If you do not wish for an alternative product, we will cancel the order and any pending transaction promptly, please be aware that funds may take several days to reallocate in your account. 
Some items have very limited availability, very occasionally we may need to limit the amount supplied per customer to try to ensure that as many customers as possible can gain access to them.

CANCELLATION

Any non-personalised cancelled items must be returned to us in resaleable condition, unused and complete with original packaging. When returning, please protect product packaging by using additional outer packaging to return. 
We regret that we are unable to cancel orders for personalised items if the personalisation process has begun.

If you are purchasing a Pre-order Item, we will process a pre-authorisation when the order is first placed but ask that you ensure you have adequate funds in your account at the time of dispatch. Pre-order dates are provisional and we cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred for your time, or services paid for if there are delays or non-supply of product.

PERSONALISED ITEMS, USER UPLOADED CONTENT AND CUSTOMISATION REQUESTS 
Generally: If you are purchasing a personalised item, we will process a pre-authorisation and collect payment when the order is first place. The payment will be taken before the item is sent for personalisation not immediately before dispatch. 
Once an order containing personalised items has begun the personalisation process it cannot be changed or cancelled. All personalised items cannot be returned unless an item has a genuine manufacturer’s fault.  
ProKit UK reserve the right to utilise our knowledge and expertise in positioning, sizing and the method of personalisation and customisation. Any images shown on our site indicate only a rough guide as to how the finished item will appear.
By placing your order for personalised or customised items you agree that ProKit UK will use the guidelines provided by you during the order placing process to determine an appropriate and suitable way to personalise or customise your order and you agree to accept the decisions made ProKit UK make when using the guidelines provided by you. 

Teamwear and garment personalisation:
Crests and Sponsor Logos will always be produced to industry standard size and placed in the most suitable place on the garment in the area you have suggested. We cannot cover manufacturer logos. If you have elected to add customisation to an area already populated by a manufacturer or brand logo your customisation will be placed in the area you have indicated as appropriate to also ensure that the manufacturer or brand logo is also still visible. 
In some rare cases ProKit UK may choose to send a sample for you to sign off before personalising or customising your order. This will not happen on all orders as our experts are usually certain of the best placement and method to use and will always follow industry standards where possible. If a sample is sent to you the processing times and expected fulfilment times will be impacted while your confirmation is awaited. Once a sample has been approved by you it cannot be amended further as production will commence upon receipt of your approval. 

User Uploaded Content: 
If you upload images to our website to be used when personalising or customising a team wear order you must provide the highest resolution file that you are able to supply. If the image is not of sufficient quality, we may not be able to accept your order and we will contact you to obtain a better quality image or alternatively offer a  ‘re-drawing’ service for a fee of £25 to make your image usable.  
You must have the right to use any images that you upload in the way that you intend for them to be used. You must also have the right for us to use the images in the way that you request for us to use them. By uploading images to our site you are informing us that you have the right for the images to be used by you and by us. You must not upload any images where you do not have the right to do so and you will be liable for the consequences of any copyright infringement. By uploading images to our site you agree that you have ensured that your intended use of that image does not: 
• Infringe anyone’s copyright – you are either the copyright owner or the copyright owner has granted you permission to use the image on your item 
• Infringe upon anyone’s privacy or data protection rights – any people used in images or whose data is used in any part of your customised kit should have fully consented for this to take place and you should obtain written approval that such consent has been provided. ProKit UK will not be held liable if you have failed to do so

CLAIMS FOR NON ARRIVAL OF ORDER/RETURN
You will be provided a with delivery date estimation during checkout. Please note that any dates shown are estimates only and do not constitute guarantees. You may need to allow extra time for your order to arrive if it has not arrived before the estimated delivery date. 


ProKit UK uses reputable and reliable carriers who will allow you to track your order so you will be able to follow its progress and see when delivery is likely to take place. Details of how to track your order will be sent to you by e-mail when your order is passed to the carrier. 


Please note that if you select a ‘Standard’ delivery service your parcel will be sent through the postal network and in the UK claims for non-arrival of orders will not be investigated until 25 days have elapsed since the parcel was dispatched. 


Valid claims of non-receipt are extremely rare and we will always make sure that we do the right thing to minimise any inconvenience caused by any delays in transit. You should contact our customer service team as early as possible if you have any concerns about your delivery.


Any shortages from the shipping notification you received and the parcel that has been delivered, must be notified within 48 hours of receipt of the parcel, otherwise we may be unable to process your claim for items missing.


If our carrier has scanned your parcel as delivered to you but you have not received it, or if your return is showing as scanned delivered to us but we have not yet processed it, please contact our customer service team. You will be required to allow us 10 business days from our acknowledgement of your claim to investigate all such claims. You will also need to fully co-operate in the investigation and provide us with all documentation that we request during the process. Failure to do so will result in a failed claim.
Regrettably online retailers are often targeted by criminals engaging in fraudulent activities and theft which focus on bogus claims of non-receipt of delivery or return (e.g. theft made through so called ‘SE” or “Social Engineering’ techniques, DNA/LIT/MI scams, fraudulent EB/PEB claims, FTID returns and digitally altered POPs). Crimes of this nature are very damaging to retailers and genuine consumers alike.
ProKit UK is acutely aware of the techniques employed by these criminals and as a result our investigation process is very thorough. As part of the process you may be required to provide some or all of the following:
•A signed and witnessed declaration indicating that you have not received your items in spite of the carrier’s indication that they have safely delivered it
•Proof of address
•A police report detailing the fact that your order was stolen from your property
•A face to face meeting with the carrier who delivered your parcel
•In the case of a return - proof of postage that will be passed to the carrier for verification that it has not been altered
•In the case of a return – an affidavit indicating that the items being claimed as returned were legitimately returned by you and that no evidence supplied by you has been fabricated or digitally altered (if you are in the UK and the retail value of your return is over £250 or you are not in the UK, you will be required to arrange your own carrier and will be liable for ensuring that it has the relevant tracking/insurance in the event that we do not successfully receive your returned items so your claim would be with your carrier of choice and not ProKit UK so you will need to satisfy their requirements for investigation of your claim)
No claims of “non-delivery” or returns claims will be exempt from investigation. Investigations will be executed as swiftly as possible; however, 10 working days is required to allow the retrieval/review of CCTV footage (from our own warehouse, local Post Offices, carrier depots and delivery driver dash cams/PDAs etc) and the completion/review of all relevant documentation.
Where the investigation concludes that an attempt to defraud the company has taken place, it is ProKit UK's policy to refer such cases for prosecution and all evidence collected will then be passed to the relevant authorities. We operate a zero tolerance to such criminal activity and are committed to protecting ourselves, our fellow online retailers and our customers from the increased costs that are associated with becoming a victim of these crimes

RETURNS POLICY
All goods supplied by ProKit UK are from official sources and covered by the normal manufacturer's warranty. You can return any item within 14 days of receipt for a refund or to exchange the same item for an alternative size, but the items returned must be in their original condition, which includes any packaging. For example, shoes are to be returned along with the original shoe box, any tags attached and in new condition, (not used outside or on an abrasive surface). 

Personalised items - Regrettably, we cannot accept a returned item that has been personalised unless it is a fault of the manufacturer. 

Teamwear Items - If you have ordered Teamwear items from ourselves, please note, there is a 25% re-stocking charge for returning or exchanging unprinted and unpersonalised garments. This is enforced by the manufacturers/suppliers and is at the discretion of ProKit UK. If you have ordered Club Shop items with a school or club badge unfortunately these are not eligible for return or exchange as they have been personalised.

If you believe that you have received a faulty product or there has been an error when personalising your item, please contact our customer service team who will be happy to help.
