We will endeavour to deliver your Products within the delivery times as set out in the Order Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within a reasonable period from the date of the Order Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.

9.4 It is possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the Products listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We usually verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures, and where a Product's correct price is less than the stated price on our site, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Product's correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will , at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.
9.5 We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you an Order Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.
