Making a purchase

Pricing

We list all our prices both exclusive and inclusive of VAT where appropriate. Please note that all our prices are subject to change without notice, so please check prices carefully before placing your order. On rare occasions, we may accidentally list an incorrect price for a Product on our website. Where the Product’s correct price is less than the listed price, we’ll charge you the lower amount when processing your order. However, if the Product’s correct price is higher than our listed price, we’re under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we’ve sent you an order confirmation e-mail. In this situation, at our discretion, we’ll either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product or reject your order and notify you of this.

Delivery costs

Delivery on all orders is exclusive of VAT. You will be notified of any applicable delivery charges at the time of placing your order.

When and where we deliver

We deliver Monday to Friday (except Bank Holidays) – we do not make deliveries over the weekend. We deliver to all mainland locations in Europe Union. We may be able to deliver to some other remote locations, depending on the type of products you’ve ordered. However, an extra charge will apply to these deliveries. Please note that we can’t deliver any Products outside of the Europe Unione.

To check whether we can deliver to your area, please call us on +39 02 94756257.

All the Products within your order must be delivered to a single address. For credit or debit card security reasons, we must deliver to the cardholder’s address the first time you use a different debit or credit card to pay for your order. After that, future deliveries can be made to different addresses.

Placing your order

You must accept these Terms in full before your order can be placed. You must be aged 18 or over to place an order with us. Our order process lets you check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please take the time to read and check your order carefully at each stage of the process. Please make sure that you provide your correct phone number and email address when you place your order. When you place your order, this represents an offer to purchase Products from us. We’ll send you an email to confirm that we’ve received your order. However, this order confirmation email doesn’t mean that we’ve accepted your order (see below).

How to pay

You can pay for Products ordered through our website by debit or credit card, business purchase order or by bank transfer (BACS). We accept Visa and Mastercard credit cards. We’ll take payment for your order, including delivery charges, from your debit or credit card at the time you place your order. However, this doesn’t mean that your order has been accepted and if we reject your order for any reason (see below), or we can’t supply the Products you’ve ordered, we’ll credit your payment card with a full refund.

By using a debit or credit card to pay for your order or purchase, you confirm that the card being used is yours or that you are authorized to use it. All debit or credit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorization by the card issuer.

If the issuer of the card refuses to authorize payment we will not accept your order or purchase, we will not be obliged to inform you of the reason for the refusal, and we will not be liable for the item not being delivered or provided to you. We are not responsible for the card issuer or bank charging the holder of the card as a result of our processing of your debit or credit card payment in accordance with your order or purchase.

Accepting your order, your Contract with us and situations where we may have to reject your order

Your order will be accepted when we dispatch your Product unless we reject your order (see below). The Contract between us is formed at the time we dispatch your Products. If your order is dispatched in more than one delivery, each dispatch will form a separate Contract covering the Product(s) delivered under that dispatch. Without affecting any Consumer Cancellation Right which may apply (see below), you can cancel your order for a Product at no cost, at any time before we dispatch that Product. Before we’ve accepted your order, we reserve the right to tell you that your order has been rejected for any reason. In particular, all orders are subject to stock availability. We’ll tell you as soon as possible if we can’t supply one or more of the products that you’ve ordered. If we can’t contact you about these out-of-stock Products, we’ll accept your order for the Products we do have in stock. If you’ve already paid for the unavailable Products, we’ll give you a refund for their purchase price.

Delivery

Timescales for delivery

We’ll always try our best to meet the estimated delivery timescales we give you. However, we won’t be held responsible for any failure to deliver your order within the stated timescales, provided we deliver the Products within 30 days of receiving your payment or within a longer time period if we’ve agreed on this with you. If we can’t deliver your order within this timescale, we’ll let you know and give you the opportunity to either wait for the Products or cancel your Contract. If you choose to cancel, we’ll give you a full refund including any delivery charges that apply.

Number of deliveries

We’ll always try to make one single delivery where possible to minimize inconvenience. However, this may not always be possible. Where your order contains a mix of Products with different delivery lead times, the longest lead time will always apply to the entire order.

Receiving your deliveries

All deliveries must be received and signed for by a person aged 18 or over. If no one is available to take the delivery, we’ll call you to arrange a suitable date and time for redelivery. We may need to make an additional handling charge for this. If no one is available to receive the redelivery, we may cancel your order and refund your payment, minus any delivery and handling charges.

Faulty Products and Products delivered damaged

Your rights

In the unlikely event that a Product is faulty, not as described or delivered damaged, your rights are set out in our General Terms and Conditions of Sale. If you’re ordering Products from us as a consumer rather than in the course of your business, you may have additional legal rights and nothing in these Terms or our General Terms and Conditions of Sale will affect these rights.

Please contact us if there is an issue

If there are any issues with the products you’ve ordered, please contact us straight away so we can help. You can email us at sale@gidrolast.com or call us on +39 02 94756257.

Manufacturers warranties and guarantees

Some Products are sold with a manufacturer’s warranty, guarantee or similar assurance (please see the relevant product description on the website for further details). Any complaint, query or claim under a manufacturer’s warranty, guarantee or similar assurance must be made direct to the manufacturer and we do not have any responsibility or liability under or in connection with any such warranty, guarantee or assurance.


Statutory rights if you are Consumer

Consumer Cancellation Right

If you’re ordering Products from us as a consumer, you have a statutory right to cancel any online or telephone orders (excluding orders for bespoke or made-to-measure Products) and receive a full refund, including standard delivery charges. This is your Consumer Cancellation Right and it applies in addition to any other rights set out under these Terms and our General Terms and Conditions of Sale.

How to exercise a Consumer Cancellation Right

To exercise your Consumer Cancellation Right, you must contact us at any time before the Products are dispatched or within 14 days of delivery, starting on the day after your delivery is made. If your order is delivered in multiple shipments, the 14 day period starts the day after the last installment is delivered. If we receive your cancellation notice outside these timeframes, your Consumer Cancellation Right will not apply. Please also note that if you exercise your Consumer Cancellation Right after the Products have been delivered, you’ll be responsible for returning the Products to us at your own cost and within 14 days of canceling your order.

How to return Products that have already been delivered to you when you’ve exercised your Consumer Cancellation Right

You can arrange for us to collect the Products by emailing sale@gidrolast.com or call us on +39 02 94756257 with your order number and details of the Products you want to return. We’ll then arrange for the Products to be collected by our nominated carrier.

Your refund when you exercise your Consumer Cancellation Right

We’ll refund your returned Products as soon as possible and no later than 14 days after receiving them back. The refund will be made to the debit or credit card you used to pay for the Products. Please note that we have the right to reduce the amount of your refund to reflect any decrease in the Products’ value that has resulted from the manner in which you’ve handled them.

Other cancellations/returns

Unless you have a Consumer Cancellation Right or faulty/defective Product any cancellations, returns, and refunds are at our discretion. To enquire about cancellations and returns, please call +39 02 94756257  or email sale@gidrolast.com with your order number and phone number. If we do accept a return of the Products, they must be returned in their original and unused condition within 7 days of the date of delivery to you. You’ll be responsible for returning the Products to us at your own cost and we may deduct a restocking charge from the amount of your refund.

Age requirements for certain Products

Where you place an order for or otherwise purchase age-restricted Products (such as solvents, aerosols, knives) you confirm that you are over the age of 18 and that (where applicable) delivery will be accepted by a person over the age of 18. We reserve the right to cancel your order or purchase if we reasonably believe you do not meet the age restrictions for certain Products.

Other important terms

We shall have no liability to you for any failure or delay in supply or delivery or for any damage or defect to Products supplied or delivered hereunder or for any other liability, in each case that is caused by any event or circumstance beyond our reasonable control (including, without limitation, accidents, extreme weather conditions, fire, explosion, flood, storm, earthquake, natural disaster, failure of telecommunications networks, inability to use transport networks, mechanical failures, acts of God, terrorist attack, war, civil commotion, riots, strikes, lockouts and other industrial disputes, acts or restraints of Government, and imposition or restrictions of imports or exports).

If any part of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable then, to the extent that it is invalid or unenforceable, the part in question will be treated as if it has been severed from these Terms. If this happens, the remaining parts of these Terms will continue in full force and effect. We reserve the right to make changes to these Terms in the future without giving notice. Any changes will be posted to this website and will take effect immediately. Therefore, you should read these Terms each time you access this website and before placing an order with us. These Terms and any Contracts shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law and shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
