2.2 Payments for Products reserved via Reserve and Collect will be taken when you collect the Products from our store.  Please see clause 11 below for further information on payment.

2.3 Reservations can only be commenced and finalised between one (1) month and twenty four (24) hours prior to the date and time of your departure. Reservations made any sooner or later than this will not be accepted by us. Products that cannot be reserved due to timing restrictions can still be added to a Wish List for future viewing.

2.4 After you make a reservation via Reserve and Collect, you will receive an email (“Confirmation Email”) from us acknowledging that we have received your request and we will assign you a reservation number. Please quote your reservation number in all subsequent correspondence with us relating to your reservation. Please note that the Confirmation Email is confirmation of your reservation only and does not mean it has been accepted. Our acceptance of your reservation will take place as described in clause 2.6.

2.5 Within seven (7) days of receiving your Confirmation Email, you should receive a separate email from us (“Reservation Email”); notify you whether or not the Products you have reserved are available and if they have been reserved for you.

If you are collecting products from a store on a P&O Ferry, you will be asked to provide the time, date and the name of the departure ship. Please take particular care to ensure this information is accurate as we will use it to determine your collection date and time. If, after placing your reservation request and before receiving your Reservation Email, you realise that you have provided us with any incorrect information or you wish to amend your reservation, you can do so via the Website by logging into your account (if a password has been previously set up by you when placing the order).

2.10 We reserve the right to cancel your reservation in whole or in part for any reason at any time.  Where we cancel any reservation, we will try to notify you of this.
