WEBSITE PURCHASES
Some of our products are available in voucher format and therefore incur no postage charges. You will be given the choice
should all your purchases be available in voucher format to receive hard tickets or vouchers via e-mail. If you live outside
the UK and your purchases are all available in voucher format, you will only be offered the voucher format. Once you have
made your purchase, the prices cannot be changed. Your payment is redirected via a secure website and therefore safe. Items
which cannot be purchased directly on the website will be treated with equal speed and availability checked immediately.
WEBSITE AND PRICE ACCURACY
Whilst we make every effort for the description of our products to be accurate, information and prices may be amended because
of changes made by suppliers, currency fluctuation or error. Prices will not be increased if you have already made a booking

the Euro rate of £ 0.77. Special events - tariffs may increase during some important exhibitions. Rates on request.

accordingly by your agent or automatically when purchasing on the website. Note: you have the opportunity to have your items
sent by special delivery for items under £ 49. Should you wish not to choose this option, we cannot be held responsible for
the possible non arrival of the tickets. Should you have chosen the £ 2 option and the tickets do not arrive, you can
purchase the same tickets on arrival in Paris and let us have your used tickets and receipts for refund. We will not send
