Terms and Conditions

 

Customer Care

Our terms and conditions comply with UK legislation, including the Distance Selling Regulations. They are designed to ensure that Sewing-online customers can shop with us in safety and security. For your own reference, please feel free to print and keep a copy.

The reproduction of colours is as accurate as the photographic and production process will allow.

All measurements are approximate.

Sewing-online reserves the right to discontinue or change products and pricing without notice. Errors in pricing on the website are not binding and may be adjusted at any time. We do our best to make sure that prices are correctly shown but very occasionally an error may occur. If this should happen, we will correct the price and ask you to confirm whether you still wish to purchase the goods at the correct price. If we are unable to contact you, we will treat the order as cancelled. We will not accept an order if there is a pricing error.

We feature products that have been carefully selected for sale on the Sewing-online.com website. Once an item is sold out it will be taken off the website at the earliest opportunity and may not be available again. Goods are subject to availability. As there is a short delay between the time when your order is placed, and the time when the order is accepted, the stock position relating to particular items may change. If an item you have ordered becomes out of stock before we accept the order we shall notify you as soon as possible and you will be offered an alternative or a refund for the out of stock items.

If, due to unforeseen circumstances or in the event of supply difficulties, it is necessary to substitute an item, the item will be of equal or greater value than that which it replaces. We will reimburse you for the cost of returning substitute goods that you do not wish to accept.

 

Accepting Orders and Security

When you place an order we treat it as an offer to buy. If you enter a correct e-mail address we will send you an order acknowledgement e-mail. If we accept your order, we will also send you a confirmation e-mail with your order number, at which point we make a legal contract with you. However, we will be entitled to refuse to accept your order if we feel it necessary, in which case we will e-mail you as soon as we can to let you know.

In deciding whether to accept your order we may use the information you have given to us, or we already hold about you, or which we receive from any enquiry we may make with external agencies to confirm your identity. This assists us to protect you and us from fraudulent transactions. If we decline your offer on security grounds we may contact you to seek an alternative payment method.

Please enter your address details carefully as we cannot be held responsible for missing/incorrect address information.
