Buyer Protection terms valid from 11.02.2019.
This protection scheme is issued by PriceRunner Limited (Vat Reg No. GB760736227) ("PriceRunner"). The rights that apply according to law for consumers are not affected by this buyer protection scheme; instead the Buyer Protection is complementary to the registered members of PriceRunner.
The Buyer Protection applies to natural persons (“the Buyer”), who are resident in United Kingdom and have an active PriceRunner member account ("Member").
The Buyer Protection applies only to purchases from companies ("Approved Seller") that have a web link from PriceRunner marked with the text "Buyer Protection".
The Buyer Protection is valid from the time at which the Buyer purchases a product via an Approved Seller's website until the goods are delivered to the delivery address specified by the Buyer or to a delivery point. The Buyer Protection only applies to purchases from companies with their main office in the EEA. Purchases must be addressed to the Buyer.
The Buyer Protection only applies under the following condition:
The Buyer Protection covers the Buyer for damage to goods upon delivery, defective goods, where an individual product is missing on delivery, if the goods are incorrect or if the goods are not delivered.
The Buyer Protection applies for purchase amounts of a minimum of £10 and a maximum of £5,000 per customer, order and company.
In case of damage, indemnification will be paid if all of the following criteria are fulfilled:
According to the Consumer Contracts Regulations, the Buyer has the right to a redelivery, price reduction, repair, compensation to remedy the fault, or cancellation of the purchase.
The Buyer has made a written claim regarding the damage to the Approved Seller and requested the damage to be remedied.
The Buyer has been in contact with the Approved Seller in order to have the Approved Seller to remedy the damage.
The Approved Seller has not rectified the fault by means of redelivery, price reduction, repair, compensation to remedy the fault, or cancellation of the purchase within a period of 60 working days of the claim.
Failed delivery means that the goods have not been delivered within 60 working days after the agreement for the purchase of the goods was concluded provided that a longer delivery time was not stated during the purchase.
In case of damage during delivery, the Buyer must document the damage and make a claim related to the damage to the Approved Seller without delay and no later than five days from delivery.
Indemnification is only paid for purchase costs and shipping costs and only for the direct financial damage the Buyer has suffered. No indemnification is paid for any other direct or indirect costs, depreciation or loss of revenue.
The buyer protection does not apply if the right to indemnification exists on the basis of law, constitution, insurance, purchase protection, compensation for damage, contract or another guarantee.
The Buyer Protection does not cover minor damage such as scratches, colour differences and such. The buyer protection does not cover damage caused by batteries.
The guarantee does not apply in cases where the store that is covered by PriceRunner's Buyer Protection can verify that the goods have been delivered to the customer. This can be verified from information provided by the freight carrier or another form of documentation indicating proof of delivery.
The Buyer Protection does not apply if the Buyer has not contributed to making it possible for the Approved Seller to deliver the goods. This includes the goods being delivered to a delivery point or another location and the Buyer or a representative of the Buyer does not pick up the goods or the Buyer not being available to accept delivery in case of home delivery. This also includes the Buyer not paying the requisite payment, fees, taxes or customs duties according to the agreement or applicable law.
The following goods are excluded:
Indemnification will not be paid for damage due to an illegal act by the Buyer or if the Buyer intentionally acts to obtain indemnification according to this scheme.
No indemnification will be paid for the cause or extent of damage caused by, directly or indirectly, or is connected with nuclear processing, war, warlike conditions, civil war, revolution or rebellion or because of government intervention, strike, lock out, blockade or other similar events.
The indemnification will be paid no later than 30 days after the Buyer has carried out the obligations according to this buyer protection scheme. Following this date, default interest will be paid according to the Late Payment of Commercial Debts. Interest will not be paid if the amount is less than £10.
To the extent that the Buyer has received compensation, PriceRunner has the right to recover the compensation paid by Approved Seller, any other responsible for the damage or from an insurance company or other party.
Buyers requiring compensation must request this within 6 months of the time when the conditions which, according to these buyer protection terms, entitle such compensation. If the request is not made within that period, the right to compensation is lost.
Damage must be reported to PriceRunner via the email address claims@pricerunner.com. The damage report must contain the following:
If the Buyer is not satisfied with the handling of their case, the Buyer can contact PriceRunner again to clarify any inconsistencies. If the Buyer is still not satisfied, Citizen Advice can be contacted and help you about your consumer rights.
