If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at (a) to (d) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:

(b)       there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;

These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms.

9.5          (Consumers only) Our goodwill guarantee. Please note, these terms reflect the goodwill guarantee offered by G Barra Limited of Unit 5 Swinstead Close, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, NG8 3JG to its UK customers, which is more generous than your legal rights under the Consumer Contracts Regulations in the ways set out below. This goodwill guarantee does not affect your legal rights in relation to faulty or misdescribed products (see clause 12):

Right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013

How our goodwill guarantee is more generous

14 day period to change your mind.

30 day period to change your mind.

(e)       any products which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery.

9.7          (Consumers only) How long do I have to change my mind? How long you have depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.

In this case you have until 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery to change your mind about the goods.

9.8          Ending the contract where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind. Even if we are not at fault and you do not have a right to change your mind (see clause 9.1), you can still end the contract before it is completed, but you may have to pay us compensation.

(a)       On Arrival. If you notice that the goods, on arrival:

(i)         are faulty; or

(ii)        are damaged; or

(iii)      are not what you ordered; or

(iv)      there are some of the goods or part of the goods missing,

you should either not accept them from the courier or sign the delivery note to indicate the nature of the problem. You should contact us (see clause 12.1) as soon as you become aware of the problem, generally not more than 5 days after delivery to let us know of the problem and we will provide you with a returns label. On receiving the goods back at our warehouse we will inspect the goods to investigate the problem and we may either replace, repair, refund or provide other assistance depending on the circumstances according to these terms and conditions.

(b)       Subsequent to arrival – if there is a problem with the goods. If subsequent to delivery you notice that:

(i)         the goods are faulty; or

(ii)        the goods are damaged; or

(iii)       the goods are not what you ordered; or

(iv)       there are some of the goods or part of the goods missing

you should contact us (see clause 12.1) as soon as you become aware of the problem, generally not more than 5 days after delivery to let us know of the problem and we will provide you with a returns label. On receiving the goods back at our warehouse we will inspect the goods to investigate the problem and we may either replace, repair or provide other assistance depending on the circumstances according to these terms and conditions.

12.4       An important exception to the above. Our returns policy does not cover goods which are faulty or damaged when the fault or damage is caused by you. This covers situations where:

(a)       you have not followed the instructions for use as displayed on our website under the ‘Product Details’ ‘Wash & Care’ section;

(b)       you have not followed the instructions for use as detailed on the tags/labels attached to our products when delivered to you;

(c)       you have used the goods and they have become ripped or torn as result of that use;

(d)       you have altered or attempted to repair the goods;

(e)       such fault or damage is as a result of fair wear and tear, wilful damage or unusual storage conditions.

13.          Price and payment

13.1       Where to find the price for the product. The prices of the product (inclusive of VAT for products where VAT applies) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. The checkout page on our website includes a breakdown of the VAT applicable to the relevant product. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 13.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.

13.2       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 product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

13.3       What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product'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 product'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 contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

13.4       When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment through Stripe Inc.

You must pay for the products when your order is placed.

13.5       What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know.

14.          Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you

14.1       We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

14.2       Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you if you are a business customer. Subject to clause 14.3:

(a)       we shall not be liable to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, for any loss of profit, or any indirect or consequential loss arising under or in connection with any contract between us; and

(b)       our total liability to you for all other losses arising under or in connection with any contract between us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall be limited to 100% of the total sum paid by you for the product(s) under the contract.

14.3       We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products as summarised at clause 12 .

14.4       We are not liable for business losses. If you are a consumer, we only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose (even where you are a business) we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

14.5       Use of goods within the UK. We do not warrant that the Goods comply with the laws, regulations or standards outside of the UK.

14.6       Except as expressly stated in these Terms, we do not give any representations, warranties or undertakings in relation to the Goods. Any representation, condition or warranty which might be implied or incorporated into these Terms by statute, common law or otherwise is excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. In particular, we will not be responsible for ensuring that the Goods are suitable for your purposes.

15.          How we may use your personal information

15.1       How we may use your personal information. We will only use your personal information as set out in our [LINK TO PRIVACY POLICY].

16.          Other important terms

16.1       We may transfer this agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.

16.2       You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else (except that you can always transfer our guarantee). You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing. However, you may transfer our guarantee at clause 9.5 to a person who has acquired the product. We may require the person to whom the guarantee is transferred to provide reasonable evidence that they are now the owner of the relevant item or property.

16.3       Nobody else has any rights under this contract (except someone you pass your guarantee on to). This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, except as explained in clause 16.2 in respect of our guarantee. Neither of us will need to get the agreement of any other person in order to end the contract or make any changes to these terms.

16.4       If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

16.5       Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.

16.6       Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.
