VAT and customs charges, Import Charges
All UK sales will have VAT added at the Governments set rate. For exports into Europe, NO VAT will be added but we require Business EORI numbers. For Exports outside of the EU, NO VAT will not be added if we ship the goods. If you decide to arrange your own shipping we would usually add the UK VAT until your shipping company provides proof that the goods have left the UK, we will then refund the VAT - please be aware your country may impose an Import tax which YOU will be required to pay. This is usually collected for the Government by the Postal service or carrier and can be often be called a Brokerage Fee, or Import tax etc.
Purchase Prices
Any purchase price shown on this website is based on GBP and maybe shown in a different currency with the DAYS exchange rate applied.
Order Cancellation
(Because you have changed your mind, no longer require it, or we can not supply it in your requested time frame.)
You can cancel your order at any time, but if your order has gone into production this will incur a re-stocking fee of between 30% and 80% of the order value depending on its status in manufacture and how much time and materials we have spent / used on your job. If your order has not yet gone into manufacturing, then we have no problems giving you a 100% refund (minus any bank, Card or paypal fees). Basically, if we have started production and used materials and time then we will apply the re-stocking fee of between 30% and 80% - you can request photographs of the parts made. We are only trying to be fair to both parties. Please ask for more information if required.
BANK TRANSFER refunds:
We will apply a £21.00 Admin charge to make refunds via bank transfer. This is to cover the £21.00 charge applied by our bank to facilitate this.
PAYPAL refunds:
Unfortunately, we are unable to refund the PayPal transaction fee as we can not reverse this charge with PayPal.
Refunds & Exchange rates:
Any refunds made via PayPal, Credit Cards, Bank Transfers in any other currency than GBP will be succeptable to fluctuations in exchanges rates so you may recieve a different amount than you originally paid. Unfortunately, this is determined by the financial institutions involved and there is nothing we can do to alter this.
