All contracts of sale made by Sport & Leisure UK Ltd ("the Company") shall be deemed to incorporate these Terms and Conditions which shall prevail over any other document or communication with the party with whom the Company is dealing ("the Customer").

1. Acceptance of Orders
All orders submitted on our web site or via any other sales channels including, but not limited exclusively to eBay, Amazon, Froogle, Kelkoo etc are acknowledged by email immediately after their submission and are subject to our express acceptance in a second email which advises of cleared payment and delivery details. No order placed by the Customer shall be deemed to be accepted by the Company until the Company issues this final acceptance email of the order to the Customer. All orders are fulfilled subject to these terms and conditions of sale unless otherwise varied by an agreement in writing. It may not be possible for us to accept orders for certain items for delivery to certain countries.

2. Carriage, Postage and Packing
Charges are made for all delivery options except where detailed otherwise and will be invoiced to customers at the prevailing rate.

By default, we will offer the lowest possible shipping rate for your destination.

3. Prices
Goods are invoiced at the price shown at the time of acceptance of an order. Prices shown include VAT which is payable on all goods or services delivered within the EU.

Every effort is made to update and keep current the prices shown on our web site. However the Company reserves the right to modify prices in respect of orders which have not been accepted. Where a product is pictured "in situ" on the web site the price quoted includes only the main product described and not any accessories or accompanying items shown except where otherwise stated.

4. Delivery
a) Any time or date for delivery stated by the Company shall be treated as an estimate only. While every effort will be made to despatch goods within the timescale quoted, no liability can be accepted by the Company for failure to deliver within the quoted times or within any specific time period. The Company shall not be liable for any loss or damage whatsoever (including consequential loss or loss of profit) arising directly or indirectly from any delay in the delivery of all or any of the goods howsoever caused.

b) The Company will accept no liability for shortages or damage to goods unless the Customer notes the damage at the time of delivery (or where this is not possible, for orders totaling less than £250 only, notes "Contents Unseen" on the delivery note or terminal) and notifies the Company via email within 48 hours of receipt of the goods.

c) The Customer shall be bound to accept the goods when they are tendered for delivery by the Company and delivery shall be deemed to take place when the goods are tendered for delivery to the Customer at the nominated address for delivery whereupon the risks of loss, breakage or any other damage whatsoever shall pass to the Customer.

d) If for any reason the Customer cannot accept delivery of the goods for more than 7 days after the product is available for delivery the Company may either elect to store the goods pending their actual delivery and the Customer shall be liable to the Company for the costs (including insurance) of so doing but the Company shall be under no obligation to insure the goods in storage and the risk of any loss or damage to the goods howsoever arising shall be borne by the Customer, or if the period of storage exceeds 60 days may elect to sell the goods at the best price readily obtainable and (after deducting all reasonable storage and selling expenses) account to the Customer for the excess over the price under the contract or charge the Customer for any shortfall below the price under the contract.

e) Where access to the delivery address is limited or additional equipment is required to complete delivery of the goods, additional charges to cover the full costs of these services plus administrative costs will apply.

f) A re-delivery charge of the original shipping cost (or £15 whichever is greater) per instance will be made if a further delivery is necessary because the Customer is not at home to receive the order, or if goods must be redelivered for any other reason. Where delivery was included in the price, this will be chargeable at £15.

g) If an item is returned to us as the customer failed to contact the couriers, any refund will be less the original delivery cost or £15, whichever is greater plus the cost of returning to us which is equal to the original delivery cost or £15, whichever is greater. The Company will notify the customer of despatch, after which time it becomes the customer's responsibility to contact the courier company whether or not they received a calling card from the courier.

5. Payment terms
If an invoice becomes overdue for payment the full outstanding account becomes immediately due and payable. The Company reserves the right to charge interest on overdue amounts at 3% above the HSBC Bank PLC base lending rate for the time being in force calculated on a daily basis. Payment shall be deemed to have been received only when the full amount of the value of the goods as invoiced (plus interest) has been credited to the Company's bank account without recourse or the Company has received the full amount in cash.

6. Property and title
No property or title to goods shall pass to the Customer unless and until the full amount of the value of the goods as invoiced has been credited to the Company's bank account without recourse or the Company has received the full amount in cash (and, in each case, any applicable cancellation period has passed) and the Customer shall indemnify the Company against any loss or damage to the goods prior to the passing of property therein whilst in the Customer's custody. Risk of damage to or loss of the goods shall pass to the Customer at the time of delivery or at the time of attempted delivery or, if the Customer wrongfully fails to receive the delivery as arranged, at the time when the Company has tendered delivery of the goods.

7. Force Majeure
In the event that the Company is prevented from carrying out its obligations as a result of any cause beyond its control such as but not limited to Acts of God, War, Strikes, Lock-outs, Flood and Failure of third parties to deliver goods, the Company shall be relieved of its obligations and liabilities for as long as such fulfillment is prevented.

In this case the Customer will be responsible for returning any defective item to the Company for inspection at the Customer's cost. Original delivery costs are non refundable.

No claim will be entertained in respect of any goods which have been repaired or altered in any way or have been the subject of any accident or damage caused by any innocent, wilful or negligent act or omission of the Customer or through use not in accordance with the manufacturers instructions by the Customer or by circumstances beyond the control of the Company or goods which cannot be shown to have been supplied by the Company.
