All deliveries must be signed for by a person over the age of 18. We recommend this is carried out by you / the original purchaser.

9. Changing your agreed delivery date

Once you have booked and agreed your delivery date you will incur a minimum charge of £100 if you wish to re-schedule the delivery because your goods may have already left our premises. This payment will be required prior to re-arranging the delivery date.


10. Pricing

All prices are inclusive of VAT where appropriate. Our website contains a number of products, and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products listed may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that where a product’s correct price is less than our stated price or higher than our stated price, we will contact you for instructions before dispatching the product.

All prices are subject to change without prior notification. We are under no obligation to provide the product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you an order confirmation email.

Once an order has been dispatched to you, Vufold will not accept any claims for any on sale price reductions or further discounts.
