6. Product Information
All product listings, descriptions, colours, weights, and specifications are for general reference and may vary due to device differences or supplier changes. Product availability on the Site does not guarantee stock at all times.
7. Ordering & Contract Formation
How Orders Work
All product listings are invitations to treat, not offers.
- Your order is an offer to buy the listed items.
- YONEX UK accepts your order when the products are shipped (or made available for collection), forming a binding contract.
- We may decline an order for reasons such as stock unavailability, errors, payment issues, or suspected fraud.
Order Confirmation
After placing an order, you will receive an email acknowledging receipt. This is not acceptance. Acceptance occurs later as described above.
8. Pricing & Payment
- All prices are in British Pounds Sterling (GBP) and include VAT.
- Shipping charges are additional and will be shown before purchase confirmation.
- We may adjust prices prior to order acceptance.
- You authorise us to charge your chosen payment method for the full order amount.
9. Delivery
We deliver within the UK mainland to home or carrier pickup addresses.
- Delivery times are indicative, not guaranteed.
- If delivery fails, carriers may leave products at a neighbour or pickup point.
- Split deliveries may apply where reasonably necessary.
For more detailed information, please visit the Delivery & Returns Policy.
10. Returns & Withdrawal Rights
Statutory Right of Withdrawal
You may cancel a purchase within 14 calendar days from receipt of goods under UK
Distance Selling Regulations, provided the products are unused and in original condition.
How to Return
Initiate returns via the Site or our Help section. Return shipping costs may apply unless the product is faulty.
For more detailed information, please visit the Delivery & Returns Policy.
Refunds
Refunds will be issued to the original payment method within 14 days of receipt (or proof of return).
Exclusions
Certain goods are excluded from returns — e.g., personalised items or health/hygiene products if seals are opened.
Purchases from Authorised Retailers
Please note that this returns policy only applies to orders placed directly through our official website (www.yonex.co.uk).
If you purchased your Yonex equipment from an authorised retailer (such as a local pro-shop or another online store), your contract of sale is with them. In this case, you must return the item directly to that retailer, and their specific terms and conditions will apply.
We cannot process returns or refunds for items bought through third-party sellers.
11. Voluntary Return Guarantee (30-Day Returns)
In addition to statutory rights, we offer a 30-day voluntary return window for standard products where the item:
- Remains unused and undamaged beyond normal inspection;
- Is returned in its original packaging (labels intact).
We may reject returns that do not meet these conditions.
12. Defective or Damaged Goods
YONEX UK will replace or refund items found to be defective due to manufacturing faults. Wear and tear or damage from misuse are excluded.
13. Account Security
If you create an account, you are responsible for keeping your login details secure and for all activity under your account.
14. Submissions & Content
Content you post (reviews, comments) must be lawful and accurate. You grant YONEX UK a worldwide, royalty-free licence to use such content.
15. Intellectual Property
All Site content — text, images, logos, designs, and brand names (e.g., YONEX®, ISOMETRIC®, POWER CUSHION®) — is owned by YONEX UK or licensors and protected by UK and international intellectual property laws.
16. Third-Party Links
The Site may include links to third-party sites. We do not control such sites and are not responsible for their content.
17. Promotions
Promotions (such as giveaways or contests) may have separate rules. Where there is a conflict, promotion rules prevail.

To the fullest extent permitted by law:
- The Site and products are provided “as is.”
