LampsMart is committed to providing our customers with the highest quality products and service. However, on rare occasions, products may be found to be faulty or defective. In such cases we offer the returns facilities described below.

8.2

Unless otherwise stated in the manufacturer's documentation, all goods delivered to a UK mainland address carry a specified manufacturer's warranty.

8.3

If you purchase goods in the course of your business, the following provisions of this Clause shall apply. Other than the express provisions set out in these terms and conditions, all other terms and the implied terms or warranties relating to the supply of goods are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. Goods are not tested or sold as being fit for any particular application or for use under specific conditions, unless expressly agreed in writing.

8.4

If you purchase services in the course of your business, the following provisions of this Clause shall apply. LampsMart shall use its skill and expertise to carry out any contracted works (the "Service(s)") to a standard equivalent to that of a competent professional, and shall warrant our work as free from defects, for a period of 30 days after completion. In particular, we cannot be held responsible for any fault or damage not caused by LampsMart's employees or its contracted agents. In the event of a claim arising relating to the level of skill and judgement applied in the course of providing Services, LampsMart reserves at its sole discretion the right to appoint an independent expert in the field to appraise the work carried out in the execution of the Service(s). Additionally, LampsMart cannot be held responsible for equipment installed or configured when the equipment has subsequently been altered or configured by persons other than LampsMart. Except as set out here, all other express or implied terms or warranties relating to the Services are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law.

8.5

Subject to the right of Consumers to return goods for refund under The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 (see Clause 13), LampsMart does not sell products on a trial basis. Customers are strongly advised to check suitability and specifications of products before ordering. In some instances, Customers may benefit from special price discounts issued by a manufacturer specifically for their benefit. Such goods are not returnable to the manufacturer and may not be sold to other customers. Accordingly, orders for such goods can not be cancelled and LampsMart can only return or repair Goods where they prove to be defective and the Goods are returned for repair or replacement.

8.6

In the event that LampsMart, at its discretion (unless the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 apply, see Clause 13), agrees to accept the return for credit of unwanted products, the goods must be returned with LampsMart's prior written agreement within 14 days of delivery. The goods must be unopened, with the manufacturers seals intact and in perfect re-saleable condition All goods returned in these circumstances (except where the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 apply, see Clause 13) will be subject to a 25% re-stocking fee of LampsMart's sale price for the goods. Please ensure that the product(s) you have purchased are to your specification prior to breaking the manufacturers seals. This will avoid disappointment and the product(s) being rejected, should you wish to return them.

8.7

No contract shall be cancelled once accepted by LampsMart nor shall any Goods which are delivered in accordance with the contract be returned without prior written approval of LampSmart and on terms to be determined at the absolute discretion of LampsMart.

Authorised product returns must be sent to: LampsMart Returns, 6 Barcombe Avenue, Seaford, East Sussex, BN25 4DS, UK

b)

A Goods Returns Authorisation Number (RAN) must be obtained from LampsMart for each and every return so that we are able to administratively process your return, otherwise we have no means of identifying the Goods being returned. This will avoid difficulties in returning monies. The RAN must be clearly shown on each parcel returned, and must be in the original manufacturer's packaging (which shall not be defaced) complete with accessories, manuals and documentation. Except in the case of faulty Goods, returned items not complying with these requirements will be rejected.

c)

LampsMart cannot accept liability for packages damaged during transit from the Customer. It is the Customer's responsibility to wrap the product adequately to prevent damage.

d)

Proof of postage is not proof of delivery and you are therefore strongly advised to send your package by recorded delivery, registered post or courier, and to insure the goods for their full value.

e)

On receipt of the returned product will be tested, if it is found to be in good working order without defect, we will return the product to you, and the carriage costs of this return will be your responsibility. Please note that if you have, in the meantime, required us to provide you with a replacement product before completion of the testing process, you will have to pay for this product also. This Clause does not apply to Consumers returning goods pursuant to Clause 13.

f)

Unless otherwise stated in the manufacturer's documentation, all goods delivered to a UK mainland address carry a specified manufacturer's warranty. Customers who wish to make a warranty claim must comply with the manufacturer's instructions and warranty procedure. In order to resolve your problem as quickly as possible, we will refer you to the product manufacturer who will deal directly with the return. In these instances, we will provide you with the contact information for the relevant manufacturer. If you are a consumer, this does not affect your statutory rights.

g)

This warranty shall not apply if the goods have been worked upon, altered or damaged in any way by the Customer or its employees or agents, or to goods not used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
