1.2 You will be asked to give your express agreement to these terms and conditions before you place an order on our website.
1.3 This document does not affect any statutory rights you may have as a consumer (such as rights under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 or the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013).
2. Interpretation
2.1 In these terms and conditions:
(a) "we" means GEMMA REDMOND VINTAGE; and
(b) "you" means our customer or prospective customer,
and "us", "our" and "your" should be construed accordingly.
3. Order process
3.1 The advertising of products on our website constitutes an "invitation to treat" rather than a contractual offer.
3.2 No contract will come into force between you and us unless and until we accept your order in accordance with the procedure set out in this Section 3.
3.3 We accept orders from both UK and international customers.
3.4 To enter into a contract through our website to purchase products from us, the following steps must be taken: you must add the products you wish to purchase to your shopping cart, and then proceed to the checkout; if you are a new customer, you must then create an account with us and log in; if you are an existing customer, you must enter your login details; once you are logged in, you must select your preferred method of delivery and confirm your order and your consent to the Terms and Conditions of our website; you will be transferred to Worldpay our payment service provider's website, and our payment service provider will handle your payment; we will then send you an initial acknowledgement; and once we have checked whether we are able to meet your order, we will either send you an order confirmation at which point your order will become a binding contract or we will confirm by email that we are unable to meet your order.
3.5 You will have the opportunity to identify and correct input errors prior to making your order by checking your order and removing or adding items before you continue with the ordering process.
4. Products
4.1 The following types of products are available on our website from time to time: Designer and unsigned vintage costume jewellery.

5. Prices

5.2 We will from time to time change the prices quoted on our website, but this will not affect contracts that have previously come into force.
5.3 VAT is not currently applicable to the purchase of items on this website. All amounts stated for postage are either exempt of VAT or inclusive of VAT.
5.4 It is possible that prices on the website may be incorrectly quoted; accordingly, we will verify prices as part of our sale procedures so that the correct price will be notified to you before the contract comes into force.
5.5 In addition to the price of the products, you may have to pay a delivery charge, which will be notified to you before the contract of sale comes into force.
6. Payments
6.1 You must, during the checkout process, pay the prices of the products you order.
6.2 Payments may be made by any of the permitted methods specified on our website from time to time.

(b) all third party expenses incurred by us in relation to the charge-back including charges made by our or your bank or payment processor or card issuer;
(c) an administration fee of GBP 25.00.
(d) all our reasonable costs, losses and expenses incurred in recovering the amounts referred to in this Section 6.4 including without limitation legal fees and debt collection fees,
and for the avoidance of doubt, if you fail to recognise or fail to remember the source of an entry on your card statement or other financial statement, and make a charge-back as a result, this will constitute an unjustified charge-back for the purposes of this Section 6.4.

7.2 We will arrange for the products you purchase to be delivered to the delivery address you specify during the checkout process.

8.3 In order to withdraw an offer to contract or cancel a contract on the basis described in this Section 8, you must inform us of your decision to withdraw or cancel as the case may be. You may inform us by means of any clear statement setting out the decision. In the case of cancellation, you may inform us by email using the email address on our web site. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning the exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
8.4 If you cancel a contract on the basis described in this Section 8, you must send the products back to us to GEMMA REDMOND VINTAGE, 5 ROBY MILL, SKELMERSDALE, LANCASHIRE, WN8 0QF, UK.

We may recover that amount by deducting it from any refund due to you or require you to pay that amount direct to us. Handling which goes beyond the sort of handling that might reasonably be allowed in a shop will be "beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the products" for these purposes.
8.7 We will refund money using the same method used to make the payment, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise. In any case, you will not incur any fees as a result of the refund.
