    2. The Contract will relate only to those Goods whose order We have confirmed in the Acceptance. We will not be obliged to supply any other Goods which may have been part of your order until the order of such Goods has been accepted by a separate Acceptance.
    3. Each order for Goods by You to Us will be deemed to be an offer by You to purchase Goods subject to these Conditions.
    4. You must ensure that the terms of your order and any applicable specification are complete and accurate.
    5. We reserve the right to correct any typographical or clerical error or omission on our site, in any sales literature, price list, quotation, Acceptance, specification, invoice or other document or information issued by Us, without any liability on our part and without notice.
    6. Descriptions appearing on our site or contained in catalogues, brochures or in any other publicity material are given in good faith. All weights and dimensions are approximate only and maximum load capacities stated are for evenly distributed loads only. Information may be varied or amended by us at any time without notice. Whilst every endeavour is made to ensure accuracy of representative photographs and images of the Goods, errors may occur and design detail may change. For this reason, fabric and material samples are available on request and any advice provided by Us shall be provided without liability to You.
    7. Material finishes and product colours shown on our site are for illustrative purposes only and can vary when viewed on different electronic devices. For this reason, we cannot guarantee that your device will accurately reflect the true colour and finish of the Goods. For this reason, fabric and material samples are available on request.
    8. All Goods are supplied on condition that You undertake at all times to take notice of and comply with all instructions, statements and recommendations issued with or relating to the Goods and to take all reasonable and prudent precautions as to their use. We shall not be liable to You or to any third party for any loss or damage which arises from your misuse of the Goods.
    9.

    10. These Conditions will be incorporated in the Contract to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions.
  5. . Consumer Rights
    1. For the purposes of these Conditions, You shall be contracting as a consumer if You are not acting for the purposes of your business, trade or profession in purchasing Goods from Us. All other customers shall be contracting as business customers. If You are contracting as a consumer, you may, with the exception of terms given in clause 5.7, cancel a Contract (without giving any reason for cancellation) at any time within the period:

      (a) beginning upon the submission of your order; and

      (b) ending at the end of 14 days after the day on which the Goods come into your physical possession or the physical possession of a person identified by you to take possession of them.

    2. In order to cancel a Contract on the basis described in clause 5.1, You must inform Us of your decision to cancel. You may inform Us by means of any clear statement setting out the decision. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for You to send your communication concerning the exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
    3. For cancellation requests please contact Us in writing at sales@yo-yodesk.co.uk. We will advise you of the process by which Goods can be returned to Us. You must not send the Goods back to Us or hand them over to Us without receiving return instructions from Us as we operate multiple dispatch locations. You must comply with your obligations referred to in this clause 5.3 without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract. You must pay the direct cost of returning the Goods.
    4. If You cancel a Contract on the basis described in clause 5.1, You will receive a full refund of the amount You paid to Us in respect of the order, excluding any additional or special carriage charges paid for the delivery of the goods to You. Any cost related to the return of Goods when arranged by Us will be deducted from your refund.
    5. Goods should be returned in original packaging, unused and suitable for resale. If the value of the Goods returned by You is diminished by any amount as a result of the handling of those Goods by You beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods, We may recover that amount from You up to the Contract price. We may recover that amount by deducting it from any refund due to You or require You to pay that amount direct to Us. Handling which goes beyond the sort of handling that might reasonably be allowed in a store will be "beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods" for these purposes.
    6. Unless We have offered to collect the Goods, We will process a refund due to You as a result of a cancellation on the basis described in clause 5.1 within the period of 30 days after the day on which We receive the returned Goods.

    6. We will deliver the Goods ordered by You to the address You give us for delivery when You place your order. It is your responsibility to ensure that the delivery address is accurate and complete; You must also ensure that there will be somebody available to sign for and take delivery of the Goods. If ordering on behalf of a third party, You are giving Us permission to use their delivery details, solely for the fulfilment of the order.
    7. Any attempted delivery which is refused at the delivery address or which, through no fault of our own, cannot be delivered at the delivery address, will be returned. Any subsequent attempt to re-deliver the Goods may be chargeable. The amount of the re-delivery charge depends on the carrier used to effect re-delivery.
    8. In accordance with normal transport practices all goods will be kerbside delivery, or delivered to the goods inwards department or reception on the ground floor. Off-loading facilities must be provided by You. If further transfer or installation is required, particularly for large and heavy items, this must be requested at the time of ordering and an additional charge will be levied. Please note that a signed consignment note constitutes delivery of goods. Please check that the number of boxes received corresponds with the delivery note before signing.
    9. Notification of non-delivery must be made in writing by You within 7 days of invoice date and for shortages, incorrect delivery or damage within 3 days of receipt of goods. Failing this no claims will be entertained.

      (a) You are late in paying for the Goods; or

      (b) You are late in paying for any other goods supplied by Us; or if

      (c) before title to the Goods passes to You, You become subject to any of the events listed in clause 7.5 (a) or (b), or We reasonably believe that any such event is about to happen and notify You accordingly, then:

      (d) without limiting any other right or remedy We may have, We may at any time require You to deliver up the Goods and, if You fail to do so promptly, We may (during normal business hours and with or without vehicles) enter any premises of yours or of any third party where the Goods are stored or kept in order to recover them. You shall not keep the Goods at any premises in respect of which You do not have the right to grant access to Us.

  8. . Price & Payment

    4. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Goods listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our Acceptance. If the correct price of the Goods is higher than the price stated on our site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Goods, or reject your order and notify You of such rejection.
    5. We are under no obligation to provide the Goods to You at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent You an Acceptance, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by You as a mispricing.
    6. Preferred method of payment is by credit/debit card or by bank transfer payment. Unless You hold a credit account with us, full payment must be made prior to order Acceptance. Secure card payments can be made by VISA, Mastercard, Delta, Switch, Solo, JCB, American Express, VISA Electron or by PayPal. You can enter your payment details at checkout or call us on 0333 22 00 375 to place your order.
    7. Payment is required prior to dispatch unless credit terms have been agreed.
    8. Our payment terms for credit accounts are 30 days end of month. All payments must be made in sterling (GBP).

  9. . Damages, Shortages & Returns
    1. If You are contracting with Us as a business customer, You have 3 days following your receipt of the Goods to report any damage to, defect in, incorrect delivery or shortage of the Goods by contacting Us by telephone on 0333 22 00 375 or by emailing sales@yo-yodesk.co.uk. We will require full details of the reported damage or defect and may request images. The Goods must remain in the original packaging and if requested by Us be promptly returned. Once We have verified the damage to, defect in or shortage of the Goods, We shall issue a replacement or a refund (including postage) to You via your original payment method.

We may refuse to replace or refund any Goods returned to Us if We consider that You have failed to take reasonable care of the Goods.

    3. Desks installations, Made-to-order non-stock, bespoke or customised Goods are Restricted Goods and cannot be accepted back into stock. If You need to cancel Restricted Goods for any reason, this can only be accommodated within 24 hours of placing the order. If accepted, charges may apply to cover any costs incurred. If a cancellation is possible after 24 hours, Yo-Yo DESK will charge a cancellation fee as it is unlikely that we could resell Restricted Goods to another customer.

Goods returned shall remain at your risk until receipt of the goods by Us. Where it has been agreed that You arrange the return delivery, the proof of return will remain with You.
    6. If the value of the Goods returned by You is diminished by any amount as a result of the handling of those Goods by You, We may recover that amount from You up to the Contract price. We may recover that amount by deducting it from any refund due to You or require You to pay that amount direct to Us.
    7. If You are contracting with Us as a consumer, clauses 9.8-9.9 summarise your key legal rights in relation to the Goods, which are subject to certain exceptions. Damages should be reported within three working days - this does not affect your statutory rights.
    8. The Consumer Rights Act 2015 says goods must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. During the expected life of the Goods, You are entitled to the following:

      (a) up to 30 days: if the Goods are damaged or defective, then You can get a refund;

      (b) up to six months: if the damaged or defective Goods cannot be repaired or replaced, then You are entitled to a refund of up to the full amount, in most cases;

      (c) up to six years: in the event that the Goods can be expected to last up to six years then You may be entitled to a repair or replacement, or, if the Goods cannot be repaired or replaced, You may be entitled to some of your money back.
