Phone or Fax or email orders will be considered legally binding. All orders placed are legal commitments and must therefore be honoured. If you wish to cancel an order, then a cancellation fee will apply. The Cancellation fee is 50% of the cost of the product ordered. It is NOT acceptable to place an order and then refuse to pay for it. It wastes our time and our limited valuable resources, thus we will insist on a cancellation fee. Some of the services we offer are Free (i.e without charge or fee). These will be maintained as long as possible / practical. If we have to change the services, discontinue them, or charge for them, we will post an announcement on the what's new section of the site. We will email those establishments effected by the changes.
