FORMATION OF CONTRACT

When the customer requests to purchase a
product, service or event on this site, such a
request amounts in law to an offer only to
purchase at the stated amount. No binding
contract in law is formed until such time as
contact is made by MAS to the customer to
confirm the details.

AVAILABILITY All products are offered
subject to availability on receipt of order. If
certain varieties of grass or clover are not
available we reserve the right to substitute
comparable strains. In all such cases they will
be of equal merit and the customer will be

customer’s responsibility to inform MAS

The web site will not stop the customer from
ordering seeds or plants that are not for a
suitable soil or climate. We will not refund
this type of mistake, but we are willing to
send a more appropriate replacement if the
customer is willing to pay for the cost of
return, and any difference in price owing.
|
|

|
Owing to scarcity of supplies we reserve the
right to amend prices in the on-line catalogue
where necessary without notice. This will be
avoided as far as possible. The price in the
catalogue at the time that the customer ordered
is the one he/she will pay.
