If You place an Order, We are not obliged to accept that Order and the Contract between Us will only be formed if and when We accept Your Order. You may include any number of items within a single Order, subject to any restrictions set out in these Terms and each Order which You place will be a separate Contract between Us. We reserve the right to refuse to supply Goods to any person.

7.2 We may amend prices at any time.  Where there is a difference between a price at the time the Order is made and when it is accepted, We will inform You by email or telephone and ask You if You wish to proceed.  If you decline and for any reason payment has already been taken, it will be re-credited to Your credit or debit account.

All credit and charge card holders are subject to validation and security checks as well as authorisation by the card issuer and any additional terms imposed by the issuer. If the issuer does not authorise payment, We will not accept Your Order and will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

7.6 If We do not have sufficient stock of Goods, We will notify You by e-mail or telephone and Your credit or debit card transaction will be cancelled so that You will not be charged. We will do this as soon as possible and by no later than 30 (thirty) days from the due delivery date. We will not be responsible for any compensation if Goods which You order are not available for any reason.

7.7 We will validate the names, addresses and other details supplied by You against commercially available records (including Electoral Roll data and credit reference services). We may also use third parties to do this. Information which You provide to Us may be disclosed to a registered credit reference agency which may keep a record of the information. By ordering from Us You agree to such checks. These measures are taken to protect You, to ensure Your shopping experience with Us is as secure as possible.

8.3   We will refund the money due to You as soon as possible but by no later than 30 (thirty) days from the day on which You tell Us that You wish to cancel. We will refund the full price of the returned Goods. If You cancel the Contract by telling Us in writing that You want to do so within the legal “cooling off period” (within seven working days of the day after You receive the Goods – see Clause 8.1 above), then We will also refund any delivery charge which You may have paid when We sent the Goods to You. Please note though that if you want to return only some items but keep the rest of Your Order, You may not be entitled to a refund of the delivery charge if anything goes wrong.

8.4  We warrant that the Goods which we supply are of satisfactory quality and are fit for the purpose for which Goods of that nature are commonly supplied.

8.5  If You return Goods to Us for a reason other than if You change Your mind, We will inspect the Goods and either replace them or refund the full purchase price for Goods which We reasonably accept are defective or faulty or which are otherwise not in accordance with the Contract. This is subject to You returning the Goods to Us within a period of 7 (seven) days from delivery where you believe they are faulty for any reason. This is known as the “Warranty Period".

8.6  We will replace the Goods or refund You provided that the defect or fault is not caused by usual wear and tear, damage caused deliberately or accidentally, Your negligence or if You fail to follow product instructions or if the Goods have been misused, altered or repaired without Our approval. Any refund will also include any delivery charges which You have paid and Your cost of returning the Goods to Us. If We do not find any fault or defect then Your cancellation and refund rights are limited to those set out also in Clauses 8.1 to 8.3 above although this does not affect your statutory rights. Taking account also of Clause 9 below, the remedy in this Clause 8.6 represents our entire liability to You for any claim under the Warranty Period or any other warranty or condition in respect of the Goods which the law provides in so far as We are permitted to limit Our liability to You.

8.7 If You believe that Goods have a defect then You should not make any further use of them before returning them to Us.

These are Your rights granted by law and which cannot be changed by Us.

8.8 If You wish to return Goods in accordance with Clause 8.5 You may return the Goods in an unused condition to Us (by courier or recorded delivery please,) to the address in Clause 8.2

8.9.A If for whatever reason you feel that any items are missing from your delivery this must be reported to us in writing with-in 48 hours of receipt of your goods. Failure to do so means We are not liable for the cost of the goods.

8.9.B Finally, whenever You return Goods to Us either because You believe they are faulty or because You change Your mind, We ask that Goods are returned to Us, either by recorded delivery or courier so that You have proof of posting. We will not be responsible for Goods which are lost or damaged in the post.

If We are unable to deliver the Goods within the indicated timescale, We shall use reasonable efforts to tell You this by e-mail and give an amended delivery time. We will not be liable for the consequences of any delay. Our liability to You is capped at the limits set out in Clause 9.2 above.

We will try to replenish low stock levels as soon as possible although We will not be obliged to do so. If You Order more than one product, We do not guarantee that all Goods will be delivered to You in one delivery and We reserve the right to deliver in instalments.

10.3 Ownership of the Goods will only pass to You when We receive full payment including delivery charges (if applicable). The Goods will be at Your risk from the time of delivery and You should therefore take reasonable care of them.

10.4 Goods will be delivered to the address which You provide in the Order process. You must provide a valid address for delivery.

12. GENERAL

12.1 We will not be in any way responsible to You for a failure to sell Goods which You wish to buy or otherwise for a failure to comply with Our obligations under the Contract or any costs or liabilities which You incur as a result of any circumstances beyond Our reasonable control including but not limited to any act of God, flood, fire, trade dispute, lack of third party materials or services or terrorist acts.

12.2 The Contract between You and Us is binding. You may not transfer or assign Your rights or obligations to another person without Our express agreement.

12.3 If any clause of this Contract is found in any way to be void by a Court or other competent authority then all other clauses of the Contract will continue to apply.

12.4 If either We or You do not at any time act on any rights which we have under this Contract then it will not affect the rights of either of us to enforce any rights at a later stage. If either of us chooses not to rely on a right which we have, it will not affect any other rights which either of us has.

12.5 This Contract is subject to English law and both We and You agree that any dispute arising under or connected to it will be decided by the English courts.

Where You have already placed an Order which We have accepted, the Contract will remain subject to the version of the Terms which were in place at the time at which You placed Your Order.

12.7 Nothing in these Terms seeks to exclude or limit any rights available under applicable law which cannot be excluded or limited. This means that these Terms will not change any rights which the law grants to You which that law does not allow Us to change or limit.

and in each case it should be sent to the address set out at Clause 8.3.

12.9 A person who is not party to this Contract shall have no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of it which means that only We and You have rights under it. This does not affect any right or remedy of any person which exists or is available otherwise than under that Act.

12.10 The Contract is the entire agreement and understanding between Us in respect of its subject matter and will supersede and replace any prior agreements, understandings or arrangements whether written or verbal. We each acknowledge that in entering into the Contract neither of us has relied on any representation or promise given by the other or implied from anything said or written other than as specifically set out in the Contract or on the Website.

TERMS OF TRADE

All orders below £1,000 plus VAT will require 100% payment with the order confirmation before production begins.

Trade credit terms are available by separate negotiation.

On orders over £1000 Orion will accept a non-refundable deposit of 50% with an order confirmation before production begins. The remaining 50% balance is to be paid and cleared before despatch.

Whilst the products supplied bear the Orion brand logo the customer cannot purport to represent or make any commitment on behalf of the Orion which includes but is not limited to Orion teamwear Limited.

Whilst every effort will be made to deliver orders to the 8 week target, this is a target and due to seasonal trends this can be extended at anytime even after an order has been confirmed, The target is not guaranteed and not contractual.

Orion Teamwear Limited reserves the right to split the supply of the ordered goods into more than one delivery.

Orion Teamwear Limited reserves the right to perform credit checks on all customers and request payment of an order in full BEFORE the order will be progressed.

Bespoke garments are "made to order" based on customer confirmation of all order details. Refunds/Returns for bespoke team wear orders with a confirmed customer order will not be accepted.

Whereby Orion has failed to comply with the confirmed customer order instructions or the product is faulty we will happily exchange the product within a reasonable time scale.

Notification of an issue/fault with an order must be made by phone/email/fax/letter to Orion within 48 hours of delivery. The goods must be retained in unused condition and the cost of any loss or damage will be borne by the customer.

Through confirmation of this order you agree you have full permission for the use of any logos and accept full responsibility for any subsequent actions taken by parties associated with said logos.

Refunds/Returns on stock garments purchased through the Orion Stock Shop must be made within 28 days of receipt. All items must be returned "as sold"; in a resalable condition, in their original packaging, swing tags and tickets attached and unused. If you wish to return an item but are unable to meet the above requirements, Orion cannot accept the item back. We also regret that delivery charges or carriage cannot be refunded for returned items (unless returned due to a fault with the product) and an additional charge of £4.50 (UK or Ireland) or £9.50 (rest of the world) is applicable to any item sent in exchange (unless sent due to a fault with the product).

Whilst every effort will be made to deliver orders placed on the Orion Stock Shop within 7 days (GB) and 28 days international, this is not contractual.

For avoidance of doubt, these conditions will be governed by English Law.
