  1. About Us

The NFM Shop accessed via www.nationalfootballmuseum.com (“Site”) is operated by National Football Museum at Urbis (Trading) Limited (“NFMT” “We” or “Us”), a corporation registered in England with Company number 07539263, whose registered office and main trading address is at Urbis, Cathedral Gardens, Manchester, M4 3BG, UK.

  1. Your Status

By placing an order through the Site, you warrant that you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts with us.

  1. How the Contract is formed between You and 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 Product. All orders are subject to acceptance by us. The contract between us (“Contract”) will only be formed when we dispatch your items.

3.2 The Contract will relate only to those Products we dispatch to you. We will not be obliged to supply any other Products which may have been part of your order until those Products become available to us for dispatch.

  1. Consumer Rights

4.1 If you are contracting as a consumer, then subject to clause 4.3, you may cancel a Contract at any time within fourteen days, beginning on the day after you received the Products. In this case, and in accordance with our returns policy (set out in clause8 below) you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products, but you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Products to us.

4.2 To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. You must also return the Products to us immediately, in the same condition in which you received them, and at your own cost and risk. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the Products while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation.

4.3 You will not have any right to cancel a Contract for the supply of any Products:

  1. i) that have been custom made to suit your specifications;
  2. ii) which by reason of their nature cannot be returned; or

iii) which you purchased through our counter collection.

  1. Availability and Delivery

Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in our dispatch confirmation email or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of the date of such dispatch confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.

  1. Risk and Title

6.1 The Products will be at your risk from the time of delivery.

6.2 Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.

  1. Price and Payment

7.1 The price of any Products will be as quoted on the Site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error.

7.2 These prices include applicable VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due. For our current delivery charges to the UK, EU and internationally, please click here. If the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Products in full before the change in VAT takes place.

7.3 Please note that local Customs may charge duty and tax on the full value of your order. Should there be any customs charges for your order it will be your responsibility to pay these, and not the responsibility of NFMT or The National Football Museum.

7.4 Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already dispatched.

7.5 The Site contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on the Site may be incorrectly priced. Where a Product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on the Site, we will either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.

7.6 If the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as an error, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price.

7.7 Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card. We accept payment with Visa, Mastercard, Visa Delta, Switch and Maestro. Payment will be debited at time of order through Global Iris payment system.

  1. Our Returns Policy

8.1 Returns (quoting the order number we have given you) will be accepted in the following circumstances;

  1. a) for Products returned within the fourteen-day cooling-off period referred to in clause 4, 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. The Products must be returned as new and, where practicable, in their original packaging. In this case, we will refund the price of the Product in full but you will be responsible for the cost of returning the item to us and if you return it at our expense we are entitled to charge you such expense, which shall be a maximum of the charge payable by us to our courier;
  2. b) for defective products we will examine the returned Product. Products returned by you because of a defect not caused by you or your servant or agent will be refunded in full, including a refund of the delivery charges for sending the item to you and the cost incurred by you in returning the item to us. If, after examination, we find the returned Product to be defective due to a defect not caused by you or your servant or agent we will notify you in relation to your refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time. We will usually process any refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day we confirmed to you via e-mail that you were entitled to a refund for the defective Product.
