The images of the Products on our site are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that your computer's display of the colours accurately reflect the colour of the Products. Your Products may vary slightly from those images.
To get the most out of any goods, you should take care to follow the care instructions. The goods we sell are for consumers for general domestic use only and must be used for the intended purpose. Where Goods are used for non-domestic purposes we exclude (to the fullest extent permitted by law) those warranties and conditions relating to fitness for a particular purpose.
12. Your Rights To Cancel An Order
12.1 If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to cancel a Contract (under Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Payments) Regulations 2013) during the period set out below in clause 12.2. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or for any other reason you decide you do not want to keep a Product, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund. Advice about your legal right to cancel the Contract under these regulations is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.
12.2 Your legal right to cancel a Contract starts from the date of the Payment Confirmation, which is when the Contract between us is formed. Save where clause 12.3 applies, if the Products have already been delivered to you, you have a period of 14 (fourteen) calendar days in which you may cancel the Contract, starting from the day on which you (or someone you nominate) receives the Product unless your Product(s) are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery to cancel the contract. Custom made orders are excluded from this unless defective.
12.3 If you have changed your mind and wish to cancel a Contract, please contact us in writing before the expiry of the deadline referred to in clauses 12.2 to tell us clearly that you wish to cancel by sending an e-mail to hello@mellberry.co.uk or by sending a letter to our postal address. You may wish to keep a copy of your cancellation notification for your own records. If you send us your cancellation notice by e-mail or by post, then your cancellation is effective from the date you sent us the e-mail or posted the letter to us.
12.4 On cancellation of a Contract, you will receive a full refund of the price you paid for the Products and a full refund of any applicable delivery charges you paid for. The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a Product within 5-7 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind and once the Product has been returned.
12.5 If you cancel the Contract after the Products have been delivered to you:
(a) you must return or make the Products available for a collection as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event no later than 14 days after the date of your cancellation. If the Products are being collected this will be from the address to which they were delivered and we will contact you to arrange a suitable time for collection;
(b) you have a legal obligation to keep the Products in your possession and to take reasonable care of the Products while they are in your possession.
(c) a collection charge will apply which will vary according to the Product.
13. Discount Codes
We may provide promotional codes offering a discount on our merchandise. Promotional codes cannot be used on past purchases. Promotional codes are non-transferable and there is no cash alternative. Furthermore, they cannot be used in conjunction with any other promotional code or offers and must be used by the date published, if any. Only one promo codes can be used at checkout. We reserve the right at any time without notice to retract and/or change the terms of promotional codes.

15. Delays and Events Beyond Control
We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations under a Contract that is caused by an Event Outside Our Control. An Event Outside Our Control is defined below.
An Event Outside Our Control means any act or event beyond our reasonable control, including without limitation any actions, inactions or delays of our manufacturers and suppliers, strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action by third parties, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, or failure of public or private telecommunications networks or impossibility of the use of railways, shipping, aircraft, motor transport or other means of public or private transport.
If an Event Outside Our Control takes place that affects the performance of our obligations under a Contract:
(a) we will contact you as soon as reasonably possible to notify you; and
(b) our obligations under a Contract will be suspended and the time for performance of our obligations will be extended for the duration of the Event Outside Our Control. Where the Event Outside Our Control affects our delivery of Products to you, we will arrange a new delivery date with you after the Event Outside Our Control is over.
Whilst we are confident that we will be able to deliver qualifying orders in time for Christmas, if, due to reasons outside of our control, this is not possible we will deliver an alternative piece of furniture of a similar nature for you to use during the interim period. Once your ordered furniture has been delivered we will arrange a collection of the interim piece of furniture (at our cost).
