To exercise your right of cancellation, you must give written notice to the Seller by hand/or post, giving details of the goods ordered and (where appropriate) their delivery. Notification by phone is not sufficient.
Except in the case of faulty or misdescribed goods, if you exercise your right of cancellation after the goods have been delivered to you, you will be responsible for returning the goods to the Supplier at your own cost. The goods must be returned to the address shown on the Sellers website. You must take reasonable care to ensure the goods are not damaged in the meantime or in transit.

Except in the case of faulty or misdescribed goods, if you do not return the goods as required, the Seller may charge you a sum not exceeding the direct costs of recovering the goods.
You do not have the right to cancel the contract if the order is for computer software which has been unsealed by you, or for consumable goods which, by their nature, cannot be returned, but with exception to where a fault is discovered which could not have been discovered otherwise than by unsealing the goods.

Due to the nature of proofs any supplied by Compunet Systems will only be accurate for layout and content and will not be accurate for colour comparison to the finished product unless agreed in writing (requested by customer and agreed by Compunet Systems) and therefore will be subject to extra charges for a more specific and exacting colour match on any proofs.

Where Compunet Systems offers to replace defective work the customer must accept the offer unless they can show clear reasons for refusal.
