How the contract for the goods is formed between you and us
After placing your order you will receive an automated acknowledgement. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm acceptance to you by confirming that your order has been despatched. Once we accept your order, a contract to purchase and deliver goods takes effect between you and Sugar Suppliers Limited.
The contract to sell goods to you only relates to those goods listed in the confirmation email. We will not be obliged to sell any other goods which may have been part of your order until the despatch of your goods has been confirmed in a separate confirmation email.
You will not be charged before we despatch the goods; however upon receipt of your order we will create an authorisation.
Our Goods
A description of the main characteristics of goods can be found on the item listing page.
Prices for goods on the listing pages include all UK taxes.
Prices and offers may vary and may only be available for limited periods. All prices and offers are subject to availability and may be withdrawn or amended at our discretion.
Ebay contains a large number of our goods for sale at one time and it is possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the goods listed may be incorrectly priced. If we discover an error in the price of the goods you have ordered we will inform you as soon as possible. We will give you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or cancelling it.
We are under no obligation to sell incorrectly priced goods to you at the incorrect price if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as an error.
Goods being delivered by us will be at your sole risk from the time of delivery to you.
Feedback
We use the automated eBay feedback response system. If you are happy with the product, please leave positive feedback and we will automatically leave positive feedback in return.
If you are unhappy with the transaction for any reason, please contact us first to resolve. If you do leave negative or neutral feedback you waive your rights for support regarding any problems with us and open yourself up for possible retaliatory negative feedback.
We prefer to work through issues collaboratively, so please avoid making negative feedback remarks and contact us initially if you have any problems,

Delivery
Delivery costs are additional to the displayed price. Charges will be confirmed to you, before your order is accepted.

We always aim to despatch all goods in stock as quickly as possible. The maximum UK delivery lead time for goods is 30 days unless specifically agreed with you.

The couriers will attempt re-delivery up to a maximum of three (3) times and if delivery is not successful after the third attempt they will return the goods to us and we will issue a refund. We reserve the right to re-charge the delivery cost for re-delivery.
Our Returns Policy
You may cancel your order any time within seven (7) working days, beginning on the day after you received the goods.
We will refund the price of the goods in full if delivered as received, however as the delivery costs originally paid are non-retrievable, we are unable to refund shipping costs.
If a refund is payable to you we will process the refund as soon as possible, and, in any case within thirty (30) days of the day you gave written notice of cancellation.
To cancel an order you must return the goods to us immediately. The goods must be returned in the same condition in which you received them, and they will be returned at your own cost and risk. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the goods while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation. This applies to all goods that are returned.
Our returns policy does not affect your statutory rights. If you return goods claiming they are defective, we will examine the returned goods and will notify you of your refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time. We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case within thirty (30) days of the day we confirm via e-mail that you are entitled to a refund for defective goods.
Any orders for personalised goods are non-returnable. Please note that this does not affect your statutory rights.
If a refund is payable to you, we will use the same method used by you to pay for your order. Please communicate through the listing for return address.
