to your shopping basket whenever you add a new item, but you can also view the contents of your shopping basket by clicking on the "shopping basket" button. The shopping basket screen lists your current selection of items with description, price and current subtotal. You can edit the contents of your basket and remove any input errors by removing items or changing quantities.

(3) Making a Purchase

To purchase the items in your basket and proceed with your order using our secure online purchasing facility, click on the "purchase online" button on the shopping basket screen. You will then be transferred to our secure server to complete your order.

If you would like to order goods from us but do not want to enter your credit/ debit card details on the web, you can pay for your order by cheque or over the phone. We can only accept cheques denominated in pounds sterling and drawn on a UK bank. Cheques should be made payable to The London Bead Co. and should not be made to exact amount but should read under the signature "not to exceed ?---.--" and should be an estimate of the goods purchased. This is to ensure that the correct amount is written on the cheque to cover goods being unavailable at the time of purchase and to make slight adjustments to the postal costs. Please check with your bank that they are in agreement with this method of purchasing other than that we will contact you with the value of your purchase in order for you to make the cheque out to the correct amount. Your order reference number should be marked clearly on the reverse side of the cheque. Paying by cheque will slow down the ordering process, as we can not process your order until your cheque has been received and cleared.

You will be asked to provide certain information we need to enable us to process your order such as your preferred delivery address and payment details. It is your responsibility to provide us with sufficient information to process you order.

We may acknowledge receipt of your order on our website or by email. This is not our acceptance of your order, but confirmation that it has been received.

(4) Wait for acceptance of you order

You may not assume we have accepted your order until we send you an acceptance by email. Only if and when you receive our acceptance will we have a binding contract between us.

You may receive acknowledgement from our payment processor advising you whether or not your credit or debit card payment has been authorised. This acknowledgement relates to your payment only and is not our acceptance of your order.

We will be entitled to refuse to accept your order if in our sole discretion we consider it necessary. In particular we must receive payment of the whole of the price for the goods that you order before your order can be accepted. If we refuse your order we will let you know as soon as we can. If we accept your order we will inform you without undue delay.

Once we have entered into a contract with you we shall supply you with the items specified in your order in accordance with the terms of the contract.

3. Other information about the Contract

We can only conclude the contract with you in English and not in any other language.

The contract between us will consist of (1) these terms and conditions together with our terms of use and privacy policy, (2) your order and (3) our acceptance. We will not file the concluded contract between us online and you should therefore print out and retain copies of each element of the contract.

a. Price

The prices payable for goods that you order as well as any applicable VAT and delivery charges are as set out in our website.

b. Your right to cancel your contract and our returns policy

If you are a consumer, you may cancel your contract with us for the goods you order at any time up to the end of the seventh working day from the date you receive the ordered goods. You do not need to give us any reason for cancelling your contract nor will you have to pay any penalty.

To cancel your contract you must notify us in writing by hand delivered notice, post, fax or email.
