Please note where goods are one-off orders we will be unable to offer our Trade Price but we will allow a substantial discoun off retail.
NB: Where goods ordered are mainly Hurdles or other bulky items we reserve the right to make a special carriage charge, even through the order may be over £450 - This is due to the carriers categorising them as "Undesirable Freight" and therefore surchanging us.
5. Claims regarding damaged merchandise or shortages must be faxed to us within 7 days of delivery of goods in question. Where a carrier asks you to sign for packages "received in good condition" we suggest you delete "good condition" and sign "unchecked" because we cannot claim for breakages if signed for "received in good condition"
6. Claims in respect of lost merchandise must be faxed direct to our offices immediately quoting invoice and account number. We require this within 48 hours of receipt of invoice.
7. Claims made or notified to us outside periods specified in numbers 3 will not be enforceable against us.
8. We shall not be liable for delay in delivery, non-delivery or damage to goods by reason of any act of God, Government Orders, Strikes, War or any other circumstances beyond our control.
9. No orders will be considered cancelled unless notification in writing is received prior to despatch and if goods are returned to us withour our prior consent they may be subject to a 25% charge.
10. Whilst every attempt is made to complete shipments in one delivery, we reserve the right to make part deliveries.
11. If stocks of an ordered item have been exhausted, customer's orders will be held pending our obtaining new stocks for delivery as soon as possible.
12. All accounts must be paid within 30 days of the invoice date. After 60 days of the invoice date, unpaid accounts will be subject to an interest charge at 2% per mont. We regret having to make this charge due to some customers taking extended credit.
13. On delivery all risks in connection to the goods shall pass to the customer. However, title to the goods will remain with us until the customer has paid in full for all the items delivered.
14. Until payment the customer must retain the goods as bailee to our order and must store the goods separately and in such a way that they are clearly designated as our property until full payment has been made.
