2. Defective products

We will try our best to ensure that the products we deliver to you are of a high quality,  and in good working order and without defects.

What is a defect? A defect is a material imperfection in the manufacture of a product or any characteristic of a product, which makes the product less acceptable than one would reasonably be entitled to expect in the circumstances.

The following will NOT be regarded as defects and will not entitle you to a return under this section:

2.1 Faults resulting from normal wear and tear.

2.2 Damage arising from negligence, user abuse or incorrect usage of the product.

2.3 Damage arising from electrical surges or sea air corrosion.

2.4 Damage arising from a failure to adequately care for the product.

2.5 Damage arising from unauthorized alterations to the product.

2.6 Where the specifications of a product, although accurately described on the Website and generally fit for its intended purpose, do not suit you.

3. Standard Warranty

If you have received a product which turns out to be defective or otherwise of poor quality (save for direct warranty products), please notify us as soon as reasonably possible after you become aware of the defect or poor quality, but in any event within 6 months after delivery / collection of the product (except in the case of an extended supplier warranty, which is set out below).

You can do so by notifying us via email, and we will arrange to collect the product from you at no charge. Once we have inspected the product and validated your return, we will at your choice repair / replace the product (if such repair is possible / we have the same product in stock to use as a replacement) or credit your account with the purchase price of the product (or refund you if that is your preference). If the repair / replacement takes longer than 21 days, we will get in touch with you to see if you would rather receive a credit / refund.
