2. You place an order on the website by following the process outlined on our website. Please read and check your order carefully before submitting it. You will be able to correct any errors before submitting your order to us.
3. We only accept orders when we’ve checked them. When you place your order at the end of the online checkout process (e.g. when you click on the ‘pay now’ button), we will acknowledge it by email. This acknowledgement does not, however, mean that your order has been accepted by us.
4. We may contact you to say that we do not accept your order. This is typically for the following reasons:

1. we are out of applicable stock;
2. we cannot authorise your payment;
3. you are not legally allowed to buy the Products from us;
4. we are not allowed to sell the Products to you; or
5. there has been a mistake on the pricing or description of the Products.

When this happens, we will let you know as soon as possible and refund any sums you have paid.

4. Our estimated manufacturing time is usually up to 16 weeks from making your order, depending on your geographical region. The deposit is to secure your Product at the stated price. Delays are always a possibility, but we try to keep them to a minimum and keep customers informed via website updates and emails.
5. We contact you to confirm we’ve received your order and then we contact you again to confirm we’ve accepted it. At this point:

1. a legally binding contract will be in place between you and us; and
2. we will provide the Products as agreed during the online checkout process.

5. If you are not allowed to receive the Products under the laws of the jurisdiction in which you are resident or from which you use the Products, you may not buy Products from the website.
6. If you need to update your contact details after you have placed an order on our website, you must contact us as soon as possible by sending an email to info@skarper.com to ensure that we can contact you about your order if required.

6. Right to CHANGE YOUR MIND

1. If you bought online, by mail order, over the phone or on your doorstep, you have the right to change your mind and cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason and receive a refund of what you paid for it. For clarity, the right to change your mind does not apply to in-store purchases.  This is subject to some conditions outlined below.
2. In addition, however you have bought Product, you have rights under our goodwill warranty in clause 9.
3. The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day of the conclusion of the contract.
4. To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by email) by contacting us at info@skarper.com.
5. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
6. You will pay the costs of return. You have to return our Product to us within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind. You can:

1. bring the Product to one of our retail stores (details provided on our website at https://www.skarper.com.  You will need your email receipt and the card with which you paid; or
2. send the Product back to us, using an established delivery service. If you do this, you should keep a copy of evidence from the delivery service that proves you have sent it and when you sent it. If you don’t do this, and we don’t receive the goods at all or within a reasonable time, we won’t refund you the price. It is your responsibility to ensure that we receive
   the returned Product.

For help with returns, please contact us at info@skarper.com.

3. We only refund standard delivery costs, up to a maximum of one hundred pounds sterling (£100). We don’t refund any extra you have paid for express delivery or delivery at a particular time.

1. Products that are made to your specification or which are clearly personalised; and
2. Products that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised;
3. Products which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery.
4. We reduce your refund if you have used or damaged a Product. If you handle the Product in a way which is not in accordance with our user manual, or would not be acceptable in-store, we reduce your refund, to compensate us for its reduced value.  For example, we reduce your refund if the Product’s condition is not “as new”, price tags have been removed, the
   Skarper packaging is damaged or accessories are missing. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the product, no refund may be due. Our Customer Service Team available on email at info@skarper.com can advise you on whether we’re likely to reduce your refund.

8. When and how we refund you. If you tell us you’ve changed your mind about a product that hasn’t been delivered or one that we’re collecting from you, we refund you as soon as possible and within 14 days. If you’re sending your Product back to us, we refund you within 14 days of receiving it (or receiving evidence you’ve sent it to us). We refund you by
   the method you used for payment. We don’t charge a fee for the refund.  This does not affect the rights you have if the Products are defective. A summary of these rights is provided at the top of this page. See also clause 11 below.

7. Effects of cancellation

1. If you tell us you’ve changed your mind about a Product which has not been delivered or one that you are collecting from us or our retailer, we refund to you all payments received from you as soon as possible and within 14 days.  If you’re sending the Product back to us, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you within 14 days of receiving it.
2. We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.

3. If we end the contract for any of the reasons set out in paragraphs 12.2.1 to 12.2.6, we are responsible for direct losses (not consequential losses of any kind) you suffer caused by us breaking this contract unless the loss is:

1. Unexpected. It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable).
2. Caused by a delaying event outside our control. As long as we have taken the steps set out in the clause 1 (‘delays outside our control’).
3. Avoidable. Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action, including following our reasonable instructions for use.
4. A business loss. It relates to your use of a product for the purposes of your trade, business, craft or profession.

2. The laws of England & Wales apply to this contract, although if you are resident elsewhere you will retain the benefit of any mandatory protections given to you by the laws of that country.
3. Any disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of London, England.

15. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS APPLY TO OUR CONTRACT

4. We can transfer our contract with you, so that a different organisation is responsible for supplying your Product. We’ll tell you in writing if this happens and we’ll ensure that the transfer won’t affect your rights under the contract.

5. You can only transfer your contract with us to someone else if we agree to this. However, you can transfer our goodwill warranty to a new owner of the product. We can require the new owner to prove you transferred the product to them, for example by producing a letter or chain of letters from the original purchaser and subsequent purchasers (where appropriate) transferring the
   benefit of the warranty to the new owner of the property in question.  

6. Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. Nobody else can enforce it and neither of us will need to ask anybody else to sign-off on ending or changing it.

7. If a court invalidates some of this contract, the rest of it will still apply. If a court or other authority decides that some of these terms are unlawful, the rest will continue to apply.

8. Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. We might not immediately chase you for not doing something (like paying) or for doing something you’re not allowed to, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do it later.

You have now come to the end of the legal terms. If you have read this, congratulations and well done for getting this far!

Skarper’s Goodwill Warranty Terms

Last updated 8.10.24

Our Goodwill Warranty

We offer our consumer customers a 2 year goodwill warranty for our Products, however they are purchased, by showing a valid and dated proof of purchase in your name. This goodwill warranty does not affect your legal rights if there is something wrong with your Product.

1. This goodwill warranty is valid for Products bought directly from us or from our authorised dealers.
2. The goodwill warranty applies to Products intended for use within the UK. We have no (warranty) obligations towards the consumer should the Product be used outside the UK.
3. This goodwill warranty covers all original components against defects in workmanship and materials (e.g. in case the Products do not correspond with the Product description in the user manual or do not materially correspond with the advertisement of the Product).
4. You must follow our standard return to manufacturer process.  We will not be responsible under the warranty for any returns unless you follow the return instructions. If a warranty claim is accepted, we will, in our sole discretion, provide a replacement (which is not necessarily identical) for any defective part or component(s), or we may make reasonable commercial efforts to
   fix the part or components. We will cover the expenses of the part, shipping, and any associated repair labour costs. We will refund standard delivery costs only, up to a maximum of one hundred pounds sterling (£100), upon proof of expenditure. We don’t refund any extra you have paid for express delivery or delivery at a particular time. Any additional transportation
   costs (such as those incurred if you request an on-site technician to carry out the repair, or travel expenses to and from a service point) will be your responsibility.
5. Any replacement parts or components will be covered under warranty for the same length of time as the original Product and will expire at the same time as the original Product’s warranty.
6. We may replace defective Products or parts with new or refurbished Products or parts.
7. It is your responsibility to ensure that the battery is charged at the appropriate intervals if not using the Product. Failure to do so may cause the battery to go into deep discharge mode, which is a necessary safety feature which may require a replacement of the battery at your cost.
8. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing. However, you can transfer our warranty to a new owner of the Product. We can require the new owner to prove you transferred the Product to them, for example by producing a letter or chain of letters from the original purchaser and subsequent purchasers (where
   appropriate) transferring the benefit of the warranty to the new owner of the property in question.  We will be happy to supply a suggested specimen letter.
9. Upon return, the Product will be run through a series of machine and human diagnostics. This goodwill warranty does not cover:

1. Commercial use of any kind (including, without limitation, deliveries, taxis, etc);
2. misuse, including:

1. use over and above reasonable commuter mileage assumptions
2. treatment resulting in physical, cosmetic or surface damage or changes to the Product;
3. failure to install or use the Product for its normal purpose or in accordance with instructions on installation or use;
4. failure to maintain the Product in accordance with instructions on proper maintenance;
5. installation or use of the Product in a manner inconsistent with the technical or safety laws or standards in the country where it is installed or used including the use of third-party applications to modify or adjust settings, including but not limited to speed controller settings;.
6. use of the Product with accessories, peripheral equipment and other products of a type, condition and standard other than as prescribed and approved by us;
7. Repair or attempted repair by persons who are not approved by us;

3. Adjustments or adaptations without our prior written consent, including:

1. upgrading the Product beyond specifications or features described in the instruction manual, or
2. modifications to the Product to conform it to national or local technical or safety standards in countries other than those for which the Product was specifically designed and manufactured.

4. Failure of the Product caused by accidents including but not limited to fire, liquids, chemicals, other substances, flooding, vibrations, excessive heat, power surges, excess or incorrect supply or input voltage, other external forces and impacts.

The warranty does not extend to parts that naturally deteriorate and need to be replaced due to reasonable use. The anticipated lifetime of these parts is dependent on factors such as the extent of use, maintenance, and overall handling. It is your responsibility to regularly inspect and adequately maintain the Product.
