1.3. If you do not wish to be bound by these terms and conditions then you may not order goods or services from us.
2. Nature of our products and services
2.1. Please note that our products (the ‘Products’), templates and other materials for the creation of bespoke marketing materials for you to market the Products to your customers (the "Marketing Materials”) and services are intended for business users only. You may not place an order for goods or services with us unless you are acting in the course of a business and have legal capacity and authority to contract with us.
3. Buying Products from us
3.1. Orders can be placed through our website, over the telephone, by fax or by email.
3.2. When purchasing products from us via our website, please follow the on screen prompts on our order page to place an order. Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please check the order carefully before confirming it.
3.3. When purchasing products from us over the telephone, please call 0800 652 1234 and speak with a member of our customer service team. When purchasing products from us by fax, please send to 0800 652 1244.

3.5. When ordering through our website, over the telephone, by fax or by email, you are responsible for ensuring that your order is complete and accurate.
3.6. After you place an order, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received it, but please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. If your order is accepted, we will confirm acceptance to you by online electronic means (‘Confirmation’) to the email address you have given us on registration. The contract between you and us will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation. Prestige Leisure is entitled to refuse any order placed by you.
3.7. Delivery times or dates quoted on our website or elsewhere are estimates only. Prestige Leisure will make reasonable efforts to deliver goods within the estimated time, but does not accept liability for any failure to deliver within that time. If we fail to deliver goods within a reasonable time after the estimated delivery time, you may cancel the order by informing us in writing. However, you may not cancel the order if we have notified you that the goods have been dispatched to you. Whether or not you accept delivery of the goods after the estimated delivery time, you agree to hold us harmless for the delay (including indirect or consequential loss).
3.8. We may deliver goods in instalments. We may decline to deliver goods (without liability) if we believe delivery would be unsafe, unlawful or unreasonably difficult. We may deliver in quantities of 5 per cent more or less than the quantity ordered and invoice you for the quantity actually delivered. You shall not be entitled to reject the whole consignment (or to refuse to pay for it) if there is a 5 per cent variation in the quantity you ordered.
3.9. The price of any Product is the price in force at the date and time of your order, unless otherwise agreed in writing. We may change the price of any Product before the date and time of delivery, in order to reflect any increase in the costs to us of supplying the Product. The prices are exclusive of delivery costs and applicable taxes. Rates of tax and duties on the goods will be those applying at the time of delivery.
3.10. Save for the circumstances described in clauses 3.7, you may not cancel an order without our written consent.
3.11. You must pay for the goods in cleared funds on or prior to delivery unless you have a credit account with us. If you do have a credit account, payment is due no later than 30 days after the date of our invoice or such earlier or later date of payment as the invoice specifies. If you fail to make any payment by the due date for payment (or fail to honour any other contractual obligations, or appear to be insolvent) we may suspend or cancel deliveries and cancel any discount previously offered to you. We also reserve the right to charge interest at the rate set under section 6 of the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1988 accruing on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment, whether before or after judgment, and compounding quarterly.
3.11.1. You shall pay all amounts due in full without any deduction or withholding and you shall not be entitled to assert any credit, set-off or counterclaim against us in order to justify withholding payment of any such amount in whole or in part. We may retain goods belonging to you until you pay all amounts due.
3.11.2. You shall indemnify us in full and hold us harmless from all expenses and liabilities which we may incur (directly or indirectly and including finance costs, legal costs and the costs of instructing a debt collection agency to recover a debt due us) following breach by you of any of your obligations to us.
3.11.3. If you have a credit account with us, we may withdraw it or reduce your credit limit or bring forward the due date for payment. We may take any of these actions at any time and without prior notice.
3.12. You undertake and warrant that all details you provide to us (the "Specification”) for the purpose of ordering, manufacturing and purchasing goods or services which may be offered by us will be accurate; that goods prepared by us in accordance with the Specification will be fit for the purpose for which you intend to use them; and that the Specification will not result in the infringement of any intellectual property rights of a third party, or in the breach of any applicable law or regulation. We reserve the right to make any changes in the specifications of our goods that are necessary to ensure they conform to any applicable safety, statutory or regulatory requirements; and to make any minor modifications (without notice) to your Specification which we consider necessary or desirable. In addition, you undertake and warrant that any electronic cash which you use is your own, and that there are sufficient funds or credit facilities to cover the cost of any goods or services ordered by you. We reserve the right to obtain validation of your credit or debit card details before providing you with any goods or services.
3.13. Any goods delivered to you by us shall remain our property until we have received payment in full (in cash or cleared funds) for the goods and any other goods or services that we have supplied to you. You must store the goods so that they are clearly identifiable as our property. You must insure the goods against the risks for which a prudent owner would insure them and hold the policy in trust for us. You must allow us to inspect and/or remove the goods at any time.
3.13.1. You may use the goods and sell them in the ordinary course of your business unless we revoke that right or you become insolvent. If you become insolvent you must inform us immediately and allow us to remove the goods.
3.14. Goods are at your risk from the time of delivery. Delivery takes place either (a) at our premises (if you are collecting them or arranging carriage) or (b) at your premises or the delivery address specified by you (if we are arranging carriage). You must inspect the goods on delivery. If the goods are damaged or not delivered, you must inform us in writing no later than by 2pm the next working day after delivery has taken place or (in the case of goods not delivered) the expected date of delivery. You must give us (and any carrier) a fair chance to inspect the damaged goods.
4. Returns
4.1. Due to the high cost of administration, samples are non-returnable.
4.2. Printed or embroidered garments will not be accepted back under any circumstances.
4.3. If you wish to return goods which you consider defective in material or workmanship, you must inform us in writing within 7 days of delivery (and allow us to inspect the goods if we ask). If we find the goods are defective in material or workmanship we will (at our option) replace the goods or refund the price paid. Only faulty garments that have NOT been worn or processed will be credited in full. Returned goods must be as fit for sale on their return as they were on delivery and must be returned in their original packaging. We reserve the right to refuse to accept return of goods which we in our absolute and uncontrolled discretion deem unsuitable for resale. Goods delivered more than three months earlier will not be accepted for return.
4.4. Please contact Customer Services for a Goods Returns Form which must be completed in full to authorise any goods to be returned. You will be issued with a Returns Authorisation Number THAT MUST BE CLEARLY MARKED ON THE OUTER PACKAGING OF THE PARCEL(S). GOODS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AND RETURNED TO SENDER IF THIS PROCESS IS NOT ADHERED TO.
4.5. If goods have been incorrectly sent please contact Customer Services to obtain a Goods Returns Form and arrange collection.
