5. Product purchases

5.1. You must be over the age of eighteen to purchase from MarketMovers. If you have ordered from us and cannot be at home at your selected delivery time, it is your responsibility to ensure that a suitable person aged eighteen or older is there to receive the order. 

5.2. You may submit orders for Products by using our online ordering facility on the Website at any time after you have created an account. The facility and our communications to you in relation to any order or contract will be in the English language. The facility allows you to review your order and make any corrections before submitting it to us and by submitting the order you confirm that you have made any such corrections. 

5.3 Each Product for which you click 'Add to basket' is added to a 'shopping basket' facility. You are given the opportunity to review the quantity, delivery date and frequency of order of each item in your shopping basket when you choose to 'Basket'. You can change these, or cancel the purchase of each of the Products completely, at this stage, at any time before clicking 'Checkout'. After you have clicked 'Checkout' and after our acceptance of your order, items are added to your delivery in addition to any items that you have previously ordered. The Website still allows you to review all the Products that you have already ordered from us, and make amendments and corrections to them until the deadlines published on the Website. You can do this by clicking on 'my deliveries' whenever you are logged in. 

5.4. Your submission of an order amounts to an offer to enter a contract to buy the Products from us; subject to paragraph 5.3, you cannot then withdraw or cancel your order except as stated below. 

5.5. No order is accepted from you until our Website displays an order confirmation message. This message is displayed after you click 'Confirm Order' in the shopping basket 'Checkout Confirmation' page. When you order by telephone, your order will be accepted (or rejected, as the case may be) verbally by our staff. A contract for our sale of Products to you arises on our acceptance of your order. 

5.6. Where we accept an order, we do all that we can to ensure that your order is fulfilled. Products are, however, subject to availability and market conditions and we do not always know if a Product is or will be available at the time of accepting an order. If we are unable to deliver an item you have ordered, we may offer a reasonable substitute. You may reject that substitute, and you will not be charged for it, or, if you have paid already, we will refund any amount paid for it. If we do not offer a substitute, we will remove the Product from your order so that you are not charged or, if you have paid already, we will refund you the price. We will, however, bear no liability for unavailability of Products. 

5.7. Subject to clauses 5.8 and 5.9. below, the price that we charge you for the Products will be the price stated by us on the Website prior to you clicking the 'place order' button. 

5.8 All Products offered by us are subject to seasonal changes in supply levels and supply prices. If you are a 'subscription' customer (e.g. where you choose to have repeat orders of Products) the prices for certain Products may therefore differ from the price for those Products when first ordered by you. The prices for all Products ordered on a subscription basis shall be those prices for the Products stated on our Website. We recommend that you check the Website regularly. The Website still allows you to review all the Products (and their prices) that you have already ordered from us, and make amendments and corrections to them until the deadlines published on the Website. 

5.9. Some of our Products are priced by weight (for example, some meat and fish Products). We show the prices for weights on the Website. The guide weight is for guidance only; the weight you receive may vary from this guide and the price you are charged will be for the weight of Product delivered. 

5.10. Ordering a Product from us carries with it the obligation to pay for it unless we receive from you a cancellation of or change to your orders before the deadlines published on the Website. We are also happy to inform you of these deadlines by telephone if you wish to call us. You remain responsible for ensuring that any such change or cancellation is not only transmitted by you, but received by us, in time for the deadline. We reserve the right to deliver and charge in full for any order unless we have received notice of cancellation before the published deadline. This deadline is important since, typically, we make up the deliveries for despatch to you the day before delivery and obtain some of the Products especially to fulfil your order and may not be able to sell the Products elsewhere. Any payments you have made for orders which have been properly cancelled will be recredited to you. Despite the foregoing, if you are a consumer, then you may also cancel the order in accordance with paragraph 9.3 below insofar as the order is for non-perishable Products. 

5.11. Despite the above provision, you are entitled to cancel a payment for Products where fraudulent use has been made of your payment card by a person not acting, or to be treated as acting, as your agent. If you have already made a payment where your payment card has been so fraudulently used, then you should approach your card issuer for recredit to your card. 

5.12. We sell only to end users and our Products are not for re-sale. You warrant that you shall not re-sell any of the Products. 

5.13 All prices for Products are inclusive of any applicable VAT.

5.14. You can pre-order some items that are not yet available for immediate delivery. Pre-Orders can be reviewed, updated, or cancelled at any time before pre-order items are processed. Please contact us to review or cancel a pre-order, or to update the following:

  • The payment method associated with the pre-order. For example, the credit card associated with the pre-order (including changes to the credit card type, credit card number, billing address, and expiration date)
  • The item quantities
  • The delivery method for physical products
 

All pre-orders require full payment at the time the pre-order is placed. we process full payment for the item(s) immediately in the same manner we process payments for in-stock items. If the customer wishes to change or cancel their pre-order before it has been processed, we will refund the full amount paid. Please note that if an in-stock item is ordered in combination with a pre-order item, delivery charges will not be refunded. In-stock items ship immediately.  Pre-ordered items ship as soon as they are in-stock. Pre-ordered items ship within one business day of arrival at our warehouse.  An estimated ship date is posted on the item description page.  Should this estimated date be surpassed, you will be notified by email and given the option to cancel the pre-order for full refund. We reserve the right to cancel any orders for any reason at any time. If we need to cancel an order we will email you (the customer), but are under no obligation to obtain permission or acknowledgement, prior to cancellation.

We reserve the right to change our prices at any time. Pre-orders do not have a guaranteed pre-order price. If a price increase occurs we will notify you via email. If we do not receive a response within 72 hours we will cancel your order, refunding the full amount paid.

Communication is very important to us; please contact us if you have any questions.
