Products

Many of the products we sell are of a technical nature and it is not practical to publish detailed specifications of all of the products and keep specifications 100% up to date. Please contact us on shop@gibbs-home-electronics.co.uk for clarification of any precise technical details.

Ordering, Payment and Pricing

All the prices on the site are in £ sterling and are inclusive of VAT. Payment can be made by Visa, MasterCard, Switch and Delta via our in store systems.

All goods remain the property of Gibbs Home Electronics Ltd until paid for in full.

In the event a product is listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or error in pricing information received from our suppliers, we have the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed whether or not the order has been confirmed and payment charged. If payment has been charged for the purchase and your order is cancelled we will immediately issue a refund. The website and the products and prices described on it are subject to change without notice.
