7. Changing your mind

7.3 If You cancel an Order after the Goods have been delivered, You will be charged the actual cost of collecting them. Because We may subsidise Our Delivery charge when We initially Deliver the Goods to You, the actual cost of collection may be more than You paid for the Delivery.

If the Goods have missing manuals, accessories, free items or any other components, We shall charge You the cost of these missing items. These costs will be deducted from any refund that is due to You.

Goods made to Your personal requirements;
DVDs, CDs, computer/console games, software, minidiscs or memory cards where the seal has been broken;

13. General

13.1 Sometimes, there might be things that we can't control that may mean We're delayed in, or prevented from, Delivering Your Goods. These might include things such as accidents, breakdowns, fire, flood, storm, acts of God, war, riot, civil commotion, malicious damage or the default of our suppliers. We will try to put things right as soon as we can but as you’d expect, we can't be responsible where this causes a delay or failure in Delivering Your Goods. However, we will try to give You as much notice as possible.
13.2 The Contract sets out everything we've agreed about Delivery of the Goods (and anything else mentioned in the Contract) and supercedes any previous agreement we might have discussed or entered in relation to the Contract. Because the Contract contains everything we've both agreed, neither of us relies on any other statement, representation, warranty or understanding made during the discussions leading up to the Order. As you’d expect, this won't apply if either of us has been fraudulent.
13.3 If either of us decides not to enforce our rights (or we delay in doing so), that won't stop us from enforcing those rights at a later stage.
13.4 This Contract is just between the two of us. Accordingly, nobody else has any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce the terms of this Contract.
13.5 The Goods are only intended for normal domestic use by you as a consumer and not for resale or any kind of industrial or commercial use.
13.6 If either of us wants to change any part of the Contract, then we'll have to ask the other one and note down any agreed change in writing.
13.7 Because Your Premises is in the United Kingdom and We’re based in the United Kingdom, This Contract is covered by English law. In the highly unlikely event of any court action relating to the Contract, we have both agreed that this should take place in the English Courts.
