Restriction of sale (18+)

This site will only accept purchases from customers legally declared over 18 years of age. It is an offence to be under 18 and purchase items that are restricted - it is an offence to purchase them and have them in your possession - therefore you must be over 18 Years of age. We reserve the right to check any age declaration and take very seriously any person attempting to circumnavigate the law. You must legally be over the age of 18 to hold a Paypal account - as per Paypal's terms and conditions and we use Paypal as our clearing broker.
