3. PRICES

3.1 All prices are inclusive of VAT within the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland where appropriate. All prices are quoted in British pounds sterling (£ GBP) only.

3.2 The total value of your order including VAT and delivery charges will be displayed on the order confirmation screen. The displayed price is the amount in British pounds sterling (£ GBP) that you will pay.

3.3 Due to the fact that the L’OR Home Delivery Service is offered and managed by Jacobs Douwe Egberts GB Limited, any payment for an online purchase may constitute an international transaction which may be charged by your bank with additional fees.

3.4 Prices of the products and our delivery charges will be as quoted on our United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland website at the point of ordering (subject to revision for errors).

3.5 Our Product prices and delivery charges are liable to change at any time. Any changes made to our Product prices and delivery charges after a Dispatch Confirmation has been sent out to you will not affect any order which you have already placed. A Dispatch Confirmation is explained in more detail at 6.1 below.

3.6 Our United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland website contains a large number of products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products listed on our United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland website may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a Product's correct price is less that our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Product's correct price is higher than the price stated on our United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland website, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.

3.7 We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation (see 6.1 below), if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably been recognised by you as an error.

4. ORDERING & PAYMENT

4.1.You can order our products on-line using our United Kingdom website lorespresso.com/en_gb.

If one or more products have been discontinued then your order will be delivered without the products which we are no longer able to provide. In this case you will receive a refund for the missing products.

4.4 Whilst every effort will be made to ensure that all items shown in our on-line product catalogue are in stock we offer no guarantee of availability and our telephone service and this electronic publication does not constitute an offer for sale capable of acceptance by you submitting an order.

4.5 If ordering on-line, when we receive your order we will automatically send you an e-mail confirming acknowledgement of receipt of your order details ("Confirmation Email"). This Confirmation Email will be directed to the e-mail address you supplied to us upon placement of your order and is not a guarantee of availability nor acceptance of an offer.

4.6 To ensure your order is dealt with promptly, we require your full, correct address details, including a postcode for the United Kingdom or a county for Republic of Ireland (as applicable), a day time contact telephone number and your e-mail address (if you have one). If you have a registration card, please also include your L’OR Unique Client Number which can be found on the front of your card. The billing address you provide to us must be the same as the billing address you have notified to and registered with your selected credit/debit card company or other payment services provider as this is used to validate your order. We regret that failure to supply the correct details will result in your order being held pending the supply of the correct details.

4.7 Your order will only be processed if full payment details are given.

4.8 We use a third party payment services provider to process payments. Upon placing your order using our United Kingdom website, the final step in the ordering process will result in your order being handed over to our payment services provider's website for payment.

In some exceptional circumstances order dispatch may be delayed due to unforeseen circumstances, and in this situation, depending on your payment method, payment debit will occur 3 to 7 days after you placing the order. Debiting your payment does not represent acceptance by us of your order or otherwise commit us to a contract with you. Section 5 of these terms will govern how and when a binding contract is formed between you and us in relation to any order.

4.10 If you experience any difficulties processing your order or with payment, please call our United Kingdom Careline or our Republic of Ireland Careline. The careline numbers are listed in section 1.5 of these terms and conditions.
