Orders

1. Your orders are an offer to purchase goods from us, we will confirm receipt of your order by sending you an email summarising the details of your order (‘Order Confirmation Email’) or otherwise confirming your order back to you; this is the point at which we accept your order and the contract is formed (subject to these General Terms & Conditions). The contract is completed when the goods are delivered (also subject to these General Terms & Conditions).

3. Amendments:

(a) we make no guarantees that once placed and paid for, an order can be amended. If you wish to amend an order you must notify us by phone as soon as possible and provided the order has not already been submitted to our Distribution Organiser we will try to amend it. We also reserve the right to cancel or amend your order before the goods are despatched if the goods are no longer in stock - we may substitute an item of equal or greater value than the original item listed, or issue a refund for the product. This applies to all items. Where we have substituted an item, you may elect to receive a refund rather than accepting the substitute item by emailing us at brewbabuoundle@gmail.com. We will make any refunds made under these General Terms & Conditions within 14 days of us receiving the item, or evidence of items acceptable to us, from you.
