  1. Purchases

The prices for goods displayed for sale on the Site are as set out on the Site and are inclusive of VAT and Duty at rates valid as of time of purchase. Where additional charges are made for delivery, they are clearly displayed. Each item is priced per unit.

By completing and submitting the electronic order form on the site you are making an offer to purchase goods which, if accepted by us, will result in a binding contract.

Your card will not be charged until the offer to purchase has been accepted by Little Italy and the goods have been dispatched by us or 3rd parties acting on under our instruction.

We only accept payment for the alcohol by credit card and cannot accept cash on delivery.

We will confirm acceptance of your order by email, stating that the goods ordered have been dispatched. This confirmation will be sent to the email address you provide on your order details. Whether or not you receive an email, our acceptance of your order will create a legally binding contract between us. We reserve the right not to supply you at our discretion.

A note that it is up to the user to input all relevant information correctly onto the website including name, email, contact number, address and postal district. At times Little Italy may run geographical offers based on address. If an address is entered incorrectly by the customer and an offer is applied, that offer then becomes void.
