that all items on the website are in stock although inevitably sometimes we do
run out of stock of some items. When we sell out of a product we will either
remove it from the website or mark it on the website as "awaiting
stock".

of stock prior to your order being dispatched, we will backorder for you. We
will endeavor to email you with the option to cancel your order if you would
rather not wait.

recovering the goods from the amount to be re-credited to you.
