SALE

We are unfortunately unable to offer to refund the price difference should you have ordered before the prices were reduced further. If your items are still available, you are welcome to place a new order with the current pricing and return the original order for a refund within 14 days of receipt. For more information on returns please click here.

 

ACCEPTANCE OF YOUR ORDER

Once you have made your choice and placed your order with Lulu Guinness Limited, you will receive an email acknowledging the details of your order including your order reference number. This email is neither an acceptance of your order or a proof of purchase, just a confirmation that we have received the order.

Your contract to purchase the items is not complete until we send you an email notifying you that your order has been dispatched to you. The sale contract is therefore concluded in London, England and the language of the contract is English. We reserve the right not to accept your order in the event, for example, that we are unable to obtain authorization for payment, that the item ordered is out of stock or does not satisfy our quality control standards and is withdrawn, or that you do not meet the eligibility criteria set out within the TOS.

We may also refuse to process, and therefore refuse to accept, a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of our withdrawing any merchandise from the Site whether or not that merchandise has been sold; removing, screening or editing any materials or content on the Site; refusing to process a transaction or unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

 

PAYMENT

Payment can be made by Visa, Visa Electron, MasterCard, American Express, Delta, and Maestro debit cards and any other methods which may be clearly advertised on the Site from time to time. Payment will be debited and cleared from your account after receipt of your order by Lulu Guinness Limited.

You confirm that the credit/debit card that is being used is yours or that you have been specifically authorized by the owner of the credit/debit card to use it. All credit/debit card holders are subject to validation checks and authorization by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorize payment to Lulu Guinness Limited, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

We take all reasonable care to make our Site secure. All credit card transactions on this site are processed using Datacash, a secure online payment gateway that encrypts your card details in a secure host environment. We do not store your credit or debit card details on our site, so returning customers will need to enter all card details each time an order is placed.

To help ensure that your shopping experience is safe, simple and secure Lulu Guinness Limited uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. This encrypts and protects the data you send to us over the internet. If SSL is enabled, when you are on the basket or checkout pages, you will see a padlock at the top of your browser. You will also notice that on the basket or checkout pages the URL location will begin ‘https:’ rather than the standard ‘http:’. This means you are in a secure mode.

Furthermore, we will take all reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order and payment secure, but in the absence of negligence on our part we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorized access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the Site.

 

INSURANCE AND DELIVERY

Lulu Guinness Limited is legally responsible for your order only until it leaves our warehouse. The delivery contract is between you (the customer) and our designated courier service. The courier company insures each purchase during the time it is in transit until it is delivered to your specified delivery address. The courier driver will normally require a signature for any goods delivered. Please note If a delivery has been attempted by the courier company and is unsuccessful, they may deliver to a close neighbor, leave your item in a safe place or leave a calling card and attempt to redeliver the next working day. Failing this, you will be responsible for retrieving the undelivered parcels or arranging a further redelivery. These delivery rules apply to orders you delivered to a recipient who is not you (for example as a gift).

Please note that we aim to dispatch all orders within 72 hours of payment being cleared. But estimated delivery times are to be used as a guide only and commence from the date of dispatch. Lulu Guinness Limited is not responsible for any delays including those caused by destination customs clearance processes. During periods of high volume of orders (e.g. SALE or Christmas) delivery times may be longer.

  

TRACKING YOUR ORDER

You can check the current status of your shipment by following the instructions on your dispatch email. You will be directed to the DHL Website where if you enter the tracking number of your shipment you will see its status. Please wait four hours from receipt of your dispatch email and using the tracking tool.

 

GIFT RETURNS

Items can only be returned by the original purchaser. If you have received a Lulu Guinness product as a gift, you will need to contact the giver for them to return the product.

  

FAULTY GOODS

Goods are faulty if they are received damaged or where a manufacturing fault occurs within 12 months of purchase. Please note that items that are damaged as a result of normal wear and tear are not considered to be faulty. If you would like to exchange a faulty item (instead of obtaining a refund), please be aware that we can only replace it for the same product, subject to availability. If the same product is not available, you are entitled to a full refund provided the item is within the 12 month warranty period.

We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the colors of our products that appear on Lulu Guinness Limited. However, as the color calibration of computer monitors vary, we cannot guarantee that your monitor's display of any color will be completely accurate.
