Things To Keep In Mind with Online shops

We believe that purchasing online products should be as easy buying in a store. In fact we have done away with the need to get there, park the car and tangle with a load of other shoppers so arguably this should be easier. In all cases we endeavour to be fair to the consumer and, at a minimum, comply with all legal requirements for selling on-line.

Process of online purchase:

There are 4 step process using a secure Online Shopping, PayPal, to handle all the money stuff. You are taken from our site to a secure PayPal payment page.

Online Shopping security:

Lots of people worry about buying on-line. These days, however, it is a very straight forward and secure process, as long as you follow some basic security rules:

Don't give out your Pin number to anyone: bona-fide websites will not ask for your pin number or passwords, they will only require your credit card number, the 3-digit security number on the back of the card, the card-holder's address and the name on the card. Everything else is explained in the PayPal system itself as you go through the payment process.

Don't respond to emails requesting you to confirm card/account details: Bona-fide websites will not send you emails asking you to confirm passwords or card details.

nessiemaclay.com uses the largest industry leading card payment processor, PayPal, so that your payment details are guaranteed secure. Only PayPal verify your details, no one at nessiemaclay.com ever gets to see or access your card details.

TERMS OF ONLINE SHOPPING:

Our terms are based on the principle of do to others as you'd like done to you... bit old fashioned but we find it works :)

* If we cancel an order you won't get charged
* We try and make sure the website is trouble free, but if there are glitches please accept our apologies - the internet can be an awkward partner and does have a mind of its own sometimes.
* If anything goes wrong whilst you are ordering, you won't be charged
* All 5 steps have to be completed 100% for an order to go through.
* We will send you an email of order confirmation
* If we misprice anything then you will be charged the lower of the prices... it's a fair cop if it is our mistake.
* All our prices are in good old English pounds
* All the items on the website are in stock
* If you order something that turns out to be out of stock (perhaps 2 people ordered an item at exactly the same time) we will cancel the order and refund you any money taken from your card.
* We will always do our best to make sure you get what you ordered when we said we would deliver it. If it doesn't go to plan we will do our best to sort it out but we can't be held accountable for anything but the cost of the goods.

Delivery:

There's a delivery table and there's a price.

* The more you buy the cheaper it is per item.
* Orders over £100 are free in the UK for standard delivery (3-5 days)
* If you want it quicker it costs a bit more as we have to use a courier
* If you are lucky enough to live in Ireland or some outer Scottish island then things can cost a little more. Likewise if you live in Mauritius.
* We will always try to get post-it-for-me items sent the same day that they are received. However, please don't come after us waving a feather duster above your head if your card doesn't arrive on time. We will have tried our best..

Returns:

Let's be honest, we hate returns because they are a pain. It costs heaps to send stuff back and forth to keep our customers happy so we have a pretty standard returns policy.

* If you have to return an item because you don't like it when it arrives then you have to pay the postage back to us.
* If an item is damaged or not as described on the website then we will pick up the tab.
* To return an item it must come back as it was sent to you, i.e. with the packaging and not half eaten.
* We will credit you for returned goods as soon as we get them back, as long as they are in the same condition.
* We don't do exchanges, we prefer to cancel and refund the original order and then get you to order the replacement item. It's much simpler this way and saves confusion.

Trying to be all things to all people

Is it sectarian to ask Kevin Rudd questions about his real convictions? Does it provoke religious hatred to seek to know the difference between a socialist and Christian socialist? If it was not sectarian for Rudd to write a 5,000-word essay for The Monthly last October proclaiming the importance of his religion to his politics, how can it be sectarian to probe exactly what Rudd meant?

On the ABC's Insiders program on Sunday, Labor frontbencher Stephen Smith accused me of "making outrageous attacks on Kevin and Kevin's religion", of bringing "religion on to the floor of the parliament" and of perpetrating "the most blatant example of divisive sectarian politics that we've seen since the '50s and '60s". Making such a toxic charge is evidence of Labor's desperation to gag debate about Rudd's credibility.

For the record, I admire the fact that Rudd is a serious Christian. At the swearing-in of the new parliament in 2004, fully half of his lower house Labor colleagues chose to take an affirmation rather than an oath on the Bible. Under these circumstances, it takes guts to declare that Christianity has a role in public and private life.

For several years, to the consternation of his party's whips, Rudd was the Labor mainstay of a parliamentary prayer group that met every sitting Monday night. Late last year, Rudd joined the Prime Minister, the Deputy Prime Minister and the Treasurer in opposing the recent legislation to permit human cloning. I just wish he'd declared his position soon enough to influence his Labor colleagues' votes.

My problem is not with Rudd trying to attract more Christians into the Labor Party. My issue is Rudd's attempt to present Christianity as merely an endorsement of the ALP's present policy positions and Christians as little more than Labor activists on Sunday. Rudd's claim, articulated on Radio National in November, that "Christianity begins with a theology of social justice", is just plain wrong, as Rudd must know.

Perhaps Rudd was trying to lull his secular humanist colleagues into a false sense of security about what a Rudd-led Labor Party might do. It's more likely, however, that this was another example of Rudd's tendency to try to be all things to everyone and to hope that no one will notice.

Rudd is perfectly entitled to stress the ALP's "Christian socialist" tradition. He can tell the Australian Financial Review (as he did in 2003) that he's "an old-fashioned Christian socialist". He can tell The Age (as he did last December) that he has never "been a socialist and - never will be". What he can't credibly do is complain about being asked to explain how he can be not a socialist and a Christian socialist at the same time.

Perhaps Christian socialism is radically distinct from ordinary socialism. Or perhaps the distinctions are too subtle for those who aren't Labor true believers. Either way, it's reasonable to ask the alternative prime minister how he reconciles these apparently conflicting positions.

Rudd has described himself as an Anglican who "never resigned from Rome". None of my many friends on both sides of that great divide imagine they can straddle it. Again, it seems that Rudd is trying too hard to attract every Christian's vote.

It's not surprising, when his leader is under pressure over dealings with disgraced Labor godfather Brian Burke, that Smith should find fault in others. In politics as elsewhere, offence is usually the best defence. Still, Smith can't credibly argue that it provokes religious hatred to question the inconsistencies in his leader's position but that it's all right to declare that a Catholic should not be health minister, as Kim Beazley did in parliament last year.

Since becoming Health Minister, I have described our abortion rate as a tragedy and wondered what can be done to bring it down. The upshot of this was legislation removing the health minister's veto over the abortion drug RU486 amid a plethora of claims that a Catholic couldn't be trusted to make this decision on an ordinary rational basis. It should not have been beyond Smith's wit to realise that someone whose political prospects are thought to have been harmed by his faith would not lightly criticise a fellow MP with the capacity to make being a religiously committed politician less contentious.

As Smith should know, Rudd's problem is not his Christianity but his credibility. On the political implications of his faith, as on his now notorious series of meetings with Burke, the best way to stop the questions is to answer them.

How do you decide the deal is beneficial to you

:-

* Shop around. A “sale” price isn’t always the “best” price. Some merchants may offer a sale price on the item you want for a limited time; other merchants may offer items at a discount everyday.
* Read sale ads carefully. Some ads may say “quantities limited,” “no rain checks,” or “not available at all stores.” Before you step out the door, call to make sure the item you want is in stock.
* Consider your time and travel costs. If an item is on sale, but the store is across town, include your time and the costs of transportation and parking in the price.
* Look for price-matching policies. Some merchants will match, or even beat, a competitor’s prices.
* Go online. Check out websites that compare prices. If you decide to buy from an online merchant, keep shipping costs and delivery time in mind.
* Carefully consider bargain offers that are based on purchases of additional merchandise. For example, “Buy One, Get One Free” or “Free Gift with Purchase.” If you don’t really want or need the item, it’s not a deal.
* Clip coupons. Coupons are useful when they save you money on what you’re already planning to buy. Check coupons for any restrictions. For example, do expiration dates apply, or do you have to spend a certain amount before you can use the coupon? Some retailers will accept expired coupons, and even coupons from their competitors. Check with the retailer before you leave home to learn their policy.
* Ask about sale adjustments. If you buy an item at regular price and it goes on sale the next week, can you get a credit or refund for the discounted amount?

Things to keep in mind when by things online

1) Snorkel: Snorkel is a breathing apparatus that helps you to breath under water without letting your head up from the water surface. The optimum length of snorkels is 30 cm (12"). It can be found in various designs. Normally it is J-shaped and made of rubber or plastic. It is mainly used in surface swimming before or after scuba diving.

2) Diving Mask: The diving mask is used to allow its users to clearly see underwater. It is not possible to the divers to view under water because when human eyes are in direct contact with water the lights entering the eyes are refracted to a different angle so that it becomes almost impossible to see clearly. Diving mask provides the air space in front of the eyes. Diving mask is made of durable and tempered glass with a rubber or silicon cover, which seals it with the diver's face to make it watertight. The divers can exhale within the diving mask. The best way to find the best mask is: first place it on your face (without the strap and without holding it by your hands), inhale gently. If it doesn't fall then keep it. Otherwise try another one.

3) Fins: The fins are used to move underwater. The fins are generally made from plastics but can be found often made from carbon fiber and fiberglass. According to the needs, the size of the fins can vary. Normally the scuba divers need large and wide fins to get rid of the water resistance to freely move.

4) Diving Suits: The diving suits provide the protection to the divers from the water atmosphere. There are different kinds of diving suits such as wetsuits, drysuits, semi-dry suits, dive skins and hot water suits. The diving suits should be chosen depending on the water temperature. Wetsuits provide the thermal insulation to the divers but they get wet. It is mainly used where the temperature is lying between 10 deg C to 25 deg C. Where the water temperature is between -2 deg C to 15 deg C it would be better to use the drysuits. The diver's body remains dry as it seals the body by neck and wrist. No water can enter through the dry suits. The diving suits are found in all sizes, so, it would be better to try which one fits you best.

5) Regulator: Regulator carries the air for breathing. It is a very important accessory at the time of the deep diving. This should have a second hose that is used for breathing out. Regulator is also connected with the buoyancy compensator.

6) Buoyancy compensator: The buoyancy compensator provides the life saving buoyancy both underwater and on the surface. This is essential to neutral the buoyancy. The diver has to choose which one should be taken according to his needs.

7) Watch: It is very much necessary to measure the depth and time while diving. It is better to have a computer rather than the watch. But you should consider carefully whether to bye a watch or a computer. The ultimate decision is yours.
