If this is the case we will inform you immediately with an expected delivery date. All delivery dates are estimates & are subject to availability. Should one or more items in the same order be out of stock the entire order will be held until the whole order is ready. If you would like in stock items to be sent before the entire order is ready an additional postage payment may be required.

Cancellation must be made within 48 hours of placing the order & this MUST be done by telephone on 01233 740817 or email at info@corkfarmequestrian.co.uk.

Price Match Guarantee
How does Cork Farm Equestrian Price-Match Guarantee work?
If you find a lower price from any equestrian retailer on a new identical item, simply provide verifiable proof of the lower price and we do our best to match it at the time of making your purchase. Cork Farm Equestrian does not price match on sale, clearance or past seasonal items where discounts have been applied by other companies, or on delivery charges. Cork Farm Equestrian will not price match on items found on auction sites such as Ebay or Amazon. Price match purchases must be made by email to info@corkfarmequestrian.co.uk. Cork Farm Equestrian reserves the right to withdraw the price match offer without explanation should the verification be unsatisfactory or unreasonable.
Which items does Cork Farm Equestrian Price Match?
Almost everything we sell. The item must be identical, including model number, size & colour. The item must be in stock and available to purchase at that price from another equestrian retailer & we reserve the right to verify. We do not price match some personalised or special order items.

Customs
Goods ordered from Cork Farm Equestrian for delivery outside the UK may be subject to import duties and taxes which will be levied once the parcel reaches its destination country.

WEEE Regulations
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is now UK law. The legislation aims to make producers pay for the collection, treatment and recovery of waste electrical equipment. The regulations also mean that suppliers of equipment like high street shops and internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste equipment free of charge. The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK. Much of the UK’s WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health. Many electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items helps to save our natural finite resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending electrical goods to landfill. Distributors of new Electric and Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites. Cork Farm Equestrian Ltd is obliged under these regulations to offer our customers free take-back of their WEEE on a like-for-like basis when they buy a new Electrical or Electronic product from us. Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown below: Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste so that they can be recycled.
