Notice for Customers Wishing to Purchase Outside of the UK

 A carriage surcharge may be applied on heavy items for shipments outside of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland; customers may be informed by email or telephone as to the cost of the surcharge after the basket process if applicable; in such cases, confirmation of the surcharge will be presented by the seller and authorization from the Buyer will be required before the surcharge is applied and the items are despatched. Prices quoted and paid for internationally without tax duty are liable to the individual sovereign country's custom and excise laws and legislation, which, if applicable, are payable by the Buyer.

 EU B2C (Domestic Customer) VAT laws changed on the 1st of July 2021 for all E.U. Countries buying from the U.K. If you do not enter a valid EU VAT and EORI number in the checkout, courier VAT taxes (buyer country's current VAT rate) and clearance fees (Typically 25%) could be charged to the Buyer by customs before the receipt is possible.
 A 40% handling charge may be applied by Arc Components Limited for returned items that are returned by the courier services due to refused payments of clearance and VAT charges.

  Arc Components Ltd only ever quote the goods cost and shipping rates, not the individual country taxes payable to the courier. Those are often subject to fluctuations in the form of rates and limits/thresholds and, therefore difficult to account for in an eCommerce structure.

In cases of damaged goods in transit, the receiver must state in writing on the consignment note: "box (or package) damaged" these conditions do not affect your statutory consumer rights.
 Please note that the telesales law forbids the return of certain goods, for example, for the supply of goods made to the customer's specifications or clearly personalised or which because of their nature cannot be returned or are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly, for example, the supply of audio or video recordings or computer software if they are unsealed by the consumer, for the supply of newspapers, magazines and other tabloids.

WEEE Regulations

 The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is now U.K. law. The legislation aims to make producers pay for waste electrical equipment collection, treatment and recovery. The regulations also mean that equipment suppliers like high street shops and Internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste equipment free of charge.

 The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK. Much of the UK WEEE ends up in a landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health. Many electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items help to save our natural finite resources and reduce the environmental and health risks associated with sending electrical goods to landfills.

 Distributors of new Electric and Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites. Arc Components Limited is obliged under these regulations to offer our customers free take-back of their WEEE on a like-for-like basis when they buy a new Electrical or Electronic product from us. For example, if a customer bought a new power tool from us, we would accept their old power tool and prevent it from going into a landfill by safely disposing of it. Customers must return their WEEE item to us within 28 days of purchasing their new item.

 Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin. Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005 and should be disposed of separately from regular household waste so that they can be recycled.
