  1. Basis of contract

    • These Conditions apply to the Contract to the exclusion of any other terms that the Customer seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by law, trade custom, practice or course of dealing.
    • The Order constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase the Goods in accordance with these Conditions. The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the terms of the Order and any applicable Specification are complete and accurate.
    • The Order shall only be deemed to be accepted when the Supplier issues a written acceptance of the Order, at which point the Contract shall come into existence.

They shall not form part of the Contract nor have any contractual force.

  2. Basis of contract

    • If the Supplier fails to deliver the Goods, its liability shall be limited to the costs and expenses incurred by the Customer in obtaining replacement goods of similar description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the price of the Goods.

      • any request by the Customer to change the delivery date(s), quantities or types of Goods ordered, or the Specification; or
      • any delay caused by any instructions of the Customer or failure of the Customer to give the Supplier adequate or accurate information or instructions.
    • The price of the Goods:
      • excludes amounts in respect of value added tax (VAT), which the Customer shall additionally be liable to pay to the Supplier at the prevailing rate, subject to the receipt of a valid VAT invoice; and
      • excludes the costs and charges of packaging, insurance and transport of the Goods, which shall be invoiced to the Customer; and
