Product illustrations are only ever intended as a guide and may not be identical to the actual supplied goods, as the manufacturers may modify their products without notice. Some products will have to be assembled. If a customer would like to ensure that a product has a particular feature or purpose that is not advertised in the description they are expected to contact our company.
Unfortunately, Inthemarket.ie cannot guarantee that every description will be correct or complete. If a customer feels that a product’s description or picture is inaccurate or misleading, then they are expected to let our company know of their concerns, and we will do our best to correct it.
Inthemarket.ie reserves the right to make any changes to an item’s description or illustration at any time, without notice.
2.1 General Acceptance
The acceptance of an order and the contract of sale will only ever be finalised upon notification of dispatch, which will be confirmed in the format of an e-mail, unless the purchase is made on site where we will notify the customer of delivery if the company is delivering it directly or the customer will be contacted directly by the designated third party courier. The contract of sale will only then be deemed as legally binding.
The acceptance will be deemed, for all purposes, to have been effectively communicated to our customers at the precise time Inthemarket.ie forwards a dispatch e-mail or presents or emails the customer with a receipt on site. Inthemarket.ie is not liable for customers failing to receive this e-mail, or if the customer says that they do not want a receipt, on site; therefore, it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that their e-mail address is correctly logged/provided upon checkout.
Inthemarket.ie is entitled to take payment of an order, prior to the acceptance and the finalisation of a contract. The removal or the earmarking of funds does not indicate our company’s acceptance to commence contractual relations.
Occasionally technical errors do occur, and Inthemarket.ie reserves the right to cancel any transaction in which a product has been sold at an incorrect value and or amount.
Only one voucher can be used in the same transaction. Each coupon is valid for a limited time only and expires on the date specified. Coupons are not available for all products.
2.2 Acceptance of a Customised or Personalised Order
Any order that contains personalised, customised, custom fit or any other type of product where an adjustment has been made, must be placed online. As all orders are placed online it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that their design/modification is correct prior to creation, and Inthemarket.ie cannot be responsible for any error that the customer may have made. Only text and graphics maybe used to customise goods, not symbols.
Inthemarket.ie reserves the right to alter, adjust, modify, resize, crop or re-colour any image or text submitted to personalise an item. The modification will only ever be to improve the quality of the product. Inthemarket.ie retains the right to not customise any product if it does not wish to.
3.1 General Information
Inthemarket.ie works in partnership with third-party couriers such as NHL Logistics, DHL, DPD and Fastway, as well as others. Our company has the discretion to send a customer’s parcel via any method, so long as it complies with our contractual obligations. Please be aware that only kerbside deliveries are available for large items such as big treadmills and spin bikes. These cannot be carried by DPD, Fastway etc. They will arrive on pallets and the courier will need to have sufficient space to offload. Please make sure before delivery that the driver will be able to enter the property or arrange for delivery at an alternate address. Drivers are not insured to enter any premises or bring items inside a building such as a garage or outhouse or to carry items up stairs.
Parcels are dispatched from our warehouses Monday to Friday, within the working hours of 9am to 5:30pm. The delivery of an order will always occur on a weekday, Monday to Friday, unless one of our courier partners offers a Saturday delivery, such as DPD, in some areas. Please note our couriers do not deliver on a Sundays or on Bank Holidays or National Holidays.
A customer of Inthemarket.ie is expected to sign for the goods how they receive them or authorise over the phone, where the facility is present for this to occur, therefore if a customer has not opened the box to check the contents inside they are expected to sign for the goods, or accept them as unchecked. Equally if the packaging is damaged, they are expected to sign for the delivery, or accept without a signature which is accepting them, as so, and upon inspecting the goods, if they are damaged they are expected to follow our company procedures as explained in paragraph 3.8. for communicating with us about an issue.
If the facility to take a signature is not available to the courier/delivery person, taking the product whether it is left on your premises if you are not home/at the specified delivery address, when delivered, or brought to your door is seen as acceptance of the product.
3.2
*A signature is usually required on receipt of the goods. If the facility is not available for a signature, acceptance of the item(s) is seen as acceptance, or if the item(s) is left on site and we are not asked to take it back within 14 days of the sale.
(Inthemarket.ie retains the discretion, to refuse Saturday deliveries without notice)
3.3 Delivery Failure or Non-Delivery
Our courier will attempt delivery, and if unsuccessful, will leave a calling card informing the customer of their attempt. Alternatively, they will attempt to phone call the customer in advance of delivery. Our company advises our customers’ to follow the instructions on the card, and if necessary our customers’ may contact our company in order to re-arrange delivery or resolve any problems they may have experienced. We do recommend that our customers contact the courier company directly, prior to calling our own Shipping Department, as our powers are limited once the parcel is in the courier’s possession.
If a customer does not respond to the calling card within five working days, the parcel(s) will be returned to our warehouse and the customer will be liable for all postage/return costs. If the customer has not received a phone call or a calling card by the last day, of the expected delivery dates, the customer is responsible for informing our company of this, to avoid the parcel(s) being returned. If the customer has not contacted us within this period, they may be liable for postage/delivery costs.

7.4 Product Reviews
We publish a selection of reviews on our products. These product reviews are there to help customers make informed buying decisions. However, we do not publish all reviews, and reserve the right not to publish any given review, without reason.
Common reasons for not publishing a review include:
· Inappropriate language such as swear words
· Rating the product based on shipping or customer service issues. We want to encourage reviews on the products themselves, and whilst we agree it’s an important part of a buying decision, since different products will ship with different couriers, it isn’t a consistent criteria. Equally, if you’ve had a bad customer service experience, this is specific to your particular order, rather than the product itself.
·Bad spelling/grammar – if we can’t easily understand the gist of what you are saying, we may not publish the review
· Mentions of competitors
· Mentions of a different product to the one you are reviewing – in most cases this confuses the review when taken out of context, although a like-for-like comparison is acceptable
· Specific price information – our prices are constantly changing, of course mention whether it is good value or not, but not a specific price
· Product not received or product ordered incorrectly – if you’ve not received the product you meant to buy, the review you leave can’t be a fair assessment of it
· Reviews that don’t add anything – the reviews are here to help customers make good buying decisions. If a review of a green shirt is “this shirt is green”, that doesn’t add, whereas “a very bright green” adds more information

What do I do if I am getting static shocks from my treadmill?
It’s a common question, with a simple answer. Static electricity build-up can be an annoyance for a treadmill owner. Fortunately, there are preventative measures you can take to reduce the occasional zap when your skin makes contact with the frame. These tips can also be applied to elliptical trainers and other home fitness equipment to reduce the risk of static.
1 PUT A MAT UNDER YOUR TREADMILL
A treadmill mat will help eliminate a lot of treadmill static and is an effective counter-measure. There’s an added bonus to placing a rubber mat under your treadmill as well: it will help keep your motor compartment free of dust and debris. The static charge will also act as a vacuum of sorts; carpet fibers, pet hair, dirt and dust will get sucked up into the motor compartment, clog up the inner-workings and damage the treadmill. By placing a mat under the treadmill, you are not only reducing the static electricity, you are also protecting your motor and lower electronics board from and keeping it clean. Inthemarket.ie sell these mats and they can be added to your order.
2-PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU ARE WEARING
Whenever at all possible, work out with clothing made of natural fibers, such as cotton. They are less likely to generate static. Synthetic materials like polyester and nylon will build up a significantly higher static charge. Your clothing can cause significant static buildup. Try wearing all natural fabrics like cotton while you run on your treadmill. You will find that it helps with static shock and is more breathable and comfortable during your workout.
3. COMPENSATE FOR DRY AIR
A lot of people buy a treadmill for the home because in the winter months, they aren’t able run, jog or walk outside due to the inclement weather. In the winter, the air is much drier. You are more likely to get shocked by static electricity when there is little moisture in the air. Try putting a humidifier in the same room as the treadmill and set the humidity level to 50%. You should see a difference shortly.
4 PERFORM ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Your treadmill has moving parts and wear-items and requires regular maintenance. Check you owner’s manual and follow the instructions for lubrication, belt adjustment and cleaning. Do not underestimate the importance of cleaning your fitness equipment.
5 YOU’VE GOT THE POWER
For optimal performance, as well as safety and to avoid electric shocks, you want to make sure the treadmill is on a dedicated power source with a ground wire. What this means, is the treadmill should be plugged directly into the wall receptacle, leading directly back to the circuit breaker, and no other electronics should be on that line. It should be a minimum of 15 amps (20 is optimal).
OTHER NOTES ABOUT POWER
What you don’t want to do, is use extension cords, surge protectors, power strips or ground adapters. Your treadmill has a motor controller that sends a series of high and low pulses that increase and decrease the voltage to the motor. This is not simply for speed changes. When you plant your foot on the treadmill, you are applying resistance to the motor turning the belt. The motor controller compensates for this by increasing the voltage when you plant your foot. This is what gives you a smooth follow through as you plant, and then push off. Power conditioners and surge protectors can interfere with the efficiency of this design.
If you have Arc-Fault breakers (AFCI) your treadmill will not function properly. Because the motor controller is constantly sending a series of ON/OFF pulses, an AFCI breaker will think that it is detecting an electric arc, and it will break the circuit, because that is what it is designed to do. If you have AFCI breakers in your home, you will want to consult with an electrician before you install your treadmill.
If you absolutely must use an extension cord, go to a hardware store and purchase an extension cord that is rated and approved for appliances, and use the shortest cord you possible can.
WIRELESS INTERFERENCE
Hopefully you are monitoring your heart rate when you exercise, and all Inthemarket.ie treadmills have features for doing so. These features that offer heart rate monitoring signals are regulated by the FCC to not interfere with any other electronic signal. What this means, is you want to place the treadmill at least six feet away from anything giving off an electronic signal. Anything and everything could possibly interfere with telemetry heart rate signals, even a lamp!
HOMEMADE SOLUTIONS TO TREADMILL STATIC
There are several other homemade solutions out there, like using fabric softener or anti static spray.
1. Fabric Softener: Some clients tell us that wiping the treadmill belt with fabric softener helps to reduce static while running on their treadmills.
2. Anti-static spray: We’ve heard that spraying anti-static spray on the area surrounding the treadmill may also help stop static.
3. Ventilation: We also recommend increasing airflow in the area.
