Delivery:
All mainland UK orders will have a £3.95 P&P charge applied, all orders
shipped to the Channel Islands, Northern Ireland, Scottish Islands
and BFPO addresses will have a £9.99 P&P charge applied.
Items ordered will be delivered as soon as possible and we aim to
process each order within 24 hours of receipt. Although you can have
the goods delivered to any address within the U.K. we recommend that
there be someone to sign for the goods upon delivery to speed up the
delivery time and avoid any delays. Deliveries are usually between
Mon-Fri (9.00am - 5.30pm). We reserve the right to deliver the goods
to the cardholder's address.
Redirection of Consignment Once Despatched:
Unfortunately, we regret to say there is up to a £10.00
surcharge should the parcel need to be re-routed to a different address
once despatched (We do recommend that all orders are sent to an address
where a signature is available). This is because we are charged for
this service by our couriers and we cannot absorb this cost.
We reserve the right to change the delivery prices without prior
notice. While we make every effort to ensure that delivery takes
place within 3-5 Working Days, we cannot guarantee any delivery
times.
Delivery to non-mainland UK destinations may incur a delay in delivery.
In the event that we cannot deliver your order or a part of your order
we will endeavour to inform you within three working days via email.
If Royal Mail or Parcel
Force attempt delivery and there is no-one available to sign for the
parcel a card will be left which will include details regarding what
to do next. Delivery is normally attempted once by Royal Mail
and twice by Parcel Force on consecutive working days. If you have
any problems or question regarding the above please email: sales@gear-zone.co.uk.

Price and Print Errors:
Whilst we make every effort to ensure that all details published are
correct no responsibility will be accepted for errors and omissions.
We reserve the right to alter specifications and prices without notice.
Occasionally when we remove products and especially if you find
a product through a search engine the item will display at £0.00.
This is because search engines sometimes provide stored, cached
pages (old 'copies') to speed the search process up. We reserve
the right to refuse sale in this situation. Please go to http://www.gear-zone.co.uk,
clear your computer's Temporary Internet Files (e.g in Microsoft
Internet Explorer go to the Tools menu > Internet Options >
Delete Files) then refresh the page. If you then try looking for
the item it should not display.
