5.3 What happens if We got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products We sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where a Product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, We will charge the lower amount. If the Product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to You, We will contact You for your instructions before We accept your order. If We accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by You as a mispricing, We may end the Contract, refund You any sums You have paid and require the return of any Products provided to You.
