Ex-display/clearance stock

Ex-display/clearance stock is sold-as-seen and is non-returnable. There is no warranty or aftersales service available on Ex-display/clearance stock. As some items are for display purposes only and sold as seen, they do not come with standard fittings and will require the customer to purchase these items at an additional cost. Ex-display items, whilst always in good condition, might show some signs of wear and tear from use in our showrooms. These might include small marks, scratches, or other small blemishes. It is the buyer’s responsibility to remove these items from our showroom.
