Making a Purchase

Our website has been designed and structured to make your online purchase as easy as possible. The prices quoted on this site are specific to web orders only and may differ from our retail shop prices. All prices quoted are in UK£.

Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our store, and add any items that you wish to buy into the shopping cart. After you have finished your selection, click on 'Checkout' and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to complete the order.
If you have made a mistake in your order and cannot correct it in the shopping cart, contact us and we will correct the mistake.
When confirmation of your order is received, this is to indicate that we have received your order. It does not indicate that a contract exists between us. We will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we send you confirmation of a delivery date. We have included this term to protect us in the case that a mistake has been made in pricing, we have inadvertently under-priced goods, or we are no longer able to supply a particular product for some reason. In the case of a change of price, we will always contact you first to ensure that the revised price is acceptable.

In busier periods our stock holding may decrease quicker than our website updates. In the event that we are unable to dispatch a product due to unavailability, we will contact you to advise you and may offer an alternative at a similar price or may offer you a dearer product at discounted price to complete your order. In the event that our alternative is unacceptable we will issue a refund for that item, though the removal of the product may increase delivery charges due to revised invoice value.

Shipping and Handling

Pre-Orders

Where an item is designated as Pre-Order, we will not ship out the order until it is complete, so please be aware that one pre-order item will delay delivery of the total order. Where it becomes apparent that a pre-order item will not arrive in time for the delivery date specified, we will contact you and offer you either an alternative or refund the item in question.

Credit Card Security

Your payment is secure
The Firework Store takes security of payment card data extremely seriously. This is why all of our online payments are handled through Paypal or Stripe secure gateway..
Nobody in our organisation ever has access to your card details. We are only ever supplied with the type of card that you placed your purchase with, and the last 4 digits of your card number.

How this works
The website becomes secure once you have confirmed your order in the 'Checkout' page. You are immediately redirected to Paypal where you enter your card details. This is a secure payment page.
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)
Security of payment card data is crucial in the online world. The standard to protect card data is the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). This is a joint venture between Visa and Mastercard, supported by all banks.
Compliance with this standard is compulsory for all merchants (The Firework Store is a merchant) who accept payment cards.

Cancellation

In the event that an order is placed and paid for on our website, at that point we will allocate and pick your order.. If you need to cancel your order we require it in writing to sales@thefireworkstore.co.uk indicating your order reference. In the event that your order has been delivered, it is your responsibility to get the goods back to us.
