15. Purelyhealthdirect.co.uk
has made every effort to reproduce colours on the site as accurately as
possible. However, different computers reproduce colours in slightly different
ways, and so exact colour matches are not yet possible over the Internet.
This means that when you order products from

see on the screen.
If you are not satisfied with the colour of
the item you have ordered, we operate a returns policy as detailed in
clause 14 above.
16. Purelyhealthdirect.co.uk
has taken great care to ensure prices are accurate. Prices may change
over time, so if you use your shopping list within 'My account' as a way
of re-ordering items, prices on your previous order may no longer be valid.
However, the correct prices will be applied when you select an item from
the shopping list and add to your current basket. All prices include VAT
where appropriate. Promotions and prices you see in Purely Health Direct
advertising and marketing may not apply to purelyhealthdirect.co.uk, and
vice versa.

constantly changing and the way the internet and your computer works,

piece of information on our Website is true, accurate or up to date at
all times.
