These terms and conditions were last updated on 01/03/2005. Use of our website and the sale and purchase of goods from the website are governed by our terms and conditions as set out below. “We” or “Our” means Auto Unique Ltd. “You” or “your” means the person accessing, using or ordering from our website over the Internet.
All prices are shown in GBP (Pounds Sterling). Prices other
than those in GBP are shown for guidance purposes only. All goods are sold subject
to availability. Both price and availability information is subject to change
without notice, hence any subsequent purchases of the same product cannot be
guaranteed at the same price. Where goods are temporarily out of stock we will
endeavour to contact you so that you may choose between a refund on the item,
having it shipped when it is back in stock or selecting an alternative product.
Whilst we take the utmost care to ensure the product descriptions, pictures,
information and prices are accurate we do not accept liability for any inaccuracies,
errors or omissions. We maintain the right to decline orders without giving
an explanation. Colours may vary slightly from those shown on the website due
to the limitations of Internet technology.
Value Added Tax (VAT) is calculated on shipping destination.
It is included in the price for orders shipped to destinations within the European
Union (EU). For orders shipped to destinations outside the EU the price excludes
VAT but orders may be subject to local sales tax or import duty. These are not
included in our prices and customers remain liable for payment of these taxes
or duties on or following delivery.
Orders shipped outside the EU but paid for with a card registered to an address
within the EU are subject to VAT. This VAT will not be displayed in the shopping
basket but will be added to the amount charged to your card.
All orders must be paid for by credit or UK debit cards. You
may also send a cheque drawn on a UK bank, or postal orders (made payable to
Auto Unique Ltd.) to 22 Salisbury Road, Marlborough, Wiltshire SN8 4AD. We accept
Visa (including Delta), Mastercard, American Express, Switch, Solo, and Eurocard.
All prices are in pounds sterling (£) and credit / debit card transactions
for orders outside the UK will be converted by the card company at their current
exchange rates. Your card statement will show your transaction as "Auto
Unique Ltd., Marlborough". If you intend to purchase large volumes of goods
from us, or order on a regular basis, and wish to discuss advantageous prices
and/or credit periods, please contact us on 01672 519333 or email accounts@auto-unique.co.uk.
Your shopping basket displays the goods you have purchased
and an indication of the delivery timescale. We will notify you if your goods
are not able to be despatched within this timescale. We charge a standard shipping
& packing cost in the UK of £2.00 for one item or £3.00 for
two or more items. Outside the UK, the shipping cost is calculated according
to the approximate weight of the items you have ordered and will be displayed
in your shopping basket before you complete the order, enabling you to decide
whether to proceed. Any delivery times quoted are estimates, based on availability
and normal delivery time in working days. Please note that there are some products
that we do not ship to certain destinations, which will be indicated in the
shopping basket.
We want you to be satisfied every time you shop with us.
Our "no quibbles" guarantee means that if for any reason you are unhappy
with the goods purchased you may cancel your order and return the goods to us
within 7 working days from receipt of the goods, you will receive a refund within
30 days of cancellation. It is your responsibility to take care of the goods
before returning them, and they must be returned in a state where they can be
resold. We will not accept return of:
- Goods made to the customer's personal specifications
- Return items to Auto Unique Ltd., 22 Salisbury Road, Marlborough, Wiltshire

whether you require an exchange or refund).
- Unless the goods are defective, damaged or not as specified on your order
acknowledgement, you are responsible for the cost of returning goods to us.

refunded.
