Terms and Conditions
Statutory Rights
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall affect your statutory rights under the law of England.
Payment
You can pay for your purchases either by credit or debit card
If you choose to pay by credit card then the details of your card number will be securely encrypted before they are transmitted over the Internet or stored on our computers. This makes your card details completely undecipherable by anyone except us. And as soon as the order has been processed, your card details are automatically deleted from our computer.
Title to Goods
and you retains full title to all goods supplied until paid for in full. In the event of the customer's insolvency and you reserves the right to reclaim goods for which full payment has not been made.
VAT and other taxes
All prices are shown including VAT where applicable. Books and sheet music are zero-rated for VAT in the UK; most other items are rated at 17½%.
Delivery and Carriage
We will deliver your goods normally within 3 or 4 days if in stock, or normally within one week if not. If you need delivery by a certain time please state this on your order and we will do our best to accommodate you. For details of our carriage arrangements and charges please click here.
Returns and Cancellation
If the goods you receive are faulty please return them to us in their original condition within 10 days and we will either repair or replace them, or refund the cost of the goods.
If the goods you receive are not what you ordered please return them to us in their original condition within 10 days and we will either replace them with the goods you ordered, or refund the cost of the goods and carriage.
In addition to the above, you may in most cases return any goods within seven working days of receipt without giving any reason. However there are a few unavoidable exceptions to this, as follows:
- Sealed audio or video recordings and computer software cannot be returned unless returned still sealed.
- For reasons of hygiene we cannot accept returns of reeds, mouthpieces, microphones, wind and brass instruments and other similar items, unless returned unopened in their original packaging.
- Strings must still be as new, in their original envelopes, and must not have been wound onto an instrument.
- Digital pianos, electronic keyboards, amplifiers, drum kits and all other similar products can normally only be returned if they have not been removed from their original packaging and/or assembled, since assembly and disassembly makes these items very obviously "used".
Please call us before returning any goods.
If you choose to return any goods you must ensure that the goods are properly packaged and sent at your cost by a secure carrier: it is your responsibility to take reasonable care to ensure that they reach us undamaged. If you do not pay for the cost of return then we may deduct the cost of retrieving the goods from any refund due to you in respect of the order. We recommend that you use an insured service for all returns.
If a refund is due to you it will be made expeditiously and within 30 days.
Non-delivery of goods
If your goods are not delivered to you within 14 days of the despatch date you must notify us immediately, otherwise we cannot accept responsibility for the lost goods. You will be notified of the despatch date by e-mail shortly after we have received your order.
Damage in transit
Any claim arising from damage in transit must be made to and you within 3 days of receipt of the goods. Please check the cases and contents immediately upon receipt, and before signing for them. Goods seen to be damaged should be refused, or if kept should be signed "Damaged in transit" and packaging materials must be preserved for inspection.
Damaged goods must be reported immediately and within 3 days of delivery otherwise and you cannot accept responsibility.
