4. YOUR RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER
   As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Products we sell to you on our site that are faulty or not as described. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office. Nothing in these Terms will affect your legal rights.
5. THE PRODUCTS
1. We try to make sure that all information on our site, including descriptions of our Products, and listed prices, are accurate and correct at all times. However, mistakes do happen. We will try to resolve all information errors on our site as soon as reasonably possible, and if we reasonably think that such an error has affected your purchase of Products we will try to let you know.
2. The Products images on our site are for illustrative purposes only. Although we make every effort to display colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that the colours displayed on our site accurately reflect the colour of the Products.
3. The description of the Products on our site is approximate only. Whilst we make every effort to be as accurate as possible on our site in the description of the Products (including, without limitation, the size, weight, capacities and dimensions of the Products), any description is approximate only.
4. The packaging of the Products may vary from that shown in the images on our site.
5. All Products shown on our site are subject to availability. We will inform you by e-mail as soon as possible if the Product you have ordered is not available. If the Product you ordered is not available, we will not process your order.
6. PRICE OF THE PRODUCTS AND DELIVERY CHARGES
1. The prices of the Products will be as quoted on our site from time to time. Please see clause 6.5 for information about price errors on our site. 
2. Prices for our Products may change from time to time. Any changes to the price of Products on our site will not affect any order for Product(s) which we have confirmed to you with a Dispatch Confirmation.
3. All prices are, unless otherwise stated, inclusive of VAT at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Products in full before the change in VAT takes effect.
4. The price of a Product does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as quoted on our site from time to time. For full delivery terms and conditions, please see our Delivery and Returns Policy.
5. Our site contains a large number of Products. It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the Products on our site may be incorrectly priced. If we discover an error in the price of the Products you have ordered we will contact you to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing. Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
7. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US
1. Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please take the time to read and check your order before submitting it. If you submit an order to us which contains an error, please contact us at derwent.orders@acco.com or call us on 01900 609585 as soon as possible to correct the error. We will try to correct any error in the order submitted by you before it is processed, but we cannot guarantee this.
2. After you place an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. This order acknowledgement does not mean that your order has been accepted by us; your order only constitutes an offer to purchase Products from us, and does not form a binding contract until accepted by us. Where you order more than one Product your order contains a series of offers for each Product individually.
3. An offer made by you to purchase Products shall only be deemed to be accepted by us when we dispatch the Product(s) to you and send you an e-mail to confirm that the Products have been dispatched (Dispatch Confirmation). We reserve the right to refuse any offers in an Order prior to acceptance.
4. If we are unable to supply you with a Product (for example because that Product is not in stock, no longer available or because of an error in the price on our site) we will inform you of this by e-mail and we will not process your order. If you have already paid for the Products, at your option, we will either:
1. refund you the full amount as soon as possible and in any event, within 14 days of our e-mail notification to you; or
2. offer to send you the Product as soon as it becomes available
8. PAYMENT
1. We must receive full payment of the price of the Products and all applicable delivery charges before we can accept any offers. If you cancel a Contract, you may be entitled to a refund (please see clause 10 of these Terms).
2. Where you select to pay by credit or debit card, we will process the payment at the time of preparing your Products for dispatch.
3. If you do not make any payment due to us by the due date for payment, we may:
1. immediately terminate the Contract between us. We will contact you in writing to let you know that the Contract has been terminated; and
2. charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 3% a year above the base lending rate of our bank from time to time. This interest will accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgement. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
4. If you dispute any payment you have made to us in good faith and contact us to let us know promptly after you have made the payment that you dispute, clause 8.3(b) will not apply for the period of the dispute.
9. DELIVERY
1. We can deliver products internationally; please see our Delivery and Returns Policy for more information, including charges and delivery times.
2. Your order will be fulfilled by the estimated delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation, unless there is a Force Majeure event. If we are unable to meet the estimated delivery date because of a Force Majeure event, we will contact you with a revised estimated delivery date.
3. Delivery will be completed when we deliver the Products to the address you gave us in accordance with our Delivery and Returns Policy. If no one is available at your address to take delivery after 3 attempts the Product(s) will be returned to us (this may vary internationally). If the Product is returned to us pursuant to this clause 9.3 of these Terms, we will refund you for the price of the Product in full within 14 days of the Product being returned to us. For the avoidance of doubt, any refund under this clause 9.3 will not include the delivery charge that you paid for the delivery of the Product(s).

5. If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and any written waiver does not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

However, if you are a resident of Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are a resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.
