PRICING AND AVAILABILITY
All products ordered are subject to availability.

For this reason, we cannot be held responsible if all or part of your order is unable to be fulfilled, due to any errors in the stock shown as available on the website.
Prices quoted on the website may vary from time to time and are liable to change without prior notice. Any price changes will not affect orders that have been checked out and or paid for. However, if you have items in your basket and have not yet checked out, the prices will be updated as you complete the check-out process.
