Terms and Conditions


Acceptance of order - our contract

When you place an order on our website, you will view an order confirmation page and receive an order confirmation email from Grand Prix Legends. This page and email confirm receipt of your order and its details, they do not form a contract to a sale at this point. Your order represents an offer to us to purchase a product/products, which is accepted by us at the point when we debit your card and despatch the goods to you.

Authorising orders

When you place an order on our website please make sure that your Account address is the address your credit/debit card is registered to. Your card authorisation process is checked against your Account address and if it is not correct your card will be declined and your order delayed until we receive the correct details from you. To prevent fraud, delivery to an alternative address is possible on 1st orders but delays may occur while extra security checks are carried out. We reserve the right to only send first orders to the registered payment card address. To help combat fraud we may select your order for further fraud screening. This may involve making a small charge to your card and then asking you the card holder to tell us how much that charge was for in order to prove that you have full control over the account. The amount taken will be deducted from your order total ensuring you will never pay any more.

Sizing

Please click here to view our Size guide. Please note measurements are approximate and vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.

Videos and DVDs

The VHS videotapes we sell are aimed at the UK market, and have been recorded in PAL format (Phase Alternation Line). This means that the tape will not be compatible with either NTSC, or SECAM players. Please check carefully with your VHS guide to ensure that it is capable of playing PAL format videotape, before making a purchase.

The DVDs we sell are primarily created using the PAL formatting system, and are region code free (also known as region 0). However, a selection of our DVDs are made from footage that was recorded using the NTSC formatting system, or have been given a specific region code. If you are purchasing a DVD that has been recorded using the PAL formatting system, you will experience a loss of picture quality if you play it on an NTSC machine, and vice-versa. If you purchase a DVD that has been given a Region Code of 2, then it will not work at all on a machine outside of that Region. You should find the information regarding the technical aspects of a specific disc within the copy of that product.

For your assistance, please refer to the chart below for an explanation of which region code you fall into. Please check carefully to ensure that the DVD you are interested in is compatible with your player, before making a purchase. If you are unsure of the region codes of any of our discs, please email technical@grandprixlegends.com and we will be pleased to assist.

Credit Card Chargebacks

 

When you contact your credit card company to report a transaction as unknown or not authorised – this is known as a “chargeback”.

The name that will appear on your statement for any credit card transaction made with us will be Grand Prix Legends.  It is very important you do not contact your credit card company and report this transaction as unknown to you if the order has been delivered and signed for.  If you feel there is a problem with your order you must contact us in writing (letter or email) to resolve the problem.  Cancelling the transaction with your credit card company will be considered theft or fraud and your details will be passed to the relevant authority for further investigation.  This may result in us making a claim against you and could damage your credit rating.

If a transaction is charged back to you and proof of delivery is available, we reserve the right to either:

A) Re-charge the credit card you used to make the payment for the full amount, plus an additional £30 to cover our administration costs.

Or

B) Issue a claim via the appropriate legal service – This may affect your credit rating and leave CCJ’s against you.

If you request a chargeback after a refund has been issued, you will be liable for a charge of £30 to cover our administration costs and any charges made to us.  Credit card protection regulations ensure your account is automatically credited when a chargeback is issued,  If a refund has already been made, a further chargeback will be considered theft or fraud and appropriate legal action may be taken against you.
