    1. You must dispatch items as soon as is reasonably possible upon receipt of payment from a Buyer under Clause 12, taking into account the nature of the item(s) in question, preparation time and, where relevant, manufacturing time (if items are made or customised to order).  Unless your Listing has stated otherwise, or unless the Buyer has agreed otherwise, you must dispatch items no later than 2 working days after the date on which the sale takes place.

    2. You must ensure that you dispatch items to the correct address provided by the Buyer. It is your responsibility to ensure that the address that you use exactly matches that provided by the Buyer. If items dispatched do not reach the Buyer due to an incorrect address provided by the Buyer, it is the Buyer's responsibility and not yours.

    3. You are free to determine the delivery charges for your items; however, delivery charges must be reasonable, not excessive, and must genuinely reflect the actual cost to you of delivering the item in question to the Buyer.

    4. You must provide an accurate ships-from address in any listings that you make.

    7. Once an item has been dispatched to a Buyer, you must inform the Buyer. Our Marketplace enables you to do this by way of a system generated email once you have flagged an item as dispatched. You must not describe an item as dispatched until it actually has been. We strongly recommend that tracking numbers are entered at the time of marking an item as dispatched.

    8. Our Marketplace allows you to share tracking information obtained from a postal or delivery service with Buyers. By sharing such information, you are giving Us your permission to collect and use it to provide Our service, and to share it with the Buyer.

    9. You must comply with any and all applicable shipping and customs regulations when delivering items to Buyers. It is your responsibility to check, be aware of, understand, and comply with all such regulations.

  16. Buyers' Rights to Cancel and Return Items

    1. Buyers who are consumers (that is, not businesses) based in the European Union may be entitled to a "cooling-off" period within which they may cancel their contract with you and return an item for any reason. If applicable, the cooling-off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which the Buyer (or someone nominated by the Buyer) receives the item.

    2. The cooling-off period does not apply in the following circumstances:

      1. If the item is sealed for health or hygiene reasons, and the Buyer has unsealed the item after receiving it; or

      2. If the item consists of sealed audio or video recordings (e.g. CD or DVD) or sealed computer software, and the Buyer has unsealed the item after receiving it; or

      3. If the item is digital content and it has been downloaded or otherwise accessed by the Buyer; or

      4. If the item is likely to deteriorate quickly, for example flowers or food; or

      5. If the item has been personalised or made-to-order for the Buyer; or

      6. If the item has been inseparably mixed with another item or other items (according to their nature) after the Buyer has received it.

    3. If a Buyer exercises their right to cancel during the cooling-off period, they must inform you of that decision within the cooling-off period. The Buyer may do so in any way they wish, however for convenience We provide a cancellation form on Our Site. Cancellation by email or by post is effective from the date on which the Buyer sends you their message. Please note that the cooling-off period lasts for whole calendar days. If, for example, the Buyer sends you an email or letter by 23:59:59 on the final day of the cooling-off period, their cancellation will be valid and must be accepted.

    4. Items must be returned to you by the Buyer no more than 14 calendar days after the day on which the Buyer informs you that they wish to cancel. The Buyer will be responsible for the costs of returning items to you if they cancel under the cooling-off period.

    5. When a Buyer cancels under the cooling-off period, you must issue a refund equivalent to the price paid for the items and the standard carriage cost to deliver the item to the buyer, within 14 calendar days of the following:

      1. The day on which you receive the item(s) back; or

      2. The day on which the Buyer informs you (supplying evidence) that they have sent the item(s) back (if this is earlier than the day under sub-Clause 16.5.1); or

      3. If you have not yet dispatched the item(s), the day on which the Buyer informs you that they wish to cancel.

    6. You may make certain limited deductions from refunds under this Clause 16 as follows:

      1. You may reduce a refund for any diminished value in an item resulting from the Buyer's excessive handling of it (e.g. handling going beyond that which would be permitted in a shop); and/or

      2. You are only required by law to reimburse standard delivery charges. If a Buyer has chosen a premium delivery method, you are only required to reimburse them for the equivalent of standard delivery.

  17. Problems with Transactions and Buyers' Rights

    1. By law, you must provide goods and/or digital content that are/is of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, as described at the time of purchase, in accordance with any pre-contract information that you provide to the Buyer, and that matches any samples or models that you have shown to the Buyer (unless you have made the Buyer aware of any differences).

    2. If items do not conform with the requirements outlined in sub-Clause 17.1 and, for example, have faults or are damaged when the Buyer receives them, the Buyer must contact you as soon as reasonably possible to inform you of the problem. The following remedies will be available to the Buyer:

      1. Beginning on the day that the Buyer receives the item(s), if the item(s) is/are goods, the Buyer has a 30-calendar day right to reject them and to receive a full refund if they do not conform.

      2. If the Buyer does not wish to reject the item(s), if the 30-calendar day rejection period does not apply, or if it has expired, the Buyer may request a repair or replacement. You must bear the costs and must carry out the repair or replacement within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to the Buyer. If either a repair or a replacement is impossible or disproportionately difficult, you may offer the Buyer the alternative option (i.e. a replacement instead of a repair or vice versa) or a full refund. If the Buyer requests a repair or replacement during the 30-calendar day rejection period, that period will be suspended while you carry out the repair or replacement and will resume on the day that the Buyer receives the replacement or repaired item(s). If less than 7 calendar days remain out of the original period, it will be extended to 7 calendar days.

      3. If, after a repair or replacement, the item(s) still do not conform (or if you cannot repair or replace it/them, as described above, or if you have failed to act within a reasonable time or without significant inconvenience to the Buyer), the Buyer may have the right to keep the item(s) at a reduced price, or to reject it/them in exchange for a refund.

    3. If the Buyer exercises the final right to reject the item(s) more than six months after receiving it/them, you may reduce any refund to reflect the use that the Buyer has had out of it/them.

    4. Please note that Buyers will not be eligible to claim under this Clause 17 in the following circumstances:

      1. you inform the Buyer of any fault(s), damage, or other problems with the item(s) before the Buyer purchases them and it is because of that/those same issue(s) that the Buyer subsequently wishes to return them;

      2. the Buyer has purchased the item(s) for an unsuitable purpose that is neither obvious nor made known to you and the problem has resulted from the Buyer's use of the item(s) for that purpose; or

      3. the problem is the result of normal wear and tear, misuse, or intentional or careless damage.

      4. We provide a cancellation form on Our Site for Buyers to use when returning items. The costs of returning items to you under this Clause 17 should be covered by you, reimbursing the Buyer where necessary.

    5. Refunds (whether full or partial, including reductions in price) under this Clause 17 must be issued within 14 calendar days of the day on which you agree that the Buyer is entitled to a refund.

    6. Any and all refunds under this Clause 17 must include all delivery costs paid by the Buyer when the item(s) was/were originally purchased.

    7. Further information on legal rights can be obtained from your local or Trading Standards Office.

  18. Further Transaction Cancellation Rights

    1. You have the right to cancel a transaction and issue a full refund of any sums paid (including delivery charges) in the following circumstances:

      1. You and the Buyer have mutually agreed to cancel the transaction before the item(s) is/are dispatched;

      2. You and the Buyer have mutually agreed to cancel the transaction following receipt by the Buyer of the item(s) and the Buyer has returned the item(s) to you;

      3. The Buyer has not paid; or

      4. You have chosen to refuse service to the Buyer.

    1. You may close your Account and cancel your agreement with Us by emailing [email protected].

    3. If We have done something wrong, you may be entitled to cancel and receive a refund of certain sums paid for services that have not been provided to you. You may also be entitled to compensation. This may apply in the following circumstances:

  24. Data Protection

    1. All personal information that We may use will be collected, processed, and held in accordance with the provisions of EU Regulation 2016/679 General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") and your rights under the GDPR.

    2. For complete details of Our collection, processing, storage, and retention of personal data including, but not limited to, the purpose(s) for which personal data is used, the legal basis or bases for using it, details of your rights and how to exercise them, and personal data sharing (where applicable), please refer to Our Privacy Policy <>.

    3. As a Seller, you will also collect, hold, and process Buyers' personal information in the course of transactions (for example, buyers' names, email addresses, and postal addresses). You must have your own privacy policy in place to govern your collection, processing, and holding of Buyers' personal data. Sellers are, therefore, also considered data controllers under the GDPR and you will be responsible for complying with your legal obligations and protecting Buyers' rights under the GDPR. You must only use the personal data of other Users (whether they are Buyers or Sellers) to the extent necessary to complete a transaction, to communicate about a specific transaction, to communicate via Our Marketplace, and/or to respond to messages from them. You may not add any User to a mailing list or use their data for marketing without their prior consent. You may not retain any Buyers payment details. You may only use another User's personal data for additional purposes with their consent.

    4. If a Seller and Us are found to be joint data controllers of any Buyers' personal data, and We are sued, fined, or otherwise incur any expense because of something you have done with a Buyer's personal data, you agree to indemnify Us for any expenses incurred by Us in connection with your actions in respect of that personal data. Further details of the requirements of the GDPR can be obtained from the Information Commissioner's Office.

  25. Other Important Terms

    1. We may transfer (assign) Our obligations and rights under these Terms for Sellers to a third party (this may happen, for example, if We sell Our business).  If this occurs, you will be informed by Us in writing.  Your rights under these Terms for Sellers will not be affected and Our obligations under these Terms for Sellers will be transferred to the third party who will remain bound by them.

    2. You may not transfer (assign) your obligations and rights under these Terms for Sellers without Our express written permission.

    3. If any of the provisions of these Terms for Sellers are found to be unlawful, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by any court or other authority, that / those provision(s) shall be deemed severed from the remainder of these Terms for Sellers.  The remainder of these Terms for Sellers shall be valid and enforceable.

    4. No failure or delay by Us in exercising any of Our rights under these Terms for Sellers means that We have waived that right, and no waiver by Us of a breach of any provision of these Terms for Sellers means that We will waive any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision.

    5. We may revise these Terms for Sellers from time to time in response to changes in relevant laws and other regulatory requirements. If any changes to these Terms for Sellers are to your material disadvantage, you may cancel as set out in sub-Clause 19.3.3.
