GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > GIFTSERVICE PRODUCTS
Every product which is offered through our website has been carefully selected. Every gift has been chosen for its quality nature and we hope that this high quality will be recognised and appreciated by both our customer and the recipient.
GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > POINT OF DISPATCH
Every gift is provided to the highest possible standard and quality. Many of our gifts are of a perishable nature. More perishable gifts are packed and delivered as quickly as possible. Every item is checked for quailty and condition before dispatch. We will not dispatch any gift which does not meet our quality requirements.

GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > PACKING AND PRESENTATION
Every gift order is correctly and expertly packed and presented in carefully chosen delivery boxes as appropriate. Some florists deliveries will not be boxed, some florist deliveries will not be packaged. These decisions are made by our team to ensure the best quality product arrives at the delivery address. See link below.
GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > SPEED OF DELIVERY
Most of our gifts are packaged and delivered within a period of less than 24 hours. Our florist deliveries are produced and very often delivered within a few hours. The speed of delivery helps to ensure that a good quality product always arrives at the delivery address.

BACK TO TOP

GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > SUCCESSFUL DELIVERY
When a gift is correctly received and signed for at the delivery address it can be opened and displayed in the correct manner for the gift concerned. This will ensure that the gift remains in the best possible condition as it left our dispatch department.
GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > PROBLEM DELIVERY
Where it has not been possible to make the delivery to the correct address or there has been a problem with the address details this will add to the delivery time and start to cause problems with the peak condition of some of our gifts.
This will mostly concern the delivery of fresh flowers through our UK postal flowers, our UK florist flowers or fish delivery services.
Every effort will be made to assist the recipient and to ensure that the gift is received. We are however often reliant on the ability and willingness of the recipient to collect their gift from the point of delivery.

BACK TO TOP

GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > POINT OF DELIVERY RESPONSIBILITY
Where a gift has been delivered to the correct point of delivery (ie. the nearest point our delivery person can go to the recipient) we may be unable to contact or influence the speed with which the recipient collects their gift.
Taken to extreme some recipients may show no intention of collecting their gift, especially from the local Royal Mail Sorting Office. We may be unable to influence this position and we must consider that our role in the delivery process has been completed when the first delivery has been attempted and the gift has been left at a suitable alternative location.
We will to the best of our ability notify the recipient and/or the customer according to prevailing circumstances.
We consider under these circumstances that it becomes our customers responsibility to assist us and further request the recipient to collect their gift which will, in the case of fresh produce, continue to deteriorate the longer it is left.
We give notice, as part of our terms & conditions, that we cannot accept any claim for poor quality or poor condition where there has been a delay in the recipient collecting their gift or they have completely failed to collect the gift.

BACK TO TOP

GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > POSTAL FLOWER DELIVERIES
We need to presume, as part of our terms & conditions, that when one of our postal floral gift is received at the recipients address, the recipient or their agent will do everything possible to ensure that the flowers are correctly cut and conditioned in fresh water as soon receipt as possible.
It is further important that the flowers are located in a suitable position at the recipients address or wherever the recipient wishes to keep and enjoy the flowers. Any flowers received will remain in their best condition giving best value and enjoyment in a neutral position which avoids any excesses of temperature, light and physical damage.
Although we consider the time the flowers have spent in their delivery box for transportation to be acceptable, they should not be left in this box any longer than is absolutely necessary after arriving at the delivery address.
We are not prepared to accept any complaint of poor quality for one of our postal deliveries where the basic ideas above have not reasonably been followed by the recipient.
GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > DAMAGED GOODS
Where the condition of the gift received has been influenced by the actions of the delivery process we should be informed immediately. Please see the link below to our section on damaged goods.
GIFT QUALITY & CONDITION > RETURN OF POOR QUALITY GOODS
We consider that it is very unlikely that anyone should need to return their gift as being of poor quality or poor condition.

Where a recipient feels that their gift having arrived on the correct day with no obvious delivery problems is of poor quality or condition we will be pleased to try to correct the situation.
We will require the recipient to return the gift to us and subject to our customers agreement we will expect to replace the gift for the recipient. The recipient would be fully reimbursed for the cost of returning the gift.
