Welcome to the Lemuel MC website a home for sustainable artisan clothing. The website is operated from our office at 49 Tyeshurst Close, SE2 0DZ, London, England. This website is wholly owned by Lemuel MC. Use of this website is governed by the terms and conditions set out below. ‘Customer’ is the person referred to as the buyer who is purchasing the goods.

1.1. Both UK and International prices are quoted in British pounds .

2. Payment
2.1. Online payment using PAYPAL or DEBIT OR CREDIT methods of payment. 

3. Retention of Title
Title of the invoiced goods will only pass to the customer once full payment of the invoice is received.

4. Delivery/Postage

4.2. Overseas - recorded delivery: conditions as above except please allow 7-10 working days for delivery.
4.3. Product unavailability will be acknowledged as soon as possible and money refunded.
4.4. Lemuel MC is not responsible for any lost order by a third party once the goods have left Lemuel MC registered premises. If the received goods are damaged, a refund or exchange will be accepted only if the goods are returned within 14 working days from the signed receipt of the goods, with the original packaging to our registered office.
4.5. Packaging - every item is gift wrapped and packed using recycled wallpaper.

5. Returned goods and cancelled orders
5.1. Lemuel MC will only accept returned goods if the customer complies with clause 5.
5.2. If the goods are defective or ordered incorrectly, the customer will receive a full refund, credit note or exchange. The goods must be returned to us before a full refund, credit note or exchange can be issued.
5.3. Lemuel MC cannot be held responsible for goods sent by a customer which are lost in transit.

5.5. All returned goods must be returned in the original packaging to ensure goods are not damaged in transit.

5.6 We are very sorry but we can’t accept returns for bespoke (i.e. customised, personalised, altered) items. If you are not fully satisfied with your bespoke item, we will try to alter it, as far as is possible, to your preference, if you contact us within 14 days of receipt. We will do our best but we can’t re-sell bespoke items so refunds would not be available.

 

6. Product acceptance
The customer shall inspect the goods and notify Lemuel MC within 14 working days from receipt of goods if there is a reason for rejection. If notification is not received within 14 working days, Lemuel MC will assume the goods are satisfactory and any rejection will not be acceptable beyond this period. This does not affect the customer’s statutory rights.

7. FREE lifetime repairs
Our clothes are designed and made to last but they’re not indestructible.
If they’re looked after there is no reason why they shouldn’t stay beautiful, and even softer, for years and years.
Clothes and accessories are meant to be worn, of course, and normal wear-and-tear does happen.
With this in mind, and as part of our commitment to sustainability, we will repair damage caused by normal wear-and-tear for FREE – all you pay is postage to us and back.
Wear-and-tear includes:

  • Loose seams.
  • Loose hems.
  • Loose poppers.
  • Broken poppers i.e. they don’t fix.
  • Unstitched pockets.
It does not include:
  • Damage beyond everyday wear-and-tear e.g. stains, cuts, burns.
  • Damage caused by not following washing instructions.
  • Most rips of the fabric itself (not the seams) – linen is tough so we’d be surprised to hear if it ripped, but please get in touch to ask if this happens.

This is not an exhaustive list and repairs will be at our discretion, but our preference is to help if possible!
7.1 Process:
If you would like to claim your repair, please get in touch with us by email to lemuel@lemuelmc.com with details of the damage. Photos will help if possible. Your email receipt will also be useful so we can trace the purchase.
We’d like to help if we can, but if we think the damage is not covered by this policy we’ll explain why within 72 hours.
If it is suitable for free repair, please send the item to us by tracked delivery. Please pack it in a way that will protect it from further damage.
Please give us two weeks from receipt to repair the item. We do not envisage it ever taking this long, but it will not take longer.
We will send back the repaired item to you by tracked delivery(you will have to cover delivery charge).
7.2 Extra conditions:
The policy only applies for items bought directly from this website. For items purchased from stockists, please check with the stockist in question. We have agreed repairs with some but not all, so please double-check with them before sending anything to us!
This policy applies for all items bought from this website from 1 January 2019 (but please get in touch if you bought an earlier item – We want to be reasonable but thought we should pick a start date!)
We are not responsible for any items lost in the post. Please send your items tracked and signed.
