manufacturer, which can extend the delivery to 5-7 working days. If there are any unforeseen delays, we will be in touch by phone or e-mail to keep you informed. Feel free to contact our sales team to discuss availability prior to placing your order.

We have our own fleet of vehicles operating a ground floor delivery service within 30 miles of our stores and we work closely with a number of excellent transport companies for deliveries outside of this area. Please check the dimensions of the product you plan to purchase to ensure that it fits in the space/unit where you plan to site it.

Please help us – Let us know if delivery access is restricted due to any of the following:

• Parking permits

Although we try to ensure any specified delivery times are adhered to, we are not in control of traffic and cannot be held responsible for unseen delays that may occur. Therefore, any delivery times given are only approximate. 

In line with Company policy, deliveries are made to customer’s door only. Our delivery persons will be only too pleased to assist you further on the full understanding that any damage to your property or injuries incurred will be the sole responsibility of your good self.

All Goods & Services must be paid for prior to delivery. We will not accept payment of any kind at point of delivery. If you require any additional products or services these will need to be organised and paid for in store at least 24 hours before your arranged date.
