No order that has been accepted by the Company may be cancelled by the Customer except with the agreement in writing of the Company and on terms that the customer shall indemnify the Company in full against all loss and costs incurred by the Company as a result of cancellation (see points 7.4 and 8.3). 1.6.   Website Orders Only: When confirmation of your order is received, this is to indicate that we have received your order. It does not indicate that a contract exists between us. We only accept the order when it has been entered onto back office systems, we will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we send you an invoice. We have included this term to protect us in the case that a mistake has been made in pricing, we have inadvertently under-priced goods, or we are no longer able to supply a particular product for some reason. In the case of a change of price, we will always contact you first to ensure that the price is acceptable. If you have made a mistake in your order and cannot correct it in the shopping cart, contact us and we will correct the mistake.
