Changing your mind: the 7-day cooling-off period
Because you bought from us online, section 44 of the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act (ECT Act) gives you a cooling-off period.
- You can cancel your order for any reason within 7 days after you receive it.
- You don't have to give a reason, and there's no penalty.
- We'll refund the full amount you paid, within 30 days of the date you cancel.
- The only cost you may have to pay is the direct cost of sending the piece back to us.
Please send the piece back in the condition you received it, in its box if you still have it.

Faulty pieces: your 6-month guarantee
Under sections 55 and 56 of the Consumer Protection Act (CPA), everything you buy from us comes with an implied warranty of quality for 6 months after delivery. Your piece should be free of defects, work as it should and be reasonably durable.
If a piece is faulty within 6 months of delivery:
- you can return it without penalty, and we cover the risk and cost of the return
- you choose whether we repair it, replace it or refund you
- if we repair it and the same fault, or a new one, appears within 3 months of the repair, we'll replace it or refund you
Our own 6-month fault guarantee gives you the same cover, with no forms to fill in. Just email us.
What isn't a fault
The guarantee doesn't cover normal wear over time, or damage from accidents or misuse. Following our care guide helps your piece last.
