RETURNS POLICY

All faulty books can be returned for a full refund or replacement. Please write to orders@c-s-p.org in order to initiate a refund or replacement, quoting the invoice number with which your book arrived. We will refund the postage charged by us for sending you the book as well as £4.50 for you to send the book back to us. If you would like a replacement, we will still refund the postage amounts. You must contact us within 7 days of receipt to report a faulty book.

If the books are not faulty and you would like to return them, you may do so within 14 days for a  refund excluding both our postage and yours. A refund will be given only if the books are returned in a resellable condition. For orders of over £100, we will also charge an administrative fee of 10% unless we have a prior agreement with you.

The conditions for the return of non-faulty books do not apply if the books are intended for resale. Any agreement for the return of non-faulty books which are intended for resale must be obtained at the time of purchase. If there is no such agreement in place, it is assumed that the books are non-returnable and returns will only be accepted at our discretion.

Please send all returns to our physical address as specified in the Contact Us section of this website. 

POSTAGE

We have recently updated and simplified our postage charges. For larger quantities, please write to us, but our standard postage charges are per item and destination (for which we have only UK and Worldwide). These postage charges may change in the near future. 

All below prices are per book.

UK (first class): £4
Airmail (worldwide): £6

ORDER CANCELLATIONS

All orders can be cancelled prior to shipping. Please email orders@c-s-p.org with your purchase order number or transaction ID in the case of online orders. We only charge your credit card when we are about to ship, so an item can only be refunded after this time in accordance with our returns policies.

Claims for non-arrival of items can only be made when the method's expected length of time expires. The expected length of time is the upper limit of the time the carrier, courier or postal service has published at the time the order has gone out. This length of time can only be measured from the day the item is shipped. Any cancellations made before this time will not incur any charges.

All credit card charges will be made in Pound Sterling and the actual charge in other currencies may vary and will depend on individual card issuers\' exchange rates.

In such an event, The Customer may state in writing that they wish the cheque NOT to be cashed if the amount is not equal to the total, but must do so before the cheque is received by The Company. Returning parts of overpayments is at the sole discretion of The Company.

d. In the case of bank transfers, any bank charges incurred must be paid by The Customer.
