EXCEPTIONS TO THE RETURNS POLICY
SPECIAL ORDERS
Special orders include items not in stock or made-to-order, are not covered by our normal terms and conditions. Any item not in stock or made-to-order will be indicated as such on our website, prior to check-out; or by a staff member if placing the order in-store or by telephone.
Your cancellation of a special order for any reason, deems it unlikely that we could sell it to another customer, so they may not be returned or exchanged unless faulty.
The lead time for made-to-order items is normally 4-6 weeks but during peak periods this may differ and as production is out of our control, unfortunately dates cannot be guaranteed.
Cancellation fees may still apply even if the order is still in production.
EX-DISPLAY ITEMS
Ex-display items, are products that have been used by us to promote sales either inside our store, or in our show garden. Expect them to have been inspected by other customers, sat on, leant against or showcased with another product e.g., a plant inside a pot or, other non-specific wear-and-tear.
These items are shown in their own section on our website or will be obviously marked as such in-store. Once you have paid for the item, either in-person or online, you are then committed to its purchase with no return possible.
By placing an order with Garden & Terrace you will be deemed to have read and agreed to these terms and conditions.

If you wish to exercise your right to cancel this contract prior to order despatch, please contact us by phone on 020 3598 5096 or by email at sales@gardenandterrace.co.uk. Please note however that we do require written confirmation of this cancellation. If your order has already been despatched please follow the procedure set out in our Returns policy.

DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCTS AND COLOUR MATCH
Each Product purchased is sold subject to its description which sets out additional specific conditions related to that product including, without limitation, terms and conditions concerning estimated delivery dates and times, warranties, after-sales service and guarantees.
We will take all reasonable care to ensure that all details, descriptions, colours (due to the constraints of digital reproduction on different web browsers and devices, we cannot guarantee exact colour depiction) and prices of products appearing on the website are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system.
We are not infallible and although we aim to keep the Website as up to date as possible, the information including descriptions appearing on this website at a particular time may not always reflect the position precisely at the moment you place an order. We cannot confirm the price of a Product until your order is accepted in accordance with our Order acceptance policy.
PAYMENT
All prices are inclusive of VAT (where applicable) at the current rates and are correct at the time of entering the information onto the system. The total cost of your order is the price of the Products ordered plus delivery charges as set out in the Delivery section of this Website. Payment can be made by any of the methods specified in the Payment section of this Website and payment will be debited and cleared from your account as set out in the Payment section of this Website.
You confirm that the credit/debit/store card or PayPal account that is being used is yours or you are an authorised user.
All credit/debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to or does not, for any reason, authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.
REFUSAL OF TRANSACTION
We reserve the right to withdraw any Products from this Website at any time and/or remove or edit any materials or content on this Website. We may refuse to process a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion.

RETURNS
If the goods are faulty or not as described, you can reject the goods within 14 days of delivery unless the expected life of the goods is shorter. If you ask for a repair or replacement within the 14 days, the period is paused so that you have the remainder of the seven day period to check whether the repair or replacement is satisfactory and to decide whether to reject the goods. You can cancel your order by email or in writing.
Returns should be made in the original, undamaged packaging, and we reserve the right to withhold a percentage of the refund value of returned goods if the product or packaging is in such a condition that the item needs to be reduced in price for resale by us.
Please note that we do not typically sell off goods damaged in this way and therefore in the event of packaging that is essential to the product presentation, the percentage reduction could be significant - although no larger than replacement packaging if available to us.
It is essential that you take reasonable care in the return of the goods. Anything in plastic wrapping can be classed as consumed if the wrapping has been removed unnecessarily and therefore may not be eligible for a refund. The cost of returning the unwanted items remains with the customer.
Once we have received the returned goods, we will refund the item(s) and standard UK shipping costs within 14 days. If you have opted for an additional delivery service, then you will only be entitled to a refund equal to the standard delivery charge.
If you choose to replace or reject your goods and the defect was discovered within 3 months of delivery, it is assumed that the fault was there at the time of delivery unless proven otherwise. If more than 3 months have passed, it is your responsibility to prove that the defect was there at the time of delivery.
SPECIAL ORDERS/EXCLUDED RETURNS ITEMS

Any item not in stock or made-to-order will be indicated as such on our website, prior to check-out; or by a staff member if placing the order in-store or by telephone.
Your cancellation of a special order for any reason, deems it unlikely that we could sell it to another customer, so they may not be returned or exchanged unless faulty.
These items will be shown as such when you purchase on-line or you will be told that they need to be ordered in for you, if purchasing in-store.
