6. FAULTY GOODS / GUARANTEE
6.1 If there is a problem with the goods, please notify us by email or in writing providing details of the problem.

Replacement goods will not be dispatched until the original goods have been received at our warehouse and checked.

If the goods are not faulty, we will return them to you, however you will be required to cover our reasonable postage costs.
6.5 If an item is no longer available we will offer an alternative. However our liability will be to replace the faulty goods only and we are unable to guarantee an exact match. In this instance you will have the option of a refund.
