8.2           Unless   otherwise agreed by the seller and the buyer in writing, delivery of the   goods shall be made by the seller, delivering the goods to such place as may   be notified by the buyer.

8.4           The   good may be delivered by the seller in advance of the quoted delivery time   upon giving reasonable notice to the buyer.

     

8.5           Where   the goods are to be delivered in instalments each delivery shall constitute a   separate contract  (into which these conditions are incorporated) and   failure by the seller to deliver any one or more of the instalments in   accordance with these conditions or any claim by the buyer in respect of any   one or more instalments shall not entitle the buyer to treat the contract as   a whole as repudiated.

     

8.6           If   the buyer fails to take delivery of the goods when agreed by the seller and   the buyer, the seller may store the goods until actual delivery and charge   the buyer for the costs (including insurance) thereof or (at the seller’s   option) sell the goods at the best price readily obtainable and (after   deducting all reasonable storage and selling expenses) account to the buyer   for the excess of the sale proceeds over the price agreed between the seller   and the buyer for the goods, or charge the buyer for any shortfall of the   proceeds below such price.

9.   Warranties
      THE BUYER’S ATTENTION IS DRAWN IN PARTICULAR TO THE   PROVISIONS OF THIS CONDITION 9.

     

9.1           The   seller itself gives no undertaking or guarantee in respect of the   description, quality or fitness for purpose of the goods and all warranties,   conditions and other terms implied by statue or common law are excluded to   the fullest extent permitted by law. Although the seller shall be under no   obligation to replace or refund the purchase price of any goods which are   proved to be defective in workmanship or materials (but, may at its entire   discretion, consider any claim in respect thereof from the buyer), the seller   does however undertake that, in the event that any defect in workmanship or   materials is notified to it in accordance with the claims procedure set out   in condition 14 below, it will use its best endeavours to secure recompense   from its own supplier in respect thereof and it will endeavour to pass on to   the buyer the benefit of any guarantees or indemnities given to it in respect   thereof by its supplier.

     

9.2           In   the event that, notwithstanding the above, the seller is found liable for any   loss or damage suffered by the buyer, its liability shall in no event exceed   the price of the goods and, without prejudice to the above, shall not be   liable for any indirect or consequential loss whatsoever.

     

9.3           The   foregoing provisions shall not apply to sales which are made to persons who   deal as consumers (as that expression is defined in section 12 of the unfair   contract terms act 1977), unless the contract is an international supply   contract (as defined in section 26 of that act). Condition 9.2 shall not   apply in the case of the death or personal injury of the buyer caused by the   seller’s negligence.

     

10.   Short/Non-Delivery
        No claim for short/non-delivery of goods will be considered   by the seller if the buyer has acknowledged receipt of the goods by signing   one of the sellers Invoice/Delivery notes.

     

If the quantity of goods delivered is less than that agreed   by the seller and the buyer, the buyer shall not be entitled to reject the   delivery, but shall be entitled only to a further delivery of goods to make   up the deficiency, or (at the seller’s option) a refund by way of a credit   note of the appropriate part of the purchase price.

     

The buyer shall however have no entitlement whatsoever in   respect of such non-delivery/short delivery:-

     

10.1         unless   such claim is made (by post or by telephone) to the seller’s sales office by   the close of business the next working day following the day of purported   delivery. If the claim is made by telephone, the buyer should note both the   name of the person spoken to and any acknowledgement reference given. Any   claim made by telephone should be confirmed in writing by the buyer by the   close of business on the fifth working day following the day of the purported   delivery.

     

10.2         unless   the buyer notifies the carrier in writing of any such short-delivery or   non-delivery and enters a note of the same upon the carriers receipt. If by   reason of the failure of the buyer to give such notice the seller is   prevented from successfully claiming against the carrier for such   short-delivery or non-delivery, the rights of the buyer under this condition   shall not apply and the buyer shall be liable to pay the full price for all   the goods the subject of the contract.

     

11.   Returns
        11.1         The   seller has the discretion (which it may exercise as it wishes) to accept the   return of any of the goods supplied to but not required by the buyer (upon   such terms in respect of a handling charge or otherwise as the seller may   choose) and to issue a credit note in respect thereof. Any request by the   buyer for the seller to exercise such a discretion must be made in accordance   with the returns procedure set out in condition 14 below.  The seller   will only consider any claim by the buyer under this condition if the items   the buyer proposes to return are in their original packaging, are in a   merchantable condition and are of a type distributed by the seller at the time   of the claim. If a return is accepted a credit note will be issued in the sum   of that part of the purchase price paid in respect of the goods returned.

     

11.2         The   buyer should note that, without prejudice to condition 11.1, electronic   office machines will only be accepted by the seller as returns where the   seller has a like remedy against the manufacturer thereof.

     

11.3         The   seller will only consider exercising its discretion to accept diaries and   other dated products as returns where the returns request is made by December   31st of the year previous to the year to which such diaries (or   other dated products) relate.

     

12.   Buyer’s Default
        12.1                This condition applies if:-

     

12.1.1        the buyer makes any voluntary arrangement with its   creditors, or becomes subject to an administration order, or (being an   individual or firm) becomes bankrupt, or (being a company) goes into   liquidation (otherwise than for the purpose of amalgamation or   reconstruction); or
        12.1.2        an encumbrancer takes possession, or a receiver is   appointed, of any of the property or assets of the buyer; or
        12.1.3        the buyer ceases, or threatens to cease, to carry on   business; or
        12.1.4        the buyer is in breach of any term of the contract.

     

12.2          If   this condition applies then, without prejudice to any other right or remedy   available to the seller, the seller shall be entitled to cancel the contract   or suspend any further deliveries under the contract without any liability to   the buyer and if the goods have been delivered but not paid for, the price   shall become immediately due and payable notwithstanding any previous   agreement or arrangement to the contrary.

     

13.   Other Claims  
        Claims in respect of any other matter other than as   described in conditions 9 to 11 above must be made (by telephone or by post)   and received by the seller within twenty working days of the date of the   invoice relating to the goods the subject of the claim. Where the buyer makes   the claim by telephone, it must be confirmed in writing by the buyer within a   further three working days. When making any claim by telephone, the buyer is   advised to note the name of the person spoken to and any acknowledgement   reference given.

     

14.   Claims Procedure in Respect of Defective Goods and Returns Procedure
        14.1         The   seller’s sales office must be notified of any claim in respect of any of the   goods alleged to be defective, or of any returns or request by telephone or   email and such notification must be made within five working days (in the   case of goods alleged to be defective) and within twenty working days (in the   case of any returns request) of delivery. Where such claim or request is made   by telephone it will only be considered by the seller if it is confirmed in   writing by the buyer within a further three working days. Where the buyer   makes such a claim or request by telephone, it is advised to note the name of   the person spoken to and any acknowledgement reference.

     

14.2         The   seller will only consider such a claim or returns request in respect of any   of the goods if the following further information is given:-

     

14.2.1        the invoice number in respect of the goods;
        14.2.2        the part number of the item (or any description that   clearly identifies the item to be returned);
        14.2.3        the quantity of the goods (expressed in the seller’s   correct unit of sale) the subject of the claim or returns request;
        14.2.4        the reason for the claim or returns request.

     

14.3           In addition, where it is alleged by the buyer that any of the goods are   defective due to damage occasioned to them, the buyer shall notify the   carrier in writing of such damage and enter a note of the same upon the   carrier’s receipt. If by reason of the failure of the buyer to give any such   notice, the seller is prevented from successfully claiming against the   carrier for such damage, the buyer shall be liable to pay for the goods as   though no such damage occurred.

     

15.   Force Majeure
        The seller shall have the right to cancel, or to reduce the   volume of the goods delivered, or to delay delivery if it is prevented from   or hindered in delivery of the goods through any circumstances beyond its   control (affecting either itself or any other party) including (but not   limited to) industrial action, war, fire, prohibition or enactment of any   kind, lock-out or trade dispute, without incurring any liability for any loss   or damage whatsoever resulting therefrom.

     

16.   Governing Law
        These   conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law   and the seller and the buyer hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of   the English courts
