If you opt to cancel, you will have to return (at our cost) any relevant Products you have already received and we will arrange a full refund of the price you have paid, including any delivery charges.
8.1 You have a legal right to cancel a Contract under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 during the period set out below in clause 8.3. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or decide for any other reason that you do not want to receive or keep a Product, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund. Advice about your legal right to cancel the Contract is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.
8.2 However, this cancellation right does not apply in the case of:
8.2.1 MDI units, and any propeller that has been immersed in salt water or
8.2.2 Any products which are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised.
8.3 Your legal right to cancel a Contract starts from the date of the Order Confirmation (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your Order), which is when the Contract between us is formed. Your deadline for cancelling the Contract then depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered, as set out in the table below:
Your Contract | End of the cancellation period |
Your Contract is for a single Product (which is not delivered in instalments on separate days). | The end date is the end of 14 days after the day on which you receive the Product. Example: if we provide you with an Order Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the Product on 10 January you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January. |
Your Contract is for multiple Products which are delivered on separate days. | The end date is 14 days after the day on which you receive the last of the separate Products ordered. Example: if we provide you with an Order Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the first of your separate Products on 10 January and the last separate Product on 15 January you may cancel in respect of any or all of the separate Products at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 29 January. |
8.4 To cancel a Contract, you need to let us know that you have decided to cancel. The easiest way to do this is to complete the cancellation form. Please see clause 2.2 for how to do this. If you use this method we will e-mail you to confirm we have received your cancellation.
Our contact details are as stated at clause 2.2. If you are e-mailing us or writing to us please include details of your Order to help us to identify it. If you send us your cancellation notice by e-mail or by post, then your cancellation is effective from the date you send us the e-mail or post the letter to us. For example, you will have given us notice in time as long as you get your letter into the last post on the last day of the cancellation period or e-mail us before midnight on that day.
8.5 If you cancel your Contract we will:
8.5.1 refund you the price you paid for the Products. However, please note we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the Products, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.
8.5.2 refund any delivery costs you have paid, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer (provided that this is a common and generally acceptable method). For example, if we offer delivery of a Product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the Product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
8.5.3 make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within the deadlines indicated below:
8.6 If you have returned the Products to us under this clause 8 because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of the Products in full, together with any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us.
8.7 We will refund you by PayPal or on the credit card or debit card used by you to pay.
8.8 If a Product has been delivered to you before you decide to cancel your Contract:
8.8.1 then you must return it to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you let us know that you wish to cancel the Contract. You can send it back to our returns address which is provided at clause 2.2;
8.8.2 unless the Product is faulty or not as described (in this case, see clause 8.6), you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Products to us. If the Product is one which cannot be returned by post, we estimate that if you use the carrier which delivered the Product to you, these costs should not exceed the sums we charged you for delivery.
8.8.3 In the event of cancelled wholesale orders where the buyer changes their mind advises us that they no longer want to complete the purchase or wishes to return their order, a refund minus 15% restocking fee will be issued and all return costs shall be at the buyers expense.
8.9 Because you are a consumer, we are under a legal duty to supply Products that are in conformity with this Contract. As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Products that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by your right of return and refund in this clause 7 or anything else in these Terms. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.
We endeavour to despatch most items on the day, or after 4pm on the next working day, that they were placed by Royal Mail or DHL courier.
The cut-off time for DHL collection is approximately 2 pm on weekdays and 3.30 pm for Royal Mail. If you require a special or timed delivery, contact us on 01326 370060. to discuss the options available to you.
Please understand, that we have no control over adverse weather, a cancelled collection/ delivery by any delivery method chosen or Bank holiday disruptions. Some larger items may require us to order the parts from Volvo Penta or Yanmar central stores. This can take up to 24 hours or in some rare circumstances, longer. Any indicated delivery time shown for any item is a guide and should not be relied on. We stock over £150,000 of Volvo Penta and Yanmar parts, so most advertised items are available quickly. All our stock is genuine, stored inside a clean dry facility and backed up with technical help, if required. We are the main dealers of Volvo Penta, Yanmar, Mariner and Mercruiser.
9.1 We will contact you with an estimated delivery date, which will be within twenty-eight (28) days after the date of the Order Confirmation (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your Order). Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an event outside our control. See clause 15 for our responsibilities when this happens.
9.2 If no one is available at your address to take delivery, we will notify you of this fact and provide you with information as to whom to contact to rearrange delivery.
9.3 Delivery of an Order shall be completed when we deliver the Products to the address you gave us and the Products will be your responsibility from that time.
9.4 You own the Products once we have received payment in full, including all applicable delivery charges.
9.5 If we miss the 28-day delivery deadline for any Products then, subject to clause 15, you may cancel your Order straight away if any of the following apply:
9.5.1 we have refused or are unable to deliver the Products;
9.5.2 delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
9.5.3 you told us before we accepted your Order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.
9.6 If you do not wish to cancel your Order straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 9.5, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can cancel your Order if we do not meet the new deadline.
9.7 If you do choose to cancel your Order for late delivery under clause 9.5 or clause 9.6, you can do so for just some of the Products or all of them, unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. If the Products have been delivered to you, you will have to return them to us, and we will pay the costs of this. After you cancel your Order we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled Products and their delivery.
10.1 We will deliver product Internationally, but please call or email us for a delivery quotation. The list of countries to which we deliver (International Delivery Destinations) is not provided as part of the ordering process.

11.4 The price of a Product does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process, before you confirm your Order.
11.5 Our site contains a large number of Products. It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the Products on our site may be incorrectly priced.

We will not process your Order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the Order process, we will treat the Order as cancelled and notify you in writing.

13.1 Some of the Products we sell to you come with a manufacturer's guarantee. For details of the applicable terms and conditions, please refer to the manufacturer's guarantee provided with the Products.
13.2 A manufacturer's guarantee is in addition to, and does not affect, your legal rights in relation to Products that are faulty or not as described. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.

14.5 Despite any of the other provisions of this clause 14, if you do not return the Products to us at our request or you have altered the Products (including any packaging) in any way you shall be deemed to have accepted such Products as being in all respects in accordance with the Contract.

18.4 Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
18.5 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.
18.6 Please note that these Terms are governed by English law. This means a Contract for the purchase of Products through our site and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law.
