The price of any products will be as quoted on the Website from time to time, except in cases of obvious error or technical difficulties or problems. Prices are given in pounds sterling (£) and all items include VAT or like taxes if and where applicable, with the exception of our carrier oils which are VAT exempt, but prices exclude delivery costs which may be specified individually in each of our offers or as outlined and detailed within our delivery / shipping & handling section. Customs duties, import duties and related taxes are also excluded (see ‘Customs’ below for further information).


We may modify or amend our prices from time to time, including where applicable and necessary according to economic circumstances or other external factors. Such changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you an order confirmation email. If you we change our prices between the time when you place an order and the time when we send you an order confirmation email then we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions to confirm the new price before dispatching the product or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.


Non-business customers very rarely need a tax invoice and the tax charged will vary according to the precise detail of your order including your delivery address so we do not provide a tax invoice as standard with any orders. The prices displayed at checkout or in email order confirmations are not tax invoices. If you need a tax invoice please contact us and we will be happy to produce one for you.


Our Website contains a large number of products and it is always possible that despite our best efforts and due diligence, some of the products listed on our Website may be incorrectly priced or presented. If a product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our Website, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions to confirm the difference before dispatching the product or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.


We are under no obligation to provide the product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you an order confirmation email if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as an incorrect pricing error.

Our Warranties and Liability to you

We warrant to you that any product purchased from us through the Website is of satisfactory quality and reasonably fit for all the purposes for which products of a similar kind are commonly supplied.

However, 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. Loss or damage is not foreseeable if it was not obvious or if neither of us knew that it might happen. 


We only supply the products for domestic and private use and we are not liable for any business losses. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any: (i) loss of income or revenue (ii) loss of business or business opportunity (iii) loss of profits or contracts (iv) loss of anticipated savings (v) business interruption or (vi) waste of management or office time.
