Description of our products

We are dedicated to providing you with up-to-date and accurate product information so that you get a great sense and feel for our products.

Although we aim to keep the product information as up to date as possible, it may be the case that at the point that the order is placed, some element of the product information may not exactly reflect the details of the actual product:

  • The product packaging may vary from the product images on our website.
  • While we try to show the accurate colour of the product on our website, differences in computer screens and monitors may mean the actual colour of the product that you receive will differ slightly from how you see it on our website. NB - Colour swatches on the product details page are used as a guide to change product colours and do not represent the actual or implied colour of the products.
  • The stock position of the product as shown on the website is a guide only and the available stock position will only be confirmed at the point that the order is accepted.

In any circumstance where the actual product information varies from that displayed on our website, we reserve the right not to accept the order.

Our product pricing

Chief and Turtle is a multi-channel retailer and operates a best practice pricing strategy that attempts to ensure the consistency of pricing between all its sales channels.

However, it may be the case that a product or promotion that is available in one sales channel is not always available in all other sales channels. The full price of the order will include VAT plus any additional delivery costs where applicable.

The price of any products will be as quoted on the website at the time of your order, except in cases of obvious error.

Chief and Turtle is under no obligation to provide a product to you at an incorrect (lower) price, even after Chief and Turtle have sent you Order Confirmation if the pricing error is obvious and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.

Products in time-limited sales are limited quantities only. Sale discounts may not be combined with any other promotional offer or code. 

Purchasing our products

Placing an order on the Chief and Turtle website does not mean there is a contract between you and us. The order is only confirmed once we have notified you that the order has been invoiced and despatched.

For the avoidance of doubt, any such contract between you and Chief and Turtle will be deemed to have been concluded in the United Kingdom. Further, any such contract will be interpreted, construed and enforced in all respects in accordance with the laws of England, and you and Chief and Turtle irrevocably agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts.

The straightforward order process is as follows:

  • Products in our main warehouse are collected and sent for dispatch according to our delivery options.
  • Products we sell via a dropship partnership are processed by the dropship partner themselves and will be dispatched by them in the same time frame. 
  • Clicking on the 'Pay now' button in the payment screen of the checkout will submit the order for payment using your chosen payment provider.
  • Once you see the order confirmation page, you will then receive an email confirming the details of each product in your order. This is not a confirmation that the order has been accepted or processed but simply that you have finished the order process.
  • Once the goods are picked, packed and ready for dispatch, we will then process the payment and notify you with an email confirming that the order has been processed. A contract between you and us is in place at this point.

If for any reason, there is a problem in processing the order then we will notify you via email or telephone with the reason it could not be fulfilled. This could be for one of the following reasons:

  1. There was an error in how the product was described or priced on our website
  2. One of the products in the order is currently out of stock
  3. We are unable to take full payment for your order
  4. You did not fulfil your obligations as set out under these terms and conditions

Purchasing our products outside the UK

If you order Products from the Website for delivery outside the UK, they may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied when the delivery reaches the specified destination. You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that Chief and Turtle has no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Please contact your local customs office for further information before placing your order.

Please also note that you must comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the country for which the Products are destined. Chief and Turtle will not be liable for any breach by you of any such laws.

Returns and cancelling your order

Your order can be cancelled at any point until it is packaged at the Chief and Turtle warehouse. 

You can cancel your order by contacting our customer service team at hello@chiefandturtle.co.uk.

Please note that where all or part of an order/purchase containing a promotional discount is refunded or cancelled, the refund will be the total due less the discount given. Where all or part of an order/purchase containing a free item is refunded or cancelled, if the free item is not also returned then the refund will be the total due less the value of the free item.

Please note that when you agree to these website terms, you shall be deemed to have understood and agreed the details on our Delivery & Returns page.

Defective products

In accordance with your statutory rights, you may reject any Product which does not conform to the quality, standards or description shown or that you reasonably expected. This right of rejection is in addition to any other statutory rights you may have under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 or otherwise in relation to any Product after such period of time. All such rights are expressly not excluded.

While every effort has been made to portray items accurately, variations may occur. All measurements given are approximate and the reproduction of colours is as accurate as photographic and publishing processes will allow. There may be variations in colours depending on the settings of individual screens.

Methods of payment

We have a variety of payment methods for you to choose from from third party providers. Please see our Privacy Policy for information about how we manage your payment data. Payment methods are:

  • Paypal - Use of PayPal is subject to PayPal’s own terms and conditions and privacy policy
  • Apple pay
  • Google pay
  • Gift card - see below

All purchases are subject to the usual validation checks and authorisation procedures in place at your chosen payment provider. Any refusal by the payment provider to authorise the payment to us, for any reason, will not render Chief and Turtle liable for any delay or non-delivery.

Chief and Turtle gift vouchers

Chief and Turtle gift vouchers can be used as full or part payment on our UK website.
