Prices

All prices are quoted net in UK Pounds (£, sterling) excluding cost of packaging, carriage and insurance.

Carriage & Insurance

Once requirements are known we will then provide an actual shipping quotation to end destination (with insurance if required) and provide a final purchase amount.

Payment Terms

We prefer to receive funds in British Pounds sterling by cash, cheque (made payable to Abbeyfield Antiques), postal order, banker’s draft or PayPal. If sterling pounds are a problem for you, we can accept payment in US Dollars, Euros, or other currencies by agreement. We will confirm the conversion rate to be used prior to finalising any transactions. We prefer to receive payment by registered mail (for mutual security) or electronically directly to our bank (details on request).

Dispatch Arrangements

Dispatch is on the basis of payment prior to shipping.  We guarantee to dispatch all orders placed within three working days of receipt of cleared funds. Where this is not possible, we will confirm delivery schedule at the time of order placement.

Packing/Insurance

We will pack all items appropriately for international dispatch worldwide. We strongly recommend, particularly with fragile or high value items, that insurance cover is taken out against loss or damage. If you require us to insure on your behalf, please confirm at the time of order placement.

Description of Goods

We aim to describe as fully and accurately as possible all items offered in our inventory. We will point out any known faults or restoration which may have occurred. Additional information and digital images can normally be emailed to assist in making a final purchase decision.

Warranty

All items are guaranteed original unless otherwise stated in our description. Items are sold as described on the basis of historical collectors' pieces and cannot be guaranteed for the original use for which they were intended as much of our stock is now at least 60 years old. We cannot accept any liability for any items used for purposes other than display.

Returns Policy

We are unable to give a warranty on items purchased for the reasons detailed above. For your added protection, if you are not 100% happy with any article or articles purchased from us, we operate a refund policy. Goods must be returned in the condition as received, appropriately packed, and at the buyer's own expense within 14 days of receipt. We will then refund the agreed purchase price of the item excluding outward carriage and insurance.

Force Majeure

Abbeyfield Antiques cannot accept any liability for all and any circumstances outside of the Company's control.

Limitation of Supply

Abbeyfield Antiques reserves the right to withhold certain items from our inventory for supply to some international destinations to avoid infringing any local restrictions.
