Terms and Conditions

Returns Policy

We sell commercial equipment and therefore any order accepted is classed as a "business to business" transaction. These transactions are not covered by public consumer law, but by business law. By ordering from Shopstuff UK Ltd either online, over the phone, on our other channels such as eBay and amazon or in person in our showroom you are accepting that the transaction is "business to business" and that the item ordered is being used in a trade, business or profession associated to you and not for personal use. We have extensive information on all our products online and remember you can call us before ordering to double check suitability. We have included extensive product information and in some cases demonstration videos to encourage all customers to order the correct machine for their requirements. Alternatively, we have a showroom you can visit to see goods before purchasing (please call beforehand to check item availability). Please note showroom prices may vary from some of the internet exclusive deals available.

We have compiled a list of ‘returns scenarios’ and the costs associated within them –

Can I cancel an order for a standard product that hasn’t been dispatched yet?

On certain products yes you can, but any refund given will be subject to a minimum administrative charge of £10 + vat. We incur bank card processing charges on the final vat inclusive invoice amount as soon as the order is placed, which we cannot recover. This charge covers the initial bank fees incurred and the bank refund fee charged to us and the administration for initially processing your order and the refund. Orders for certain items cannot be cancelled, see list below of items that cannot be cancelled.

Can I cancel an order for a programmed till that hasn’t been dispatched yet?

Yes you can, but any refund given will be at the price of the till on our Bronze service shown on the web site as we will have incurred bank card processing charges, labour costs involved with programming your till and administration charges with processing set up sheets etc. When a programmed till is ordered, the stock is allocated to you, we unbox the till, install batteries and place it on a PDI test awaiting your set up sheet, please ensure that you can fill out and return the set-up sheets before making your purchase as once unboxed we are unable to sell this till as new and it will be offered as a catalogue return.

Can I cancel an order for a product that has been dispatched, but not yet received?

On certain products yes you can, but we will have incurred courier charges to send and then re-route your item back to us, we will also have incurred card processing charges when you placed your order and again to process the refund none of these are we able to claim back. Once returned the machine will be classified as a catalogue return and offered at a lower selling price due to condition of the outer box. The charges below cover our loses as described above and depend on if the product was a standard shipped product or has been customized to your personal requirements as additional labour has been incurred.

Programmed Till:- refund amount web site Bronze price less 20%, £10 bank charges & £20 courier charges.

Bronze Price Till:- refund amount web site Bronze price less 20%, £10 bank charges & £20 courier charges.

Can I return an item that I have ordered in error, doesn’t fit or that I simply don’t want?

Within a strict 7 day time frame, certain products can be returned, but we will offer your returned item as a catalogue return only at a lower selling price, so to cover our already incurred courier, bank and lower selling price the following refund charges are applied.

Ordered in error returns can only be accepted on unused tills within 3 days of delivery and it’s the customers responsibility to ensure the till is returned to us undamaged and ready for sale as a catalogue return. Please contact us if you want to change your till for a different model as in some situations we are able to offer this as an alternative option.

No – unfortunately we are unable to accept returns on non-electronic items.

Further Information

Unless otherwise implied, we nor the manufacturers offer advanced swap outs, replacements or loan machines, so you are advised to factor your own backup plan if the item purchased is critical for use, to cover the absence of machines, if being sent back under warranty.
