Terms & Conditions / Shipping
Thank you for purchasing from Ian Murray Photography. My aim is to provide high-quality photographic prints and digital products and to make the ordering process as straightforward as possible.
Please read the following information before placing an order.
PRINT ORDERS
Photographic prints are produced to order. Once your order has been placed and payment completed, the print is ordered from my professional print supplier.
Photographic prints are supplied unframed, giving you the freedom to choose a frame that suits your space. Smaller sizes are carefully packed flat; larger sizes are rolled in a protective tube.
Prints are sent to Ian Murray Photography first so that they can be inspected for quality before being carefully packaged and sent on to you.
Please check that you have selected the correct photograph and print size before completing your purchase.
COLOUR & APPEARANCE
Every effort is made to display photographs accurately on this website.
However, screens and devices display colour, brightness and contrast differently. The finished photographic print may therefore vary slightly from the image as it appears on your screen.
These normal differences between screen display and printed output are not considered faults.
SHIPPING & DELIVERY
Standard postage and packaging are included in the print price, with no additional delivery charge.
As prints are produced to order and inspected before being sent to you, please allow approximately 5–10 working days for production, inspection and dispatch.
Orders placed over weekends or Bank Holidays may take a little longer.
Once dispatched, delivery times depend on the postal service and destination.
If your order appears to be significantly delayed, please contact me at [email protected].
CANCELLATIONS & RETURNS
I hope you will be completely happy with your purchase.
For eligible goods purchased online, you have the right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving it without giving a reason.
If you wish to cancel and return an eligible print, please contact me at [email protected] within 14 days of receiving your order.
After notifying me that you wish to cancel, the item should be returned within 14 days. Unless the item is faulty, damaged or incorrectly supplied, you are responsible for the cost of returning it.
Returned prints should be kept in good condition and packaged carefully to prevent damage in transit.
Where a cancellation right applies, refunds will be made in accordance with your statutory rights, including the applicable standard delivery charge.
Personalised or custom-made products may not have the same cancellation rights where an exemption provided by consumer law applies.
Please note that choosing the wrong photograph or print size does not remove any statutory cancellation rights that apply to your purchase.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions affects your statutory rights.
DAMAGED, FAULTY OR INCORRECT ORDERS
Every print is inspected before dispatch. However, if your order arrives damaged, is faulty, or you receive the wrong item, please contact me as soon as possible at:
Please include your order details and, where possible, photographs showing the problem or damage. This will help me resolve the issue quickly.
Where goods are faulty, damaged or not as described, your statutory consumer rights apply.
