• flex/m £4.00 (inc VAT)
• chain/m £2.00 (inc VAT)
• light hook 80p each (inc VAT)
• ceiling hook £8.00 each (inc VAT)

Where this wear and tear is deemed by us to be beyond reasonable limits we shall describe the damage within the product description and add close-up photographs of the areas of damage. All our reclaimed lights are sold as seen on this website (we are happy to supply further photos if requested).
2.5 All electrical work should be carried out by a qualified electrician and electrical safety is the responsibility of the buyer.
