and the customer is bound by any such modifications or revisions
2. Contract with customer
The contract between EBUK and the customer comes into existence upon EBUK's acceptance of the customers order i.e. when payment

4. Delivery of Goods
EBUK will deliver the goods ordered to the delivery address supplied by the customer. Availability permitting, all orders paid for

A note explaining the reason for return should also be enclosed. This does not affect your statutory rights.
