If for whatever reason you need to return an item, we are more than happy to offer a full refund or exchange providing the item/s are complete, in their original packaging, unmarked and it is within 7 days of the delivery date. This is as per the distance selling regulations. Please note that 'personalised' items (e.g. radios that have been programmed) and business to business transactions are excluded from this policy. Where equipment is damaged, marked/soiled or not eligible for a refund, but still returned to us, then a carriage charge of £9 + VAT would apply for return of the items.
Items returned within 7 - 30 days may be eligible for a refund, provided that they are in their original packaging, unmarked and it is within 30 days of the delivery date. The right to a refund after the statutory 7 day period is at our discretion and does exclude certain items. Please contact us for details. Where refunds are offered then we may, at our discretion, charge a restocking free - this is normally 15% of the total order value, or £9 + VAT (whichever is least). The restocking fee may also apply to personalised items, or business to business transactions, inside the 7 day rule.
We reserve the right to refuse any refunds on 'personalised' equipment, special order items, business-business orders - or where the equipment is not in a re-sell-able condition. Where equipment is damaged, marked/soiled or not eligible for a refund, but still returned to us, then a carriage charge of £9 + VAT would apply for return of the items to the customer/buyer.
As per the distance selling regulations; customers are expected to take reasonable care of the goods throughout the cancellation period. This includes retaining all packaging and literature, not removing hygiene seals and using the items only to the degree that is considered reasonable in order to assess the item(s). Items excessively used, or used beyond what we consider reasonable usage (for the purposes of assessment and testing) will not be considered for refund.
Items must be returned with any 'gifts', promotions, coupons or other items that formed part of the original contract of sale. Where these items have already been used/disposed of/redeemed then we reserve the right to deduct the equivalent value from any refund amount.
