4.6.3      If we are satisfied that the Item(s) is a forgery, we will rescind the sale and refund you the price paid for the Item(s), save that in the event you did not notify us of your suspicions in sufficient time for us to prevent payment for the Item(s) being passed to the vendor of the Item(s), we cannot refund you the price paid for the Item(s) and we shall have no further liability to you.

If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.
