Right to cancel

• Except as set out below, if you cancel your order, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery.
Deduction for Goods supplied
• We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any Goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling or processing (ie handling the Goods beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods: eg it goes beyond the sort of handling that might be reasonably allowed in a shop). This is because you are liable for that loss and, if that deduction is not made, you must pay us the amount of that loss.
Timing of reimbursement
• If you choose to be reimbursed, reimbursement will be delivered without delay, subject to deductions; and in any case, processed within 7 working days from the agreement to reimburse by us to you (e.g. through order cancelation or issues with delivered product).
