If the alternative date(s) is not accepted, the original booking will be cancelled and the Advertiser shall be entitled to a full refund if the Advertiser has paid in advance for the Advertisement. This shall be the Advertiser’s sole remedy for failure to publish the advertisement.

26. Nothing in these terms and conditions shall affect the statutory rights of an Advertiser who is a consumer.
Liability of the Advertiser
27. The Advertiser will fully reimburse TVM for all claims, losses or expenses arising as a result of any breach or failure to perform of any of these Terms and/or the use or publication of the Advertisement by TVM in accordance with these Terms.

Buying Goods & Services
60. T-VINE may offer you the opportunity to purchase goods and services. Some of these goods and services will be provided directly by us (and we shall notify you in each instance where we are the seller). In such cases the legal contract for the provision of these goods and services will therefore be made directly between you and T-VINE’s owner Prickly Pear, and will be governed by the terms and conditions set out in clause 32, together with any additional terms notified to you at the time of sale.
61. Where goods and services are made available on T-VINE by a third party through a third party website linked to or framed by our Website; or provided by us acting as agent for a third party, the legal contract for the goods and services provided will be made between you and that third party (the “Merchant”) and the Merchant’s terms and conditions shall apply to the sale and supply of the goods and services (the “Merchandise”) in addition to these User Terms. These terms are set out in clause 31.
62. Accordingly, we cannot give any undertaking that the products you purchase from third party sellers through our Website will be of satisfactory quality and any such warranties are hereby disclaimed by us absolutely. However, this disclaimer by us does not affect your statutory rights against that third party seller.
63. Before purchasing any Merchandise, it is important you check the Merchant’s own Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy, in addition to our own Merchant Rules and User Terms. As such, you acknowledge that:
a. The Merchant (and not T-VINE) is solely responsible for the fulfilment of orders for any Merchandise and for its quality, suitability and fitness for purpose;
b. The selection of any Merchant or the purchase of any item of Merchandise from the information available on the Website or from the Merchant via the Merchant’s website or otherwise, and/or recommendations made to you by the site or otherwise, is solely your choice.
c. Any disputes or questions relating to the Merchandise shall be directed to the Merchant in question and you acknowledge that T-VINE shall have no responsibility, obligations or liability in relation to the Merchandise;
d. any Merchant’s data protection practices may differ from those adhered to by T-VINE and that T-VINE is not responsible for, and has no control over, any Data that is submitted to, or collected by any third parties; and
e. T-VINE is not responsible or liable directly or indirectly for any charge or loss whatsoever and howsoever arising or resulting from your use of or reliance on any content, material or goods or services available through, on or from any Merchant or Merchant’s websites.
64. For Goods and Services sold directly by T-VINE, the following Selling Terms shall apply in addition to our General Terms and Conditions. In the event that there are different terms on other parts of the Website referring to the sale of such goods and services that conflict with the terms set out hereunder, the terms relating specifically to those Goods and Services shall prevail.
a. Examples of Goods that T-VINE sells are tickets for a T-VINE event, books, posters, clothes and physical products in general. The specific terms that relate to “Goods” therefore generally apply to physical items sold through the Website by T VINE.
b. Example of the Services that T-VINE sells are music and/or film downloads and/or streams, and/or access to online ‘paid for content’. The specific terms that relate to “Services” therefore generally apply to digital items sold through the Website by T VINE.
c. By placing an order through the Website, you warrant and confirm that you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts and you are at least 18 years old. If you are under the age of 18 years old, you must ensure that a parent or guardian purchases the Goods or Services on your behalf.
d. For orders received through the Website, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy the goods.
e. You should print out and keep a copy of these terms for your reference in respect of any Goods or Services you buy from us.
65. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and, where you order online we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms the goods have been dispatched (the “Dispatch Notice”). The contract between us for the provision of the goods will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Notice. The contract will relate only to those goods whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Dispatch Notice. We will not be obliged to supply any other goods which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such other goods is confirmed in a separate Dispatch Notice.
66. After you place an order for Services, the contract between T-VINE and you will only be formed when we make the digital content available to you for download or access, and T-VINE has received payment in full from you. T-VINE reserves the right, at its sole discretion to reject any orders it receives.
67. Purchase and delivery of Goods and Services
a. Your transaction will be processed in a secure environment.
b. The price of any Goods or Services will be as quoted on the Website except in cases of obvious error. Prices are liable for change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you a Dispatch Notice unless in the event of a mistake (as set out below).
c. Our Website may contain a large number of products, and despite our best efforts, some of the products on our Website may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a product’s price is less than our stated price 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 the Website, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the product or reject your order and notify you of such rejection. We are under no obligation to provide the product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch Notice if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could easily have been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.
d. In respect of purchasing goods, you will be required to pay extra for delivery and it might not be possible for us to deliver to some locations. Our delivery charges are set out on the Website alongside the cost of the Goods. All postage and packing charges are subject to change without notice.
e. You can pay for T-VINE Goods and Services via PayPal and TicketScript (which will vary depending on which Goods or Services you require), which both accept payment from all major debit and credit cards including MasterCard and Visa. We charge your debit or credit card on receipt of your order.
f. In the event that you place an order for any out of stock item, we will inform you if it is awaiting stock and the anticipated arrival date of such stock. T-VINE will hold your payment and order and despatch your goods as soon as the stock arrives. We shall not substitute or replace any out of stock item without your prior consent.

e. All downloads shall be delivered to your personal computer or other device which initiated the download. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that your device is enabled to play or access the digital content.
f. We shall be under no liability for any delay or failure to deliver products or digital content if the delay or failure is wholly or partly caused by circumstances beyond our control.
g. T-VINE reserves the right to ship physical items separately or via a third party supplier. This will not affect the purchase price or delivery charges.
69. Order Cancellation, Returns and Refunds in respect of Goods only
a. You have the right to cancel your order up to seven days after you placed it without any need to give us a reason for this cancellation. You should send us an email with details of your order to that affect.

d. If the goods you receive are incorrectly supplied, faulty or damaged on delivery then please return the goods to us as soon as possible.

e. When returning goods to T-VINE for any of the above reasons, please follow the return instructions and complete the returns form enclosed with your order.

Please clearly indicate whether you would like a refund or exchange, enclose this information in the original packaging and return to the address on your documentation.
f. You cannot cancel your contract with us if the goods you have ordered are:

You should ensure that any clothing item is kept or tried on in hygienic conditions. Any hygiene seals should be kept on products and not removed unless you wish to keep the product.

If you fail to comply with this obligation then we may have a right of action against you for compensation.
h. When returning items, adequate insurance cover and proof of posting is strongly recommended. T-VINE cannot accept responsibility for parcels lost in transit. For all returns, you will be required to arrange and pay for the return of the products to T-VINE unless we sent a faulty or defective product to you.
i. T-VINE may, at its sole discretion, arrange collection of heavy items. Please contact us to arrange a collection. Where this is the case you will be responsible to pay the costs of such collection (which we will notify to you in advance).

Once you have notified us that you are cancelling your contract and that you are requesting a refund and you have returned the goods to us, any sum debited to us from your credit or debit card will be re-credited to your account as soon as possible and in any event within thirty (30) days of your notice to give cancellation subject to any rights we may have to withhold amounts to you. If you do not return the goods delivered to you or do not pay the costs of returning the goods, we shall be entitled to deduct the direct costs of recovering the goods from the amount to be re-credited to you.
l. Refunds for items bought as a gift will be credited to the original purchaser.
m. If you are exchanging Goods whereby the replacement item costs less than the one you have returned, you will be refunded the difference.
n. When you are exchanging Goods and the new purchase costs more than your original purchase, additional payment will be required.

70. Order Cancellation, Returns and Refunds in respect of Services only
a. When purchasing services (e.g. downloads of music, videos or digital versions of the Magazine, or access to online ‘paid for content’), then if you are a consumer you may (subject to paragraph 38.b) cancel your contract to purchase the services within seven (7) working days of completing the transaction to purchase the service.

b. However, your right to cancel the contract with us shall automatically expire as soon as the service begins (i.e. as soon as the file download commences or access to the online ‘paid for content’ is granted).

b. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in these T-VINE Selling Terms is intended to limit any rights you might have as a consumer under applicable UK law, including the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 or other statutory rights that may not be excluded nor in any way to exclude or limit our liability to you for any death or personal injury resulting from our negligence.
