Making A Purchase 

Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our store, and add any items that you wish to buy into the shopping cart. After you have finished your selection, click on 'Checkout' and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to complete the order.

We accept card payments. If you are shopping from North America or anywhere else, place your order and your card company will convert the transaction to US Dollars or your own currency.

We accept Visa and MasterCard. We do not charge for any item until it is ready to ship. Backordered items are not charged until they are shipped. If you do not wish to pay online, you may send your card information via phone, fax or by post.

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.

When confirmation of your order is received,our system will generate a sales order form, this is to indicate that we have received your order. It does not indicate that a contract exists between us. 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.

Shipping And Handling

Postage and Packaging for delivery is charged at as near to the actual cost for ourselves as possible. We do not aim to profiteer from postage, and try to keep these costs to a minimum. We do not post Second Class.All packages sent from Trimtraders are sent via a 'Signed For' service via courier.Smaller items may be sent via Royal Mail, but this will still require a signature on delivery. This is for insurance purposes for both ourselves and our customers. The website knows the weight of your order and the shipping destination. Please choose a shipping option appropriate to your order.Only the shipping options appropriate to your order will be displayed. We use various courier services for our customers in the UK , in order to get the best combination of service and value for money for our customers.

If your goods have not arrived within 3 days of the delivery confirmation email (for International orders , please allow up to 28 days), please email or telephone to let us know. We will require a confirmation email from yourselves regarding the lost items before we can enter into the refund or replacement procedure.

Delivery Schedule 

All orders are usually dispatched the same day for all items currently held in stock, providing we receive your order before 1pm UK time Monday to Friday with the exception of English public holidays. Rarely, if we are awaiting stock your goods may be delayed for longer than this period. This only happens in exceptionally busy times and is not the normal procedure, but please allow up to 5 working days for delivery. We will try to dispatch orders received after 1pm on the same day, but if that is not possible, they will be dispatched the next working day.All goods that require a signature for proof of postage will need to be signed for on delivery, and it is the responsibility of the recipient to ensure that someone is available for delivery on the day. If the delivery is attempted, and fails, a redelivery will be scheduled automatically.If after a third attempted delivery the item is still not delivered or collected, it will be returned to us, and a redelivery cost will need to be paid for by the customer. This is the charge that our couriers charge us for redelivery, and we therefore pas this onto you to keep our cost down. If the goods are not required , then a 15% handling fee will be charged , and your money will be refunded on successful return of the items. The return of the items and its insurance is the responsibility of the customer. Customers in the Highlands of Scotland may find that their deliveries take one extra working day to arrive.
