The customer is responsible for loss or damage whilst equipment is in their possession.

PRICING

All prices shown on the Company’s price list, or on quotations offered by them, are based upon the acceptance of these conditions. Any variation of these conditions requested by the buyer could result in changes in the offered pricing or refusal to supply.

All quoted pricing is in Pounds Sterling as specified on the price list or quotation and is exclusive of VAT and delivery. In addition to the invoiced value, the buyer is liable for all import duty as may be applicable in the buyer’s location. If there is any documentation required for import formalities, whether or not for the purposes of duty assessment, the buyer shall make this clear at the time of order.

We reserve the right to make adjustments to the price to take account of any increase in, or the imposition of, any taxes or duties, or if due to an error or omission the price published for the goods is wrong. We will inform you of the correct price and give you an opportunity to cancel the order. If the goods have already been delivered, we will give you an opportunity to return the goods and receive a full refund of the price and any delivery charges you have paid for the goods.

If multiple shipments are requested by the buyer, multiple delivery charges will be made. In the case of multiple deliveries, separate invoices will be raised.

If requested at the time of ordering an alternative delivery service can be used, but only if account details are supplied to the Company so that the delivery can be invoiced directly to the buyer by the delivery service. An administrative charge may be added to the invoice issued at the discretion of the Company.

We will endeavour to deliver goods within the times stated, but goods are subject to availability and delay in delivery of goods is sometimes outside of our control.

contract, however:
