Signing for Goods
Upon delivery of goods please check them carefully for signs of possible damage before you sign to say that you have received them in good condition. It is not always possible to determine if the internal contents have been damaged and we strongly advise you to cross out the word ‘Received in good condition’ and write ‘Damaged’ before you sign, or to write ‘Damaged’ above your signature.
This is to ensure that if necessary, a claim can be made against the courier company.
Unfortunately our carriers accept no other wording and it is extremely difficult for us to claim that your goods were damaged in transit if you have previously signed to declare that you received your order in good condition.
If you receive a parcel, which is obviously damaged beyond all levels of acceptability, please REFUSE delivery. Do not sign for the items, then contact us immediately stating the reason for refusal. We will then resolve the problem in the best and quickest means possible. Fortunately this happens very rarely.
