However if we discover an error in the price of Product(s) you ordered, please see clause 17.6 for what happens in this event.
17.2 Prices for the Products may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order which we have confirmed with a Dispatch Confirmation.
17.3 The price of a Product shown includes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Products in full before the change in VAT takes effect.
17.4 The price of a Product does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as quoted on our site from time to time. The delivery charge incurs an additional VAT charge.
17.5 Both Delivery and VAT charges will be shown on the Confirmation & Payment page, before you continue to payment.
17.6 Our site contains a large number of Products. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that:
17.6.1 where the Product's correct price is less than the price stated on our site, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Products to you. However, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price; and
17.6.2 if the Product's correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing.
