This page (together with the documents referred to on it) tells you the terms and conditions on which we supply any of the CDs listed on our website at www.musicmagpie.co.uk to you.

Please read these terms and conditions carefully before ordering any CDs from our site. You should understand that by ordering any of our CDs, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions and you should print a copy of these terms and conditions for your future reference.

Please click on the button marked "I Accept" at the end of these terms and conditions if you accept them. Please understand that if you refuse to accept these terms and conditions, you will not be able to order any CDs from our site.

1. Information About Us
www.musicmagpie.co.uk is a site operated by musicmagpie which is the trading name of Entertainment Magpie Limited, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 6277562 with its registered office at 22 Castle Street, Macclesfield, Cheshire, SK11 6AF, which is our main trading address. VAT number TBC.

2. Your Status
By placing an order through our site, you warrant that:
(a) You are legally capable of entering into binding contracts; and
(b) Where CDs contain adult material, you are at least 18 years old; and
(c) You are resident in the UK; and
(d) You are accessing our site from the UK.

3. How the Contract is Formed between Us
3.1. After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a CD. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the CD has been dispatched (“the Dispatch Confirmation”). The contract between us (“the Contract”) will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation.

3.2. The Contract will relate only to those CDs whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other CDs which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such CDs has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.

4. Quality of CDs
4.1. You acknowledge that CDs sold by us, pursuant to the Contract, will be pre-played CDs.

4.2. We use sophisticated equipment to check the CDs we sell and warrant that, although pre-played, the disk will be in perfect playing condition when dispatched to you.

4.3. CDs will be dispatched with all original covers, artwork, booklets and other inserts which were supplied with the CDs when we purchased them ourselves.

4.4. The cases for the CDs will be structurally sound but may have some blemishes and minor damage associated with the prior day to day use of the pre played CD.

4.5. Should you receive any CD which is defective (following the process set out in Condition 10) or which is satisfactorily proved by you to have been damaged in transit, then the refunds policy, set out in Condition 10, will apply (such policy not affecting your statutory rights as a consumer).

5. Third Party Links
5.1. We may provide links on our site to the websites of other companies, whether affiliated with us or not. We cannot give any undertaking, that products you purchase from third party sellers through our site, or from companies to whose website we have provided a link on our site, will be of satisfactory quality, and any such warranties are DISCLAIMED by us absolutely. This DISCLAIMER does not affect your statutory rights against the third party seller. We will notify you when a third party is involved in a transaction, and we may disclose your customer information related to that transaction to the third party seller.

6. Consumer Rights
6.1. If you are contracting as a consumer, you may cancel a Contract at any time within 7 working days, beginning the day after you receive the CDs.

6.2. In this case you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the CDs in accordance with our refunds policy (set out in Condition 10 below).

6.3. To cancel a Contract you must inform us in writing. You must also return the CDs to us immediately, in the same condition in which you received them, and at your own cost and risk.

6.4. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the CDs whilst they are in your possession and if you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action of you for compensation.

6.5. You will not have any right to cancel a Contract for the supply of any of the CDs if the tamper-proof seal on them has been broken.

6.6. Neither this provision nor any other provision of the Contract will otherwise affect your statutory rights in relation to the CDs subject to your understanding that any CDs you order from us will be pre-played CDs although we warrant that they will be in perfect playing condition. Please see our Returns Policy for imperfect CDs.

7. Availability and Delivery
Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within a reasonable time of the date of the Dispatch Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.

8. Risk and Title
8.1. The CDs will be at your risk from the time of delivery but ownership of the CDs will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the CDs, including delivery charges.

9. Price and Payment
9.1. The price of any CDs will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error.

9.2. These prices include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which are detailed on the website.

9.3. Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you a Dispatch Confirmation.

9.4. Our site contains a large number of CDs and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the CDs listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a CD's correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the CD to you. If a CD´s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the CD, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.

9.5. We are under no obligation to provide the CD to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.

9.6. Payment for all CDs must be by credit or debit card. We accept payment with most major types of credit card except American Express at this time. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we despatch your order.

10. Our Refunds Policy
10.1. When you return a CD to us because you have cancelled the Contract between us within the 7 day cooling off period, set out in Condition 6, we will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day you have given notice of your cancellation (subject always to us having received the CD back from you). In this case, we will refund the price of the CD in full, including the cost of sending the CD to you. However, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the item to us.

10.2. When you return a CD to us because you claim that the CD is defective, we will examine the returned CD with our state of the art equipment and will notify you of your refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time.

10.3. When you return a CD to us because you claim that the CD has been damaged in transit, you should also return the packaging in which it was delivered, together with any notification of damage which you may have received from the postal service who delivered it. We will examine the CD to assure ourselves that we believe the damage which it may have sustained is consistent with the sort of damage which could occur during transit, and will notify you of your refund by e-mail within a reasonable period of time.

10.4. If we agree that the CD is defective, under Condition 10.2 or 10.3, we will usually process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 7 days of the day we confirmed to you via e-mail that you are entitled to a refund for the defective CD.

10.5. CDs returned by you because of an agreed defect will be refunded in full, including a refund of any delivery charges for sending the item to you and the cost incurred by you in returning the item to us (if made known to us).

10.6. If we do not agree that the CD is defective, we will nevertheless provide you with a refund but will retain from that refund a charge to cover the time and expense of examining the CD and of communicating our findings with you and providing you with the refund.

10.7. In both cases, any refunds to you will usually be made using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase.

11. Our Liability
11.1. We warrant to you that any CD purchased from us through our site is of satisfactory quality and reasonably fit for all the purposes for which products of the kind are commonly supplied.

11.2. Our liability for losses you suffer as a result of us breaking this agreement is strictly limited to the purchase price of the CD you purchased and any losses which are a foreseeable consequence of us breaking the agreement. Losses are foreseeable where they could be contemplated by you and us at the time your order is accepted by us.

11.3. This does not include or limit in any way our liability:
(a) For death or personal injury caused by our negligence;
(b) Under section 2(3) of the Consumer Protection Act 1987;
(c) For fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
(d) For any matter for which it would be illegal for us to exclude, or attempt to exclude, our liability.

11.4. We are not responsible for indirect losses which happen as a side effect of the main loss or damage and which are not foreseeable by you and us (such as loss of income or revenue, loss of business, loss of profits or contracts, loss of anticipated savings, loss of data, waste of management or office time) however arising and whether caused by tort (including negligence), breach of contract or otherwise, even if foreseeable.

12. Written Communications
Applicable laws require that some of the information or communications we send to you should be in writing. When using our site, you accept that communication with us will be mainly electronic. We will contact you by e-mail or provide you with information by posting notices on our website. For contractual purposes, you agree to this electronic means of communication and you acknowledge that all contracts, notices, information and other communications that we provide to you electronically comply with any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. This condition does not affect your statutory rights.

13. Notices
All notices given by you to us must be given to Customer Services at enquiries@musicmagpie.co.uk or at the address set out in Condition 1.

Notice will be deemed received and properly served immediately when posted on our website, 24 hours after an e-mail is sent, or three days after the date of posting of any letter.

14. Transfer of Rights and Obligations
14.1. The contract between you and us is binding on you and us and on our respective successors and assigns.

14.2. You may not transfer, assign, charge or otherwise dispose of a Contract, or any of your rights or obligations arising under it, without our prior written consent.

15. Events Outside our Control

Our performance under any Contract is deemed to be suspended for the period that the Force Majeure Event continues, and we will have an extension of time for performance for the duration of that period. We will use our reasonable endeavours to bring the Force Majeure Event to a close or to find a solution by which our obligations under the Contract may be performed despite the Force Majeure Event.

16. Waiver
16.1. If we fail, at any time during the term of a Contract, to insist upon strict performance of any of your obligations under the Contract or any of these terms and conditions, or if we fail to exercise any of the rights or remedies to which we are entitled under the Contract, this shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies and shall not relieve you from compliance with such obligations.

16.2. A waiver by us of any default shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default.

16.3. No waiver by us of any of these terms and conditions shall be effective unless it is expressly stated to be a waiver and is communicated to you in writing in accordance with Condition 13 above.

17. Severability
If any of these terms and conditions or any provisions of a Contract are determined by any competent authority to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, such term, condition or provision will to that extent be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.

STANDARD CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE OF PRE-PLAYED CDs

1. Interpretation

In the Contract:

Contract: means the Quotation and the Seller's acceptance of the Quotation;

CDs: the pre-played CD’s including original artwork, covers, booklets or other inserts intended to be bought by musicmagpie from the Seller (including any part or parts of them);

Musicmagpie: is the trading name of Entertainment Magpie Limited, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 6277562 with its registered office at PO Box 150, Hazel Grove, Stockport, Cheshire, SK7 6WD, which is our main trading address. VAT number TBC.

Quotation: musicmagpie's written quotation to purchase the CDs, incorporating these conditions; and

Seller: the person who accepts musicmagpie's Quotation.

1. Application of Terms
1.1. These conditions are the only conditions upon which musicmagpie is prepared to deal with the Seller and they shall govern the Contract to the entire exclusion of all other terms or conditions.

1.2. These conditions apply to all musicmagpie's purchases and any variation to these conditions shall have no effect unless expressly agreed in writing and signed by a director of musicmagpie.

2. Formation of Contract
2.1. The Seller must confirm to musicmagpie the CDs it wishes musicmagpie to make an offer to purchase. The information required by musicmagpie to make a Quotation is the barcode of each individual CD which must be sent to musicmagpie by entering the details on the appropriate website page.

2.2. Following receipt of each barcode, musicmagpie will provide a Quotation to the Seller of the price at which musicmagpie is prepared to purchase each individual CD. The Seller acknowledges that only CDs which conform to the necessary quality and provenance standards set out in these Conditions will be accepted and CD’s which do not meet the necessary standard will be returned to the Seller under Condition 3.5.

2.3. The Quotation will give an individual price for each CD for which the Seller requests a price. Each Quotation for CDs by musicmagpie from the Seller shall be deemed to be an offer by musicmagpie to buy that CD subject to these conditions (including, in particular, Clause 5.2).

2.4. The Quotation must be accepted by the Seller by following the process set out on the Website which will require the Seller to confirm that it accepts these Conditions and then to confirm its agreement to accept the Quotation by pressing the “Accept” button, at which point the Contract will be formed. The Seller is then legally obliged to post the CDs in question to musicmagpie in accordance with the process and within the timescales set out below.

2.5. The Seller should retain a copy of the Quotation for its records.

2.6. If the Seller accepts the Quotation by following the appropriate procedure, musicmagpie will send the pre-paid and pre-addressed package for delivery of the CDs to the Seller. The Quotation will lapse automatically on expiry of the timescale set out in Clause 5.2. If the Seller sends CDs to musicmagpie after the expiry of the Quotation, it does so at its own risk in relation to the price musicmagpie may offer for the purchase of those CDs.

3. Seller’s Warranty of Quality and Ownership
3.1. The Seller warrants and confirms that the CDs shall:
(a) be legally owned by the Seller who is entitled to sell them to musicmagpie;
(b) have been legitimately obtained CDs and are not pirated or other unauthorised copies (such as rental or library CDs or other CDs not capable of sale by the Seller);
(c) the disk is in perfect playing condition and the jewel case is structurally sound (although the case may have some blemishes on associated with historical day to day use); and
(d) comprise all original artwork, covers, booklets or other inserts sold originally with the CD.

Magpie reminds the Seller of the CDs that digital copies of CDs should not be retained after ownership of the CD has been passed.

3.2. In relation to Condition 3.1(b), musicmagpie puts you on notice that it has sophisticated equipment to check the origin and authenticity of CDs and that any pirated CDs or others of dubious origin or authenticity will be reported to the police and other anti-piracy bodies together with your contact details.

3.3. In relation to Condition 3.1(c), musicmagpie has state of the art equipment for checking the playing quality of CDs and will batch test or individually test (at its discretion) any CDs sent in by the Seller to determine playing quality.

3.4. musicmagpie's rights under these conditions are in addition to the statutory conditions implied in favour of musicmagpie by the Sale of Goods Act 1979.

3.5. If CDs delivered by the Seller fail to meet quality expectations, or are delivered without the relevant artwork, covers, booklets or other inserts, musicmagpie shall not be bound to honour its Quotation in relation to those CDs. If the disk is deemed by musicmagpie to be in need of cosmetic repair, musicmagpie reserves the right to make a deduction of 50p from the original offer price of that CD, to enable musicmagpie to be able to offer the product for resale as ‘in perfect playing condition’. If less than 50p was originally offered for the CD, an amount equal to the original offer price will be deducted, taking the revised offer price to zero. Returning the CD to the seller is not an option. If the jewel case is not structurally sound, musicmagpie will similarly not return the CD but instead replace the case with a new one and in this instance musicmagpie reserves the right to make a deduction of 25p for the cost of replacing the case.

3.6. Any inspection or testing carried out shall not diminish or otherwise affect the Seller's obligations under the Contract.

3.7. If any of the CDs fail to comply with the provisions set out in this Condition 3 musicmagpie shall be entitled to avail itself of any one or more remedies listed in Condition 12.

4. Indemnity
The Seller shall keep musicmagpie indemnified in full against all direct, indirect or consequential liabilities (all three of which terms include, without limitation, loss of profit, loss of business, depletion of goodwill and like loss), loss, damages, injury, costs and expenses (including legal and other professional fees and expenses) awarded against or incurred or paid by musicmagpie as a result of or in connection with:
(a) defective CDs;
(b) the Seller’s provision of inaccurate or defective contact details (whether e-mail, telephone or postal address); and
(c) any infringement or alleged infringement of any intellectual property rights of any third party associated with the CDs.

5. Delivery
5.1. The CDs shall be delivered to musicmagpie by the Seller in the self addressed and pre-paid packaging sent by musicmagpie to the Seller to musicmagpie's place of business or to such other place of delivery as is set out on the packaging sent to the Seller.

5.2. The Seller is obliged to return the CDs which are contained in the Quotation within 5 days of the receipt by it of the package. Musicmagpie cannot be responsible for packages which go astray in the postal system and the Seller is advised to obtain proof of postage when sending the CDs to musicmagpie. The CDs received by musicmagpie will be conclusive evidence of what the Seller posted irrespective of any schedule or inventory of CDs or the CDs not matching the details on the Quotation.

5.3. The Seller shall ensure that each delivery is accompanied by the paperwork that the package obliges the Seller to return, including a signed copy of the Quotation and a signed copy of the list of CDs set out in the Quotation and expected to be delivered under the Contract. CDs sent in response to the Seller’s acceptance of a Quotation must be sent in one consignment and no delivery by instalments is permitted.

5.4. If the CDs are not delivered on the due date (or not all of the CDs supposed to be delivered are included in the package) then, without prejudice to any other rights which it may have, musicmagpie reserves the right to:
(a) cancel the Contract in whole or in part or re-quote for price that it is willing to pay for the CDs in question;
(b) refuse to accept any subsequent delivery of the CDs which the Seller attempts to make;
(c) recover from the Seller any expenditure reasonably incurred by musicmagpie in making the Quotation and in sending out the pre-paid packaging; and
(d) claim damages for any additional costs, loss or expenses incurred by musicmagpie which are in any way attributable to the Seller's failure to deliver the CDs on the due date.

5.5. musicmagpie will not return any packaging material to the Seller and the Seller acknowledges that the packaging that musicmagpie may use to return any CDs to the Seller may not be the original packaging in which the Seller sent them to musicmagpie, such original packaging being removed from the CD as part of musicmagpie’s processing of it.

5.6. musicmagpie shall not be deemed to have accepted the CDs until it has had 7 days to inspect them following delivery and musicmagpie’s log of what it has received from the Seller shall be conclusive evidence of what was posted by the Seller and no claims for missing items will be entertained by musicmagpie.

6. Risk/Property
6.1. Risk of loss of or damage to the CDs shall remain with the Seller until the CDs are received by musicmagpie. Although musicmagpie is setting the mode of delivery, the Seller acknowledges that until a package containing the CDs has arrived at musicmagpie’s premises, it cannot know conclusively whether the scheduled CDs have been delivered or what condition they are in and cannot be held to compensate the Seller for the value which might appear on the Quotation in advance of checking the CDs.

6.2. Legal title to the CDs will pass when musicmagpie makes payment for the CDs for which payment becomes due in accordance with these conditions.

7. Price
7.1. The price of the CDs shall be stated in the Quotation subject always to musicmagpie’s rights in relation to the quality and provenance of the CDs set out in these conditions and unless otherwise agreed in writing by musicmagpie shall be inclusive of value added tax but inclusive of all other charges.

7.2. In particular, musicmagpie shall not be obliged to pay any amounts for CDs which are in breach of the warranties set out in Condition 3.1.

7.3. In relation to CDs delivered in breach of Conditions 3.1(c) and (d), musicmagpie reserves the right to make the deductions as detailed in section 3.5.

7.4. In relation to CDs delivered in breach of Conditions 3.1(b), musicmagpie shall not be obliged to return them to the Seller and is entitled to forward them to any authority it deems suitable in relation to law enforcement or anti-piracy and counterfeiting authority or body and such CDs shall not qualify for any payment from musicmagpie to the Seller.

8. Payment
8.1. musicmagpie shall dispatch payment within 3 days of delivery of the CDs to musicmagpie by cheque or on occasion by offering to credit a credit card that has been previously utilised for a musicmagpie transaction. On screen instructions on the musicmagpie website will advise as appropriate of this eventuality. Payment will not be made by cash under any circumstances. Time for payment shall not be of the essence of the Contract.

8.2. Without prejudice to any other right or remedy, musicmagpie reserves the right to set off any amount owing at any time from the Seller to musicmagpie against any amount payable by the Seller to musicmagpie under the Contract.

9. Confidentiality and Data Protection
9.1. The Seller shall keep in strict confidence all technical or commercial know-how, specifications, inventions, processes or initiatives which are of a confidential nature and have been disclosed to the Seller by musicmagpie or its agents and any other confidential information concerning musicmagpie's business or its products which the Seller may obtain and the Seller shall restrict disclosure of such confidential material to such of its employees, agents or sub-contractors as need to know the same for the purpose of discharging the Seller's obligations to musicmagpie and shall ensure that such employees, agents or sub-contractors are subject to like obligations of confidentiality as bind the Seller.

9.2. musicmagpie shall act strictly in accordance with the obligations placed on it by the Data Protection Act 1998 and subsequent legislation subject to its ability to pass on the personal data of any Seller in relation to who pirated or counterfeit CDs are passed to enforcement authorities. The Seller acknowledges in this regard that musicmagpie has the sort of equipment able to identify pirated or counterfeited CDs that the Seller does not have and that musicmagpie’s passing on of the Seller’s personal data may result in an investigation into the origin of the relevant CDs. musicmagpie and the Seller both acknowledge that the Seller may have purchased pirated or counterfeited CDs honestly and does not necessarily have the means to identify such illegal goods in which case, the Seller may become obliged to assist the authorities in their enquiries but that the Seller may not themselves have any responsibility or liability for the provenance of the relevant CDs.

10. The Company's Property
Pre-paid and addressed packaging sent to the Seller by musicmagpie must only be used for the delivery to musicmagpie of the CDs which are the subject of the Contract and attendant administrative paperwork and the Seller shall use such packaging for no other purpose.

11. Termination
11.1. musicmagpie shall have the right at any time by giving notice in writing to the Seller to terminate the Contract forthwith if the Seller commits a material breach of any of the terms and conditions of the Contract.

11.2. Termination of the Contract, however arising, shall be without prejudice to the rights and duties of musicmagpie accrued prior to termination.

11.3. The conditions which expressly or impliedly have effect after termination shall continue to be enforceable notwithstanding termination.

12. Remedies
Without prejudice to any other right or remedy which musicmagpie may have, if any CDs are not supplied in accordance with, or the Seller fails to comply with, any of the terms of the Contract musicmagpie shall be entitled to avail itself of any one or more of the following remedies at its discretion, whether or not any part of the CDs have been accepted by musicmagpie:
(a) to rescind the Quotation;
(b) to activate the procedures outlined in clause 3.5 above; and
(c) to claim such damages as may have been sustained by musicmagpie in consequence of the Seller's breach or breaches of the Contract.

13. Force Majeure
Neither party shall be liable for any failure to perform its obligations under the Contract if it is prevented from or delayed in the carrying on of its business due to circumstances beyond the reasonable control of musicmagpie including, without limitation, acts of God, governmental actions, war or national emergency, acts of terrorism, protests, riot, civil commotion, fire, explosion, flood, epidemic, lock-outs, strikes or other labour disputes (particularly in relation to postal services), or restraints or delays affecting carriers.

14. Notices
14.1 Applicable laws require that some of the information or communications musicmagpie sends to the Seller should be in writing. When using musicmagpie’s site, the Seller accepts that communication with musicmagpie will be mainly electronic. musicmagpie will contact the Seller by e-mail or provide the Seller with information by posting notices on musicmagpie’s website. For contractual purposes, the Seller agrees to this electronic means of communication and the Seller acknowledges that all contracts, notices, information and other communications that musicmagpie provides to the Seller electronically comply with any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. This condition does not affect the Seller’s statutory rights.

14.2 All notices given by the Seller to musicmagpie must be given to Customer Services at enquiries@musicmagpie.co.uk or at the address set out in Condition 1. musicmagpie may give notice to the Seller at either the e-mail or postal address the Seller provides to musicmagpie when placing an order, or in any of the ways specified in this Clause 13 above. Notice will be deemed received and properly served immediately when posted on musicmagpie’s website, 24 hours after an e-mail is sent, or three days after the date of posting of any letter. In proving the service of any notice, it will be sufficient to prove, in the case of a letter, that such letter was properly addressed, stamped and placed in the post and, in the case of an e-mail, that such e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.

15. General
15.1. Each right or remedy of musicmagpie under the Contract is without prejudice to any other right or remedy of musicmagpie whether under the Contract or not.

15.2. If any provision of the Contract is found by any court, tribunal or administrative body of competent jurisdiction to be wholly or partly illegal, invalid, void, voidable, unenforceable or unreasonable it shall, to the extent of such illegality, invalidity, voidness, voidability, unenforceability or unreasonableness, be deemed severable and the remaining provisions of the Contract and the remainder of such provision shall continue in full force and effect.

15.3. Failure or delay by musicmagpie in enforcing or partially enforcing any provision of the Contract shall not be construed as a waiver of any of its rights under the Contract.
