Terms of Use

1. Your Contract with the Seller
To purchase Products from the Times Reader Offer Site you must be over eighteen years of age. There will be no contract of any kind between you and Lifestyles unless and until we actually dispatch the Product to you. Your order is an offer to buy from Lifestyles. Nothing that Lifestyles does will amount to any acceptance of that offer until Lifestyles actually dispatches the Product to you. At any point up until then, Lifestyles may decline to supply the Product to you. At the time that the Product is dispatched, a contract will be made between you and Lifestyles as agreed in these terms of use, you will be charged for the Product immediately prior to dispatch. Sections 1 to 6 of these Terms of Use will form part of your contract with the Seller.

2. Prices
The prices payable for the Products that you order are clearly set out on the Site. If, by mistake, Lifestyles has under-priced a Product Lifestyles will not be liable to supply that Product to you at the stated price, provided that Lifestyles notifies you before Lifestyles dispatches the Product concerned. All prices are expressed inclusive of any VAT payable unless otherwise stated. The price of the Products on the site exclude the delivery charge to the UK mainland which is £3.95 per order, except for large and/or heavy items in which case the Product is marked with a red box with an H, in which case there is an additional Carriage Charge of £12.95 per item. You may also opt to have certain Products sent by Express Delivery where goods are despatched day after receipt of order, subject to stock availability, for an additional charge of £5.00.

3. Delivery
Delivery will be made to the address specified by you on the completed order form. Please note that we can only deliver products within the United Kingdom Mainland (excluding the Channel Islands).

In the event that the Product has already been dispatched at the date of receipt of your cancellation of the order you must return the Product to Lifestyles and Lifestyles will credit your credit or debit card with the price of the Product to you within 30 days beginning with the day on which notice of cancellation was given. If you do not return the Products within 30 days of your notice of cancellation, you will be deemed to have accepted them, at which point a new purchase contract will be made and you will be charged for your order at the price set out on the web site. This does not affect your statutory rights.

If you are returning a Product because of an error on the part of Lifestyles or because it is faulty, you must contact Lifestyles in advance and Lifestyles will refund your cost of returning the Product.

For your protection, we recommend that you use a recorded delivery service when returning a Product or otherwise obtain a Post Office proof of posting or insurance to cover the value of the unwanted Products.

As stated above, you will be responsible for the costs of returning any Products unless they have been delivered to you in error or the Product is faulty.

In addition to your right to cancel above, Lifestyles will accept most returned Products within 21 days of receipt as long as they are unworn, unused and in their original packaging.
