We reserve the right to cancel a transaction between ourselves and the customer for the following reasons:
- as we only source very limited amounts of the materials we use, we may have insufficient materials to make an item that has been popular.

If we do cancel an order, the customer will be notified by email or telephone, and the customer’s credit card will be re-credited as soon as possible. We will not be obliged to offer any additional compensation for disappointment suffered.
