Orders and Cancellations
Our Contract

Delivery Dates
As a part of the checkout process on this website, you will be able to select the date for delivery of your first order, whether that delivery is part of a subscription or a one-off order. You will also be able to select the frequency of recurrence (in the case of a subscription). We will make every effort to satisfy your selection, but this cannot be guaranteed.
Changes to your order
If you wish to alter your order or subscription, please contact sarah@sarahbave.com. We'll always do our best to make last-minute changes for you, but we can only guarantee changes (including the delivery address and gift card message) no later than 36 business hours prior to your order going out.
Your cancellation rights
You can cancel single orders not later than 36 business hours prior to the requested delivery date. In those circumstances, a full refund will be given.

We cannot accept cancellations for Next Day or Same Day orders.
Payment Methods
In order to offer the best security, all our payments are processed securely by PayPal payments.
For all subscriptions, your credit or debit card will be billed at checkout for your first delivery only unless you choose to pre-pay the full subscription total in advance. For subsequent deliveries, you will be billed on a recurring basis every week during which a delivery is scheduled. The amount your card will be billed in any given week will be the value of your order(s) for the given week subject to any changes previously notified to you as above.

Delivery Charges and VAT
All prices include VAT at the current rate unless otherwise stated.
Standard delivery will include a charge of £15.

We reserve the right to restrict deliveries in certain areas, and this includes the right to eliminate certain areas from our delivery schedule altogether.

We take special care to endeavour that deliveries are made within your nominated delivery day and accordingly, it is your responsibility to ensure that an appropriate person is available at the delivery address at all times during the delivery slot. We may ask that an appropriate person signs for the goods on delivery. For London deliveries, if no one is at the address when the delivery is attempted, we will either leave the goods with a neighbour or in a safe place. If these options are not available, the order will be brought back to our warehouse and our Customer Service team will contact you to rearrange the delivery. For national deliveries, if no one is at the address when the delivery is attempted, the goods will either be taken to a local collection point or reattempted the following business day.

If that is the case we will endeavour to contact you as soon as we are able to in order to reschedule your delivery date. In any event, our liability to you will be limited to the price of goods not delivered and the cost of delivery.
Should you fail to be present for your delivery, we are entitled to charge you in full for an amount equal to the price of perishable items contained in your order and the cost of delivery.
OUR REFUNDS AND RETURNS POLICY
We aim please our customers by delivering fresh flowers, in great condition, on time.
Freshness and Damage
Our flower orders will often be sent out in bud form meaning they will last longer with the recipient. While our flowers are packed carefully to ensure they arrive as fresh and beautiful as when they left us, on occasions (and for reasons beyond our control) they may be damaged in transit. If you receive flowers that do not seem fresh or are damaged, please contact Sarah@SarahBave.com to let us know.
If the flowers do not meet our own high standards, we will give you the choice of a free replacement at our next available delivery date, or a refund. Please note that you will need to email us a photo of the poor quality or damaged flowers within 72 hours of receipt in order to be eligible for a refund or replacement. If we offer you a refund, we will refund you the full amount within 3 business days. Please note that banks might take an additional 3-5 days to refund the amount to your card.
This is without prejudice to your statutory rights in respect of damaged, defective or incorrectly supplied goods.
If you have ordered accessories from us and you are not happy about the condition in which they have been delivered to you, please contact our Customer Service team at sarah@sarahbave.com so that we can help you.
Non Delivery
While we take all appropriate steps to make sure our flowers are delivered, sometimes mistakes occur. If we fail to deliver your order (i.e. if your flowers have not arrived on their intended delivery date) we will either send you a free replacement on our next available delivery date, or we will refund you the full price of your order within 3 days. Please note that banks might take an additional 3-5 days to refund the amount on your card.
