Your order represents an offer to Ethy Ltd to purchase a product which is accepted by Ethy Ltd when Ethy Ltd sends an email to you confirming that Ethy Ltd has accepted the order (the ‘Order Confirmation Email’). Such acceptance will be complete at the time Ethy Ltd sends the Order Confirmation Email to you. You are seeking to enter into a contract with Ethy Ltd when you place an order.
This contract is legally binding when you have placed an order, your order has been accepted by Ethy Ltd and Ethy Ltd has sent you the Confirmation Email.
Ethy Ltd will retain the title in the products until full payment has been made by you and has been received by Ethy Ltd.
- PROMOTIONAL ITEMS
Prices and offers may vary and may only be available for limited periods. All prices and offers are subject to availability and may be withdrawn or amended at our discretion.
- DELIVERIES
Ethy Ltd will endeavour to deliver all products you have ordered within the time period specified on your Order Confirmation Email. Please click here to view our delivery details and charges (if applicable).
All products purchased from the Website are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss for such products pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier. If you have received your Order Confirmation Email but your products have not arrived within the time specified in the Order Confirmation Email, please contact Ethy Ltd Customer Services and we will do our best to assist. Note that during exceptionally busy periods (e.g. Christmas) or when the weather is particularly inclement please allow an additional day before raising a query.
If your order has not been received within Ethy Ltd specified timescales as further set out below, in the first instance please check with your local mail delivery office to see that they are not holding your parcel. If they confirm that they do not have your products, please contact Ethy Ltd and Ethy Ltd will do its best to assist.
- RETURNS
If for any reason you are not happy with your Ethy Ltd products, please follow our Returns Policy, so that Ethy Ltd can assist you in the exchange or refund of your order. Ethy Ltd reserves the right to reject the return of products which are not returned in accordance with its Returns Policy and Ethy Ltd may request that you pay for the shipping of such goods back to you. Ethy Ltd Returns Policy does not affect your statutory rights.
Please note, we do not offer refunds for gift vouchers purchased.
- RETURNS OR EXCHANGES
You may return new, unworn or unused products which you wish to exchange or return within thirty (30) days from the date on which the goods were shipped to you. Where you wish to exchange a product, please note that you may exchange with a product of less, the same or of more value than the original item you wish to exchange. In the event that the item you wish to exchange your original purchase with is more expensive, Ethy Ltd will contact you and obtain the remaining balance.
Please note: your right to exchange or return products is separate from your statutory right to cancel your order under the Distance Selling Regulations (see below).
Delivery Costs
- a) If you are returning goods for exchange or return, costs incurred to return the goods shall be borne by you.
- b) Ethy Ltd will not refund the original delivery charge in the case of exchanges or returns.
Please note: you will only be reimbursed the original delivery charge where you exercise your statutory right to cancel your entire order within the 7 working day period beginning after the day of receipt of the goods under the Distance Selling Regulations – see Statutory Right to Cancel below.
- c) You will not be liable for the delivery costs incurred by us in sending you any products as exchanges.
Please note, you will not be liable for the costs of returning any substitute goods i.e. where you have been supplied with substitute goods because the original goods became unavailable when ordered or pre-ordered – see Pre-orders and Substitutes above.
- d) In the case of returns, you will only be refunded the value of the goods ordered.
- e) Ethy Ltd will only pay the return costs and subsequent re-delivery costs (if applicable) if the return is a result of our error or the goods are faulty.
This Returns Policy does not affect your statutory right to cancel or any of your other statutory rights.
- STATUTORY RIGHT TO CANCEL
In addition to our Returns or Exchange Procedure, under the Distance Selling Regulations you also have seven (7) working days (beginning the day after receipt of the goods) to cancel your purchase order.
Delivery Costs
- a) Where you exercise your statutory right to cancel, we will provide a full refund on the price paid for the goods. If you have cancelled your entire order, Ethy Ltd will also refund your original delivery charge. If you only cancel part of your order and return only some of the goods delivered to you, delivery charges will not be refunded. This is because generally the delivery charge is normally the same regardless of the number of items delivered and, if you retain part of your order, the delivery charge still applies to the part that you retained.
- b) Where you fail to return the product(s) in question or you send them at our expense, or if our appointed courier collects the goods from you, Ethy Ltd reserve the right to charge you for the direct costs incurred by Ethy Ltd in collecting or returning the goods (other than where the goods have been sent to you in error or where such goods are faulty in which case, such costs shall be at our expense).
Where you exercise your right to cancel within 7 (seven) working days, you should return the goods to Ethy Ltd as soon as reasonably practicable. Please note: if Ethy Ltd has provided any services as part of the purchase (e.g. products made to order) and Ethy Ltd have begun to provide these services before you have exercised your right to cancel, Ethy Ltd shall not reimburse the costs of such services.
- HOW DO I EXERCISE MY STATUTORY RIGHT TO CANCEL?
In order to exercise your right to cancel, please:
- a) send an email to [email protected]; or
- b) write to Ethy Ltd at Ethy Ltd address at the end of these terms;
making it clear in your correspondence that you are giving notice to exercise your statutory right to cancel.
Your email or letter will be deemed to have been received by Ethy Ltd on the date you send it (provided it is sent to the correct address and it is sufficiently clear that you are exercising your right to cancel). Please try and keep the confirmation of any letter or email to demonstrate the date when you sent it.
- CONDITIONS FOR ALL RETURNS, EXCHANGES OR STATUTORY RIGHT TO CANCEL
All goods must be returned to us unused, together with all original packaging (please note you have a duty to take reasonable care of returned goods and any refund may be withheld or a charge incurred if you fail to take such care and damage the goods). Please make sure that your return package is packed and sealed securely (in or with the original packaging if possible). Packages must be returned with the freight prepaid. Ethy Ltd recommends the use of an insured parcel service, such as Royal Mail Special Delivery (or if returning packages outside of the UK an equivalent international postage service).

Ethy Ltd will refund the cost of the goods and the cost of the delivery charges (where applicable) to the method of payment used to place your order within thirty (30) days of receipt of your order or of your notice of your statutory right to cancel.
