We accept payment via most credit and

goods as soon as authorisation has been obtained from the card issuer -
usually on the same working day if your order is received before 14.00
hours.
Making a purchase is simple. Just browse our website, click on any
items you wish to buy or use the order form on our contacts page and
put them into the shopping basket. After you have finished your
selection, click on "Go To Payments" and you will be asked
for the details that we require to complete the transaction.
Alternatively, we will gladly take your order by telephone on
normal working days 9:30 - 18:00.
If you wish to pay by cheque or bank transfer, please contact us
for payment and shipping details and we will advise the total cost.
Upon receipt of your cleared payment, your goods will be dispatched
via the chosen delivery option.
You have the right to cancel your order within 7 days for a full

Shipping
Standard Delivery to UK mainland is
included in all prices unless otherwise displayed. Standard Delivery
is 3 - 5 working days from the working day the order was
received.
Next Working Day Delivery to mainland UK is £1.99 up to £25.00, £5.99 up to
£100.00 and £11.99 over £100.00. Next Working Day Delivery is timed from the working day
the order was received. Working days
are Monday - Friday, holidays excepted. Orders received up to 14:00
will usually be processed that working day.
Non-mainland UK destinations are
subject to different delivery charges and timing. Please contact us
for details. Our services are UK
only as we do not have any export facilities.
We will try to reduce the shipping
charge to reflect very low weight/value orders or high volume orders
whenever possible. We reserve the right to manually reduce the
carriage charge accordingly on your final invoice when we feel that
this condition is met.
The courier will require a signature
for proof of delivery, so please make sure someone will be in to accept
delivery!

Guarantee
We guarantee your satisfaction. All
products carry the full manufacturer's warranty.
All products, except secondhand and ex-demo goods, leave our
premises as new and in full working order. Should you find the goods
faulty within 7 days from the date of purchase we will arrange
collection of the faulty goods and upon receipt, we will ship out a
replacement or offer a refund. Please do not return faulty goods
without first contacting us to obtain authorisation. Any goods
returned for repair or replacement must be sent in the original
condition, in all the original packaging and must include all
accessories, cables and instruction manuals.
Should any item of equipment fail through normal wear and tear
during the guarantee period, Tape Recorder will repair the unit
free of charge and return it to the customer carriage paid. It is the
responsibility of the customer to ship the faulty unit to our repair
centre at the customer's expense. Tape Recorder will not be
liable for goods in transit from the customer to our repair centre.
This does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.
