Title to any product ordered will pass to you once Sarah Bowen Lighting has received payment in full for that product.
If your delivery address is outside of the United Kingdom you maybe subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. Any such additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you. You should note that customs policies vary widely from country to country; Sarah Bowen Lighting advises each customer to contact their local customs office for further information.
Please note that when shipping products internationally you should be aware that cross-border shipments are subject to opening and inspection by customs authorities.

Returns Policy
In accordance with your statutory rights as a consumer, claims for refunds, replacements or repairs will be offered as applicable if goods are found to:
- Not be of satisfactory quality,
- Not be fit for the purpose for which they were sold,
- Not correspond with their description,
- Not correspond with a sample on display, and/or
- Be sold without good title
The cost of returning goods under the rights indicated above will be borne by us.
In addition, under the Distance Selling Regulations 2000, when you buy goods over the internet (or other distance selling medium) you have the right to cancel your contract at any time up to 7 working days after the day of receipt. You must notify us of your intention to cancel the contract, under these provisions, within the cancellation period and preferably in writing. You must take reasonable care of the goods whilst in your possession; and they must be returned promptly, and as far as is practicable in their original condition and packaging. You are entitled to remove the goods from their packaging for reasonable examination but you may be liable for any loss of value resulting from any damage or alteration caused whilst in your possession. Please be aware that the cost of returning the goods, under these provisions, is to be borne by you, and we strongly advise you return via recorded delivery and retain proof of posting.
We ask if you could examine all goods delivered as soon as they arrive, and notify us of any problem with the goods within 24 hours. We will have a claim, against our couriers for any items they damage in transit while being sent to you, and therefore request that you keep all packaging with the goods in order to ensure such a claim is not invalidated.
The above statements are not intended to be a full indication of all your rights as a consumer. Full details of your rights when buying over the internet, and otherwise, are available from your Trading Standards and/or Consumer Direct.
Bespoke Product Returns Policy
Unfortunately we are unable to offer a refund on any bespoke product unless faulty or broken. This is in accordance with S.13(c) of The consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000. We therefore ask you to think carefully when ordering a bespoke product to ensure your satisfaction.
