OUR ONLINE TERMS & CONDITIONS

By using or accessing our website and/or placing any order(s), you agree to be legally bound by these terms and conditions. If you do not wish to be bound by these terms and conditions then you may not use or access our website or place orders.

These terms relate to sales over the Internet and over the phone with OakFurnitureland.co.uk.

The contract made by you on-line with us incorporates these terms and conditions, which shall prevail over any and all terms and conditions, proposed by you.

You should not proceed with your purchase until you have read and agreed to these terms and conditions.

1. PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS

1.1 We and our suppliers have a policy of continuous product development and reserve the right to amend the specifications of any goods or products without prior notice in relation to future sales. This includes adjustments to sizes or ornamental detailing on individual items purchased. Please email or call ahead to check exact sizes or potential ornamental changes as on occasions minor adjustments may have been made by our supplier.

1.2 Products supplied may differ as a consequence from those on display or advertised. Unless agreed with you, the products supplied will be of equivalent value, functionality and appearance.

1.3 All our furniture is made from quality natural wood and accordingly appearances may vary. Some woods will mellow with age and exposure to sunlight. When you are purchasing our furniture you are buying handmade furniture where varying degrees of distressing is generally applied. This is very much intended and makes each piece totally individual as desired by the craftsmen. We sell only genuine rustic designs with varying degrees of distressing from piece to piece; this may involve wood splits, wood filling, knots, purpose distress/scratch marks, antiquing etc etc. Certain degrees of filler will be used on oak furniture this is common and very much part of the manufacturing process. Please note that our Indian items are usually of a very rustic nature and a heavy distressing is usually applied, this may appear as a dulling or rubbing effect to the waxed finish, knotty and grainy woods are used, this is as intended by the supplier.

1.4 Leather products are made from quality natural leather and accordingly they may not be uniform in colour or texture. Only the finest hides are selected but they will show natural marks and scars on the hide.

1.5 The majority of our products are sold fully assembled, however on occasions certain pieces will need minimal assembly, this has been deemed fit to protect the item in carriage.

1.6 We endeavour to display as accurately as possible the colours of our products that appear on the website. However we cannot guarantee the complete accuracy of the pictures or photographs that are shown. Many conditions such as monitor settings and batching can affect the colouring of items in a picture.

1.7 From time to time we have a specifically marked section of our site marked as clearance ranges, when you purchase items from a clearance/discontinued range please note that this stock is new and boxed. The items are from a discontinued range and as such are being sold as seconds. These items have been excessively handled so may have knocks, scratches or other defects due to being over handled. The sale price takes this into consideration.

1.8 The majority of our products are designed with no home assembly needed, however on occasions to aid in delivery or to avoid damage, our designers have deemed it best that certain items will need minimal home assembly. Items needing minimal home assembly will be clearly identified in the individual item description. Oakfurnitureland designers have to the best of their ability ensured any assembly is as simple as possible and in no way detracts from the quality or structural integrity of the product.
We will not accept any liability for any extra costs incurred by you as a result of incorrect or incomplete measurements or information supplied by you, or minor alterations made by the supplier. Please email ahead if a small change in size may deem the item unusable.

1.9 Our solid hardwood furniture will require treating immediately upon receipt and approx every 3 months with natural wax polish. This is available on the website in three carefully selected colours; which are specially formulated to treat oak, mango and mahogany furniture. Please treat your furniture immediately on delivery as your item may have been in shipping for some time and modern home heating will accelerate the drying process. Failure to treat oak items as instructed will result in drying and cracking.

2. MEASUREMENTS

2.1 We will not accept any liability for any extra costs incurred by you as a result of incorrect or incomplete measurements or information supplied by you, or minor alterations made by the supplier. Please email ahead if a small change in size may deem the item unusable.

If you wish to return the goods within the 7 days, please take reasonable care of the items and it would help if you retained the original packaging.
Please return goods in the same condition as received. We request that if you or the carriers open the box to examine the product please do so without damaging the box and packaging or damaging the product in any way. Please re-package as received in order for us to re-sell the item as brand new. If the carriers unwrap an item please ensure the packaging remains with the customer. Please do not allow carriers or any other party to destroy any packaging as we request the item to be returned with original packaging.
Please take into account before purchasing our furniture that once items are dispatched from our warehouses, return charges will apply if the customer cancels. Therefore it is essential if canceling an order to let us know immediately to avoid unwanted items being dispatched.

Returns and Refunds Enquiries:
Please note if any items are damaged or faulty please always call us on 0845 873 8088 or email within 24 hours to report this matter however, your query will not be processed until you have provided us with the S/C or BPC number printed on the packaging.
We can arrange collection and return of the items at a cost of £50 per item.
Please do not return items without prior authorisation. The returns authorisation is valid for up to 7 days only from delivery.
Goods sent back without prior returns authorisation will be returned back to you and the cost of delivery charged to your account.

Refunds:
Full refund of the cost of the goods is wholly conditional upon the above conditions being met and the refund authorised only after a full inspection of the goods by our Returns department to check for completeness and correct product return.
For goods received back complete as NEW and unused (including all mattresses); you will be refunded the full invoice amount less cost of return.
Please note on rare occasions due to extreme climate changes in shipping you may find slight swelling on doors or drawers thus making them stiff to open, it is important not to return or refuse the item if this is case. Usually this will rectify itself in a matter of 7 days once the timbers adjust to their new enviroment and heating conditions, you may also find that simply swapping the drawers will remedy this. However on rare occasions the timber movement may not settle and you may need to sand or shave a small amount from a drawer or door, if so please shave from the bottom of the drawer front or from the side of the door as this will not be noticeable with regards to the look of the furniture. A simple touch of furniture wax will then protect any adjustments made. Currently less than half of one percent ( 0.50% ) of our furniture is affected by timber movement ,however please could we ask you to bear in mind that you are purchasing natural timber products where slight timber movement in shipping is a slim possibilty. Therefore stiff drawers or doors will not be deemed as faulty or defective.This means you are purchasing our furniture on the understanding that any necessary simple adjustments would be need to be undertaken by the customer at the customers expense. If you do not wish to undertake any adjustments needed and wish to return the item we will of course offer a refund under our full 7 day moneyback offer.
Please take care to research all the above points further with your local specialist as to avoid any disputes after purchase.
If you are unable, for whatever reason, to facilitate collection of your goods on the confirmed date arranged, you must inform the carriers at least one working day in advance so that another date can be booked. If, through no fault of their own, our carriers cannot gain access on the date agreed, return charges will apply.
