To minimise the risk of any such claim we ask that you cover the Goods to protect from any damage, retain the original packing where applicable and use this when returning the Goods. 
8.4. No refunds or exchanges will be given on Custom Made Goods or Commercial Orders unless there is a manufacturing defect or the Goods are not as specified on the SOA.

8.5. No refunds or exchanges will be given on Clearance Goods.
8.6. Goods being exchanged will incur a collection/delivery charge, including in the event that (i) you collected the original Goods but require collection/delivery for the exchange in which case a delivery charge will apply; or (ii) you received free delivery for the original Goods in which case a delivery charge will apply for the exchange of Goods. Your original delivery charge will not be refunded. Delivery/collection charges will apply for subsequent returns and exchanges.
8.7. If you wish to add Goods to an existing Order then SilverAppleWood will use reasonable endeavours to fulfil your request. Such additional Goods are not subject to the same promotional offers as the original Goods unless the promotion is still active. Any excess payment due must be made prior to delivery of the additional Goods and extra delivery charges will not apply where:
a. the supply of such additional Goods can be included within a delivery for the original Order, whether scheduled or not, without causing any delay, complications or extra costs (at our own discretion). 
b. such additional Goods can be included within a collection or exchange visit for the original Order, whether scheduled or not, without causing any delay or complications or extra costs (at our own discretion). In this case any subsequent return or exchange of such additional Goods shall incur a collection charge.
8.8. If you wish to add Goods to an existing Order and, despite reasonable endeavours to fulfil your request, SilverAppleWood are unable to deliver the additional Goods within an existing/planned visit then the additional Goods will be treated as a new Order and a delivery charge may apply as normal.

8.10. Any refunds will be made as soon as reasonably possible after agreement by SilverAppleWood to make the refund and in any case within 30 days at the latest.

10.2. The guarantee applies to UK Mainland only.
10.3. We shall have no liability whatsoever in respect of this guarantee if any sum owing by you to us has not been paid.

10.5 Guarantee Exclusions:
a) Your Goods are guaranteed for normal domestic use, and not for commercial use.
b) Your Goods require some routine maintenance. Please take care to treat your furniture like the fine product it is. Proper care and use are essential to preserving your rights under this guarantee. We will not replace or repair your furniture if improper maintenance or improper use causes damage. This guarantee does not apply if your product is damaged by the use of detergents, abrasives or other harsh cleaning agents.
c) Wood has certain natural characteristics such as shrinkage, swelling, hairline cracks, minimal knots, and minor movement due to changes in temperature and humidity. These may appear and disappear with the changing weather conditions. This will not affect the durability, serviceability or lifespan of your furniture and normal movement within wood is completely normal. These natural movements are not a structural defect and are therefore not covered under this guarantee.
d) Fair wear and tear in normal domestic use is excluded. 
e) Keep indoor furniture out of direct sunlight. The ultraviolet rays of the sun can damage and fade wood – such damage is excluded.
f) The guarantee does not apply to Clearance Goods, Custom Made Goods and Commercial Orders.
