Description of Goods
The Frockery makes every effort to describe items as accurately as possible and will never knowingly misrepresent any item on this website.
You should scrutinise the photographs and descriptions before ordering. We try to ensure that photographs show clear images of the items, but colours may not always be accurately reproduced, in which case we will mention this in the item description. Additional photographs and measurements will be provided by email on request.
You should note that pre-owned garments and accessories, especially vintage and retro items, are rarely found to be in perfect or mint condition and may have been stored for long periods. They will therefore show a varying degree of wear, but any flaws, marks, damage or special cleaning requirements will be pointed out in the item description. Our pricing reflects the fact that we do not routinely launder or clean items prior to dispatch.
Please also remember that vintage sizes bear little or no resemblance to contemporary sizes. You should always refer to the measurements provided in the item description rather than the given label size, and note that any ‘best fit’ suggestion we make will be based on modern day sizing. In order to gauge the suitability of an item, you may find it useful to compare our stated measurements with those of one of your own garments which is a comfortable fit. Our garment measurements are taken with the item laid flat, and all sizes in our descriptions are approximate. Please refer to our sizing guidelines for further information.
Availability and Prices
The goods listed for sale on The Frockery website are subject to availability, and prices are subject to change until we confirm acceptance of your order by email. If an item is unavailable for any reason, we will notify you by email and make an immediate refund to the source of the original payment, whether that be to a PayPal account, debit or credit card.
Payment
You can pay securely online and we accept all major credit and debit card payments via RBSWorldpay or Paypal. Online payment is quick and easy and your order can be processed and dispatched as soon as the transaction has cleared. Please note that we do not accept card payments by telephone.
Alternatively, you may pay by UK cheque or postal order, in which case you should simply indicate this option during the ordering process.Your chosen item(s) will be reserved for a period of 7 days and your order will be dispatched upon receipt of your cleared payment.
If you are an overseas buyer, please contact us with details of the item(s) you wish to purchase. We will then e-mail you an invoice and will reserve the item(s) for a period of 7 days from the date of issue of the invoice.
Any personal details you provide will only be used by The Frockery for fulfilling your order and will not be passed on to a third party.
Dispatch and delivery
Upon receipt of your order and cleared payment, The Frockery will aim to dispatch your goods within 3 working days. You will be sent a confirmation e-mail upon dispatch of the goods. If you urgently require an item, please let us know when you place your order and we will do our best to expedite delivery.
The Frockery ships internationally. For UK delivery addresses, items will ordinarily be sent by first class recorded delivery or courier service for which a signature is required. Special next day delivery is also available at checkout. For delivery addresses outside the UK, items will be sent by airmail.
In keeping with our green principles, we re-use or recycle packaging materials wherever possible, so please don't be surprised to receive your ordered goods in unconventional cartons!
