Making a contract with us
When you place an order with us, you are making an offer to buy goods. We will send you an e-mail to confirm that we have received your order. Once we have checked the price and availability of the goods, we will e-mail you again to confirm that we accept your order, and that a contract has been made between us. We will not take payment from you until we have accepted your order.
In the unlikely event that the goods are no longer available, or that we have made a pricing mistake, we will advise you of this. You will not receive an e-mail confirming acceptance of your order, and there will be no contract between us.
Delivery
Orders will be despatched with 48 hours, excluding weekends and public holidays, unless there is a notice with the product description to say otherwise. Charges for despatch within the UK for delivery are given in the product description and in the basket and checkout stages. Courier and mailing services will alter between products. For UK deliveries, we will use delivery services that are scheduled to take no more than three days from date of despatch to delivery. If an urgent delivery is required, please contact info@bassgear.co.uk to see if arrangements can be altered.
Cancellation and returns
This policy does not apply to the following goods, which are exempt from the right to cancel:

Strings, once fitted
You can cancel your contract at any time up to 7 working days after the day of delivery.
Cancellation procedure
Cancellation requests must be sent to mail@bassgear.co.uk with the word ‘cancel’. You do not have to give any reason for cancellation. However, a brief explanation will help us to improve the service we offer to customers in the future.
If you cancel before you receive delivery of the ordered goods you may be required to pay for transportation costs incurred. If you cancel after receiving the ordered goods you must return the goods to us at your own expense. You must ensure that the goods are packaged adequately to protect against damage.
If you fail to return the goods, we will collect them, and we will charge you the direct cost of collection. If you fail to take reasonable care of the goods before they are returned to us, and this results in damage or deterioration, we will charge you for the reduction in value.
This cancellation policy does not affect your legal rights — for example, if goods are faulty or misdescribed.
