Our terms and conditions apply to all transactions carried out on this website, via email, post or through our telephone sales lines. By placing an order with us, you are agreeing to be bound by these terms, and they shall take precedence over any 'conditions of contract' on offical purchase order forms.

2. The contract between yourself and Oaks Online Shopping Company Ltd, trading as GreenmanBushcraft.co.uk shall be governed by the laws of England and Wales, and any dispute between both parties will be resolved exclusively in the courts of England.

3. Goods are subject to availability. If an order is placed via our website and there is a ‘green tick’ along with the words 'in stock' then that item is currently available (disregarding any human error). If the listing states 'available to order' then it’s generally in stock, but on occasions this may mean the stock is on it's way to us and there may be a delay of 1-2 days. Should we be unable to honour an order, we will contact you and a full refund will be offered.

4. Order acceptance. When an order is placed online, by telephone, email, post, or in person, the order will be considered as accepted by Oaks Online Shopping Company Ltd when you checkout online and complete payment, or (if not shopping online) when we supply an invoice to you.

The only exception to this is if a pricing error has occurred, either caused by us, or by a browser display issue - in which case you will be given the option to proceed at the correct price and be charged the difference, or cancel your order and be granted a full refund. If we’re unable to contact you for whatever reason, we will automatically cancel the order after 30 calendar days.

However, if you are not 100% satisfied for whatever reason, then you can return your order in accordance with our 30-day money back guarantee for a product refund.

9.
