is
given as to accuracy and no responsibility will be accepted for error or

import
duties, customs and excise duties or otherwise. The prices are based on
today's

accepted for any loss arising from delay or error in the delivery of the
goods.
All deliveries will be charged at the prevailing rates applying at the
date of
such delivery. Special rush deliveries can usually be arranged but will
usually
be subject to additional charges (e.g. rush print charges and rush
delivery
charges) that will be charged to you at current commercial rates. Lead

advised of the changes made. No printing will take place until Water
GP

processes utilised by Water GP Promotions Ltd and its suppliers, no
guarantee
can be given to match exactly pantone numbers or colour samples provided
by the
client. Water GP Promotions Ltd will endeavour to match as closely as
possible
to these colour references but cannot be held liable for any further

surcharge,

in the
carrying out of our obligations under the contract arising out of any
cause
outside our reasonable control or by inability to procure materials or
articles

we
shall be entitled by notice to terminate the contract in whole or in
part
without incurring any liability to you.
20. Refund policy. a) Sales to consumers. We hope you will be pleased
with your purchase. Should you wish to return anything bought from us, we
will be happy to refund or exchange a product provided it is in fully
resaleable condition. Returns should be made within a reasonable time
(usually 28 days) and in original, undamaged packaging.
If the product returned is not in fully resaleable condition or the
packaging is damaged, we reserve the right to refuse a refund on the item,
or deduct up to 20% of the original selling price from the refund amount.
This does not affect your statutory rights. We are unable to offer a refund
or exchange on personalised, made-to measure or perishable goods (such as
food, plants or flowers) unless they are faulty. b) Sales to businesses. In
respect of sales to businesses our usual refund policy does not apply and
products cannot be returned or exchanged unless faulty.
21. Customs duties and local taxes.
For delivery outside the European Union, you may be subject to import duties
and taxes which are levied once the package reaches the destination country.
Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control
over these charges and cannot predict what they may be.
Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so you should contact your
local customs office for further information. Additionally, please note that when
ordering from us, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with
all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods.
