our site, you warrant that:
(a) You are legally capable
of entering into binding contracts;
and
(b) Where CDs contain adult
material, you are at least
18 years old; and
(c) You are resident in the

3.
How the Contract is Formed
between Us
3.1. After placing an order,
you will receive an e-mail
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 a CD. All orders are
subject to acceptance by us,
and we will confirm such acceptance
to you by sending you an e-mail
that confirms that the CD
has been dispatched (“the
Dispatch Confirmation”).
The contract between us (“the
Contract”) will only
be formed when we send you
the Dispatch Confirmation.
3.2.
The Contract will relate only
to those CDs whose dispatch
we have confirmed in the Dispatch
Confirmation. We will not
be obliged to supply any other
CDs which may have been part
of your order until the dispatch
of such CDs has been confirmed
in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.
4.
Quality of CDs
4.1. You acknowledge that
CDs sold by us, pursuant to
the Contract, will be pre-played
CDs.
4.2.
We use sophisticated equipment
to check the CDs we sell and
warrant that, although pre-played,
the disk will be in perfect
playing condition when dispatched
to you.
4.3.
CDs will be dispatched with
all original covers, artwork,
booklets and other inserts
which were supplied with the
CDs when we purchased them
ourselves.
4.4.
The cases for the CDs will
be structurally sound but
may have some blemishes and
minor damage associated with
the prior day to day use of
the pre played CD.
4.5.
Should you receive any CD
which is defective (following
the process set out in Condition
10) or which is satisfactorily
proved by you to have been
damaged in transit, then the
refunds policy, set out in
Condition 10, will apply (such
policy not affecting your
statutory rights as a consumer).
5.
Third Party Links
5.1. We may provide links
on our site to the websites
of other companies, whether
affiliated with us or not.
We cannot give any undertaking,
that products you purchase
from third party sellers through
our site, or from companies
to whose website we have provided
a link on our site, will be
of satisfactory quality, and
any such warranties are DISCLAIMED
by us absolutely. This DISCLAIMER
does not affect your statutory
rights against the third party
seller. We will notify you
when a third party is involved
in a transaction, and we may
disclose your customer information
related to that transaction
to the third party seller.
6.
Consumer Rights
6.1. If you are contracting
as a consumer, you may cancel
a Contract at any time within
7 working days, beginning
the day after you receive
the CDs.
6.2.
In this case you will receive
a full refund of the price
paid for the CDs in accordance
with our refunds policy (set
out in Condition 10 below).
6.3.
To cancel a Contract you must
inform us in writing. You
must also return the CDs to
us immediately, in the same
condition in which you received
them, and at your own cost
and risk.
6.4.
You have a legal obligation
to take reasonable care of
the CDs whilst they are in
your possession and if you
fail to comply with this obligation,
we may have a right of action
of you for compensation.
6.5.
You will not have any right
to cancel a Contract for the
supply of any of the CDs if
the tamper-proof seal on them
has been broken.
6.6.
Neither this provision nor
any other provision of the
Contract will otherwise affect
your statutory rights in relation
to the CDs subject to your
understanding that any CDs
you order from us will be
pre-played CDs although we
warrant that they will be
in perfect playing condition.
Please see our Returns Policy
for imperfect CDs.
7.
Availability and Delivery
Your order will be fulfilled
by the delivery date set out
in the Dispatch Confirmation
or, if no delivery date is
specified, then within a reasonable
time of the date of the Dispatch
Confirmation, unless there
are exceptional circumstances.
8.
Risk and Title
8.1. The CDs will be at your
risk from the time of delivery
but ownership of the CDs will
only pass to you when we receive
full payment of all sums due
in respect of the CDs, including
delivery charges.
9.
Price and Payment
9.1. The price of any CDs
will be as quoted on our site
from time to time, except
in cases of obvious error.
9.2.
These prices include VAT but
exclude delivery costs, which
are detailed on the website.
9.3.
Prices are liable to change
at any time, but changes will
not affect orders in respect
of which we have already sent
you a Dispatch Confirmation.
9.4.
Our site contains a large
number of CDs and it is always
possible that, despite our
best efforts, some of the
CDs listed on our site may
be incorrectly priced. We
will normally verify prices
as part of our dispatch procedures
so that, where a CD's correct
price is less than our stated
price, we will charge the
lower amount when dispatching
the CD to you. If a CD´s
correct price is higher than
the price stated on our site,
we will normally, at our discretion,
either contact you for instructions
before dispatching the CD,
or reject your order and notify
you of such rejection.
9.5.
We are under no obligation
to provide the CD to you at
the incorrect (lower) price,
even after we have sent you
a Dispatch Confirmation, if
the pricing error is obvious
and unmistakeable and could
have reasonably been recognised
by you as a mis-pricing.
9.6.
Payment for all CDs must be
by credit or debit card. We
accept payment with most major
types of credit card except
American Express at this time.
We will not charge your credit
or debit card until we despatch
your order.
10.
Our Refunds Policy
10.1. When you return a CD
to us because you have cancelled
the Contract between us within
the 7 day cooling off period,
set out in Condition 6, we
will process the refund due
to you as soon as possible
and, in any case, within 30
days of the day you have given
notice of your cancellation
(subject always to us having
received the CD back from
you). In this case, we will
refund the price of the CD
in full, including the cost
of sending the CD to you.
However, you will be responsible
for the cost of returning
the item to us.
10.2.
When you return a CD to us
because you claim that the
CD is defective, we will examine
the returned CD with our state
of the art equipment and will
notify you of your refund
via e-mail within a reasonable
period of time.
10.3.
When you return a CD to us
because you claim that the
CD has been damaged in transit,
you should also return the
packaging in which it was
delivered, together with any
notification of damage which
you may have received from
the postal service who delivered
it. We will examine the CD
to assure ourselves that we
believe the damage which it
may have sustained is consistent
with the sort of damage which
could occur during transit,
and will notify you of your
refund by e-mail within a
reasonable period of time.
10.4.
If we agree that the CD is
defective, under Condition
10.2 or 10.3, we will usually
process the refund due to
you as soon as possible and,
in any case, within 7 days
of the day we confirmed to
you via e-mail that you are
entitled to a refund for the
defective CD.
10.5.
CDs returned by you because
of an agreed defect will be
refunded in full, including
a refund of any delivery charges
for sending the item to you
and the cost incurred by you
in returning the item to us
(if made known to us).
10.6.
If we do not agree that the
CD is defective, we will nevertheless
provide you with a refund
but will retain from that
refund a charge to cover the
time and expense of examining
the CD and of communicating
our findings with you and
providing you with the refund.
10.7.
In both cases, any refunds
to you will usually be made
using the same method originally
used by you to pay for your
purchase.
11.
Our Liability
11.1. We warrant to you that
any CD purchased from us through
our site is of satisfactory
quality and reasonably fit
for all the purposes for which
products of the kind are commonly
supplied.
11.2.
Our liability for losses you
suffer as a result of us breaking
this agreement is strictly
limited to the purchase price
of the CD you purchased and
any losses which are a foreseeable
consequence of us breaking
the agreement. Losses are
foreseeable where they could
be contemplated by you and
us at the time your order
is accepted by us.
11.3.
This does not include or limit
in any way our liability:
(a) For death or personal
injury caused by our negligence;
(b) Under section 2(3) of
the Consumer Protection Act
1987;
(c) For fraud or fraudulent
misrepresentation; or
(d) For any matter for which
it would be illegal for us
to exclude, or attempt to
exclude, our liability.
11.4.
We are not responsible for
indirect losses which happen
as a side effect of the main
loss or damage and which are
not foreseeable by you and
us (such as loss of income
or revenue, loss of business,
loss of profits or contracts,
loss of anticipated savings,
loss of data, waste of management
or office time) however arising
and whether caused by tort
(including negligence), breach
of contract or otherwise,
even if foreseeable.
12.
Written Communications
Applicable laws require that
some of the information or
communications we send to
you should be in writing.
When using our site, you accept
that communication with us
will be mainly electronic.
We will contact you by e-mail
or provide you with information
by posting notices on our
website. For contractual purposes,
you agree to this electronic
means of communication and
you acknowledge that all contracts,
notices, information and other
communications that we provide
to you electronically comply
with any legal requirement
that such communications be
in writing. This condition
does not affect your statutory
rights.
13.
Notices
All notices given by you to
us must be given to Customer
Services at enquiries@musicmagpie.co.uk
or at the address set out
in Condition 1. We may give
notice to you at either the
e-mail or postal address you
provide to us when placing
an order, or in any of the
ways specified in this Condition
13. Notice will be deemed
received and properly served
immediately when posted on
our website, 24 hours after
an e-mail is sent, or three
days after the date of posting
of any letter. In proving
the service of any notice,
it will be sufficient to prove,
in the case of a letter, that
such letter was properly addressed,
stamped and placed in the
post and, in the case of an
e-mail, that such e-mail was
sent to the specified e-mail
address of the addressee.
14.
Transfer of Rights and Obligations
14.1. The contract between
you and us is binding on you
and us and on our respective
successors and assigns.

You may not transfer, assign,
charge or otherwise dispose
of a Contract, or any of your
rights or obligations arising
under it, without our prior
written consent.
14.3.
We may transfer, assign, charge,
sub-contract or otherwise
dispose of a Contract, or
any of our rights or obligations
arising under it, at any time
during the term of the Contract.
15.
Events Outside our Control
15.1. We will not be liable
or responsible for any failure
to perform, or delay in performance
of, any of our obligations
under a Contract that is caused
by events outside our reasonable
control (“a Force Majeure
Event”).
15.2.
A Force Majeure Event includes
any act, event, non-happening,
omission or accident beyond
our reasonable control and
includes in particular (without
limitation) the following:
(a) Strikes, lock-outs or
other industrial action.
(b) Civil commotion, riot,
invasion, terrorist attack
or threat of terrorist attack,
war (whether declared or not)
or threat or preparation for
war.

epidemic or other natural
disaster.

of railways, shipping, aircraft,
motor transport or other means
of public or private transport.
(e) Impossibility of the use
of public or private telecommunications
networks.
(f) The acts, decrees, legislation,
regulations or restrictions
of any government.
15.3.
Our performance under any
Contract is deemed to be suspended
for the period that the Force
Majeure Event continues, and
we will have an extension
of time for performance for
the duration of that period.
We will use our reasonable
endeavours to bring the Force
Majeure Event to a close or
to find a solution by which
our obligations under the
Contract may be performed
despite the Force Majeure
Event.
16.
Waiver
16.1. If we fail, at any time
during the term of a Contract,
to insist upon strict performance
of any of your obligations
under the Contract or any
of these terms and conditions,
or if we fail to exercise
any of the rights or remedies
to which we are entitled under
the Contract, this shall not
constitute a waiver of such
rights or remedies and shall
not relieve you from compliance
with such obligations.
16.2.
A waiver by us of any default
shall not constitute a waiver
of any subsequent default.
16.3.
No waiver by us of any of
these terms and conditions
shall be effective unless
it is expressly stated to
be a waiver and is communicated
to you in writing in accordance
with Condition 13 above.
17.
Severability
If any of these terms and
conditions or any provisions
of a Contract are determined
by any competent authority
to be invalid, unlawful or
unenforceable to any extent,
such term, condition or provision
will to that extent be severed
from the remaining terms,
conditions and provisions
which will continue to be
valid to the fullest extent
permitted by law.
18.
Entire Agreement
18.1. These terms and conditions
and any document expressly
referred to in them represent
the entire agreement between
us in relation to the subject
matter of any Contract and
supersede any prior agreement,
understanding or arrangement
between us, whether oral or
in writing.
18.2.
We each acknowledge that,
in entering into a Contract,
neither of us has relied on
any representation, undertaking
or promise given by the other
or be implied from anything
said or written in negotiations
between us prior to such Contract
except as expressly stated
in these terms and conditions.
18.3.
We intend to rely upon these
terms and conditions and any
document expressly referred
to in them in relation to
the subject matter of any
Contract. While we accept
responsibility for statements
and representations made by
our duly authorised agents,
please make sure you ask for
any variations from these
terms and conditions to be
confirmed in writing.
19.
Our Right to Vary these Terms
and Conditions
19.1. We have the right to
revise and amend these terms
and conditions from time to
time to reflect changes in
market conditions affecting
our business, changes in technology,
changes in payment methods,
changes in relevant laws and
regulatory requirements and
changes in our system's capabilities.
19.2.
You will be subject to the
policies and terms and conditions
in force at the time that
you order products from us,
unless any change to those
policies or these terms and
conditions is required to
be made by law or governmental
authority (in which case it
will apply to orders previously
placed by you), or if we notify
you of the change to those
policies or these terms and
conditions before we send
you the Dispatch Confirmation
(in which case we have the
right to assume that you have
accepted the change to the
terms and conditions, unless
you notify us to the contrary
within seven working days
of receipt by you of the CDs).
