Where customers have requested and paid for a specified delivery time, and this has not been met, only the additional delivery charge will be refunded not the full amount.

Whilst every reasonable effort shall be made to keep any delivery date, time of delivery shall not be of the essence.

Time Limitations for Notification of claims Damaged in Transit

As internal damage cannot always be identified on delivery, the Customer must sign the drivers manifest as "unchecked". Should any damage be identified on opening the package, GrahamDykePhotography must be advised within 48 hours of the exact damage. It is imperative that the Customer does not dispose of any of the packaging, as this will be required to affect a claim against the carrier. The claim will be handled by GrahamDykePhotography , replacement(s) will be sent, but we would need the damaged goods complete with original packaging returned to ourselves first. We cannot accept any claims for damage if the above time scales are not followed.

Should there be any extenuating circumstances that have prohibited the Customer to remain within the specified time frame; resolution will be by mutual decision.
