Shopping with us

We will treat each order for goods as an offer by you to purchase the goods in accordance with these terms and conditions.

No order submitted by you is accepted by us until we confirm by e-mail its acceptance. No contract shall exist between you and us until we confirm our acceptance of your order in this way. Please note that our acknowledgement of receipt of your order is not necessarily acceptance of your order. If we accept your order the acknowledgement of receipt will indicate this clearly.

We reserve the right to place restrictions on the volume of any goods ordered.

All product descriptions and content on our website or otherwise issued by us are intended merely to present a general idea of the goods sold by us. If you require any further details, please contact us by e-mail, providing details of the additional information needed. However, if you buy goods which are faulty or not as described on the website, we will deal with them in accordance with our returns policy.

Price

The price and availability of the goods is identified on the relevant page detailing the goods at the time you place your order.

The goods will only be owned by you once we have received payment in full.

We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the goods advised to you is correct. However, it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the goods we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the good’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the good’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, 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 order/contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

We accept payment by credit and debit card only. You must pay for the goods in full before we dispatch them.

We will only charge your credit or debit card and deduct payment when we despatch goods to you.

The goods will only be despatched once payment for those goods has been received by us in full. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the goods, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the goods in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

UK Orders

The price for calendars delivered within the UK is inclusive of all and any applicable duty, tax and shipping costs.

Non UK/International Orders

The price for each product shown for all non-UK orders does not include any import duty, tax, vat or any specific country costs.

Customers / Recipients (excluding the UK) are directly responsible for any Import Duty/Tax in their respective countries at the purchase price shown for each product. Unfortunately, we cannot advise you what the Duty/Customs costs will be - please consult your local customs office for more information. Please note that these products will NOT be declared as gift items on the customs declaration.

Delivery outside the UK may be subject to customs, VAT or local sales taxes, which are your responsibility where they apply. If so, the shipping company should contact you once your package has arrived at customs to let you know the charge due, or else you should consult your local customs office. Unfortunately, we cannot advise you what these charges will be and Hallmark Consumer Services Ltd is not responsible for them.

For the avoidance of doubt, Hallmark is not importing the goods into any non UK countries and it is the customer who is considered to be the importer of these goods.

Confirmation that you understand the terms of purchase and liability of any country specific costs associated with delivery will form part of your on-line order, if you do not agree with these terms, please leave the site.

Postage and Packaging

All prices shown are including postage and packaging for UK orders only.

All prices shown are excluding postage and packaging for non-UK orders. The total price at checkout will show the post and packaging charges separately for non-UK Orders, and those charges must be paid in addition to the price for the goods.

Currency

All payments to us are to be made in pounds Sterling.

Shipping

You must ensure that you complete our order form so as to give us all necessary information to enable us to deliver the goods.

We will deliver the goods within a maximum of 30 days beginning with the day following that on which you submit your order to us (unless you and we agree otherwise or you exercise your right to cancel our agreement before we arrange delivery and/or performance).

As soon as we have delivered the goods to you, you will be responsible for them, including any damage that may occur to them.

Goods on receipt
