1.1 These terms constitute a legal document ("the Agreement"), which sets out the rights and obligations of you as a user or purchaser ("you") and those of Polygon Direct (UK) Ltd ("Yamax UK", "we" or "us") in relation to the products and services offered by us through this website or any of the other websites owned by us (“the website”). By using the website, ordering products from us or registering for Yamax UK services, you agree to the terms of this Agreement, and you re-affirm that agreement every time you use the website or any of our services.

1.2 You agree to: provide true, accurate, current and complete information about you as prompted by any of our online forms. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or Yamax UK has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Yamax UK has the right to cease supply and refuse you any and all current or future use of the Yamax UK website (or any portion of it) and any affiliate websites/stores.

1.3 We reserve the right to: modify or withdraw, temporarily or permanently, this website (or any part thereof) with or without notice to you and you confirm that we shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification to or withdrawal of the website; and/or change the Agreement from time to time, and your continued use of the website (or any part thereof) following such change shall be deemed to be your acceptance of such change. It is your responsibility to check regularly to determine whether the Agreement has been changed. If you do not agree to any change to the Agreement then you must immediately stop using the website.

1.4 By placing an order through the website, you warrant that you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts.

1.5 You should print a copy of these terms and conditions for future reference.

2. Written communications

2.1 Applicable laws require that some of the information or communications we send to you should be in writing. By accessing our website, you accept that communication with us will be primarily electronic through e-mail or notices posted on our website. For contractual purposes, by accessing this website you agree to this electronic means of communication and you acknowledge that all contracts, notices, information and other communications that we provide to you electronically comply with any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. This condition does not affect your statutory rights

3. Placing an order

3.1 A notice will be displayed on your web browser before you submit an order with Yamax UK. This contains important information such as a description, price and delivery charges of the good or services ordered. We suggest that you print off a hard copy of the notice or save a copy to your hard drive for your own records.

3.2 You place the order for your products on the website by pressing the confirm order button at the end of the checkout process. After placing your order, you will receive an automated acknowledgement. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm acceptance to you by confirming that your order has been dispatched. Once we accept your order, a contract to purchase and deliver goods takes effect between you and Yamax UK.

3.3 The contract to sell goods to you only relates to those goods listed in the confirmation email. We will not be obliged to sell any other goods which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of your goods has been confirmed in a separate confirmation email.

3.4 We will take all reasonable care to ensure that all details, descriptions and prices of products appearing on the website are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. Although we aim to keep the website as up-to-date as possible, the information including product descriptions appearing on this website at a particular time may not always reflect the position at the moment you place an order. In the event the products ordered are not as described, Yamax UK will give you the right to reject the goods within a reasonable time period for a full refund.

3.5 The website contains a number of goods and it is possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the goods listed on the website may be incorrectly priced. If we discover an error in the price of the goods you have ordered, we will inform you as soon as possible. We will give you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or cancelling it.

3.6 We are under no obligation to sell incorrectly priced goods to you at the incorrect price if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as an error.

3.7 Goods being delivered to you will be at our risk from the time of dispatch until the time of delivery to you.

3.8 All prices shown are inclusive of VAT at the applicable rate, as defined by HM Revenue & Customs. Should the applicable VAT rate change, Yamax UK reserve the right to adjust retail prices accordingly. For items which are placed on back order, VAT will be charged at the applicable rate at the time of dispatch.

3.9 You agree that we may use personal information provided by you in the course of placing your order to conduct any appropriate fraud checks. As part of these checks, personal information that you have provided may be disclosed to a credit reference or fraud prevention agency, which may keep a record of that information.

3.10 When placing an order on our website you agree to receive marketing communication from Yamax UK. If you wish to unsubscribe you may do so by clicking the unsubscribe link on any of our email newsletters or calling us on 0333 700 1966.

3.11 We will take all reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order and payment secure, but in the absence of negligence on our part we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorised access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the website.

4. Returns and cancellation policy

4.1 Subject to the right of consumers to return goods for refund under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, Yamax UK does not sell products on a trial basis. Customers are strongly advised to check suitability and specifications of products before ordering.

4.2 Yamax UK offers customers the opportunity to return goods up to 30 days after receipt (“the Returns Period”), subject to the terms and conditions in our returns policy.

4.3 You must prior to returning any goods received, contact our Customer Services Department on 0333 700 1966 or inform use using electronic means of your intention to return a product and/or cancel an order. Failure to contact us in respect of a return or cancellation in line with one of the methods set out above may result in a delay in processing your refund or the product being returned to you. All authorised returns must be returned to Polygon Direct (UK) Ltd, Returns Dept. The Hearne, Wenlock Road, Tasley, Bridgnorth, Shropshire WV16 5AZ.

4.4 If you exercise your right to cancel your order after the goods have been dispatched and received by you, you will be responsible for returning the goods to Yamax UK at your own risk and cost, and you should return them within 14 days. Therefore, we strongly recommend you use an insured delivery method, such as Royal Mail Special Delivery. For items which cannot ordinarily be returned by post, we will at your request use our reasonable endeavours to arrange a courier to collect the goods; the estimated maximum cost of this would be £10 per item. (See 4.9 below in relation to the return of faulty goods.)

4.5 All returns are subject to the following conditions, except where the goods are faulty or incorrectly described on the website.

  • Your product must be complete, including all accessories, in its original box/packaging and in 'as new' condition (e.g. if you have opened the box to examine the product you must have done so without damaging or marking the product or packaging). We may accept returns within the Returns Period that do not fully comply with this requirement, but this will be subject to agreeing a restocking charge to cover the loss that we might reasonably expect to incur in reselling the item(s).
  • Software, memory cards and DVDs can only be accepted if still sealed. This policy is to avoid any potential breach of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act (CDPA) 1988. All opened software is exempt from return under the terms of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. Software that arrives damaged or is physically faulty may be returned under our normal returns policy.
  • A proof of purchase must be supplied.
  • You must return any free gifts which came with the product.
  • We will not refund any items that have been specially ordered to your individual specification or personalised.

4.6 Until such time as you return the goods to us you must take reasonable care of the item(s). Any use of or damage to the delivered goods or product packaging beyond that necessary to inspect the goods upon delivery may result in you incurring a restocking charge to cover the loss that we might reasonably expect to incur in reselling the item(s).

4.7 Subject to 4.6 above, if you exercise your right to cancel your order within 30 days (where the goods are not found to be faulty), we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

Please see an example of this in our after sales information page.

Faulty Goods

4.8 You will always have the option of an exchange or refund if the fault occurs within 30 days of delivery. If there is a fault with your product within six months of delivery but after the first 30 days, we will offer a repair in the first instance. As an exception you may be offered an exchange or full / partial refund. After six months but within 12 months we will offer a repair only. In all cases we reserve the right to inspect the product and verify the fault and, if no fault is found, return the product to you. In these circumstances, no refund will be processed until the returned goods have been received by us and an appraisal made as to any fault. This promise does not cover faults caused by accident, neglect, misuse or normal wear and tear.

If you return goods claiming they are defective, we will examine the returned goods and will notify you of your refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time. We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case within thirty (30) days of the day we confirm via e-mail that you are entitled to a refund for defective goods.

If a refund or reimbursement is payable to you, we will offer to transfer the money back into the PayPal account originally used or send a cheque or refund to your credit card.

4.9 Any refund due to a fault or other defect within the first six months following purchase will include a refund of the delivery charge. In such circumstances we will pay your costs of returning the goods to us (up to £10 in the UK and £20 outside the UK). Beyond six months you will be responsible for covering the costs of returning the goods. We strongly recommend you use an insured method such as Royal Mail Special Delivery. Replacement goods are sent by standard delivery only (i.e. premium services are not available).

4.10 Refunds will be processed within 30 days of receipt of the returned products or sooner.

4.11  You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the goods while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation. This applies to all goods that are returned.

Our returns policy does not affect your statutory rights. DETAILS OF YOUR STATUTORY RIGHTS ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE CITIZENS ADVICE BUREAU OR CONSUMER DIRECT.
