Making A Purchase

Could not be easier. Just browse our store, and add any items that you wish to buy into the shopping basket. After you have finished your selection, click on ‘Shopping Cart’ and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to complete the order. Any advertised discounts will be automatically applied to your shopping cart before payment details are required.

We accept payment by credit card, debit card, or bank transfer or cheque. If you want to pay by cheque or by bank transfer, place your order online and instead of entering credit or debit card details you can choose ‘proforma invoice’ and we will email you a ‘pre-invoice’. Then, on receipt of payment, your order will be dispatched. If you wish to pay by credit card, but do not wish to pay online, simply submit your order online in the usual fashion and choose ‘proforma invoice’ as your method of payment then phone us up with the last four digits of your internet order number and your payment details.

If you have made a mistake in your order and cannot correct it in the shopping cart contact us and we will correct the mistake.

When confirmation of your order is received, this is to indicate that we have received your order. It does not indicate that a contract exists between us. We will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we send you an invoice. We have included this term to protect us in the case that a mistake has been made in pricing, we have inadvertently under-priced goods, or we are no longer able to supply a particular product for some reason. In the case of a change of price, we will always contact you first to ensure that the price is acceptable.

Shipping and Handling

The vast majority of our products are held in stock. Where possible all orders received before 1pm will be sent out the same day via APC courier. If your order has been sent with APC and you have provided an email address and mobile number when checking out, on the day of delivery you should receive an email and text message. Womag Weighing Ltd cannot be held liable for any failed deliveries due to the customer not being in to receive delivery. Please ensure that your email address and mobile phone number are entered correctly and that your spam settings do not block our emails. Womag Weighing Ltd cannot be held responsible for any emails or text messages not being received.

If there is an unforeseen problem with your order we will contact you. Please make sure you are in to receive your delivery. Re-delivery costs incurred by no-one being available to sign for the goods, or through incorrect delivery information being submitted will be passed onto the customer. Womag Weighing Ltd or the delivery organisations we use cannot be held liable for any costs or inconveniences incurred through delays to a delivery caused by adverse weather conditions. If you decide not to receive the delivery in the permissible period we reserve the right to charge a handling fee of £20 + vat to cover our administration and delivery costs, as we will not be entitled to any refund from the delivery company. We guarantee that all deliveries will be made within the published mail order guidelines of 28 days. If you have not received your order within 28 days we will cancel your order if you are not satisfied and refund you in full (this does not apply to custom orders or special order non-stock items).

Most products are available for customer collection from our warehouse in Coventry. All orders must be placed online to obtain exclusive web pricing. A small admin charge of £4.95 is applied to the total order. Please allow at least 4 working hours before collecting your order. Orders are only available for collection between 10am and 4pm Monday – Friday. We would always recommend phoning us on 024 7659 3500 prior to departure to confirm we have received and processed your order.

Please contact us immediately to report the damage. If the damage is severe then please reject the whole delivery and immediately contact us for a replacement consignment.

We also accept payment by cheque or BACS. To pay by cheque, place your order online choosing proforma invoice as your method of payment then send a cheque payable to ‘Coventry Scale Company Ltd’ to our address (see contact us). To pay by BACS place your order online choosing proforma invoice then contact us to make the payment.

Returns Policy

We sell commercial equipment and therefore any order accepted is classed as a “business to business” transaction. These transactions are not covered by public consumer law, but by business law. By ordering from Womag Weighing Ltd (either online or over the phone) you are accepting that the transaction is “business to business” and that the item ordered is being used in a business associated to you and not for personal use. We have extensive information on all our products online and recommend that you can call us before ordering to double check suitability. We have included extensive product information and in some cases demonstration videos to encourage all customers to order the correct machine for their requirements. Alternatively, we have a showroom you can visit to see goods before purchasing (please call beforehand to check item availability). Please note showroom prices may vary from some of the internet exclusive deals available.

All machines come with a twelve months manufacturer’s warranty unless stated in the product description or the customer opts out.

We strongly recommend that all original packaging and parts are retained for the warranty period, as we cannot accept machines back without their original packaging and complete as they were went sent to you.

If the product you have purchased develops a proven and accepted (by Womag Weighing Ltd) fault within the first seven days from delivery you may return it to us for a full refund excluding the carriage charge. Items with carriage included will have a set fee of £12.50 + vat deducted from the purchase price. The cost of returning the product is the responsibility of the customer. The product must be returned complete, unused, in original packaging and fully complete with any ancillary parts to obtain a full refund. Machines sent back not complete will be credited minus the cost of replacing these parts.

Items that have been ordered in error or the customer has changed their mind can also be returned, but will be subject to a 30% re-stocking fee and can only be returned within 7 days of purchase.

If an item is returned to us within the seven days as faulty we will inspect the product, if the product is found to be working correctly, the customer has the option to have the product sent back to them (an additional labour charge for inspecting the machine will be applied as will a carriage charge for returning the machine to the customer), collect the machine from us or pay the 30% re-stocking fee as described above.

Any machine wishing to be returned after 7 days for whatever reason, can only be done so with prior agreement by Womag Weighing Ltd, however we are not legally bound to do so. Any return period after the 7 days will be treated as a hire and the appropriate hire charge made for this machine and deducted from any refund or credit offered

On certain product ranges we offer a hire service where you could try the machine before you buy. But if you are unsure on the compatibility, functions or how the machine operates please feel free to call us before purchase, where we will be more than happy to answer any questions. Each machine we offer is available for demonstration, inspection or trial in our showroom in Coventry before committing to purchase.

Please report any shortages or damages within 24 hours of delivery, as we cannot rectify any problems after this period. Goods signed for as ‘Unchecked’ will be treated as being received in good condition.

Special order items are non-returnable. With this in mind please insure that you order the correct product for your requirements. The charge for programming and supporting is non-refundable under any circumstances.

Orders cancelled before the items have been dispatched will be subject to an administrative charge of £15 or 10% of purchase price, whichever is higher. This charge is to cover the bank charges on processing then refunding a card payment and to cover our admin for processing the order.
