2.     These terms and conditions will apply to any purchase of goods by a customer (Customer) including any purchase of goods or order for services requested through any of the Supplier’s websites, in person, by telephone or other means.

 

Payment terms

3.     Subject to clause 4, the terms of payment are strictly fourteen (14) days from the date of invoice (or such other period as nominated by the Supplier herein). The Supplier may, at any time, vary the terms and conditions of trade in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

4.     Where the Customer does not have an approved commercial credit account with the Supplier, payment shall be, at the Supplier’s discretion, due and payable:

(a)   on or prior to delivery of the goods; or

(b)   by the date nominated by the Supplier’s invoice(s).

5.     Prices do not include delivery charges except where there is an agreement between the parties that it is included, or unless otherwise specified in writing. The Customer will be made aware of any delivery charges when it places an order. Any delivery charges payable by the Customer will be shown as a separate amount on the tax invoice provided to the Customer.

6.     The Customer must check all invoices and advise the Supplier of any errors or omissions within seven (7) days of receipt. Failing advice from the Customer that the invoice contains any errors or omissions, the invoice may be deemed accepted by the Supplier.

7.     Should the Customer not pay for the goods or services supplied by the Supplier in accordance with the credit terms as provided herein, or as agreed in writing by the Supplier and Customer from time to time, after issuing a written demand to the Customer demanding payment within fourteen (14) days, the Supplier will be entitled to charge an administration fee of ten (10) percent of the amount of the invoice payable.

8.     The Customer acknowledges that the Supplier shall be at liberty to charge a surcharge for credit card transactions equal to the merchant fees incurred by the Supplier.

The Supplier, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to withdraw, vary or extend any quotation at any time prior to the formation of a contract in accordance with clause 11.

11.   Quotations made by the Supplier will not be construed as an offer or obligation to supply in accordance with the quotation. The Supplier reserves the right to accept or reject, at its discretion, in whole or in part, any offer to purchase received by it upon provision of written reasons to the Customer. Only written acceptance by the Supplier of the Customer’s offer will complete a contract.

12.   The agreement between the Supplier and the Customer for the supply of goods commences on the date that the Supplier agrees to supply the goods ordered by the Customer. This will not necessarily be at the time the order is initially received by the Supplier.

13.   Placement of an order, either verbally or in writing, will imply acceptance of the Supplier’s offer and of these terms and conditions.

Variations

16.   The Customer understands and agrees that:

    • all variations must be agreed between the parties in writing prior to the goods and/or services being supplied;
    • all variations shall be, at the Supplier’s discretion, invoiced at the rate(s) specified in the quotation, as specifically quoted, or in accordance with the Supplier’s current prevailing rates (as amended from time to time).

    • there is any movement in the cost of supplying the goods and/or services specified in the Customer’s order;

    • otherwise provided for in these terms and conditions.

 

Cancellation of orders

18.   Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, the Customer may not cancel an order (or any part of an order) unless the Customer pays to the Supplier (in the Supplier’s sole discretion) any and all costs incurred by the Supplier in relation to the cancelled order (or cancelled part of an order), up until and including the date of cancellation.

19.   Notwithstanding any other rights the Supplier may have under this agreement, the Supplier may cancel any order or delivery of any order, by providing written notice to the Customer if the Customer:

23.   The Customer shall be liable for all costs associated with delivery, including freight, insurance, and any and all other charges and/or expenses incurred by the Supplier, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Returns

Further, the Customer must, upon request from the Supplier, allow the Supplier to enter upon any premises occupied by the Customer to inspect the goods that are subject of the claim. If the Customer fails to give notice or refuses to allow the Supplier to inspect the goods, then to the extent permitted by law, the goods must be treated as having been accepted by the Customer and the Customer must pay for the goods in accordance with these terms and conditions.

34.  The Customer cannot return goods to the Supplier without the written agreement of the Supplier, and the Supplier may accept return of the goods in the Supplier’s sole discretion on the following basis:

(a)   the goods are in the same condition that they were purchased in and able to be resold;

(b)   the Customer agrees to pay any expenses relating to the return of goods to the Supplier’s warehouse (if applicable); and

35.   Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, the Customer must pay all costs associated with the return of any goods (either to the Supplier or from the Supplier to the Customer or any third party) including freight, insurance, handling and other charges. The Supplier accepts no liability for any damage that occurs to any goods in return transit.

 

Risk

36.   Risk of damage to or loss of the goods passes to the Customer on delivery and the Customer must insure the goods on or before delivery.

37.   If any of the goods are damaged or destroyed following delivery but prior to ownership passing to the Customer, the Supplier is entitled to receive all insurance proceeds payable for the goods to the extent of the indebtedness of the Customer to the Supplier. The production of these terms and conditions by the Supplier is sufficient evidence of the Supplier’s rights to receive the insurance proceeds without the need for any person dealing with the Supplier to make further enquires.

38.   If the Customer requests that goods are delivered either to an unattended location, left outside, or are left outside the Supplier’s premises for collection, the Customer acknowledges that the Supplier will deliver the goods as requested at the Customer’s risk.

 

Retention of title

39.   Until such time as the Customer has made payment in full for the goods and until such time as the Customer has made payment in full of all other money owing by the Customer to the Supplier (whether in respect of money payable under a specific contract or on any other account whatsoever):

(a)   title in the goods does not pass to the Customer;

(b)   the Customer agrees that property and title in the goods will not pass to the Customer and the Supplier retains the legal and equitable title in those goods supplied and not yet sold;

(c)    the Customer will hold the goods in a fiduciary capacity for the Supplier and agrees to store the goods in such a manner that they can be identified as the property of the Supplier, and will not mix the goods with other similar goods; and

40.   The Customer’s indebtedness to the Supplier, whether in full or in part, will not be discharged by the operation of clause 39(d) hereof unless and until the funds held on trust are remitted to the Supplier.

41.   The Customer agrees that whilst property and title in the goods remains with the Supplier, the Supplier has the right, with prior notice to the Customer, to enter upon any premises occupied by the Customer (or any receiver, receiver and manager, administrator, liquidator or trustee in bankruptcy of the Customer) to inspect the goods of the Supplier and to repossess the goods which may be in the Customer’s possession, custody or control when payment is overdue.

42.   The Customer will be responsible for the Supplier’s reasonable costs and expenses in exercising its rights under clause 41 where the Customer is otherwise in default of the terms of this agreement. Where the Supplier exercises any power to enter the premises, that entry will not give rise to any action of trespass or similar action on the part of the Customer against the Supplier, its employees, servants or agents.

43.   The Customer agrees that where the goods have been retaken into the possession of the Supplier, the Supplier has the absolute right to sell or deal with the goods, and if necessary, sell the goods with the trademark or name of the Customer on those goods, and the Customer hereby grants an irrevocable licence to the Supplier to do all things necessary to sell the goods bearing the name or trademark of the Customer.

44.   For the avoidance of doubt, the Supplier’s interest constitutes a ‘purchase money security interest’ pursuant to the PPSA.

 

Cancellation of terms of credit

45.   The Supplier reserves the right to withdraw credit at any time upon provision of 48 hours’ written notice.

46.   Notwithstanding clause 45, if the Customer defaults in the payment of any amount due to the Supplier pursuant to this agreement and does not cure such default within seven (7) days after being given notice of such default, the Supplier may terminate this agreement (to be effective immediately) upon notice to the Customer.

47.   Upon the withdrawal of credit in accordance with clause 45, or upon termination of this agreement in accordance with clause 46, all liabilities incurred by the Customer become immediately due and payable to the Supplier.

48.   For the avoidance of doubt, termination of this agreement will not affect:

    • the right of any party to whom money is owed hereunder at the time of termination to receive that money according to the provisions hereof; and
    • the rights and/or obligations pursuant to this agreement which by their nature are intended to survive termination of this agreement.
