2. APPLICATION
2.1 These Conditions alone shall govern and be incorporated in every contract for the sale of goods made by or on behalf of AL with a Buyer, whether the Contract is effected on the Website, through the Official Store (be that in person, by telephone, by facsimile, by email or through written correspondence), trade fairs or any other means whereby AL is directly entering into Contracts with the Buyer. The Conditions shall also apply to Gift Certificates and any goods attained by virtue of Gift Certificates. The Conditions shall apply in place of and prevail over any terms or conditions (whether or not in conflict or inconsistent with these Conditions) contained or referred to in any documentation submitted by the Buyer or in correspondence or elsewhere or implied by trade custom, practice or course of dealing.
2.2 Acceptance by the Buyer of delivery or receipt of the Goods shall be deemed to constitute unqualified acceptance of these Conditions.


3. PRICES
3.1 The price payable for the Goods is dependant upon the method by which the Contract is effected and shall be the price advised to the Buyer for Contracts effected through the Official Store, trade fairs or other direct selling vehicles and shall be the price appearing on AL’s Website current at the time of purchase for Contracts effected on the Website.
3.2 Unless otherwise specified VAT and any other tax or duty payable by the Buyer and if applicable, delivery charges shall be added to the price.


4. TERMS OF PAYMENT
4.1 Payment for the Goods shall be made at the time of purchase, unless otherwise advised by AL. The Buyer will be advised if payment is not required at the time of purchase, in which case the Buyer will be invoiced for the Goods, subject always to these Terms.
4.2 Without prejudice to clause 6.1, where Goods are provided subject to invoices, payment of invoices shall, unless otherwise agreed in writing, be made in full within 30 days of the date of invoice. Time of payment is of the essence of a Contract. AL reserves the right to suspend the provision of Goods to the Buyer where any amounts are overdue under any Contract until all such amounts have been paid.


5. GIFT CERTIFICATES
5.1 A Gift Certificate can be redeemed at the Website by following the steps in the payment section of the Website. A Gift Certificate has a cash redemption value of 0.001p. A Gift Certificate including any part thereof must be redeemed by the Holder within one year of the date of issue, after which it expires. Other conditions of use will apply from time to time and will be either detailed on the Gift Certificate or on the Website.
5.2 A Gift Certificate can only be redeemed by the Holder. The Holder of the Gift Certificate can not transfer or assign the benefit of the Gift Certificate or their rights under it.
5.3 A Gift Certificate cannot be applied to a Contract for Goods already arranged with AL. If the Goods ordered from AL with a Gift Certificate cost more than the face value of the Gift Certificate the Holder must pay the balance in accordance with the Conditions.
5.4 If the Goods which the Holder orders from AL cost less than the value of the Gift Certificate, we would suggest that the Holder effects purchases of further items for the remainder of the balance where possible, as no further credit will be given for the value of the balance.


6. DELIVERY
6.1 Goods are only provided to the Buyer or delivered to the Buyer once payment has been approved, unless the Buyer is otherwise notified in writing. Wherever Goods are required to be delivered to the Buyer pursuant to a Contract and AL specifies delivery or despatch dates, such dates are approximate only and not of any contractual effect. AL is not liable to the Buyer for failure to deliver on a particular date or dates. Time for delivery is not of the essence of a Contract and shall not be made so by the service of any notice.
6.2 Wherever Goods are required to be delivered to the Buyer pursuant to a Contract, unless otherwise advised to the Buyer by AL in writing, AL shall deliver the Goods using, at its sole discretion, Recorded Delivery Service , Royal Mail Special Delivery or Business Post Next Day delivery . A signature will be required upon delivery, so the Buyer should select a delivery address where the Buyer can be sure that there will be someone available to accept delivery. The Buyer acknowledges that the charges provided above are only an indication as the charge will change on weight of items and other factors.
6.3 If the Buyer refuses or fails to take delivery of Goods tendered in accordance with the Contract or fails to take any action necessary on its part for delivery AL is entitled to terminate the Contract with immediate effect; to dispose of the Goods as AL may determine, and to recover from the Buyer any loss and additional costs incurred as a result of such refusal or failure.
6.4 If you are expecting delivery of the Goods and you think that the delivery is overdue, please do not hesitate to contact AL by email on sales@annalouoflondon.com and we will inform you of the status of your order as soon as possible.


7. RISK
