We are not obliged to accept any specific order.

We may retain the products if proof of age or a suitable adult is not available to accept delivery. Please always drink responsibly - www.drinkaware.co.uk

Pricing

6. Unless otherwise stated as part of your ordering process, your order will be priced as part of that and related confirmation.

You are not obliged to accept delivery of goods where the price is higher than that set out in your confirmed order.

7. Where items are ordered and sold individually by weight, the price of these items (expressed per kilogram or other appropriate unit of measurement) will be the price on the date that they are weighed and packed by our team. Where we have an indicative price/kg guide and an indicative product weight guide on an order confirmation, this is merely to assist your planning and the price you will be charged is the price prevailing on the date of weighing for the actual weight you receive. In the event that there is a discrepancy between the price/kg on our website at me your order is made and the price/kg at the me the item is weighed by our team, the price you will be charged will be the price at the me the item is weighed by our team.
