This is how you act

When you are ready to order, you go to the “checkout”, where you enter your name, address, e-mail, telephone no. and desired form of payment.
You can change the contents of the shopping basket right up until you confirm your purchase by pressing the “Order and pay” button. The order for the total Delivery is then sent.


When you have ordered an item from the Seller, you will receive an order confirmation from us on the e-mail you have specified.
Note – The seller reserves the right for typing errors, price changes, sold-out or discontinued items. The seller also reserves the right for inaccuracies in image reproductions.

Payment

To shop at groundplug.co.uk, you must be 18 years of age and in possession of a valid payment card that the Seller accepts.
The seller receives the following payment card: Dankort/Visa-Dankort, VISA, Euro/Mastercard Maestro.

Security

Communication between the payment system and the cardholder takes place via an encrypted SSL connection (Secure Socket Layer). The payment card you use must be your own payment card. All credit/debit card holders will be subject to validation and approval by the card issuer. If the issuer of that payment card declines the payment, the Seller will not be responsible for any delays or non-delivery of your order. In the event that your payment card’s approval and validation expires, the Seller reserves the right to cancel your order. Payment will only be debited from your account when the Delivery is dispatched.

Freight rates

All prices are incl. VAT and excl. package and shipping costs. The shipping price will only be calculated immediately before you are ready to pay.

Delivery will be made at the prices in force at the time of delivery and which appear in the Seller’s price list, unless a fixed price has been agreed between the parties.

The seller reserves the right to change the price if, before delivery, new or increased costs are imposed, for example, but not limited to, as a result of changes in taxes, duties, customs, exchange rates, raw material prices or other documented price increases from suppliers. Seller reserves the right to impose administrative fees for orders below a certain amount, wasted runs, special packaging or shipping and other similar conditions.

Delivery

The Seller packs the ordered products within 2 days after the Seller has received your order (before 2pm), if the products are in the Seller’s warehouse. Seller always arranges delivery with the fastest package distributor based on your address. Timely delivery requires that the freight company complies with day-to-day delivery. When your order has been shipped, you will receive an expected delivery date and a tracking number. If there are delays with the shipping company, this will correspondingly delay the delivery in relation to the desired delivery date. The seller cannot be held responsible for delays with the shipping company.


If there are changes in connection with the delivery, we will send you an email with the new delivery date.

Right of withdrawal

There is a 14-day right of return on the purchased products (the Delivery), calculated from the day they are received. In order to exercise the right of withdrawal, you must notify us in a clear and distinct manner that you regret the purchase no later than 14 days after you have received the Delivery. It is you as the buyer who must document that you have notified the Seller of the cancellation in a timely manner. We therefore encourage you to send us a message by email to shopuk@groundplug.com.


If you choose to cancel a purchase, you must return the Delivery no later than 14 days after the expiry of the return period. When the Seller has received the Delivery back and approved it, the Seller will refund the purchase price to your account within 2-7 business days.


The Seller has the right to withhold the refund until the Seller has received the Delivery back, unless you, as the buyer, have provided documentation that you have returned it before then.


If the Delivery consists of several different products which have been ordered as a single order, but are delivered individually, the period runs from the receipt of the last product.

The seller must emphasize that you as a buyer may lose your purchase price, in whole or in part. This can happen if the value of the returned products has deteriorated, for example as a result of:

  • The delivered products/Delivery have actually been used, and this has led to a deterioration in the value of the goods.
  • The delivered products/Delivery have been damaged while in the buyer’s custody.
  • The buyer has handled the delivered products/the Delivery in a different way than was necessary and normal in order for you as the buyer to be able to determine the nature of the products, their properties and the way in which the Delivery works. As a general rule, the seller therefore does not recommend that you break the original packaging if you, as a buyer, wish to make use of your right of withdrawal.
