Terms & Conditions of Supply of Goods

These terms and conditions apply to all goods you buy from us at a distance. We have written them in plain English to make sure that you fully understand your rights as one of our valued customers. Your order is subject to these terms and conditions, so it is important that you read them carefully.

We do not seek in any way to limit your statutory rights as a consumer in any way in these terms and conditions, nor to limit our liability for any death or personal injury resulting from negligence on our part.

1. DEFINITIONS
We use the following defined terms throughout these terms and conditions to avoid repeating ourselves and to make them easier for you to read and understand:
'Goods' means the curtains, blinds or other window furnishings / products supplied by us which are the subject of your Order.
'Order' means an order made by you for the supply of Goods.
'Order Form' means our on-line ordering process, in particular the final page in this process where you can check your Order before clicking 'Order'.
'Price' means the price of the Goods, plus any delivery charges.
'Sales Literature' means all brochures, drawings, descriptive matter, specifications and websites used by us to advertise and promote the Goods.
'you' means the person ordering Goods from us.
'we' means www.sixfabrics.com (a trading name of our corporate entity, details of which are here "us" and "our" shall be construed accordingly.

2. ORDERING
2.1 Our Sales Literature invites you to order goods from us generally via an Order Form.
2.2 Once you complete the Order Form or confirm to us conclusively in some other fashion from a distance (eg. fax or phone) that you wish to proceed with your Order we will provide you with an acknowledgement of order by email. This email does not necessarily constitute our acceptance of your Order – this may come in a later email - so read its terms clearly.
2.3 Once we tell you by email that we have accepted your Order a binding contract for the supply of Goods exists between us (a 'Contract'). If we fail to confirm our acceptance of your Order in an email for any reason, our acceptance will be deemed to have occurred when we dispatch the Goods to you.
2.4 Our respective cancellation rights are outlined at conditions 4 and 5.

3. PRICE AND PAYMENT
3.1 The Price will be the price shown on the Order Form and will include all taxes applicable from time to time.
3.2 Payment is due at the time of Order and we will debit the Price from your debit or credit card accordingly if you have supplied us with your card details. Payments by cheque are not deemed to have been made until the cheque has cleared.

4. CANCELLATIONS BY YOU
4.1 When purchasing 'off the shelf' goods from a distance you have the right to cancel your order up to 7 days from the receipt of the goods (the 'Cooling-off Period') by giving us written notice. All poles, tracks and other fixings are 'off the shelf' items unless they are advertised to the contrary.
4.2 By ordering any 'made to measure' items, however, you hereby agree to waive your rights to cancel the contract during the Cooling-off Period once we have commenced the production process. We require you to do this because the items we make specifically for you are unlikely to be re-sellable to others. It gives us the confidence to proceed with the production of your Order before the end of the Cooling-off Period without fear of it being cancelled after we have made the Goods. 'Made to measure' goods include all blinds, curtains and shutters sold through the website unless they are advertised to the contrary.
4.3 Whilst you have waived certain rights as set out in condition 4.2, we do still want to be entirely reasonable with you. If you have changed your mind before your Goods have been dispatched please contact us as soon as possible, as we may still be able to halt the production process and refund you what you have paid less whatever costs we have already incurred in processing and manufacturing your Order, but cannot guarantee it.
4.4 If you do wish to cancel a relevant contract under condition 4.1, you are entirely responsible for the cost of returning the items to us and you must ensure that they are kept in 'as new' condition. Please ask us if you have any questions regarding how the items should be packaged and returned. We will refund the Price to you as soon as reasonably possible after cancellation under condition 4.1, and in any event within 30 days of notice of cancellation.

5. CANCELLATION BY US
5.1 We reserve the right to cancel the Contract or decline your Order if:
5.1.1 we have insufficient stock of the fabric or product required to manufacture and/or supply the Goods;
5.1.2 any of the Goods were listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or an error in the pricing information made by us and/or received by us from our suppliers;
5.1.3 if you are not ordering from the UK.
5.2 Before cancelling your Order we will do our best to source and offer you suitable alternative goods, but you are not obliged to accept them.
5.3 If we do cancel your Order we will notify you as soon as possible and will re-credit to you any monies you have already paid us relating to your Order within 30 days of your Order. Although we appreciate that you may be disappointed in such circumstances but we will not be able to offer you any compensation for disappointment you may suffer.

6.2 Whilst every effort is made by us to ensure that Goods sold and delivered to you match in every respect any sample or description we may have shown or given or sent to you, minor or immaterial variation or change in colour or pattern between the sample or description and the Goods delivered shall not entitle you to reject the Goods nor to claim any compensation for such variation or change.

7. MEASUREMENT
7.1 It is very important that the measurements you provide us with are accurate. We are sure you will understand that we cannot accept the return of the Goods if the measurements you have provided us are incorrect as we are unlikely to be able to resell them.
