3.2 If we cannot accept your order.
If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this (usually in writing) and will not charge you for the product. Some examples of reasons why we might be unable to accept your order include: because the product is out of stock; because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for; because a credit reference we have obtained for you does not meet our minimum requirements; because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product; or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.

15.5 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you for it but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.

8. Your rights to end the contract.
8.1 You can end your contract with us.
Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:
(a) If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or to get some or all of your money back);
(b) If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause 8.2;
(c) If you have just changed your mind about the product, see clause 8.3. You may be able to get a refund if you are within the cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions and you will have to pay the costs of return of any goods.
8.2 Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do.
If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at (a) to (e) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
(a) we have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to;
(b) we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
(c) there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
(d) we have suspended supply of the products for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than 2 months; or
(e) you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.
8.3 Exercising your right to change your mind.
For most products bought online you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms.
8.4 Rights under the Consumer Contracts Regulations.
Your legal rights under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 allow you a 14-day period to change your mind provided that you, as the customer, pay the cost of returning the goods to us. This does not affect your legal rights in relation to faulty or misdescribed products.
8.5 When you don't have the right to change your mind.
You do not have a right to change your mind:
(a) where the contract between you and us is an off-premises contract under which the payment to be made is less than £42; Off-premises means not our usual place of business.
(b) in respect of products made to your specifications or that are clearly personalised;
(c) in respect of products liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly;
(d) in respect of products sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you receive them;
(e) in respect of any products (for example, oils and fuel additives) which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery.
8.6 How long do you have to change your mind?
When you have purchased products which are goods, you have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless:
(a) Your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery to change your mind about the goods.
(b) Your goods are for regular delivery over a set period. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the first delivery of the goods.
8.7 Ending the contract where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind.
If we are not at fault and you do not have a right to change your mind, you can still end the contract before it is completed, but you may have to pay us compensation. A contract for goods is completed when the product is delivered and paid for. If you want to end a contract before it is completed where we are not at fault and you have not changed your mind, you need to contact us to let us know. The contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for products not provided, but we may deduct from that refund (or, if you have not made an advance payment, charge you) a reasonable sum as compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your ending the contract.

If you are responsible for the costs of return and we are collecting the product from you, we will charge you the direct cost to us of collection.
9.5 How we will refund you.
We will refund you the price you paid for the products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.
9.6 Deductions from refunds.
If you are exercising your right to change your mind:
(a) We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
(b) The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
9.7 When your refund will be made.
We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind then:
(a) If we have not offered to collect the products, your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the product back to us.

(c) you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the products or to you or collect them from us.

Summary of your key legal rights
Contact: Citizens Advice
If your product is goods, for example motorcycle or scooter parts or accessories listed on our website, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 says goods must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. During the expected life of your product your legal rights entitle you to the following:
up to 30 days: if your item is faulty, then you can get a refund.
Up to six months: if your faulty item can't be repaired or replaced, then you're entitled to a full refund, in most cases.
Up to six years: if the item can be expected to last up to six years you may be entitled to a repair or replacement, or, if that doesn't work, some of your money back.
Note: some items such as engines require periodic maintenance to ensure a long life. Service history may be required to support a claim.
11.3 Your obligation to return rejected products.
If you wish to exercise your legal rights to reject products you must either return them in person to where you bought them, post them back to us or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. We will pay the costs of postage or collection. Please call us on 01264 365103 or email us at info@ajsmotorcycles.co.uk for a return label or to arrange collection.
12. Price and payment
12.1 Where to find the price for the product.
The price of the product (which includes VAT as stated) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
12.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT.
If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
12.3 What happens if we got the price wrong.
It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated on our website, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you. If an item has no price, you should assume this is an error unless we stated otherwise.
12.4 When you must pay and how you must pay.
We accept payment by PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, Solo & Electron. We do not accept payment by American Express. Acceptable payment methods can be seen during the online payment process. You must pay for the products before we dispatch them. We do not add a surcharge for credit card or PayPal payments.
12.5 We can charge interest if you pay late.
If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 3% a year above the base lending rate of Lloyds Bank from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
12.6 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong.
If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know and we will not charge you interest until we have resolved the issue.

13.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us.
If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
13.2 We are not liable for business losses.
We only supply the products to consumer customers for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

14 Days Money Back Guarantee peace of mind.

You may return any unwanted, unused goods to us for a full refund, less postage cost within fourteen days of when you receive them.

The goods must be in new, unused condition and in their original unmarked (no oily fingerprints etc) and undamaged packaging and must be presentable for re sale. If you return goods with “fitting marks”, such as marks caused by fitting, fasteners, or tools, we cannot accept them for a refund.

Any goods made specifically for you
Any parts that you have fitted and removed that bear the witness marks of having been fitted
