If we allow you to cancel your Contract we will:

  • refund you the price you paid for the Products (excluding any delivery costs). However, please note we are permitted to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods if this has been caused by your handling them in a way that 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.


Make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within the deadlines indicated below:

(a) if you have received the Product and we have not offered to collect it from you: 14 days after 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. For information about how to return a Product to us, see clause 8.8;

(b) if you have not received the Product or you have received it and we have offered to collect it from you: 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract.

8.6 If you have returned the Products to us under this clause 8 because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of the Products in full, together with any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us OR Products that are delivered faulty or defective may be refunded at our absolute discretion provided you inform us within 24 hours of receipt. We may ask you to dispose of certain goods, safely, in accordance with our instructions.

8.7 We will refund you on the credit card or debit card used by you to pay or alternatively we will credit your account.

8.8 If a Product has been delivered to you before you cancel your Contract:

8.8.2 unless the Product is faulty or not as described (in this case, see clause 8.6), you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Product to us. If the Product is one that cannot be returned by post, we estimate that if you use the carrier which delivered the Product to you, these costs should not exceed the sums we charged you for delivery. If we have offered to collect the Product from you, we will charge you the direct cost to us of collection. Collection charges from Alminta will differ depending on your area so the price will be agreed upon prior to collection.
