LOF will make all reasonable endeavours to ensure that goods are available at these prices.

LOF shall have the right to reduce, or increase prices to the buyer at any time without prior notice, except with respect to orders which have been accepted prior to such price modification.

  1. PAYMENT AND SETTLEMENT TERMS

Unless otherwise agreed with LOF, payment is required in full with each individual order. This can be made with credit or debit cards or alternatively a pro-forma invoice can be supplied on request to enable the Customer to make payment direct to the LOF bank account or by cheque. Upon receiving payment by card, we may perform a fraud check on the card used. Based on these results, we may ask for further information so that we can process your order.

Customers wishing to open credit facilities with LOF may do so by completing the LOF Credit application form which again will be provided on request.

LOF reserves the right to decline any application for credit facilities without any reason.

Credit accounts are subject to settlement by the customer within 30 days of invoice date except where otherwise agreed in writing by LOF.

If the customer fails to make payment by the due date then all sums owed to LOF by the Customer on account or otherwise, shall immediately become due and payable in full and LOF shall be entitled to:

 

  1. Cancel the contract or suspend any further deliveries to the Customer
  2. Appropriate any payment made by the Customer to such goods as LOF may deem fit
  3. Charge the Customer interest on the amount unpaid at the rate permitted under applicable law

 

  1. RETENTION OF TITLE

The goods remain the property of LOF until full payment has been received. Until full payment has been received LOF may at any time recover the goods, and may enter the Customer’s premises for this purpose. The risk passes to the Customer on delivery of the goods regardless of whether LOF has received full payment. The Customer shall be liable for insuring the goods at the full invoice value until LOF has received full payment.

  1. CARRIAGE AND DELIVERY

Most deliveries will be free of charge to mainland UK addresses. If at checkout you find your postcode is not applicable for this, delivery charges to other areas are available upon application. LOF reserves the right to impose further delivery charges if delivery is not able to be made on the first attempt due to incorrect information being supplied by the buyer.

Delivery times quoted are done so in good faith but shall be non-binding. LOF will not be liable for any losses incurred by the Customer, or any other persons, as a result of a delay in any part of the delivery. Deliveries shall be made between business hours of Monday – Friday 8.30am – 6.00pm. Lead times are given as a guide for delivery.

Deliveries will be made to the ground floor, goods inward department or kerbside where sufficient offloading facilities aren’t available. Assistance must be provided by the Customer. Failure to provide adequate assistance may result in the delivery having to be aborted and additional charges imposed. If further assistance or installation is required this must be made clear at the point of purchase. Deliveries must be checked and accounted for prior to signing the delivery note. Any damages or shortages must be noted on the delivery note and reported to LOF within 24 hours. Failure to do so may result in a claim being rejected. All items are delivered flat packed for self-assembly unless otherwise stated or agreed prior to purchase in writing. LOF must be notified of any potential restrictions on delivery as failure to do so may result in charges being passed on to the customer.

If goods are to be installed then the area must be clear, accessible and free from other trades or workers. LOF reserves the right to pass on charges it incurs due to delays incurred by the Customer. LOF will not remove any old furniture unless this is agreed prior to purchase.
