Terms & Conditions
Before You Purchase
Before you buy a large electrical appliance, please check the dimensions of the delivery address for access (including doors, corridors, stairs and corners), as well as the proposed location, to confirm that the product is the right size for your needs. This is so that we can deliver your order safely and successfully.
All measurements are taken from the manufacturer's specifications. Cotswold Appliances (Oxford) Limited shall not be held liable for variations due to incorrect specification.
For returns of items purchased in the showroom, please refer to our Cotswold Appliances Notice to Customers and Cancellation Policy, as displayed within the store.

Consumer Contract Regulations 2013
This legislation offers certain cancellation rights when purchasing by telephone or online.
You are entitled to cancel your contract if you wish, providing that this is within 14 days after the day on which you receive your goods.
If you wish to cancel your contract you are obliged to keep possession and take reasonable care of those goods, until those goods have been returned to us.
To cancel your contact, you must inform us with a clear statement containing the details of your name, address, order number and, where available, your telephone number and e-mail address.
You can cancel by email to sales@cotswoldappliances.co.uk or by calling 01453 756 094.
If you wish to cancel, you should return the goods to us within 14 days of your cancellation (at your expense) and we will reimburse you for those goods by the method you used to pay for the original transaction. We will reimburse the amount in relation to the goods, to which the cancellation rights apply.
Note: We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for any loss in value for the goods supplied, if the loss is the result of any unnecessary handling by you. This reimbursement will take place no later than 14 days after we receive the supplied goods.
Failed Deliveries
If you arrange to have an item delivered, and then fail to be there to sign for the product during the required period, a re-delivery fee of £15 will apply. This must be paid in full before the delivery takes place.
Damaged Orders or Missing Items
Once a product has been dispatched, if you choose to cancel your order we will not be held liable for the cost of the return carriage. The goods should be returned in full, complete with packaging and any promotional gifts or items associated with the goods.
You must return your goods to our store (our address is Cotswold Appliances, 54 London Road, Stroud GL5 2AD). Alternatively, we can on occasion arrange to collect your goods for a small carriage charge. For small appliances this charge will be £15. For large appliances we estimate this charge to be £30.
Returns should be completed within 14 days from notification of your wish to cancel.
Returns Procedure
Once a product has been dispatched, if you choose to cancel your order we will not be held liable for the cost of the return carriage. The goods should be returned in full, complete with packaging and any promotional gifts or items associated with the goods.
The return arrangements are as detailed above in Damaged Orders or Missing Items.
Refunds Procedure
We want you to be happy with your new purchase. If this is not the case, please inform us straightaway. We will process your refund within 14 days of receipt of any goods returned to us, or within 14 days of notification of your wish to cancel an order before dispatch occurs.
We will refund the price you have paid for the goods. However, please note that we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by you handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.
We will refund any delivery costs you have paid, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the cost of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer (provided that this is a common and generally acceptable method).
We will refund you the price you have paid for any installation services, providing they have not yet been performed. If however you have expressly requested us to commence any installation services before the end of 14 days, you acknowledge that the right to cancel such installation services shall be lost once installation has been fully performed. You shall not be entitled to a refund of the price of the installation services where the right to cancel has been lost.
We will notify you by telephone or e-mail when your refund has been processed, or where neither options are available, in writing.
Products we are Unable to Cancel, Refund or Exchange
Where a product has been specially ordered for you, unless faulty, we are unable to refund or offer an exchange. We are therefore unable to accept cancellations for these orders, unless within 48 hours of the order being placed.
This does not affect your statutory rights.
Pricing Policy
Prices can be changed without prior notice. Price errors may not be honoured.
