Sale Terms & Conditions

Who We Are

We are Ransomspares.co.uk Limited. Our company information is at the end of this document.

What This Is All About

These are our terms and conditions which apply when you buy any goods via this site. (Separate terms apply to use of our site.) We’ve tried to make them user-friendly. Please read them carefully and save a copy as we don’t file a copy specifically for the transaction with you. They are available in English only.

Consumers – Definition

Where we refer to “Consumer” below we mean an individual acting for purposes which are wholly or mainly outside that person’s trade, business, craft or profession.

Who Can Buy on Our Site

You are not allowed to buy any goods via this site if your main purpose is to use them to infringe our intellectual property or other legal rights.

Where you communicate with us on behalf of a company / organisation, you promise that you have authority to act on behalf of that entity.

Changing These Terms and Conditions

We may change these terms and conditions at any time. Please check them carefully as they will apply to anything you buy after the effective date shown at the top.

Important Warnings

The goods we sell via this site are potentially dangerous. It is your responsibility to ensure that the goods are used only:

1. in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and with all applicable laws and regulations; and
2. by persons with the appropriate level of training, qualifications, skill and experience.

How You Enter a Legal Contract with Us

Your order is an offer to buy from us.

You place your order by using the ordering process on our site. This involves selecting the goods, placing them in the shopping basket and sending your order to us by clicking on the “Pay Now” button. You can check and amend any mistake before making an order by using the change function and/or the internet browser back button.

You must ensure that your order, including delivery address, and any other information you supply to us is correct and that you tell us immediately if there are any changes.

We accept your offer and there is a binding legal contract when we send you a confirmation email. However, we are not obliged to supply any goods which are unavailable, even if we have accepted your offer. If any goods are unavailable, we will notify you of the unavailability as soon as possible and will arrange for a full refund if you have been charged.

Paying Us

The price for the goods you order is as stated on our site at the time you send us your order. Any applicable VAT or sales tax is included in any price shown.

You must pay in advance by one of the payment methods listed on our site. We are entitled not to send you the goods until we have received full payment in cleared funds.

If we charge for delivery, these costs will be shown when you place your order and may depend on the delivery method chosen. NB Any delivery charges don’t include customs or import duties which may be applied to your order by the relevant authorities. We have no control of these and it is your separate responsibility to pay for them. We recommend that you check with your local customs office in advance.

If we have mis-priced any item by mistake, we are not obliged to supply the item at that price provided we tell you before we send it off. If we do, then you can decide if you want to order the item at the right price but, if you do not, we will provide a full refund of any payments already made.

You must contact us immediately with full details if you dispute any payment.

If any amount due to us is unpaid, or unjustifiably charged back, we may end this contract by giving you written notice (including email).

About Discount Codes

We may offer discount codes from time to time. All discount codes refer to the price excluding delivery charges. Such codes may only be applied to purchases made through the account in respect of which the discount code was offered and registered and are not transferrable or redeemable for cash. Unless otherwise stated: codes (1) are only available for future new orders placed online; (2) cannot be used retrospectively; (3) can only be redeemed once per customer; and (4) expire after 12 months. You cannot use more than one discount code per transaction unless we state otherwise; if we do so, the order in which the codes are to be applied is in our sole discretion.

We reserve the right to reject any discount code if we consider that it is being used in breach of these terms. Discount codes are subject to any additional specific terms and conditions which are specified at the point of issue. We reserve the right to discontinue or otherwise modify any discount codes at any time without prior notice.

Delivery

Delivery will be complete when we deliver to the address you give us when ordering. We may deliver different parts of your order on different dates.

Delivery is only to the countries mentioned on our site and is otherwise subject to any restrictions we have explained. We have the right to cancel any order from a country to which we don’t deliver (even if there is a legal contract).

Unless we say otherwise, delivery timescales on our website are estimates only. We aren’t responsible for delays in delivery (a) if due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control and where we could not have taken reasonable steps to deal with the delay or (b) if you haven’t given us adequate delivery instructions.

If you receive notification of an unsuccessful attempted delivery, you agree to use the details provided to immediately contact the courier to arrange re-delivery. If nobody is available to receive the goods, we may leave them at the doorstep, hall or reception as available, or with a neighbour.

If the goods can’t be delivered because you haven’t complied with this contract (e.g., giving us the wrong delivery address, not paying customs/import charges, not contacting the courier to arrange re-delivery after an unsuccessful delivery attempt) and are sent back to us, you must pay us the amount of any resulting courier or warehouse fees that we have to pay other people. We can insist that such costs be paid before we arrange re-delivery and/or add them to any future order you make and/or to deduct them from any refund (to the extent legally allowed).

This paragraph applies only if you are not a Consumer: You undertake to inspect all goods immediately on receipt and within seven days you must give notice in writing in detail of any damage or any ground on which you allege that the goods are not in accordance with this agreement. If you fail to give such notice, the goods shall be conclusively presumed to be in all respects in accordance with this agreement and free from any defect which would be apparent on reasonable examination of the goods and you shall be deemed to have accepted the goods accordingly. If you do give notice under this clause, we shall be given a reasonable opportunity after receiving such notice to examine the relevant goods and (if we ask you) you shall send the relevant goods at your expense to the location specified by us to enable the examination to take place.

When You Become the Legal Owner of the Goods

You become owner of the goods after the later of delivery of the goods and payment of the price plus delivery charges. Until that happens, you hold the goods on our behalf. If you are not a Consumer, you must identify the goods as ours and keep them separate from your other goods until ownership passes.

Consumer Right to Cancel (“Cooling Off”)

If you are a Consumer living in the European Economic Area, you have the right to cancel this contract but subject to what we say below. This right is not affected by any separate returns policy on our website.

If you do have the right to cancel, please see the instructions at the end of this document.

Manufacturer Guarantees

Some of the goods that we sell may be subject to a manufacturer’s guarantee. If so, please read the term and conditions of those guarantees.

A manufacturer’s guarantee does not affect your legal rights as a Consumer. You can get advice about your legal rights from your local Trading Standards office or Citizens’ Advice Bureau.

Restrictions on Our Legal Responsibility for Goods – Very Important

Nothing in this agreement in any way limits or excludes our liability for negligence causing death or personal injury or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation or for anything which may not legally be excluded or limited. In this section, any reference to us includes our employees and agents, who have the right to enforce this agreement.

The following clauses apply only if you are a Consumer:

1. We are under a legal duty to supply goods that are in conformity with the contract. Nothing in our agreement affects your legal rights relating to goods that don’t conform with the contract, whether because they are faulty, not as described or otherwise. You can get advice about your legal rights from your local Trading Standards office or Citizens’ Advice Bureau.
2. We are not responsible for any loss or damage where:
   • there is no breach of a legal duty owed to you by us;
   • such loss or damage was not reasonably foreseeable (meaning it was not an obvious consequence of our breach or not contemplated by you and us at the time we entered into this contract
   • (and to the extent that) such loss or damage is your fault, for example by not complying with this agreement; or
   • such loss or damage relates to a business (as we do not intend for goods bought by Consumers to be used for business).
3. You will be responsible to us for any reasonably foreseeable loss or damage we suffer (including claims made by other people) resulting from your breach of this agreement.

The following clauses apply only if you are not a Consumer:

1. Our total aggregate liability of any kind (including for our own negligence) is limited to the price paid for the goods.
2. In no event (including for our own negligence) will we be liable for any:
   • economic losses (including, without limit, loss of revenues, profits, contracts, business or anticipated savings);
   • loss of goodwill or reputation;
   • special, indirect or consequential losses; or
   • damage to or loss of data (even if we have been advised of the possibility of such losses).
3. You will indemnify us against all claims and liabilities directly or indirectly related to your breach of this agreement.
4. We warrant that the goods shall be of satisfactory quality.
5. To the extent allowed by law, you and we exclude all terms, whether imposed by statute or by law or otherwise, that are not expressly stated in this agreement.
6. This agreement constitutes the entire agreement between us with respect to its subject matter and supercedes any previous communications or agreements between us. We both acknowledge that there have been no misrepresentations and that neither of us has relied on any pre-contractual statements. Liability for misrepresentation (excluding fraudulent misrepresentation) relating to the terms of this agreement is excluded.

Things We Can’t Control

We are not liable for failure to perform or delay in performing any obligation under this agreement if the failure or delay is caused by any circumstances beyond our reasonable control including third party telecommunication failures and epidemics/pandemics.

Transferring This Contract to Someone Else

We may transfer all or part of our rights or duties under this agreement provided we take reasonable steps to ensure that your rights under this agreement are not prejudiced. As this agreement is personal to you, you may not transfer any of your rights or duties under it without our prior written consent.

General but Important Stuff
