These terms and conditions are written in accordance with the
UK Distance Selling Regulations 2000. Such terms relate only to
business done with Retail Customers. They do not cover business
to business selling.
Contract
The contract will be deemed to be completed when the customer
receives an email confirming the goods ordered, the prices, the
delivery arrangements and the total cost including taxes. The
order will be deemed to be complete when the email is sent whether
it is received or not. This will be done by at least the time
the order is received by the customer.
All orders will be completed within 30 days wherever possible.
Should the order not be completed within 30 days then the customer
has the right to cancel the order without charges. During the
placing of the order the customer will be made aware of the normal
stock status of the parts being ordered. In the event of items
not being in stock, the customer can choose to take what is in
stock at once, with a further shipment when back-ordered items
come in, or wait for the back ordered items to come in and have
all parts shipped together when available.
No substitute goods will be sent automatically to the customer
but a salesman may offer substitute goods which the customer can
decide whether to accept or not. This acceptance must be in writing.
Prices quoted will be honoured for seven days. Once an order
has been placed the price will remain valid for 30 days. All unavoidable
changes in pricing will be communicated to the customer for acceptance
or refusal before parts are shipped. This includes carriage charges.
Cancellations and returns
The customer has seven working days from goods receipt to decide
whether to keep the goods or not. There are certain restrictions
to this rule. For faulty or damaged parts please see separate
section.
The customer must inform David Manners Ltd in writing within
seven working days of goods receipt in writing if he wishes to
cancel the order. This should be done by sending an email to us,
subject matter Order Cancellation or by sending a letter to 991,
Wolverhampton Road, Oldbury, West Midlands, B69 4RJ, ENGLAND.
FAO Returns Dept, Ref web order cancellation. For our e-mail address,
click the 'contact us' button on most pages.
Once the cancellation has been served it is the customers' duty
to restore the goods to David Manners Ltd and in the meantime
to take reasonable care of them so that when they are received
by David Manners Ltd they can be sold again as new. All return
costs are payable by the customer and will in no way be subsidised
by David Manners Ltd. The responsibility to take care of the goods
will continue for up to six months and will be open-ended if within
that period the supplier serves a notice requiring the customer
to hand them over.
If goods are not returned by the customer then the customer must
make them available for collection by David Manners Ltd. Goods
will remain under the customers' care until received and checked
by the Returns Department and deemed fit to be resold as new by
David Manners Ltd. Should the goods be returned in a state unfit
for resale as new then the customer must either have them removed
from the premises of David Manners Ltd or they will be shipped
to the customer at the customers expense within 14 days of the
customer being informed that the goods are not acceptable for
resale. The customer will be informed by email or letter.
If David Manners Ltd receives the goods in a condition that enables
them to be sold again as new then a refund will be issued to the
customer within 30 days of the cancellation being issued.
Restrictions
Specially ordered goods may not be cancelled or returned unless
damaged in transit or faulty. These are ones that have been made
to the customers' specification and include all "made to
order" trim parts and customers own units supplied for reconditioning.
Non-stocked parts which have to be specially ordered are also
non-returnable. Once David Manners Ltd has received the order
a 7 working days cooling off period will be given to the customer
before the order is placed with our supplier. Once the order has
been placed with the supplier the customer cannot cancel the order
and no refund will be given. Should the customer wish to opt out
of the seven day cooling-off period so as not to delay the order,
this must be done in writing.
Damaged goods
Goods that are found to be damaged on receipt must be reported
to David Manners Ltd within 7 working days of receipt. Should
damaged goods be reported after this time then the goods will
not be accepted back for a refund or replacement. These goods
must not be used and should remain in the original packaging wherever
possible. David Manners Ltd will arrange collection of these goods
and refunds will be issued as soon as it is confirmed that the
goods are damaged. It may be necessary for the carriage company
responsible for delivery to the customer to inspect the goods
at the customers' premises or the address to which the goods were
delivered. The customer must make the goods available to the carriage
company, as it may be necessary for a refund.
Warranty
Our guarantee applies only where purchased goods have been used
solely for the intended purpose and have not been used in any
form of motor sport i.e. racing, rallying, or speed trials.
All parts are fully warranted against defects in materials and
workmanship. Warranty will not cover labour, failure of a related
component, failure resulting from faulty installation or misuse.
Liability will not exceed the cost of the original component.
During the warranty period (usually 12 months) please contact
us immediately should any problem occur. We will then advise you,
before replacing the failed component, as to the best course of
action.
With all claims, both a copy of the customer invoice and our
returns form (filled in by yourselves) must be received by us
PRIOR to you returning the parts. We will decide the method of
return freight and will charge it to you, the customer, if the
fault is not ours.
Faulty goods
Faulty goods must be reported to David Manners Ltd as soon as
the fault occurs. These goods must stop being used immediately.
David Manners Ltd will arrange collection of these goods and refunds
will be issued as soon as it is confirmed that the goods are faulty.
This could be up to 30 working days from when David Manners Ltd
receives the goods, as some goods will have to be sent to the
supplier for testing. If replacement goods are required in the
meantime the customer must pay for the goods and shipping in full.
Once confirmation of a fault has been given in writing to David
Manners Ltd then the customer will be refunded in full for the
faulty parts and original shipping. Should the goods be found
to be in perfect working order the customer will not be refunded
and David Manners Ltd reserves the right to charge the customer
for any carriage costs incurred in the collection of the parts
from the customer. The customer will then have the choice to either
have the parts returned to him at his costs or to cancel the parts
at which point the return will be dealt with as a cancelled order.
Delivery
David Manners Ltd will make every attempt to ensure your order
is delivered in the time specified but we cannot be responsible
for the late delivery of parcels by a third party. In particular
letter post cannot be guaranteed. Should there be late delivery
by a courier who gives a promised delivery time, then we will
offer you a good will refund of up to 75% of the carriage costs
invoiced. No compensation will be paid for incidental losses incurred
as a result of late delivery. When a courier is being used for
delivery a signature will be necessary for the goods to be delivered.
Goods cannot be left without such signature and there may be a
further charge if the courier has to return.
Shortages
Shortages must be reported in writing within 7 working days. All
goods should be examined immediately upon receipt for damage or
faults, as your warranty period begins the day of receipt.
Payment
Your credit card will not be debited until the point at which
the order is ready for dispatch apart from specially ordered goods
that cannot be cancelled once ordered (see restrictions).
Payment can be taken from the following credit / debit cards:
Visa / Delta, Mastercard, Maestro / Solo. Postal orders
in pounds sterling or cheques denominated in pounds sterling and
drawn on a UK bank are also acceptable. Should you wish to pay
by bank transfer please contact us by email. Once payment has
cleared goods will be released apart from specially ordered goods.
