  1. paid for in full at the end of the inspection period OR
  2. returned to us securely wrapped and in mint condition within 5 working days of the end of the inspection period.

Please note: In the event of goods on inspection not being retained, return postage and packing is at the school’s expense. Please retain proof of postage.

What do and what don't discounts apply to?

Where online price discounts are offered these apply to firm orders only. Inspection orders are excluded. Customers may have more than one discount per basket but only one discount per item/product.

This excludes global discounts (those that apply to all products on www.LCP.co.uk) which are available at the same time as individual product/item discounts. However, where global discounts apply (such as 10% off all online orders over £100) to goods which are already themselves discounted, the global discount applies to the discounted price paid and not the full price of the item.

In addition, where discounts are available for orders over a certain amount, this includes the cost of the goods only and does not include VAT or postage.

Discounts on this website are specific to www.LCP.co.uk A separate discount structure operates for our sister website www.Karascope.com
