    2. These prices include VAT. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of the Order and the date of delivery or performance, We will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Goods in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
    3. The prices for the Goods will, unless We have confirmed otherwise on acceptance of our order as per clause 4.1, exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due.
    4. It is always possible that, despite Our best efforts, some of the Goods We sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of Our despatch procedures so that, where the Goods’ correct price is less than Our stated price, We will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Goods to you. If the Goods’ correct price is higher than the price stated on Our site, We will contact you to tell you and for your instructions. If the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, We do not have to provide the Goods to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
