Placing an order
The price of our products will be displayed in GBP and transactions will be made in that currency.
We are not obligated to accept your order and reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order once it has been placed. This may be done, for example, if:
– your payment is not authorised or has been marked as fraudulent, or potentially fraudulent, by the payment system;
– payment has been made using a card not issued in a country we dispatch to, or not where the billing address is;
– there is an error on the website regarding the price or description of a product; or
– if you have requested a bespoke product and it is not possible for any reason to carry out the work requested.
By placing an order with us you are confirming that any information you have given is true and accurate and that you are authorised to use the card on which payment was made. We are not responsible for any delay resulting from an inability to validate or authorize your payment.
We are not liable for any breach of agreement, for delay or failure to perform if the delay or failure is due to acts of God, civil commotion, riots, floods, drought, fire, legislation or other cause beyond our reasonable control. This does not affect your statutory rights.
Our products
All products are subject to availability, which is subject to change. Images of products shown on the Website, and colours shown on screen, are reproduced as accurately as our electronic processes allow, but may not always represent the exact image or colour of the final product. The specifications of timber, stains, fixings, finishes and other goods may also be subject to change over time. Due to the nature of some of the timbers and finishes used there will also be natural variations in colour and surface markings. No guarantee is given that the furniture supplied will be an exact replica as appearing on the Website and the Company will not accept returns or claims of any sort on this basis.
We reserve the right to amend the details and specifications of our products as necessary, or to conform with any changes in UK or EU requirements.
We try to ensure that information regarding products on our website is as accurate as possible. However, we cannot be held responsible for any inaccuracies or errors which appear on the Website.
Prices
All prices are in pounds sterling and include VAT at the prevailing rate.
The prices shown on our product listings do not include delivery. Additional delivery charges will apply and will be shown separately itemised on your shopping cart prior to checkout.
Prices are subject to change. However, in the event of a change in prices, these will not affect any order which has been placed and agreed.
Delivery
Delivery services are provided by a third party delivery service provider. Uncommon Projects are not liable or responsible for the acts or omissions of the delivery service.
Delivery will be made to the address you have provided to us. It is your responsibility to ensure that there is an adult available at the address to sign for and receive the products. Delivery will be made to the ground floor entrance of the premises only. Please contact us if you require a different level of service. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure any furniture can fit through doorways or staircases, where applicable.
Responsibility for the goods will pass to you upon delivery. The customer should inspect the goods on receipt. Any damage or faults with the item should be written on the delivery paperwork at the point of delivery. Once goods have been delivered and signed for the customer is responsible for any damage or loss of parts.
Please let us know of any scaffolding or temporary structure which may impede delivery. We reserve the right to refuse delivery where, in our reasonable opinion, it would put our delivery personnel at risk. An example of such a situation would be where delivery of a heavy piece of furniture is requested over part of a building site.
We make every effort to deliver your goods within the expected timetable. However, delays sometimes occur due to unforeseen circumstances. Time is not deemed to be of the essence of the contract and the Company accepts no liability for any losses, costs, damages or expenses incurred by you or any third party arising directly or indirectly out of any failure to meet any estimated delivery date.
Cancellation and Amends
If you wish to cancel or amend an order you should do so in writing by sending an email detailing your order number, contact details and requirement to info@uncommonprojects.co.uk or by phoning +44 (0) 20 8617 1554. We will endeavour to fulfil you request. However, if your order is bespoke and has already started you will be charged a reasonable sum for the costs incurred.
Ex-display Items
We may sell some ex display or clearance items. These items may have some damage or parts which are missing. We will endeavour to inform you of any such defects, but otherwise these items will be sold ‘as seen’.
For security reasons, refunds are given by the same method that the original payment was made by.
Returns policy
If any products you order from us are bespoke, made-to-order products you will not be covered by the Distance Selling (The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013) (the “Distance Selling Regulations”), which means that you are not entitled by law to a refund, unless the products are defective. Cancellation of Orders in such cases will therefore only be accepted if the Company has agreed in writing to such cancellation and on condition that you reimburse the Company all costs and expenses or losses and damages resulting from the cancellation.
If you purchase appliances from the Company or goods which are not made bespoke, and you are a consumer as defined in The Distance Selling Regulations, you have the legal right to cancel your order up to 14 calendar days after the day on which the contract is entered into. You will be given a full refund minus the original delivery fee. You do not need to give us any reason for cancelling your contract nor will you have to pay any penalty. If your products have already been delivered to you, you will however be required to return them at your own cost and in good saleable condition (which means in their original packaging). In the event of any damage to the goods or their packaging, the Company shall be entitled to deduct a reasonable amount to compensate the loss in sales value of such items.
For returns you must email info@uncommonprojects.co.uk or call +44 (0) 20 8617 1554
Goods should be returned to:
Uncommon Projects Ltd
Unit 4, Mentmore Studio, 11 Argall Avenue, London E10 7QE
We recommend you use insured and/or registered post and keeping the proof of postage as we cannot be responsible for goods lost or damaged in transit.
Wood finishes
We use high-quality furniture grade veneers and plywood. However, as a natural product this can vary in grain, colour, knots and other markings. We cannot accept returns based on natural variations. If you have a special requirement for the wood finish please contact us prior to placing the order.
Wood can have dimensional changes depending on the temperature, humidity and moisture present. This can lead to warpage and shrinkage issues. We cannot accept returns based on the furniture being stored in usual conditions and this causing damage to the product. However, please note most movement can usually be rectified by fixing the temperature or moisture issues in the environment.
