TERMS AND CONDITIONS

No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000.

All orders for goods accepted by Red Submarine Limited T/A Gear4music.com (the vendor) are accepted subject to the following conditions, which shall form part and govern the contract of sale. Acceptance of goods by the customer shall be deemed to be acceptance of these conditions of sale unless the customer notifies the vendor in writing within 8 days of receipt of this letter or delivery of goods. Any term sought to be imposed by a customer either in a document or otherwise that conflicts with or adds to these conditions is not accepted. No agent or representative of the vendor has authority to vary these conditions.

We store the content of this contract and will send you the details of your order as well as our general terms via email. You can find the terms here at all times. The details about your recent orders can be found in your customer login.

TERMS OF PAYMENT

For orders placed using Credit or Debit cards, the payment card will not be debited until the order is actually dispatched, except for complete computer systems or packages configured to customer requirements, in which case credit/debit cards will be debited immediately after an order is placed. The vendor reserves the right not to accept payment by credit or debit card. Cheques must be cleared before delivery of goods, which takes 7-10 days, therefore direct bank transfer is recommended when payment by card is not possible or not accepted. The vendor only accepts purchase orders on 30 day credit terms from recognised educational establishments and government departments. Goods remain the property of the vendor until paid for in full and the vendor reserves the right not to dispatch goods until cleared funds have been received.

SHIPMENT OF ORDERS

The vendor shall not be bound by a contract of sale until the goods have been received by the customer. As indicated on the product page, delivery dates are provided as an estimate only - the vendor will use its best endeavours to comply with the date named for delivery. Many products are held in stock by the vendor, but in some cases the date stated is an estimate of the time it will take to order the item from the manufacturer and deliver it to the customer. The vendor reserves the right to part ship orders but will not charge more than the total advertised delivery price for delivery of the order in full.

GOODS DAMAGED IN TRANSIT

Any goods received by the customer that have suffered damage in transit must be reported to the vendor as soon as possible, and at the latest within 14 days of receiving the goods. The vendor will collect damaged goods from the customer and deliver replacement goods as quickly as possible at its own expense. The vendor will not accept any responsibility for goods damaged in transit if the customer reports the damage more than 14 days after receiving the goods.

If an order is cancelled by the vendor any monies paid by the customer will be refunded in full.
