3 Ordering goods from us

Below, we set out how a legally binding contract between you and us is made.

You place an order on the site by going to justfans.co.uk. Please read and check your order carefully before submitting it. However, if you need to correct any errors you can do so before submitting it to us.

(1) When you place your order at the end of the online checkout process (eg when you click on the Confirm Order button), we will acknowledge it by email. This acknowledgement does not, however, mean that your order has been accepted.

we cannot authorise your payment

you are not allowed to buy the goods from us

we are not allowed to sell the goods to you

you have ordered too many goods

there has been a mistake on the pricing or description of the goods

a legally binding contract will be in place between you and us, and

we will dispatch the goods to you

If you are under the age of 18 you may buy any goods from the site.


4 Right to cancel this contract

You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day after the goods come into your possession, or the possession of the person you ask us to deliver them to.

To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (eg a letter sent by post, fax or email). You can use the model cancellation form set out in the box below, but it is not obligatory.









Cancellation form

To [insert the trader's name, geographical address and, where available, fax number and e-mail address]:

Ordered on [*]/received on [*],

Name of consumer(s),

Address of consumer(s),

Signature of consumer(s) (only if this form is notified on paper),

Date

[*] Delete as appropriate



To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired


Effects of cancellation

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).


We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.


We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than:

14 days after the day we received back from you any goods supplied, or (if earlier) 14 days after the day you provide evidence that you have returned the goods, or if there were no goods supplied, 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this contract.


We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.


If you have received goods:

you shall send back the goods without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation of this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired you will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.

You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.


5 Delivery

We use FedEx to deliver our goods. If you want to see your delivery options, visit our webpage 'Shipping & Returns' before you place your order.

If something happens which is outside of our control, and affects the estimated date of delivery

we will let you have a revised estimated date for delivery of the goods.

Unless you and we agree otherwise, if we cannot deliver your goods within 30 days, we will let you know, cancel your order, and give you a refund.

must pay for such goods within 14 days, or

must return them to us as soon as possible. If so, you must keep the goods in your possession, take reasonable care of them (including ensuring that you follow any instructions or manuals given with the goods) and not use them before you return them to us

If you do not return any goods (such as where you have not paid for them) we may collect the goods from you at your expense. We will try to contact you to let you know if we intend to do this.
