We reserve the right in our absolute discretion to make any changes to the Goods which do not in our opinion materially affect the quality or nature of the Goods.

 

6    PRICE AND PAYMENT

6.1    The prices displayed on the Website and in any catalogue or price list are in pounds sterling (unless otherwise stated) and are exclusive of VAT and other similar sales taxes and do not include packaging and delivery charges.  These will be added to the total amount payable by you and will be shown when you make an Order.
6.2    Where Goods are specially ordered from manufacturers, and a carriage charge is made by such manufacturers, we reserve the right to recover this charge from you in addition to any other charges.  You will also pay any additional charges incurred as a result of delivery by any particular method you may request (but we shall be under no obligation to comply with any such request).
6.3    We reserve the right to levy a handling charge on any orders, the total invoice price of which (excluding VAT) is less than our small order value from time to time.  Details of our small order value are available from the Trade Counter from time to time.
6.4    We may request a sum to be paid in advance.  Any advance payment made by you at our request shall be held by us as a deposit and not as a part payment.  Any deposit is non-refundable in the event of you cancelling the Order, or us cancelling the Order as a result of your default.

(b)    charge you interest on such sum from the due date for payment at the annual rate of 4% above the base rate of National Westminster Bank plc from time to time accruing on a daily basis and compounded monthly until payment is made, whether before or after any judgment.
We may exercise this right in addition to any other rights we may have.
6.10    In the event of termination, variation or suspension of a Contract on your instruction or by lack of instruction, the Price will be adjusted to reflect the additional costs incurred by us.  Where a Price per unit has been quoted and you require a smaller number of units to be delivered than those quoted for, we reserve the right to adjust the Price per unit applicable.

 

7    DELIVERY & RISK

7.1    We shall only deliver Goods to an address in mainland England, Scotland or Wales. You shall provide a delivery address within mainland England, Scotland or Wales or another address we may agree in writing.
7.2    We will advise you of any applicable delivery charge.
7.3    We will deliver the Goods to the address specified by you in your Order unless we have agreed to make them available for collection from the Trade Counter.
7.4    If you fail to take delivery of the Goods on the date notified to you by us, or fail to provide any instructions or authorisations required to enable Goods to be delivered on time, the Goods will be deemed to have been delivered, and risk in the Goods will pass to you on the delivery date and (without prejudice to any other rights we may have) we may:

(a)    store the Goods until actual delivery or sale and charge you for all related costs and expenses (including, without limitation, transportation, handling, storage and insurance); and/or
(b)    charge you any increase in the Company’s list price for the Goods between the deemed delivery date and the date on which you take physical delivery of the Goods; and/or
(c)    following written notice to you, sell any of the Goods at the best price reasonably obtainable in the circumstances and charge you for any shortfall below the price agreed with you in addition to being entitled to recover the costs of the sale and the costs described in Condition 7.4 (a) of Part I.

7.5    We will endeavour to deliver the Goods to you in accordance with any despatch date notified to you, or, if none is specified, within seven (7) Working Days of you placing the Order with us or such alternative later date specified by you in your Order but you acknowledge that it may not always be possible to deliver the Goods within this timeframe and you agree that delivery of the Goods may take longer. Any dates or times for delivery of the Goods quoted by us are estimates only. We shall not be liable if the Goods are not delivered within seven (7) Working Days or for any failure to meet any estimated delivery date or for any costs, charges, liquidated damages or other penalties incurred by you or expenses incurred as a result of any delay.  You will not be entitled to refuse to accept any Goods or to cancel the Contract with us merely because of such failure unless any delay exceeds 180 days.
7.6    We shall be entitled to deliver in instalments.  Where the Contract is to be or may be fulfilled in separate instalments, deliveries or parts, payment for each such instalment delivery or part will be made as if the same constituted a separate contract. Failure by you to pay for an instalment in accordance with this Condition will entitle us without prejudice to our other rights and remedies to suspend further deliveries of goods under any other contract we have with you, pending payment by you.
7.7    Failure by us to deliver any one or more (but not all) instalments in accordance with these Conditions will not entitle you to treat the Contract as repudiated.

(c)    at the time the Goods are unloaded by our carrier or agent where transportation is arranged by us.

7.9    Whether we or you arrange for the goods to be transported, the carrier shall be deemed to be your agent except for the purposes of sections 44, 45 and 46 of the Sales of Goods Act 1979.
7.10    Subject to Condition 12 of Part I, we shall not replace any lost or damaged Goods after delivery.

 

8    PACKAGING

8.2    We may impose additional charges in respect of packaging we use for transportation and delivery of the Goods.  Any such charges will be added to the Order and will be shown when you make an Order.  For the avoidance of doubt, you agree that such additional charges will be levied in respect of Goods which are despatched in crates, drums, cases, pallets or other similar packaging and may be levied at our discretion in the case of any other packaging. We shall also make a charge for carrier bags issued as required by applicable legislation.
8.3    Where we charge for packaging pursuant to Condition 8.2 of Part I, unless otherwise specified by us, you will be entitled to a full credit for such additional charges, to be credited against subsequent invoices, so long as such packaging is returned undamaged to us carriage paid within 14 days of the date of the delivery of the Goods.

 

9    RETENTION OF TITLE

9.1    Ownership of the Goods will not pass to you until we have received in full (in cash or cleared funds) all sums due to us in respect of the Goods and all other sums which are or which become due to us from you on any account.
9.2    Until ownership of the Goods has passed to you, you must:

(a)    hold the Goods on a fiduciary basis as our bailee;
(b)    store the Goods (at your own cost) separately from all other goods owned by you or any third party so that they are identifiable as our property and clearly labelled as such;
(c)    not destroy, deface or obscure any identifying mark or packaging on or relating to the Goods;
(d)    maintain the Goods in satisfactory condition insured on our behalf for their full Price against all risks without any deductible to our reasonable satisfaction. On request you will produce evidence of the policy of insurance to us;
(e)    hold any proceeds of such insurance on trust for us separately from any other money, and not pay the proceeds into an overdrawn bank account or allow any such bank account to become overdrawn; and
(f)    allow us access at any reasonable time to enable us to inspect the Goods and verify that you have complied with your obligations under this Condition 9.2 of Part I.

9.3    You may resell the Goods before ownership has passed to you provided such sale is:

(a)    in the ordinary course of your business at full market value and you will account to us accordingly; and
(b)    on your own behalf and you deal as principal when making such sale.

9.4    If we cannot determine which goods are the Goods, you will be deemed to have sold all Goods sold by us to you in the order in which they were invoiced to you.
9.5    We will be entitled to recover payment for the Goods notwithstanding that ownership of any Goods has not passed from us.
9.6    We may while we are the owner of the Goods (and without prejudice to any other rights we may have under these Conditions) demand the immediate return of the Goods at any time and you will forthwith comply with such demand and bear the expenses for such return.

10    DUPLICATION OF ORDERS

Where Orders are sent by post, fax, email or submitted via a Website in confirmation of a telephone order, you must ensure that they are clearly marked as such, failing which any such confirmation will be treated as a separate Order and you will be obliged to pay for the Goods ordered by each means.

 

11    QUALITY

11.1    You acknowledge that we are not the manufacturer of the Goods. Consequently, subject to Condition 14 of Part I, we will in the event of a Goods quality issue only apply our reasonable endeavours to:

(a)    transfer to you the benefit of any warranty or guarantee given to us in respect of the Goods, if requested by you, at your expense; or
(b)    make and pursue any available claim under the terms of any warranty or guarantee as mentioned in Condition 11.1(a) of Part I, subject to you paying all costs and expenses incurred on an indemnity basis in advance of them being incurred, and providing us with such security as we may in our absolute discretion require in respect of the defendant’s costs that may become payable should we lose any dispute.  In the event of a claim being made, we will promptly account to you (to the extent of your claim and subject to the deduction of an amount equal to any costs incurred in making and pursuing such claim which you have not already paid) for any proceeds resulting to you.

11.2    The Goods are not sold by description or sample.

Goods received in a damaged or unsatisfactory condition must be signed for as such and the packaging and contents must be retained for inspection, failure to do so will invalidate any claim.
12.3    Subject to Condition 12.2 of Part I and only as far as the law permits our total liability for short delivery, loss or damage to the Goods prior to delivery, or non-delivery of the Goods, shall be limited to (in each case at our discretion) repairing or replacing free of charge Goods within a reasonable time, or refunding the Price at the pro rata Contract rate.

 

13    RETURNS

13.1    Goods correctly supplied may not be returned without our written agreement.
13.2    If Goods have been supplied other than in accordance with these Conditions, they must be rejected within 3 days of delivery (or deemed delivery), otherwise they will be deemed to have been accepted and have been supplied in accordance with these Conditions.

13.4    If returned Goods had been correctly supplied then Goods may only be returned at the sole discretion and with the prior consent of the Company. The Company may impose a restocking charge.  You agree to pay this charge in accordance with our invoice for it immediately on demand.  We may decide whether to issue a Credit Note or refund, in our absolute discretion.
13.5    If you paid for the Goods by UK credit card or debit card, and a refund is due as a result of the Goods being rejected in accordance with Condition 13.2 of Part I, we shall make a refund to the same UK credit card or debit card used for payment so please ensure that you bring the credit card or debit card with you when you return the Goods to the Trade Counter from which you collected the Goods.

You should review the Order and correct any incorrect details before pressing the ”Confirm” button.
2.4    We shall acknowledge receipt of your Order with an acknowledgment email. This is not an order confirmation or an order acceptance by us.
2.5    The Order shall only be accepted by us when we send a confirmation email to you from us when we dispatch the Goods or make them available for collection which shall create a Contract which is subject to these Conditions.  The date of the Contract shall be the date on which we issue the confirmation email if any.
2.6    We may list availability information for Goods sold by us on the Website, including throughout the Order process but cannot guarantee the availability of Goods listed on the Website.  Please note that dispatch estimates are only estimates and they are not guaranteed dispatch times and should not be relied upon as such.
2.7    Where Goods are listed as being currently unavailable you may still place an Order for these Goods and we shall send you a confirmation email when the goods become available and we are in a position to accept your Order and dispatch the Goods to you.
2.8    Acknowledgement of your Order is not a guarantee by us of the availability of the Goods.
2.9    If you receive an acknowledgment email or confirmation email for an Order which you did not place, or if the details in the acknowledgment email or confirmation email do not match the Order which you placed, you must contact our customer services department detailed on the Website to cancel the Order or correct the details.

 

3    PRICE AND PAYMENT

3.1    Our Website contains a large number of Goods and it is always possible that some of the Goods listed on our Website may be incorrectly priced. Where Goods have been incorrectly priced we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Goods, or reject your Order and notify you of such rejection. For the avoidance of doubt, we are under no obligation to supply the Goods at the incorrect price.
3.2    In certain cases, prices for Goods are calculated to more than two decimal places. However, for the purpose of the Website these prices are either rounded up or down in order that the prices can be presented in pounds and pence.  Please note that where you purchase multiple Goods, the total price shown when you make an Order shall be calculated on the basis of the original figures before they are rounded up or down and not on the prices displayed on the Website.
3.3    Payment must be made in pounds sterling and can be made by using any major UK credit card or debit card shown on the Website.
3.4    Payment by any UK credit card or debit card is subject to authorisation by the credit card issuer when the Order is placed.  If such authorisation is refused to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery of the Goods and the Contract will be deemed to be cancelled.
3.5    If payment is made by UK credit card or debit card, the card will be debited when your Order is dispatched or the Goods are made available for collection.
3.6    The prices quoted on our Website are unique to the Website and may be more or less than the prices quoted for the same goods at the Trade Counter. We shall not be under any obligation to sell Goods at the Trade Counter at the same price as that quoted on our Website or vice versa.

 

4    DELIVERY AND RISK

If we agree to permit you to collect the Goods from our Trade Counter then delivery will be deemed to take place when we send you a confirmation email notifying you that the Goods are ready for collection and unless otherwise agreed in writing you will collect the Goods within seven (7) Working Days of the date we sent you such email.
