Terms and conditions

Ordering

To purchase a product, or just to put it into your shopping basket for a later decision, choose the item and make any associated product choices e.g. colour, then click the 'Add to Cart button'. You can view the contents of your basket at any time by clicking on the 'Cart' button. When viewing your cart you have the option to update your order by amending product quantities or removing items.

When you have selected the products you would like to purchase proceed to the checkout. At the checkout, all customers have the option to register their details with us. This allows you to check the status of your order, and receive updates on new products or special offers. If you do not wish to register your details the order can be completed with the provision of an email address only.

If for some reason a product is out of stock we will contact you with the options of waiting for the item to be back-ordered, receiving only those items currently in stock or cancelling the full order.

Age restrictions

By ordering swords, knives, daggers or any other products restricted by law you are confirming that you are aged at least 18 years or older. We reserve the right to conduct age checks and request proof of age for any purchase.

Invitation to treat

The goods on our website are an "Invitation to Treat" only. This means we will only accept an order when we (Royal Armouries Trading and Enterprises Ltd.) send you an email informing you that we have received the order and have accepted your request to purchase.

If you have placed an order for this item we will contact you letting you know that a refund has been issued and informing you that you may purchase the item at the correct price if you would like.
