These terms of sale apply to all goods supplied by Quaff 2 Ltd., a company registered in England and Wales under company number 07126674 having its registered office at 73 New Church Road, Hove, BN3 2BB. (“the Company”).

No contract exists between you and the Company for the sale of any goods until the Company has received your order together with payment and the Company has accepted your order. Once your payment has been received, the Company will confirm that your order has been accepted by sending an email to you at the email address you provide in your order form. The Company’s acceptance of your order brings into existence a legally binding contract between you and the Company.

The contract is subject to your right of cancellation (see below).

The Company may change these terms of sale without notice to you in relation to future sales.

The description and price of the goods you order will be as shown on the Company’s Website at the time you place your order. The prices shown on the Company’s website are only applicable to sales made through the Company’s website.

The goods are subject to availability. If on receipt of your order the goods you have ordered are not available in stock, the Company will inform you as soon as possible, and refund or recredit you for any sum that has been paid by you or debited from your credit card for the goods.

In addition, in the interests of preventing fraudulent use of credit and charge cards, the Company may validate the names and addresses supplied during the order process against commercially available records (e.g. Electoral Roll data).

If multiple delivery attempts are made to the provided delivery address and a competent recipient is not present to sign for the goods, or no effort is taken by the recipient to contact the courier to arrange re-delivery, the order will be returned to our warehouse.
