4. Delivery

4.1 When ordering Subscriptions from the Site for delivery overseas the Customer may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the package reaches the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the Customer; the Company has no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so the Customer should contact its local customs office for further information. Additionally, please note that when ordering from the Site, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which the Subscriptions are received. We would like our international Customer to be aware that cross-border deliveries are subject to opening and inspection by customs authorities.

4.2 Typically, the Company will commence the Subscriptions within three weeks of receiving payment. Sports Spectrum magazine is a quarterly publication with issues being printed and fulfilled in or around March, June, September, and December. Processing and shipping may result in a delay of initial Magazine of 2-4 weeks from the purchase date.

4.3 The Company’s liability to you in the event of issues of your Subscriptions being lost in the post shall be limited to the replacement of the missing issues of your Subscription(s).

4.4 Notwithstanding clause 4.2 above delivery dates are estimates only and time of delivery is not of the essence. We will deliver the magazines to the address you notify to us when you place your order. You agree that we will not be responsible for failure to deliver the magazines if you have supplied us with an incorrect address. We reserve the right to dispose of incorrectly addressed envelopes and their contents without an obligation to refund you or any other person if they are returned to us and despite efforts to contact you we do not receive correct address details.
