Terms and conditions
These terms do not supersede statutory rights under the Sale of Goods Acts but are designed to clarify the principles and
procedures by which we operate. Every care has been taken to ensure that the descriptions and specifications are correct
on this website. However, while the colours displayed are a close representation, slight variations in the actual goods
may occur.
Currency
All prices shown in this website are quoted in pounds sterling and are inclusive of VAT (credit cards sales will be
charged in your local billing currency by your credit card provider). Data entry errors or other technical problems
may result in inaccurate prices being shown. In such cases it is not required to honour this price. If you see any price
you believe to be incorrect, please contact us so we can verify it for you.
Shipping and carriage
The final price quoted on the payments page is the price of the goods including delivery to the stated destination.
These charges include carriage by UK Royal Mail or UK ParcelForce to both home and overseas destinations.
As we cannot guarantee that every item is in stock permanently we will advise you of an anticipated delivery date.
Duties and local taxes
Purchasers are responsible for any duties and/or taxes levied at the point of entry into the destination country.
A commercial invoice is provided with all goods shipped.
Damage and loss in transit
Unfortunately things do get lost or damaged in transit. If this happens with your shipment, please advise us and we
will supply replacement goods as quickly as we can. However, since we never knowingly ship damaged goods we need your
help to try to recover our costs from the carrier wherever possible.
If you do receive damaged goods, please retain all relevant documentation so that an insurance claim can be made against
the carrier's insurers. If you receive a battered parcel, note the fact on the delivery note, even before you open the
package to examine the contents. If you are unable to open the damaged package in the presence of the carrier, make sure that
you sign for it as 'Damaged package; goods not yet inspected' or similar to warn the carrier that a claim may be forthcoming.
Whatever the circumstances, please contact us by email or telephone with as much detail of the damage or loss as you can
provide, as soon after delivery as possible, so that we can arrange replacement goods and start following up the carriers.
Please do NOT return damaged goods, unless and until requested to do so as this may incur additional costs unnecessarily.

Proof of posting
For your own protection, you are strongly advised to obtain a proof of posting, or shipping certificate from a courier,
when returning goods whatever the reason for the return. Goods which are returned to us but are lost in shipping remain
your responsibility. A proof of posting will assist you in tracking any shipment which is reported as lost, damaged, mislaid or
otherwise undelivered/undeliverable.
Cancellation (applies to UK residents ONLY)
UK residents (only) may cancel their contract to purchase goods by formally notifying us within a period of seven working
days of delivery, provided that the goods are promptly returned to us at: Leto & Ariadne, in 'as sold' condition with packaging
unopened and seals unbroken, to arrive within fourteen days of your original receipt of the returned goods.
In the event of cancellation under this provision a full refund will be given within thirty days of our receipt
of the returned goods.
Please note that refunds will be made using the same method as the original payment. (i.e.: a credit card purchase will be
refunded through your credit card account).
Payment and retention of title
Under normal circumstances, goods must be paid for prior to despatch. If, for any reason, goods are shipped prior to
clearance of payments, title in the goods shipped belongs to Leto & Ariadne until payment in full for the goods is received
by us. Conversely, we will not normally process payment for goods until they are available for despatch. However, please
note that on-line transactions are normally actioned automatically whilst you are on-line to the secure transaction server.
