Our contract with you

These Terms and the Order Confirmation together set out the whole Contract between the Customer and Guinot. If any of these Terms is inconsistent with any term of the Order Confirmation, then the Order Confirmation shall prevail.
A contract for the sale and purchase of Goods on these Terms shall become binding on you and us when we send you the Order Confirmation.
You must check that the Order Confirmation is complete and accurate and inform us immediately of any discrepancy as we will not be responsible for any errors in your Order.
If you place an order on behalf of someone else, you confirm to us that you have all necessary authority to do so. You must not impersonate any other person or use a false name or a name that you are not authorised to use. We may require confirmation from the account holder of your authority, which may include limits on your purchasing authority.

Purchase and availability of goods

All Goods are offered subject to availability.
In order to place an Order, you will need to create an account with us on our website, please click here.
When you have placed an Order, we will acknowledge it by email. This acknowledgment does not, however, mean that your Order has been accepted by us.
We will only issue the Order Confirmation if the Goods are in stock or on order from our supplier. It occasionally happens that Goods are or become unavailable for reasons outside our control. If this happens, we will inform you if this means that delivery of any of the Goods will be delayed or has become impossible. If delivery has become impossible:
1. we will do our best to offer you an acceptable substitute for the same or better standard and price which you can choose to accept or reject;
2. we shall otherwise have no legal responsibility to you other than to make a refund or credit as appropriate.

Price of the Goods

All prices are in pounds sterling (£) (or if you are located in the Republic of Ireland in euro (€)) and include VAT at the applicable rate, but exclude delivery charges.
The current list prices of the Goods we offer, details of our charges for delivery, and the current rates of any applicable UK or Irish customs duty, excise duty and VAT are published on our website, please click here. If a product is not listed, please contact us to check its availability and price.
The contract price of the Goods, inclusive of any applicable UK or Irish customs duty, excise duty and VAT payable and any applicable delivery charges, will be as set out in the Order Confirmation.
We reserve the right to change our prices. No such changes will affect orders in respect of which we have already issued an Order Confirmation.
We use all reasonable efforts to ensure that the prices shown on our website are accurate. However, errors may sometimes occur. If we discover an error in the price of a product, we shall be under no obligation to accept or fulfil an order at the incorrect price and reserve the right to cancel the order and refund you the price paid even after we have issued an Order Confirmation.

Payment methods

Our standard policy is to process payment at the time of ordering. If we cannot supply you with the Goods that you ordered but you have already paid for them we will refund you as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days.
We accept Visa, Mastercard and Switch/Maestro although we do not accept Amex.
We will do all that we reasonably can to ensure that all of the information you give us when paying for the Goods is secure by using an encrypted secure payment mechanism. Subject to clause 10.2, in the absence of negligence on our part, any failure by us to comply with the Contract or our Privacy Policy (see clause 11) or breach by us of our duties under applicable laws we will not be legally responsible to you for any loss that you may suffer if a third party gains unauthorised access to any information that you give us.

Delivery of Goods

Where we have sent to you an Order Confirmation, we will make every effort to deliver the Goods to you:
1. two Business Days after you place an Order, if you place an Order before 11am on a Business Day; or
2. within three Business Days if you place an Order on a Business Day on or after 11am; or
3. within two Business Days of the next Business Day following the day on which you place an Order, if you place an Order on a day other than a Business Day,

as long as you are located in the mainland United Kingdom (other than the Scottish Highlands, or Northern Ireland where delivery will take longer) or the Republic of Ireland. In the event of any unforeseen delay outside of our control, we will inform you of the delay, the reason for it, and of the revised estimated delivery date in writing or by telephone. This will not affect your right to cancel the Contract.

You will receive an email from our delivery partner with a tracking number when the Goods have been dispatched by us.
If we are not able to deliver the whole of the Order at one time due to operational reasons or shortage of stock, we may elect to deliver it in instalments. We will not make any additional delivery charges for this. If you ask us to deliver the Order in instalments, we may apply additional delivery charges for each instalment. Each instalment shall be subject to these Terms.
If a scheduled delivery fails to arrive by the latest estimated date, please advise us by telephone or in writing as soon as reasonably possible and in any event within seven (7) days of the estimated delivery date.
Delivery of the Goods will be completed when we or our delivery partner acting on our behalf deliver the Goods to the delivery address provided by you when you placed the Order and as stated in the Order Confirmation. You may be asked to provide a form of ID (passport or photocard driving licence) so that we or our delivery partner can identify you for the purposes of confirming delivery.
If nobody is available to take delivery of the Goods, please contact us by telephone (using the above contact details).
We will not be responsible for any loss you suffer, including in respect of damage to the Goods, as a result of you instructing us to deliver the Goods to an address different to that stated in the Order Confirmation or for complying with your delivery instructions in respect of where to deliver the Goods at the address provided by you.
