The Hirer accepts that these conditions shall govern relations between him and the shop to the exclusion of any other terms including, without limitation, conditions and warranties written or oral express or implied even if contained in any of the Hirers documents which purports to provide that the Hirer‚¬„¢s own terms shall prevail.

   2. Where a quotation is given dependant on information supplied by the Hirer, the Hirer will be responsible for the accuracy of the information given and for the supply of all relevant particulars, including but without limitation to, measurements and sizes. Any increased cost incurred as a result of any inaccuracy or omission shall be borne by the Hirer alone and shall be paid promptly upon presentation of the shops invoice.

4. PERFORMANCE
   
   The shop will use its reasonable commercial endeavours to ensure that goods ordered are available for delivery in accordance with clause 4 on the date specified in any quotation or acknowledgement of receipt of order. However it will not be liable for any loss suffered by the Hirer as a result of default in delivery as a result of circumstances outside the shops reasonable control including but without limitation to the non return or damage of the goods by another hirer. In the event that the goods have not been collected by or on behalf of the Hirer or by a carrier for dispatch to the Hirer by 6:30PM on the date of delivery specified in any quotation or acknowledgment of order by the shop then the shop reserves the right to hire the goods to any other person and shall not be liable to the Hirer for any loss suffered as a result of such hiring of goods. The shop shall not be liable for any delay or failure in carrying out its obligations which is caused wholly or partly by reason of Acts of God, delay in transportation, labour disputes, fire, flood, war, accident, Government action or any other cause beyond the shops control or that of its servants or agents.

3. PAYMENT AND DEPOSIT
   
   Unless expressly agreed in writing, payment shall be made in Sterling upon collection of the goods and additionally the shop will require the Hirer to leave a deposit which will be refundable upon return of the goods provided that the shop will be entitled to make a deduction from the deposit to reasonably reflect the cost of rectifying any damage suffered by the goods whilst in the Hirer‚¬„¢s control. The deposit does not necessarily reflect the value of the costume therefore if the costume is lost or stolen or not returned the shop will be entitled to recover the full cost of the costume over and above the deposit. The shop also reserves the right to deduct ten pounds for each day the Hirer retains the goods after the date of return specified in the shops receipt or the deposit paid by the Hirer. In cases of non-return of the goods, four days after the date of return the shop reserves the right to retain the entire deposit but without prejudice to any other rights the shop may have against the Hirer.

3. PROPERTY IN THE GOODS
   
   The property in the goods shall in no circumstance pass to the Hirer and the Hirer shall keep the goods as bailey for the shop.

3. HIRER‚¬„¢S OBLIGATION TO KEEP THE GOODS CLEAN
   
   The Hirer undertakes to use his best endeavours to preserve and protect the goods and to return the goods to the shop on the return date specified in writing on the Contract receipt supplied by the shop in the same condition as when they were delivered by the Hirer.

3. LIMITATION OF THE SHOPS LIABILITY
   
   The shop shall in no circumstance be liable for any loss or damage in excess of the sum of the contract price and the deposit in this limitation will apply in the case of a breach of a fundamental term or repudiation by the shop.

4. Hence sending items back by recorded delivery lowers the risk of loosing any deposit by the hirer.

3. LAW AND INTERPRETATION
   
   This contract shall be governed by English law and the Hirer shall submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts. If any of these conditions or any part thereof is inferred void or unenforceable by legislation including the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 or by any other rule of law it shall be void and unenforceable to that extent and no further.
