These terms do not supersede your statutory rights under the Sale of Goods Act, but are designed to clarify the principles and procedures of how we operate. Placing an order signifies that you agree to our terms and conditions of sale.
The Hettie Trading Company reserves the right at any time to modify, alter, amend or update these terms and conditions, and you agree to be bound by such modifications, alterations, amendments or updates.
Prices
Hettie reserves the right to alter prices at any time, without prior notice. All orders are subject to acceptance and to availability of the goods ordered.
Damage & Loss in transit
Hettie does not accept liability for delays or Damage & Loss in transit.
Governing law
Each and every transaction carried out is deemed to be completed within the United Kingdom and therefore shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with English Law. The terms of this charter (and any dispute, controversy, proceedings or claims of whatever nature in relation to them) shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with English Law and the English Courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction.
Risk & Retention of title
Under normal circumstances, goods must be paid for prior to dispatch and the risk of loss, breakage and damage and all other risks shall pass to the customer when the goods have been dispatched.
Goods shall remain the property of Hettie until payment in full has been received and cleared. In the event of any default in payment the company reserves the right to reclaim the goods concerned. Title of the goods does not pass to the customer until payment is received in full by Hettie.
Confidentiality
We take all reasonable precautions to keep information supplied to us by customers strictly confidential. We do not supply our 'mailing information' to third parties but do use it to advise our clients of goods and services we feel may be of interest to them, unless expressly instructed otherwise in writing.
Information supplied to us may be stored on a computer system for our convenience, but will not be supplied to any outside agency. We prefer you to use the secure transaction services to make credit card transactions since this service is completely independent of our organisation and your credit card details are not divulged to us at any time.

Shipping policy
We are pleased to deliver to the UK, Europe, the USA, and Worldwide.
Please note that customers are responsible for any customs fees or taxes levied by your country. We are not accountable for delays in customs clearance. Since Britain left the EU, shipments to EU countries will normally incur VAT at local rate and handling fees upon import.
At present, orders to the USA under the value of $800 are exempt from any import tax.
