Terms Of Sale

The presentation of products within our website does not constitute a binding offer for us to sell those products. Your offer to buy such products from us may or may not be accepted.

We accept no responsibility for any actual losses or consequential losses, financial or otherwise, arising from our failure to supply any of our products, beyond any monies paid for such products.

All products remain the property of Beads And More Limited until full payment has been made and all goods have been successfully delivered. We reserve the right to cancel any order at any time prior to receipt of goods by you.

Description & Price Of Goods

Every effort is made to ensure that the descriptions of the products within our website are accurate. Due to the variability of our products, we make no guarantee as to the accuracy of size, colour, materials or colour durability of our products. Delivered weights may vary but will at least exceed the weight specified. In particular, we make no guarantee that the colour or appearance of products, as seen on any computer screen, is an exact replication of the colour or appearance of any product you may receive from us.

While many products have been sold to us in good faith as having gemmological qualities, we have not carried out any gemmological tests on our products and make no guarantee as to the gemmological quality, accuracy or resale value of our products. Additionally, reference to precious or semi-precious stones is for qualitative appearance and colour comparison only.

All sizes are quoted in millimetres or metres. All weights are quoted in grams or kilograms. All prices as quoted in GB Pounds and do not attract UK VAT.

We reserve the right to change availability, pricing, description or any other attribute of our products without prior notice.

While we endeavour to dispatch your goods within one working day from receipt of payment and arrange for them to be delivered to you within one to two working days from dispatch, we cannot guarantee the timescale of any dispatch or delivery of orders.

We shall refund goods for any reason for up to 14 days after your order has been delivered. Following this period, we shall offer a replacement for goods which are faulty or damaged or a refund where stock is unavailable. We reserve the right to offer a refund for goods on a discretionary basis.

To obtain a refund for your order, you must complete the slip attached to the invoice accompanying your delivery and return it to us with the goods for which you are claiming a refund or replacement.
