1. Ordering of goods
The buyer means the person who has bought or agreed to buy the goods from Maple Textiles.
For each order that you make an e-mail will be sent to you confirming that your order has been received.
However, if at any time Maple Textiles becomes aware of any detail, information or documentation that it feels should be checked after your order has been placed, we retain the right to cancel this order at any time before delivery.
If your order is not accepted, for any reason, Maple Textiles shall inform you by e-mail within 3 days of the order being placed.
Maple Textiles reserves the right not to supply you goods at our discretion and will not deliver any order that has not been paid for in full.
All of our stock is subject to availability so in some cases we may not be able to supply the quantity of stock you have ordered. In the event that this happens or if there is a delay in your order we will contact you.
Some Curtains and blinds need to be ordered directly from the supplier. Usually items that need to be ordered in can take up to 14 days until they are despatched. In the event there is a delay we will keep you informed.
2. Prices
The prices for the goods are those stated on the web site but these may be subject to correction without any liability on the part of the seller.
Maple Textiles offers the goods to the Buyer in accordance with their quotation displayed on the web site.
The prices of goods displayed on the web site are inclusive of VAT. Delivery will be charged in addition to the quoted prices as indicated in the checkout pages.
Our delivery charge for standard sized items is £6.95 per order with free delivery on orders over £150 (excluding the delivery charge)
Prices and delivery charges quoted on the web site are clearly displayed and only apply to goods delivered within the UK except the Highlands of Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man.
3. Credit Cards and Debit Cards
When placing an order you will be asked for your credit or debit card details.
Maple Textiles accepts credit and debit cards from Visa, MasterCard, Switch/Maestro, Solo, Electron and Visa Debit.
Protx, an independent Payment Service Provider for authorising online credit and debit card payments, first checks the card details used to purchase goods. You will be informed by e-mail if Protx cannot accept the processing of the card within 24 hours.
This protects both you as a customer and Maple Textiles as a supplier of goods against fraudulent transactions.
4. Delivery of goods
Maple Textiles employ, a nationally recognised courier service to deliver your goods.
Please note you must ensure there will be someone present at the delivery address to sign for the parcel(s). However we can leave your parcel in a "safe place" if you specify on the special instructions section in the checkout. If you want to change the delivery address after making your order then an additional charge of £13.90 will be charged. Please ensure you correct the delivery address before confirming the order. Where the delivery address is different from the cardholders address, we reserve the right to contact you before dispatching the goods and, if we feel necessary, cancel the order.
Any changes in the expected delivery time will be e-mailed to you within 24 hours of you placing your order (Monday to Friday, excluding Bank/Public Holidays).
5. Right to cancel an order
You may cancel your order at any stage before the goods are dispatched to you.
To cancel an order you can contact us on 01670 813927.
Once your order has been dispatched then your order cannot be cancelled. If you would like to return your order please follow the Returns and Refunds Policy.
6. Returns and refunds policy
If you are not satisfied with any of the goods delivered, you may return them to Maple Textiles within 14 days of delivery. We shall refund any unused items that are returned to us in their original saleable condition and with the original packaging. For any items that are not returned in their original saleable condition we reserve the right to refund only a percentage of the original purchase price.
The delivery charge is non-refundable.
If you are returning the goods to the shop then you must return the goods with the sales invoice.
7. Exchanging Faulty, Damaged or Incorrect Goods
If the goods we deliver are faulty or damaged or not what you ordered, Maple Textiles will exchange the goods immediately or issue a full credit to you including delivery charges upon receipt of the said goods. To help keep our prices as low as possible we may ask you to send the goods back to us by Recorded Delivery. We will refund any delivery charges you incur.
If you are not satisfied with the goods for any other reason, we will exchange or refund any unused items in their original saleable condition and original packaging, if you return the goods within 14 days of delivery.
8. General
Maple Textiles makes every effort to deliver the goods on time and ensure they match your expectations.
However, we cannot be held liable in any circumstances for non-performance of our trading terms because we are impeded by events such as acts of God, war and other hostilities, accidents, strikes, import delays and other events not within the reasonable control of Maple Textiles.
