11.3. For your collection Order, if confirmed by you, then we will endeavour to provide you with a substitute Product where the price for that substitute Product is of equal or greater value than the Product you selected. If so, then we will charge you the price of the Product you ordered rather than the price of the substitute Product.
11.4. If there are items missing from your collection, then you should check the receipt that we provided to you to determine if the missing Product is marked as out of stock. If so, then we will provide you with a refund to your card of purchase or coupon for the Products that were not supplied.
