2.6 If you have any concerns about material on our site, please contact us by email via the contact page.

2.8 These terms, together with our current website prices, delivery details, contact details and data protection and privacy policy, set out the whole of our agreement relating to the supply of the goods to you by Hus & Hem.

3. Ordering From Us

3.1 You are deemed to place an order with us by ordering via our online checkout process. As part of our checkout process you will be given the opportunity to check your order and to correct any errors. We will send you an order acknowledgement, detailing the products you have ordered.

3.2 Our acceptance of an order takes place when delivery is made. When delivery has taken place the contract will be made, unless we have notified you that we do not accept your order or you have cancelled your order:

3.3. We may refuse to accept an order:

a. Where goods, services or information ordered by you are not available;

b. Where we cannot obtain authorisation for your payment;

c. If there has been a pricing or product description error; or

d. If you do not meet any eligibility criteria set out in our terms and conditions;

e. If we do not deliver to your area.

3.4 Where we do not accept your order but have processed your payment, we will re-credit your account with any amount deducted by us from your debit or credit card as soon as possible, but in any event within 30 days of your order. We will not be obliged to pay any additional amount as compensation for disappointment.

3.5 We cannot guarantee that colours in the website are fully equivalent to the item’s actual colour. This depends partly on the colour settings of your computer and monitor. Product packaging may vary to that displayed online.

3.6 For all items made from a natural material, such as stone, fleece, fabric, leather, glass or wood, or that involve hand craftsmanship, it is not possible to guarantee the goods supplied will have the exact colour, shade and pattern or finish as shown on the website. Please only order if you are fully confident of the finishes, sizes and colours of the product you have chosen. Samples may be available on request.

3.7 Products made from fabric, such as wash bags, cushions, tea towels etc may have a different pattern placement to that shown online, and therefore may vary from the image shown online.

3.8 When ordering fabric we recommend customers order a sample of fabric before purchasing. Images online are as accurate as possible to match the product, but computer monitors vary greatly. Samples are intended as a representation of colour and texture only, and will not show the whole design. Fabric roll batch variations can occur. If time has passed between receiving a sample and placing your order, we recommend you request a cutting from a current batch. Natural fabric will often have small slubs within the weave. This is not considered to be a fault but part of the charm of the fabric. On receiving your fabric please inspect carefully before cutting, as cut lengths cannot be returned, nor can we be held responsible for any making up costs of curtains, blinds or upholstery. If fabric is being sent directly to a third party, i.e. a curtain maker, we recommend that they have a sample of the fabric. It is the customers’ responsibility to check that the correct design and colourway has been received. Once cut or handed to a third party we cannot accept responsibility for any errors that may occur.

3.9 Payment is taken at the time your order is placed. We endeavour to display through this website all items in our current range. We aim to hold stock of all styles and sizes whilst a product is active. We list availability information for products sold by us on the website on each product page.

3.10 In the unfortunate event that an item is out of stock you will be notified immediately via email informing you of when the item will be available. If you do not agree to the revised delivery date you have the right to cancel your order if the item is unavailable and receive a refund.

3.11 Where the supply of your product(s) or service(s) is delayed or prevented for reasons beyond our control (for example, material shortages, import delays or higher than anticipated demand) we will make every effort to keep you informed but shall be under no liability to you for such delay or failure.

3.12 Placing an order

3.12.1 You are making no obligation when viewing or browsing this website to place an order. Users may browse our website for free.

3.12.2 If you wish to purchase goods shown, you may do so by clicking 'Add to Basket'.

3.12.4 No commitment is made when adding goods to your 'bag'. At any time prior to payment, you may delete any item in your 'bag' or amend the quantity selected.

3.12.5 When you have completed your selection you may click the 'checkout' button at the bottom of your 'bag'.

3.12.6 At the check out stage you will be asked to log into your account if you are already registered, sign up to create an account or check out as a guest. You will now be asked to enter your billing address, delivery address and contact details.

4. Pricing

4.1 All prices and charges on the Website are shown in UK pounds sterling, and exclude the cost of delivery.

4.2 All prices include VAT (where applicable) at the current rates. We reserve the right to express the price exclusive of VAT, but we shall show VAT separately and include it in the total price.

4.3 Where we charge separately for packing, carriage and insurance and other relevant charges, the appropriate rates are set out in our specified pricing structure shown elsewhere on this Website.

4.4 Our prices are reviewed regularly and may change without prior notice at any time. This may occur in the event of a change in the rate of VAT, change in supplier price, and currency rate fluctuations.

4.5 Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items on our website may be incorrectly priced. We will verify pricing when processing your order and before we take payment. If we have made a mistake and a product's correct price is higher than the price on the website, we will contact you before dispatch to request whether you want to buy the product at the correct price or cancel your order for a refund. If a product's correct price is lower than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount and send you the Product.
