If for any reason the Seller does not accept the Buyer’s Order, the Seller will advise the Buyer as soon as practicable. This will mean that there will be no binding Contract between the two parties.
The Buyer must ensure that the details that he provides the Seller are complete and accurate and that he provides all the necessary information relating to the Supply of the Products within sufficient time to enable the Seller to perform the Contract in accordance with these conditions.
Any typographical or clerical error or omission in any sales literature, quotation, price list, acceptance of offer, invoice or other document or information issued by the Seller shall be subject to correction without any liability on the part of the Seller.

The refund will be carried out as soon as possible, in any event, within 30 days of the order. The Seller will not be obliged to offer any compensation for any disappointment suffered.
3. Basis of Sale
Subject to the Buyer’s right to cancel the Contract, included within clause 13, the Seller shall sell and the Buyer shall buy the Products in accordance with the Confirmation. No Contract exists between the Buyer and Seller for the sale of any Products until the Seller has received, processed and confirmed the order and the Seller has received payment in full, (in cleared funds). Once the Seller does so, there is a legal binding Contract between the Buyer and Seller.
The description of Goods shall be set out in writing in the Confirmation.
Any items that are not beds or the specified Product in the product description on the web page that appears in any photograph or illustration on the website or in product brochures will not form part of this Contract. Example of such items are lamps, bed covers, and in certain instances headboards, (unless mentioned in the product description). Such information is for illustration purposes only and may not comprise part of the Products.
The Buyer shall not be entitled to assign the Contract or any part of it without prior written consent.
The Seller may assign the Contract or any part of it to any person, firm or company with prior agreement from the customer.

In the event of any increase in the cost to the Seller of raw materials, labour, overheads, or any increase in taxes or duties, or any variation in exchange rate the Seller may increase the Price payable under the Contract upon written notice. If notice of price increase is given by the Seller, the Buyer shall have the right to cancel the order and receive back any sums they have paid.
Notice of cancellation must be received in writing by the Seller within 14 days of delivery of the notice of price increase to the Buyer.
If the Seller makes an error in the Confirmation or any invoice or any receipt the Seller will correct that error within 60 days of being notified of any error.
Payment of the Price shall be due on the date of the purchase order. Payment shall be due before the delivery date and time for payment shall be of the essence.
No payment shall be deemed to have been received until the Seller has received cleared funds. There will be no delivery until cleared funds have been received.
Payment for the Products and any delivery charges can be made by any method shown on the Seller’s website at the time the Buyer places an order.
Payments shall be made by the Buyer without any deduction whether by way of set-off, counter-claim, discount, abatement or otherwise unless the Buyer has a valid court order requiring an amount equal to such deduction to be paid by the Seller to the Buyer.
Special Offers: To avoid abuse of special offer mechanisms, if multiple special offers apply to the contents of your cart only one special offer will be applied to the total. The offer that is applied to your total will be the offer that grants the biggest discount to the contents of the shopping cart.
5. Description of Products

Generally, where an order contains more than one item, all items will be delivered at the same time once all items are available.
Goods will be deemed to have been delivered once delivered to the specified address and Kids Beds Online will not be liable to the customer for non-delivery of the Products. Kids Beds Online does not need to satisfy itself that the person accepting delivery at the specified address is the customer (or authorized by the customer to accept delivery of the Goods). The Buyer is recommended to take receipt of the delivery personally.
Dates and times quoted for delivery are approximate only. Kids Beds Online shall not be liable for any direct, indirect or consequential loss, costs, damages, charges or expenses caused directly or indirectly by any delay in the delivery of the Goods.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU, OR ANYONE ELSE YOU HAVE ARRANGED TO TAKE DELIVERY OF YOUR ORDER HAS READ THIS PAGE AND IS CLEAR ON THE PROCEDURE FOR ACCEPTING DELIVERIES WITH RESPECT TO SIGNING FOR THE GOODS.
Deliveries made by national carriers will be delivered by one man and delivered to your front door. The services used will only deliver the ordered items to the front door of the designated delivery address. This means that if you reside in an apartment or a block of flats, the delivery driver will deliver to the lobby of the building only. Please understand that the logistics companies that offer a ‘next day’ service are not insured to enter private premises. Please be aware that if you purchase a product on a ‘next day’ delivery service and require assistance with the positioning of the product, you must arrange the assistance yourself.
Before you sign for the item(s)
1) For insurance purposes, it is very important that before you sign for your items, you check all external packaging for signs of damage. Transport damages cannot be claimed at a later date if the delivery was signed for “in good order”.
2) If there are signs of damage to the packaging, you MUST ask the driver to take a photograph of the damage. You MUST accept all items and call us straight away, we will then arrange for ANY DAMAGED items to be replaced. You are also advised to take a photograph yourself as further proof of damage. All photos must be capable of clearly showing the packaging damage.
3) You must count the number of items that you are signing for. The number of items expected should be clearly marked on all packages. If any items are missing please indicate how many packages were received on the drivers consignment note or electronic notepad, accept all offered items and please call us immediately (or at the maximum, 48 hours after delivery) on 01484 957337 . We will then sort out locating/replacing any missing items.
4) Please do not sign for your items as ‘UNCHECKED’ as this no longer covers you as the customer for the insurance of the items.
NEXT DAY Delivery
Please do not order NEXT DAY items together with items that are not NEXT DAY as we delivery your goods when the whole order is ready and the delivery would be delayed. If you need to order other things along with NEXT DAY items, please make a separate order.
All orders for NEXT DAY items must be submitted and payment taken (processed) before 12pm to be delivered the next working day. If NEXT DAY orders are received and processed before 12pm we assume you would like the goods the next working day. We will send out the goods via a national carrier for arrival between 7am and 8pm. Please ensure that you are able to take the delivery. Where a delivery date has been agreed with our carrier and yourself (ordering NEXT DAY items assumes you have pre-agreed to take delivery on the next working day), but you are not present to receive the delivery, we reserve the right to charge you a minimum of £25 to cover part of the cost of the failed delivery and re-delivery.
We will not send you status update emails once your order has been processed, instead you will receive a ‘Dispatched’ email to confirm that the goods have left our warehouse. If you would like your NEXT DAY order to be delivered before a specific time, please contact us before 12pm on the day before delivery is set to take place. This usually means you should contact us as soon as you can after placing your order. More information about delivery before a specific time can be found on our Delivery page.
8. Acceptance of the Product(s)
On the rare occasion where an item is damaged in transit Kids Beds Online will, of course, offer to replace the damaged item, or part thereof immediately upon receipt of the photographs of the damage which would normally be taken by the driver. Please ensure that you inspect the packaging carefully for damage before signing and ask the driver to take photos of any damaged packaging with his handheld device . You are also advised to take a photograph yourself. Please inform Kids Beds Online of the damage straight away and we will send out replacement parts as soon as is practicable. Transport damages cannot be claimed at a later date if the delivery was signed for “in good order”. WE ARE UNABLE TO REPLACE DAMAGED GOODS THAT HAVE BEEN SIGNED FOR ‘IN GOOD ORDER’. Transport damage only applies to the outer packaging. The buyer is not expected to examine the contents of cartons at the time of delivery.
The customer shall be bound to accept the products when they are tendered for delivery by Kids Beds Online or its business associates and delivery shall be deemed to take place when the products are tendered for delivery to the customer at the nominated address for delivery whereupon the risk of loss, breakage or any other damage whatsoever shall pass to the customer.
Damage in transit:
If goods arrive in a damaged condition you must ask the driver to take a photograph with his handheld device and accept the goods. It will be your responsibility to inform us within a reasonable time after delivery.
Non-Deliveries:
It is the customers responsibility to sign for the correct number of packages as shown on the carrier’s delivery consignment note. The number of items expected should be clearly marked on all packages. If there are any missing packages the number of received packages must be noted on the drivers handheld device and it will be your responsibility to notify Kids Beds Online within a reasonable time period.
In-Correct Goods:
The customer must notify Kids Beds Online of any goods supplied incorrectly within a reasonable time period of delivery. The goods must not be used and repackaged in the original packaging to protect them from damage. Kids Beds Online will arrange for collection of the goods and a replacement will be sent. Alternatively we may request that you return small items back to us by post and we will refund your postage costs. Replacement goods will be dispatched upon return of the original goods.
9. Risk and title
As soon as we have delivered the goods to your door you will be responsible for them. We will only deliver goods to the address on the order and goods will not be left without a signature. From the time of receipted delivery of the goods, any loss or damage to the goods shall be at your own risk. Any transit damage to the goods or any package number shortages must be noted on the delivery handheld device at the time of delivery including any packaging damage photographs.
Risk of damage to or loss of the Products shall pass to the customer upon delivery. If the customer wrongfully fails to take delivery of the Products, then risk of the Products shall pass to the customer at the time when Kids Beds Online tendered delivery of the Products.
Notwithstanding any other provision herein title to the Products shall not pass to the customer until the Kids Beds Online has received in cash or cleared funds payment in full for the Products and all other sums which are or which become due to Kids Beds Online from the customer on any account.
Kids Beds Online shall be entitled to recover payment for the Products notwithstanding that ownership of any of the Products has not passed from Kids Beds Online.
The customer may not use or resell the Products before ownership has passed.
The customer grants Kids Beds Online the license at any time to enter any premises where the Products are or may be stored in order to inspect them, or where right to possession has terminated, to recover them, and to use reasonable force in doing so.
If the customer receives goods but then requires an immediate exchange of the product for whatever reason, the customer is responsible for the goods until such time the goods are replaced. Unless specifically specified by Kids Beds Online, the customer shall not use the product. This is also the case for mattresses and pillows. Due to hygiene restrictions we are unable to exchange mattresses and pillows that have been slept on or used, even if a replacement has been arranged (unless this is due to a manufacture fault). Under these circumstances, the customer is liable for the cost of the replacement mattress and/or pillows and their delivery. The customer is advised to retain all original packaging for at least 7 days. If any products need to be returned to Kids Beds Online, except in the case of faulty or transport damaged goods, this must be in the original packaging. Kids Beds Online reserves the right to charge for extra transport packaging where the original packaging has been discarded. The cost of this will be determined by the amount of repackaging material used to make transportation of the goods safe.
