4.2 If you exercise your right to cancel your order after the goods have been despatched, you will be responsible for returning the goods to Camera Centre UK at your own risk and cost, therefore, we strongly recommend you use an insured delivery method such as Royal Mail Special Delivery. 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 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 as if you were in a bricks and mortar store). Any non-faulty item that is returned either in a used/marked condition or missing accessories will incur a deduction from the refund to reflect the loss of value.
- It must not have been used or installed. It should be returned with the original box, packing and accessories you received with it. Gift vouchers must not have been redeemed, either partially or in full.
- Software, film, memory cards, DVDs, and video tapes can only be accepted if still sealed. This policy is to avoid any potential breach of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act (CDPA) 1988 and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679. All opened software is exempt from return under the terms of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2014. Software that arrives damaged or is physically faulty may be returned under our normal returns policy.
- This offer does not apply to film developing or printing services.
- 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.
- Where we have made a charge for postage, this will be deducted from your refund if the goods have been despatched to you.
4.3 You cannot cancel your purchase when:
- The seal has been broken on any film, video tapes, DVDs, CDs, memory cards, or software; or
- The goods were a special order to your specification; or
- 14 days has elapsed following receipt of the goods
Until such time as you return the goods to us you must take reasonable care of the item(s) and not use them. Any use of the delivered goods beyond that necessary to inspect the goods upon delivery will invalidate your right to cancel the contract.
4.4 Faulty or incorrectly described Goods
You will always have the option of an exchange or refund if the fault occurs within 30 days of delivery.
4.5 To qualify for a refund or exchange the products must be:
- In otherwise "as new" condition; and

You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to arrange for a courier to deliver the goods to you, or alternatively to collect the goods yourself from our premises.
Camera Centre UK is willing on your invitation and as your agent to instruct Royal Mail or DHL to deliver the relevant goods on your behalf for the prices set out below.

Camera Centre UK will (unless you instruct us otherwise) collect payment of the delivery rate from you, and as your agent pay such amount to Royal Mail or DHL.
Any liability in connection with such delivery shall be between Royal Mail or DHL and you, and shall not involve Camera Centre UK.
If you elect to arrange for someone else to deliver the goods to you, or will collect the goods from Camera Centre UK's premises in the UK, you should make the appropriate election and contact Camera Centre UK to make arrangements for the goods to be made available for collection. No collection of the delivery rate will be made by Camera Centre UK in these circumstances.
When placing your first order Camera Centre UK reserves the right to request the goods be delivered to your billing address (registered card address) as a matter of fraud prevention. If this is required Camera Centre UK will contact you at our earliest opportunity via the email address you provide when placing your order.
All goods purchased using our finance option must be sent to the address you provide the lender, Novuna Personal Finance, in your finance application.
