Business Information

History/background
The Powell family has been trading in Maldon since 1974 and we are now operating from our large store and garden centre at 85 - 87 High Street in Maldon, a picturesque, riverside town in an attractive corner of rural Essex. A family run business you can trust, The Emporium is Maldon's largest independent High Street retailer selling a wide range of quality items at competitive prices, including furniture, homeware, gifts, pet and garden products. Our customers call us an Aladdin's Cave because of the huge stock of different products which change daily, weekly, monthly and seasonally! Whilst the style of our store is deliberately old-fashioned in line with the appearance of Maldon's traditional High Street, the Powell family maintains a range of the latest products available. Graham and Mary Powell visit all major UK trade shows each year to keep abreast of new product developments and to ensure that we are able to present our customers with a constantly evolving range of goods.

Payment policy
We accept all major payment methods, including: paypal, credit / debit cards over the phone, cheques, postal orders and cash.

Delivery information
We try to hold all stocks in our warehouse so you can rely on rapid shipping of your purchases. We aim to despatch orders within two business days of payment being received but more often than not goods are despatched within one working day!

Return policy
If you change your mind, or the purchase is not suitable, you may return it to us within 7 days of receipt, providing the item is in a re-saleable condition. Return posting costs will be at your expense. If, by chance, you receive a damaged or faulty item we will replace or refund. You are required to contact us first for further assistance and we may require photo evidence of the damage or fault. If we decide that a damaged or faulty item needs to be returned to us we will provide you with a freepost returns label, (we will advise you of this beforehand). NOTE: If a refund is required then we require you to use the eBay resolution centre to process the return and refund. The 'Return this item' link is displayed on the View Item page and in My eBay ('Won' view).
