Definitions and Interpretation

To make these Terms and Conditions easy to read We have defined some of the words. If a word begins with a capital letter then this means that the word has been defined. A list of the defined words is set out below:
“Product(s)” means the product(s) which are available for purchase, and described, on Our Website;
“Terms and Conditions” means these terms and conditions of sale which You can access on Our Website;

Placing an order

3.1 This section sets out how a legally binding contract will be formed between You and Us.

3.2 You may purchase Product(s) from Us by placing an order on Our Website or by calling Our sales team on 0736 027 5022. You must be 18 years or over to place an order and be authorised to purchase the Products.

3.3 You are responsible for ensuring that the information You provide to Us is correct (including Your email address and delivery address for the Products ordered), otherwise We may not be able to confirm Your order and deliver the Products to You.

3.4 We will send You as soon as possible an email to the email address You have provided to Us confirming receipt of Your order, Your payment, Your order number and personal details (“Order Acknowledgement”).

3.5 No order has been accepted by Us until We have received payment from You or a third party finance provider and have sent You an Order Acknowledgement. A contract will be formed when We accept Your order in accordance with this paragraph but You will still have the right of cancellation in accordance with section 9 below.

3.6 We will contact You if Your order has not been accepted. This will usually be because:
the Product(s) are unavailable;

We cannot authorise Your payment;
You are not allowed to purchase the Products from Us;
We are not allowed to sell the Products to You;
You have ordered too many Products;
there has been a mistake on the pricing or description of the Products; or
matters have arisen in respect of an application by You for credit and / or finance.

Product Specifications

4.1 We and Our suppliers have a policy of continuous product development and reserve the right to amend the specifications of any Products without prior notice in relation to future sales. This includes adjustments to sizes or ornamental detailing on individual items purchased.
Products supplied may differ slightly, therefore, from those on display or advertised online.

4.2 All Our furniture is made from natural wood and accordingly appearances may vary. Some woods will mellow with age and exposure to sunlight.

4.3 When You are purchasing Our furniture, You are buying pieces where varying degrees of distressing is generally applied. This is very much intended and makes each piece totally individual as designed by the manufacturers. We sell only genuine rustic designs with varying degrees of distressing from piece to piece; this may involve wood splits, wood filling, knots, purpose distress/scratch marks, antiquing etc. Certain degrees of filler will be used on Our oak and mango furniture. This is common and part of the manufacturing process. Please note that Our mango items are usually of a very rustic nature and a heavy distressing is usually applied. This may appear as a dulling or rubbing effect to the waxed finish. Knotty and grainy woods are used; this is as intended by the supplier. This does not affect Your statutory rights and as such, if You believe that the condition of the Product(s) delivered to be faulty or not as described, then please read section 10 below and / or contact Our customer services department.

4.4 Leather Products are made from quality natural leather and accordingly they may not be uniform in colour or texture and may exhibit traces of natural markings such as scars and bites. Every effort is made to display as accurately as possible the colours of Our Products that appear on Our Website and in other promotional materials. We cannot guarantee however the complete accuracy of the pictures or photographs that are shown. Many conditions such as Your monitor or screen settings and batching can affect the colouring of items in a picture. Colour shades may vary from those on a digital display due to the nature of computer generated images.

4.5 Most of Our Products do not require any home assembly, however on occasions, to aid in delivery or to avoid damage, Our designers have deemed it best that certain Products will need a small amount of home assembly. This includes all dining tables and beds and some wardrobes, occasional tables and sofa Products. Any handles e.g. for drawers and wardrobe doors may be on the inside of the drawers and doors. Products needing home assembly will be clearly identified in the individual Product description on Our Website. Our designers aim to ensure that any assembly is as straightforward as possible and that it in no way detracts from the quality or structural integrity of the Product. We do not unbox any of Your Products or assemble any of Your Products. As Our drivers operate to a strict timetable it is important that any other deliveries that day are met on time.

4.6 Our solid hardwood furniture will require treating with wax immediately upon receipt. Ensure that You wax the whole Product, not just the top and repeat every six months with natural wax polish. Please treat Your furniture immediately on delivery as Your Product may have been in shipping for some time and modern home heating will accelerate the drying process. Failure to treat Your wood furniture as instructed can result in problems that will not be covered by Your warranty. This does not affect Your statutory rights and as such if you believe the condition of your items is unacceptable then please contact the customer service department.

4.7 On rare occasions, due to extreme climate changes in shipping You may find slight swelling on doors or drawers, making them stiff to open. This will usually rectify itself within a week once the timbers adjust to their new environment and heating conditions. You may also find that simply swapping the drawers will remedy the issue. You should however contact Our customer service team to advise Us as to any such problems and We will agree with You the best and most appropriate remedy, which may include sending an independent furniture technician to inspect the item and, if You agree, effect a suitable repair. Please be aware that You are purchasing natural timber Products where slight timber movement in shipping is a possibility. Stiff drawers or doors may rectify themselves in a short period of time.

4.8 For more information on the correct care procedures for the Products, please read Our Furniture Guides and Owner’s Manual.
Clearance Products

5.1 From time to time We have a specifically marked section of Our Website marked as “clearance”. Products purchased from Our clearance range may be products from discontinued ranges, clearance products and / or products which have been previously removed from their packaging. All of these items are otherwise new and Our clearance range does not contain any items which have been previously delivered to and returned from other customers. This does not affect Your statutory rights and as such, if You believe that the condition of the items delivered to be faulty or not as described, then please read section 10 below and / or contact Our customer services department.
Prices

6.1 The price of the Product(s) is as notified to You by Our telephone sales team or as indicated on the order pages when You submit Your order to purchase the Product(s) on the Website (as applicable). All prices are in Pounds Sterling, include VAT, where appropriate, at the prevailing rate and are subject to any promotional offer or discount.

6.2 The prices displayed on Our Website are for online purchases and promotions only and are not transferable to sales through any other means. Prices relating to any online promotion are valid strictly until midnight on the day on which the promotion expires.

6.3 We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Product advised to You is correct. However, it is always possible that, despite Our best efforts, some of the prices for the Products may be incorrect. If We accept and process Your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by You as mispricing, We may end Our contract with You, refund You any sums You have paid and require the return of the Products from You.

6.4 Our pricing policy can be found on the pricing policy page of Our Website.
Payment

7.1 You can pay by finance, credit, charge or debit card at the time of order. The price of any Product is the price in place at the date and time of Your order. You undertake that all details You provide to Us for the purpose of purchasing Products which may be offered by Us on Our Website will be correct; that the credit, charge or debit card which You use is Your own and that there are sufficient funds or credit facilities to cover the cost of any Products. We reserve the right to obtain validation of Your finance, credit, charge or debit card details before accepting Your order.

7.2 Payment will be taken in full at the time of the order.

7.3 An additional option of consumer finance may be taken by You, subject to status. The contract shall not have been concluded until any documents that require signatures are returned and completed. We cannot be responsible for delays to Your delivery date caused by the late return of signed finance agreements.

7.4 We reserve the right to accept either a discount code or cashback, but will not accept both on one order. Cashback arrangements are made through an affiliate programme and are not a direct arrangement with JV Furniture.
Delivery

8.1 Please check the measurements and delivery access to Your home. It is important to check the measurements of Your Products by visiting Our Website or by calling Our customer service team. Please ensure that there is adequate doorway and stair access. We cannot accept any liability for any extra costs incurred by You as a result of incorrect or incomplete measurements or information supplied by You.

8.2 Please check that the route from the lorry to Your room of choice is safe and free from potential problems or hazards. As Our staff have not visited Your home and cannot advise whether Your Products will fit, We ask that You take reasonable steps to ensure that the Products can be successfully delivered to You. This includes making sure that the lorry can get to You and measuring any door or ceiling heights, plus twists and turns (including Your stair banister) that might cause difficulties when We deliver. Your order will typically be delivered via a large lorry, so please be sure Your property is accessible for this type of vehicle. If You think there may be an issue, please call Us prior to delivery.

8.3 It is helpful if You can be at Your home to accept the delivery, because no one knows it better than You. If You are unavailable to accept the delivery, please note that there must be someone over the age of 16 at Your property to take the delivery for You.

8.4 Please take reasonable steps to remove any internal or external tripping hazards, furniture, ornaments, wall fixtures or cables that will obstruct the route to Your room of choice. We cannot be held responsible for any damage to these items if they are not removed, unless caused by our negligence. Please note that Our drivers are not allowed to remove their shoes (for health and safety reasons) when delivering such heavy items, but they do wear paper overshoes to avoid unnecessary marks to floors and carpets. You should take care to ensure that the route is safe and accessible before the delivery team arrive. We recommend you take steps to cover floors and carpets if necessary, and where possible secure temporary coverings to avoid tripping hazards. We cannot be liable for failure to deliver due to inaccessibility or for marks, scratches or damage caused to Your property, internally or externally, unless such damage is caused by Our negligence

8.5 We are only able to deliver to addresses in the United Kingdom mainland (including mainland Northern Ireland). Delivery to certain postcodes may take longer than others.

8.6 Although the majority of Our Products are in stock and can be delivered to You within 30 days, certain items such as sofas may need to be delivered at a later stage due to longer lead times. We will advise You of any required lead times at the point of ordering.

8.7 Your order confirmation shows your delivery date.

8.8 Although We endeavour to offer flexible delivery dates, Our delivery is subject to availability.

8.9 Any changes made to Your order might impact the delivery date. We may be unable to deliver Your Products on Your confirmed delivery date should changes occur. If We are unable to deliver Your entire order on the same day, We will deliver Your order in instalments. We will not charge You for deliveries in instalments unless this is a result of Your request.

8.10 If We are not able make the delivery at the pre-arranged time due to factors under Your control, (e.g. the Products do not fit), We may charge You failed delivery returns fees to cover Our direct costs. These are based on the size and number of items and are detailed at section 9.7. We will not charge You failed delivery returns fees if You contact Our home delivery team to rearrange delivery of the Product(s). In such circumstances, only a £49 redelivery fee will be payable by You.

8.11 Time of delivery is not of the essence. We will not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by You through any reasonable delay due to unforeseen circumstances.

8.12 In the unlikely event that there is an issue with Your Product(s) on arrival, please notify Us upon becoming aware of it and Our customer service team will help to resolve the matter for You as quickly as possible. Once Your service case has been raised, a member of Our customer service team will look into the best way to resolve the situation and You will be contacted within two Working Days. Product issues are only dealt with by Our customer services team. Please do not report them to Our home delivery team or shop staff and please do not return Products to the store. We will require You to provide certain information about the reported fault (including a photograph of the damage that You can load onto the Website) to enable us to investigate and resolve the issue. Nothing in this paragraph affects Your statutory rights.

8.13 If You choose to have Your Products delivered to Your own third party carrier, We will not accept any responsibility or liability for any damage to Your Product(s) once they are out of Our control. Any forwarding delivery is at Your own risk.

8.14 For orders containing multiple items, the delivery date offered to you is based on the availability of the product with the longest delivery.

8.15 The Product is Your responsibility from the time We deliver the Product to: (i) the address You gave Us; or (ii) to Your own third party carrier.

8.16 You own the Product once We have received payment in full and have delivered it to You or Your own third party carrier.

8.17 Please note that We cannot facilitate the removal of any of Your packaging.
