Terms of Sale

When you place an order on our Site you automatically agree to our Terms and Conditions. After you place an order, you will be taken to our “Order Receipt page”, which confirms all your details, your order, and your order reference number. However, please note that this does NOT mean that your order has been accepted.

All card payments are subject to authorization by your card issuer and we take payment on the day that the order is placed. Once your details have been verified you will receive your ‘Order Confirmation’ email. Unless you cancel your order, acceptance of your order is when we dispatch the goods and completion of the contract between you and Gene Bendi Online Limited is when you receive the goods. We will send you a Dispatch Confirmation email confirming that the order has been dispatched. Up until the point of dispatch your order may be subject to further validation checks.

We can only accept orders for items that are shown on the Site as being in stock. If an item is out of stock we offer a facility for you to receive an email when the item is back in stock. In the unlikely event that we cannot supply you with any or all of the items you ordered we will inform you by email. If you have already paid for the item we will refund you in full as soon as reasonably possible.

We reserve the right to refuse to supply any person for any reason at any time at our sole discretion, including, but not limited to, our inability to obtain authorization for payment. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of our withdrawing any merchandise from the Site; removing, screening or editing any materials or content on the Site; refusing to process a transaction or unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorize payment to Gene Bendi Online Limited, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

Orders placed using PayStack will only be dispatched if the payment qualifies for Paystack Seller Protection.

By registering with russellandbromley.co.uk you are accepting these Terms and Conditions and consenting to such checks being made. In performing these checks personal information may be disclosed to a registered Credit Reference Agency which may keep a record of that information. You can rest assured that this is done only to confirm your identity, that a credit check is not performed and that your credit rating will be unaffected. All information provided by you will be treated securely and strictly in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.

Furthermore, we will take all reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order and payment secure but in the absence of negligence on our part we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorized access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the Site.

Amendments

We are unable to amend an order once it has been placed. Please ensure you check your order details are correct before submitting it to us.

Dispatch and Delivery

Orders can be delivered either to an address within our branches of Gene Bendi or Nigeria. We are unable to deliver to PO Box addresses and freight forwarding addresses.

We will endeavor to deliver within the timeframes stated. Sometimes, factors outside of our control will prevent us from delivering on time. At peak times we may lengthen estimated delivery times or suspend next day delivery options.

We are responsible for each package until it is delivered (or, in the case of an order delivered to store, when the goods are in your possession) at which point responsibility for your purchased goods transfers to you. If a signature is obtained from someone other than you at the delivery address you have specified then you accept that this signature constitutes evidence of delivery and responsibility for the goods transfers to you in the same way.

If you are not at home when the courier attempts to deliver you will be notified telling you where your order can be collected from or notifying you when delivery will be attempted again.

If the parcel you receive is damaged or has been tampered with please check the contents before accepting it from the courier and reject the package if there are items missing.

Disputed deliveries will be fully investigated with the couriers and may take up to 10 business days (from the time we are notified) to be resolved.

You can return any of the items that you purchased online for a refund by using one of the following methods of return:

• Return to your local Gene Bendi shop
