Overview:
It is the intention of Sussex Entertainment Limited to provide customers with an efficient service, to be transparent and moral in our approach to dealing with our customers and to comply with all current regulations relating to distance selling (mail-order). If there are any problems in connection with your order, we will endeavour to keep you fully informed.
Goods and services are not sold on a trial basis – you should be sure that you have checked the suitability of a particular product or service before you order – if you are in any doubt, please contact us and speak to one of our highly-trained representatives.
We don’t sell, rent or otherwise share any of your data or information. If you choose not to receive our electronic newsletter, we will honour this request. We respect your privacy, however during the process of placing an order and receiving goods and services from us, we will send you emails to keep you informed of the progress and to act as a confirmation of your order with us. You can view our privacy policy by clicking the link to the left.
Your credit card details are stored on our highly secure database (using SSL server technolgy) for a maximum of 28 days. All credit card transactions are handled by a reputable credit card processing (Your payments are processed by The Royal bank of Scotland by Protx.com) they adopt ‘industry-best’ levels of security to protect you and us from fraud, in accordance with all current legal regulations.
We take fraud very seriously and if we feel that any transaction is in any way suspicious, in accordance with the UK banking regulations, we will have no other choice but to inform the relevant police force of any such fraud suspicions.
Stock status is now shown on our website. This is a simple calculation of the stock held in our warehouse and the stock held by either the manuacturer or our supplier. Sometimes when a supplier cannot supply this information they are asked for an exstimation. Stock status is usually quite accurate but if your order is extremely urgent or you require more than we are showing please contact us as we will probably that we have sufficient stock to hand, but it is best to check.
Subject to stock availability, although we endeavour to process orders on the working day they arrive, orders are usually processed within 2 working days from receipt. We will deliver the goods usually within the guidelines set out on this web site, however, if we cannot meet these guidelines, we will let you know. We may choose to part-ship orders, but any additional carriage charges due to this will be at our expense. If an order can not be fulfilled within 28 days you shall be entitled to a full refund less the cost of any goods already delivered.
In the event of you receiving faulty goods or services, please contact us immediately by email (this provides an audit trail). Please act quickly to inform us of any problems.
Faults should be reported to us within 7 days of receipt of your goods. Within 14 days of delivery, our courier will collect items under 10Kg gross weight or financial arrangements will be made to recover and replace the goods. Items or full consignments over 10Kg will be on a strict "return to base" basis and will be your full responsibility to return for replacement or repair. After 14 days it will be your full responsibility to return the faulty items at you own cost regardless of weight.
Physical goods are sent using either the Royal Mail or other delivery/courier companies. The companies we use to deliver goods to you will always require a signature upon delivery, therefore, please ensure that someone will be available to receive and sign for your goods.
If goods are returned to us, or in the case of Royal Mail, destroyed because the delivery person / courier company was unable to get a signature, you may have to pay a repeat delivery charge, or where the item may have been destroyed by Royal Mail, pay the order value again.
Finally, we are only human! We always try to do our best, but if we do make a mistake, let us know and we’ll put it right.
