12.3 All payments due from you to us under these Conditions shall be made by you in Cleared Funds unless otherwise agreed by us in writing.

12.7 The price of Products is dependent on market fluctuations in price and if payment or any required personal information is not received by the applicable deadline, the price of the Product may increase according to market fluctuations, in which case, Condition 15 shall apply. Further, if we have asked you or you have requested to pay in advance, the price of your Order shall only be fixed once we have received sufficient payment from you (either full payment or such amount as we have requested from you). The advance payment shall be an estimate of the price of your Order and shall be subject to fluctuations until the advance payment has been received by us, following which we shall fix the price and confirm the final amount to you.
12.8 Where we do not have Products in stock for an Order with a value of £50,000 or more, we will require a non-refundable deposit from you to secure your Order. The applicable price shall be set according to the live market price if your Order is placed between 9am and 4pm on a Working Day. If you wish to place an Order over a value of £30,000 outside of office hours, we may ask you to call us between 9am and 4pm on a Working Day. This may be because we require further identification from you or because we need to buy additional bullion to back your Order.
12.9Prices for our Products may change from time to time. Except as set out in these Conditions, changes will not affect any Order which we have accepted in accordance with these Conditions.
12.10The price of a Product does not include delivery charges, but is inclusive of any VAT that may be applicable in the UK[UH12]
12.11If you request us to deliver your Products to you or to put your Products, you must also pay our delivery costs (Delivery Costs). The Delivery Costs shall include our actual cost of delivery, packaging and insurance and shall be calculated by reference to the price of the Products. Unless we advise you otherwise, the parcel shall be insured up to the price of the Products during transit.
12.12We take reasonable care to ensure that the prices of Products are correct at the time at which they are provided. However, we supply a wide range of Products and it is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, the price we provide to you in respect of some of our Products may be incorrect. It is also possible that when paying for your Products you may pay the wrong amount. The following provisions shall apply where we discover an error in the price of any Product that you have ordered when processing your Order.
a) If a Product’s correct price is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct higher price or cancelling your Order. We will not take any further steps to process your Order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the Order as cancelled and notify you in writing. If you have paid any part of the price of the Product but we are unable to contact you to take your further instructions, we will refund such sums to you as soon as reasonably possible.
b) If we accept an Order where there is a pricing error that is obvious and unmistakable and which could reasonably have been recognised by you as mispricing, we may end the Product Contract with you, refund to you any sums you have paid under the Product Contract and require the return of any Products supplied to you under that Product Contract.
c) If we have quoted the correct price to you and a Product Contract has been formed, but when paying the price, you have paid an amount less than the quoted price, you must make payment of the remainder due by the deadline we notify you of. Your Product will not be delivered until such outstanding amount is received in Cleared Funds. If you do not pay such amount due within this time, Condition 15.4 will apply.[UH13]
12.13Condition 12.12 only applies to pricing errors. Where prices have changed because of your late payment, Condition 15.4 shall apply.
12.14Local currencies will be converted to GBP at the prevailing retail rate prior to the day of the Order.
13 Payment
13.1 The Customer shall pay by logging into their online banking via Truelayer as well as by card payment subject to transaction limitations, The Minted App’s third-party payments provider and make payment thereon.[UH14]
13.2 Any payments not received by us within 24 hours of your Order being placed may be cancelled and you may be charged an Administration Fee in accordance with Condition 15.4 below. We will allow up to three working days to receive international payments before cancelling your Order.
13.5 If requested by us, you may be required to pay a non-refundable deposit to fix the price and secure your Order (Deposit), pending receipt of full payment in Cleared Funds. If you pay a non-refundable Deposit, the price will be fixed at the time you place your Order.
13.6 Alternatively, we may require you or you may request to pay for your Order in advance of us fixing the price for your Order (Advance Payment). Once we have received payment in full (or such proportion of payment agreed by us), we shall fix the price and inform you. You shall then be liable to pay us the balance between the amount you have paid us and the final balance, or we shall refund you the difference (if the price has dropped). If you make an Advance Payment, the price will only be fixed once we have received the Advance Payment and we have informed you of this.
13.7 If you are paying for your Order in advance in accordance with Condition 13.6, you shall be entitled to cancel your Order at any time before we have informed you that we have fixed the price. If you cancel your Order, we will refund you the Advance Payment we have received, but we may charge you an Administration Fee in accordance with Condition 15.4.
14 Ownership
14.1 Under these Terms, risk in the Products shall pass to you on completion of delivery in accordance with Condition 17.4.
14.2 You will own the Products once you receive the confirmation of our acceptance of the Order, we have received the Products from our supplier, we have received payment in full in Cleared Funds and we have received all the documents required in respect of your Order.
15 Cancellation

You agree that you shall not be entitled to cancel any Orders placed or Orders fulfilled by us. We will use reasonable endeavours to assist you to cancel any Orders which we have not yet fulfilled, however cancellation is not guaranteed.
15.2 If the Product you have ordered is the latest year coin and that coin is superseded by the following year coin prior to us receiving your Order, we reserve the right to supply the following year coin in place of the latest year coin originally ordered.
15.3 Where cancellation is approved by us for whatever reason, you will be liable for any adverse movement that negatively affects us in the primary Product price based on the difference in the Spot Price from when the Order was placed and when the cancellation is accepted by Us, multiplied by the Product content of the Order(s)).
15.4 If cancellation occurs as a result of payment not being made by you or received by us in accordance with the applicable deadlines set out in this Condition 13, or if the personal information required is not provided by the relevant deadline we may charge you an administration fee which will be at least 1% of the price of the Product(s) including any additional metal price movements that negatively affects us, as a result of you breaking the Product Contract by failing to make payment or provide your personal information by the relevant deadline. Any Administration Fee shall be payable within seven days of you being notified that an Administration Fee has been charged. The Administration Fee shall be payable regardless as to whether or not we have accepted your Order
15.5 If you cancel an Order where the price has not yet been fixed in accordance with Condition 13.7, we may charge you an Administration Fee in accordance with Condition 15.4 to cover our administrative costs of processing your Order and returning any Advance Payment to you.
15.6 Where necessary in cases of cancelation, you may be required to make payment for additional services such as delivery.
15.7 We reserve the right to take legal action against you to enforce these Conditions. If we have accepted your Order and you fail to make payment or provide personal information by the relevant deadline, we may be entitled to make a claim against you for reasonable compensation for the costs we have incurred or will incur as a result of you breaking your Product Contract and we reserve the right to deduct such amounts from any refund payable to you.
15.8 If you do not pay any Administration Fee or other money due or provide any personal information required by the relevant deadline, in addition to our other legal rights and remedies, we may refuse to deal with you in the future until all such money due to us is paid or personal information required is supplied by you.
15.9 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to us, we may suspend, terminate or refuse the performance of any Contract between you and us, without incurring any liability for losses that may have been sustained as a result and without giving notice, if:

i) a substantial portion of these Conditions; or
ii) any obligations set out in Conditions 6 (Identification), 8 (Contact Details),, 13 (Payments) and 17 (Delivery).

16 Quality
16.1 All images we show on the Customer Platform of the Products and their packaging and in any of our other advertising materials (such as brochures and printed advertisements) are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that your device’s display of the colours, or the photographs of the colours in our advertising materials, accurately reflect the colour of the Products or their packaging. We cannot guarantee that you will get the exact Product or packaging pictured in those images. The images of Products or packaging used on the Customer Platform and in advertising materials may be generic images of a particular kind of Product but not of the specific Product purchased. Due to the nature of the Products we sell (including second hand Products), Products of the same type and their packaging will vary and may be subject to imperfections. For example, the condition of certain Products may not be pristine, Products and packaging may be scuffed or scratched, and packaging (including presentation boxes and their lining) may be stained or discoloured. Products will be graded depending on their condition and images of Products may not display the exact Product or the grade of Product that you are purchasing. Please refer to the written description of the Product.
17 Delivery
17.1 All delivery of Product(s) will be made to your Customer Verified Address only and the time for delivery will depend on whether we hold the Product(s) you have ordered in stock. We will normally despatch Products within three working days of receipt of the full price of the Products in Cleared Funds and all paperwork required by us to process your Order where we have such Products in stock. We may be able to make certain Products available before this time, if requested by you, subject always to stock and market factors, but this may incur a premium price or stricter payment terms, which we will notify you of prior to placing your Order.
17.2 You will be provided with details of the transport and security costs of delivery and no delivery will be made until full payment of all associated costs have been fully received by The Minted App.
17.3 Any dates quoted for delivery are approximate only and are provided by the delivery carrier. The time of delivery is not of the essence. We shall not be liable for any delay in delivery that is caused by a Force Majeure Event or your failure to provide adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the delivery or requested by the delivery carrier.
17.4 If you notify us that you wish to delay the delivery of your Products for any reason before they are despatched, we may at our discretion agree to store your Products for you but a storage fee may be payable, the amount of which may depend on the length of storage but we will inform you of such storage fee when you ask to delay delivery.
17.5 You will need to confirm you are available to accept delivery on the nominated day before we will despatch your Products to you. You may be required to sign for your Products upon delivery and if you are not available, this may result in your Products being returned to a local sorting office or warehouse awaiting your collection or being returned to us. If your Products are returned to us in these circumstances, you will be recharged the delivery costs which we will need to receive from you in full before we can attempt re-delivery.
17.6 The Products will be your responsibility from the completion of delivery. If you are a consumer, delivery will be completed when the Products come in to your physical possession or the physical possession of a person nominated by you to accept delivery on your behalf (Authorised Person). If you are not a consumer, delivery will be completed when we deliver the Products to the delivery address provided by you
17.7 You or your Authorised Person must sign for receipt of the Product(s) and which means you accept that the Product(s) has been received in good condition. If at the time of delivery you or your Authorised Person contends that the packaging has been opened or damaged or that seals have been broken or removed or that unpacked items are damaged, you or your Authorised Person must refuse to accept delivery and ask the delivery carrier to return the parcel to sender. We are unable to accept returns for damaged parcels if you or your Authorised Person sign for and accept delivery. If you or your Authorised Person refuses or are unavailable to take delivery or if delivery cannot be completed for any reason not due to the negligence of The Minted App or its carriers, then we may arrange for the Products to be placed in storage with a Storage Provider at The Minted App’s discretion’. All costs of storage will be borne by you and we shall assume no liability whatsoever (whether for negligence, loss, non-delivery, miss-delivery, theft or otherwise) to you in such circumstances except if there has been wilful misconduct by us in the storage arrangements.
17.8 We try to ensure only Products that we hold in stock are shown as ‘in stock’ on the Customer Platform, but we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this. If we do not have your Products in stock or if you have pre-ordered Products that have not yet been released, we will inform you of this and will deliver your Products as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of the Products from our suppliers. Please be aware that we sometimes order Products from our suppliers in bulk. This means that if we do not have the Product(s) that you have ordered in stock, we may delay in ordering them from our suppliers until we have received a sufficient number of orders for the same Products from other customers to enable us to place a bulk order. Where you have placed an Order for second hand Products that we do not have in stock, we will be unable to supply the same to you until such Products become available on the market (if at all). In each of these circumstances, there may be a substantial delay to the delivery of the Products you have ordered (in some cases exceeding six months). If we are unable to meet the standard despatch times referred to in Conditions 17.1 and 17.2 or we consider that we may not be able to deliver your Products within 30 days of our acceptance of your Order, because they are out of stock, or due to any of the circumstances set out in this Condition 17.3, or due to any Force Majeure event (as defined in Condition 22), we will let you know as soon as possible (either when you place your Order or after this time using the contact details provided by you or via the Customer Platform) and will provide as much information to you as is reasonably possible in respect of an estimated despatch date.
18 Faulty Products
18.1 If we accept your Order and you are a consumer, we will be under a legal duty to supply Products that are in conformity with your Order as accepted by us and these Conditions. If you are a consumer, you will always have legal rights in relation to Products that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by the returns policy in these Conditions.

If you have returned any Products to us because they are faulty or misdescribed, we will inspect the Products and if found to be faulty, we will issue a replacement or refund the price of the Product in full.

[HS3]Bold to draw attention
[HS4]This could read as Minted owing someone money for the sale of their products - possible rewording?
[UH5]Is this the case for e-commerce transactions
[UH6]Hamzah, is this correct?
[HS7]Sounds like we offer this for sale now - this should be something that is updated and included once we actually start selling it - is currently misleading
