The Ordering Process
Having selected the items that you wish to purchase, you will be asked to either login or register your email with a password.
Following this you will be asked to enter a delivery address for the items and an invoice address where your debit or credit card is registered. You will then be shown a confirmation page where we will show you the total costs including postage & packing and the delivery and billing address that you have entered. All items are inclusive of VAT where applicable.
After you have confirmed these details your encrypted order will be transferred to HSBC Secure ePayments for you to enter your card payment details. Following this you will be returned to The Modern Gardener site where we will show you a confirmation of your order if your payment information is accepted. We will also send you an email with details of your order.
We accept most major credit/debit cards including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Visa Delta, Visa Electron, Maestro and Solo.
You will receive a further email when we have dispatched the order. Your credit card will be charged when your order is dispatched.
We reserve the right to refuse a transaction for any reason and at any time in the transaction process at our discretion.

If the products are not to your satisfaction for any reason, please contact us within 8 days of receiving the delivery, expressing your wish to return the goods and detailing the products you would like to return. We will advise you of how to return the products, either a) we will arrange pick up of large items, or b) we will provide instructions on how to send the products back. Products should be returned in the original and undamaged packaging. We reserve the right to refund a reduced amount of the original price if the packaging is returned in a condition that does not allow us to resell at full price. Once we receive the products we will check that they are in a re-saleable condition, and refund your payment deducting return delivery costs if applicable.
