All prices and charges on this website are quoted in UK pounds. All fitted furniture prices shown on the website are subject to VAT at 20%.

 

Delivery

​

We will deliver the goods you have ordered to the address you give us for delivery at the time you place your order.

 

We aim to deliver or enable you to collect your furniture within the time quoted on our website when you place your order. Please note, all delivery dates and leadtimes quoted are given in good faith and are approximate at the time of placing your order based on the estimated length of time that we believe we can deliver the order to you based on stock levels.

 

Where applicable, our expert Delivery Service team will carefully install your new furniture in your home, exactly where you want it (subject to access). It is your responsibility to remove the product from the packaging. Please fully check the product and in the unlikely event of any product being damaged or parts missing, please advise within 72 hours of delivery.

 

All deliveries will be pre-booked and must be signed for. If you are out when our delivery team arrives, they will leave a card with a contact number for you to call them and arrange a delivery at a future date. Please note that there will be an additional charge for failed delivery where the failure two deliver is no fault of Thomas James, or where less than 48 hours notice is given of a customer cancellation.

 

Cooling Off Period

 

Under the Consumer Rights Act of 2015, you are entitled to cancel your contract, but only if you exercise this right no longer than 14 days after the day on which goods are received. This is the statutory cooling off period. After this period has expired there is no right to cancel. Item(s) cannot be returned or cancelled after the 14-day cooling off period unless the item is confirmed as being defective.

 

Under UK law, the statutory cooling off period has certain exclusions:
 

- Bespoke items. These are goods that have been ordered to the unique and exact specifications of a customer. Simply selecting a colour from a range of colours available or your product being made to order does not make your furniture bespoke under this clause. We would make it perfectly clear to you when ordering a bespoke item that it is such and that it is excluded from the Consumer Rights Act. 
 

- Self-assembly items that have been damaged during assembly.
 

- Semi-fitted wardrobes assembled by us will warrant a variable cancellation charge on a case by case basis.

 

In order to exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us in writing via email including your order number as part of your correspondence.Your Cancellation is effective from the date We receive the correspondence.

 

If you decide to cancel after receipt of the item(s), it is your responsibility to return the goods to us at your own cost and in new condition. You are the owner of the furniture once it has been delivered to you. Failure to take reasonable care of the Goods may result in a claim against you. To minimise this risk, please ensure that you pack the Goods appropriately when you return them to us to prevent any damage during transportation. Alternatively, we do offer a collection service if you are unable to return your items. We charge a collection fee on a case by case quote based on product type, number of goods and location of collection - this will be 25% for each item returned to cover the cost of collecting the Goods, plus any claim for deterioration to condition.

 

This must be done within 14 days of notification of your decision to cancel the contract.

If you cancel the Contract we will:

 

- Refund the price you paid for the Goods. Note that we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by you handling them in a way which would not be permitted or if the returned Goods have not been looked after by you with reasonable care and are not in the condition that they were in when they were delivered to you, we reserve the right to deduct from your refund any loss of value to the goods as a result of your use or damage.

 

- Refund any delivery costs you have paid. Note that we are permitted by law to make a maximum refund equal to the cost of the least expensive common and generally acceptable delivery method we offer. We do not cover supplementary delivery costs above this amount where you have used another type of delivery.

 

- Make any refund in the same form of payment you originally used for the purchase of the Goods and within 30 days of the valid cancellation of contract. Refunds can take up to 7 (seven) working days depending on your bank. For further clarification on timings, please contact your card issuer.

 

Damaged or Defective Goods
 

Every effort will be made to ensure that the goods you have ordered arrive undamaged and without defect.
However if the goods are found to be either damaged or defective in any way at the time of delivery, you have the right to the reject or return the Goods for a full refund.

 

For faults that develop after 30 days of Delivery: In the unlikely event that one of our items is to develop a fault after 30 days, please contact us. Your options may vary depending on the individual circumstances including the length of time that you have had the item and the nature of the fault please contact us.

​

Non acceptance of an order by us
We reserve the right not to accept any Order request if:

  • We have insufficient stock to deliver the goods you have ordered

  • We do not deliver to your area;

  • One or more of the Goods ordered was incorrectly described or priced on the website;

  • The Goods are withdrawn from our catalogue

  • The payment transaction is not authorised

 

If we do reject your order we will notify you by email and will refund to you any sum paid by you to us in respect of the order as soon as possible, and in any event within 30 days of the cancellation of your order. We will not be obliged to offer any additional compensation for disappointment suffered.

Please note our obligations under a Contract will be suspended for the duration of the Event Outside Our Control.

 

Each section of these Terms operates separately. If any of these sections (or any part of any section) is found by any court or relevant authority to be unlawful or unenforceable, the other sections (or part of the section in question) shall not be affected and shall remain in full force and effect. If any section of these Terms is found to be unlawful or unenforceable but would be lawful and enforceable if some part of the section were deleted, the section in question shall apply with such deletion as may be necessary to make it lawful and enforceable.

 

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 do so only in writing, but that will not mean that we automatically waive any later default by you.

We may perform any of our obligations or exercise any of our rights under the Contract ourselves or where applicable, through any other persons (legal or otherwise) or entities.
