You will be asked to expressly agree to these terms of sale before you place an order for products from our website.
This is a Business to Business (B2B) website and in these terms of sale, “we” means The Coventry Office Furniture Warehouse Ltd (and “us” and “our” will be construed accordingly); and “you” means our customer or potential customer for products (and “your” will be construed accordingly).
The advertising of products on our website constitutes an “invitation to treat”; and your order for products constitutes a contractual offer. No contract will come into force between you and us unless and until we accept your order in accordance with the procedure detailed below.
In order to enter into a contract to purchase products from us, you will need to take the following steps:We will not file a copy of these terms of sale specifically in relation to your order. We may update the version of these terms of sale on the website from time to time, and we do not guarantee that the version you have agreed to will remain accessible. We therefore recommend that you download, print and retain a copy of these terms of sale for your records.
The only language in which we provide these terms of sale is English.
Before you place your order, you will have the opportunity of identifying whether you have made any input errors by viewing the total order breakdown details prior to checkout. You may correct any input errors before placing your order by amending the content of your shopping trolley before final checkout.

Prices for products are quoted on our website. The website contains a large number of products and it is always possible that some of the prices on the website may be incorrect. We will verify prices as part of our sale procedures so that a product's correct price will be stated when you pay for the product.
In addition to the price of the products, you may have to pay a delivery charge, which will be as stated when you pay for the product.
Payment must usually be made upon the submission of your order. We may withhold the products and/or cancel the contract between us if the price is not received from you in full in cleared funds.
From time to time we may agree to open a customer account for you, enabling you to pay in arrears. Where you hold a customer account, then upon or following the dispatch of products, we will send to you an invoice for payment of the price of those products, and you will pay such invoice within 30 days of the date of the invoice. Accounts will be subject to such credit limits as we may notify to you from time to time. Payment for authorised account holders can be made by Credit Card, Debit Card, Purchasing Card, Cheque, or by Direct Bank Transfer (BACS)
If you do not pay any amount properly due to us under or in connection with these terms of sale on time, we may: charge you interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 8% per year above the base rate of HSBC Bank Plc from time to time (which interest will accrue daily until the date of actual payment, be compounded quarterly, and be payable on demand); or claim interest and statutory compensation from you pursuant to the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.
The prices on the website exclude all value added taxes at the current rate (where applicable).
Payment for all products, by non account holders, must be made by Credit or Debit Card or any method detailed on the website from time to time.
Prices for products are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect contracts which have come into force.
We will arrange for the products to be delivered to the address for delivery indicated in your order.
The order will be delivered during normal office hours (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm) excluding public holidays and weekends.
Delivery times listed on our website are approximate and some made to order products may take longer. We will give you the manufacturers estimated delivery date when you place your order for made to order products, although the date cannot be guaranteed as delays inevitably occur during the manufacturing process.
Delivery is to ground floor only (reception or goods inwards/loading bay) As a general rule, larger furniture items will be delivered on a pallet to kerbside only and you must make us aware of any unloading or parking restrictions that may apply when you place your order. Please contact us for a quotation should you require delivery to a location other than the ground floor.
On delivery before you sign to accept, please ensure the packaging is intact and in good condition. If the product or packaging is obviously damaged you must refuse delivery and mark the courier’s document ‘delivery rejected due to transit damage’. Please inform us immediately on 024 7666 4664 in that event.
Once you have accepted delivery of the product/s, you must unpack and inspect the goods within 48 hours of delivery. If there are missing or damaged items, please ensure that you inform us immediately by email or telephone on 024 7666 4664. If we do not hear from you within 48 hours you shall be deemed to have accepted the product/s in good condition and complete. Where a claim of damage or defect is made after delivery, our policy is to send replacement parts to rectify the problem.
Where a delivery and installation option has been requested or has been included within the purchase price, we will require details of the parking and access available, the unloading and access arrangements, together with any specific restrictions, prior to final acceptance of the order. Delivery and installation of any furniture must be to a clear unobstructed site with free unhindered access to loading bays and lifts. The site must be a safe working environment for our operatives with light and power freely available. Removal of any existing furniture and equipment prior to delivery is your responsibility. Should an agreed installation date and time be delayed by reasons outside of our control e.g. lift failure or delayed completion of other works, we reserve the right to make an additional charge to cover downtime and any further costs, such as overtime incurred as a result of any access delays.
We will use reasonable endeavours to deliver products on or before the date for delivery set out in our order confirmation or, if no date is set out in our order confirmation, within 2- 15 days of the date of our order confirmation. However, we cannot guarantee delivery by the relevant date. We do however guarantee that unless there are exceptional circumstances all deliveries of products will be dispatched within 30 days of the later of receipt of payment and the date of our order confirmation.
We will only deliver products within England, Scotland and Wales. (Deliveries to the West Country and the Highlands of Scotland may take longer to deliver than stated on our website)
