3. How the contract is formed between you and us
3.1 After placing an order online, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a product (Product) and/or services (Services) from our site. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an email that confirms that the Product has been dispatched (Dispatch Confirmation) or the Services will be performed, as the case may be.

You must also ensure that if this address and/or the delivery address changes between submitting your order and delivery of the Product(s) by us to you (or to your customer, in the case of dropshipping), you advise us of the new address(es). We will not be responsible for failure to perform under these Terms and Conditions where such failure is attributable to a change of address.

Orders are download from 6.30pm every business day and most dropship orders will be shipped the two to three business days after payment has been received; we aim to ship all other orders (including bulk / wholesale orders) within four (5) business days’ of the order being placed, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
5.2 We will arrange for delivery of the Products ordered by you by the method (if applicable) and to the address which you specify in the check out procedure.

This is normally via courier (even if you have selected a Royal Mail service).
