2.1. When you place an order with us by clicking the “BUY NOW” button or proceeding through and completing the 'checkout process', you are making an offer to buy goods which, if accepted by us, will result in a binding contract. We will acknowledge receipt of your order directly through an automatically generated e-mail (acknowledgment). This does not constitute acceptance of the offer. Receipt of payment from the customer's credit card also does not indicate our acceptance. Retail Journey reserves the right to return the payment to the customer if the offer is not accepted.

2.2. Once we have reviewed your order and checked product availability we will e-mail you again to confirm that we accept your order, No binding contract shall be created until the company has indicated its acceptance in writing or the company dispatches the goods to the customer (whichever shall occur first).

2.3. The company at its absolute discretion may accept or reject any order whether on account of the equipment no longer being available or for any other reason whatsoever.

2.4. Acceptance of delivery of goods shall be deemed conclusive evidence of the customer’s acceptance of these conditions.
