1. We have provided an acknowledgement of our agreement to make that supply. That acknowledgement incorporates these Conditions (except where they are specifically amended in the acknowledgement) and

• a specification of the goods and any incidental services: if not, our standard specification will apply;
• the price agreed; and

That is the whole of our agreement for this supply and supersedes any previous agreement we may have had in relation to it.  No variation to the agreement is valid unless it is in writing and is signed by authorized representatives of both of us.

2. TERMS

(b)     Goods must be paid for within 30 days of the date of invoice.

(c)     The Buyer must clearly identify to which invoice and/or credit note any settlement relates to.  If the Buyer fails to do this then the Seller may, at its discretion, treat the settlement as if it had not been made or as a settlement of the Buyer’s oldest invoice.

(d)    If the Buyer fails to serve notice disputing any invoice within the period stated in paragraph (b), the Buyer will pay such invoice within the period stated in the Conditions of Sale.

(c)     Time for payment shall be of the essence.

(c)     If the Seller fails to deliver the goods for any reason other than cause beyond the Seller’s reasonable control (in which case clause 15 applies) or the Buyer’s fault, the Seller’s liability shall be limited to the excess (if any) of the cost to the Buyer (in the cheapest available market) of similar goods to replace those not delivered over the price of the goods.

(d)    If goods are contracted to be delivered by instalments, late delivery of one instalment shall not entitle the Buyer to reject any other instalment under the same contract.

A delivery note signed by the Buyer or its agent is conclusive proof of correct delivery. Claims in respect of short deliveries, discrepancies or damage to goods in transit must be notified by the Buyer to the Seller in writing within 3 working days of receipt of the goods. No claim can be made outside this time period.

(f)      The content of the Seller’s invoice including the price for the goods, description of goods and delivery charges shall, in the absence of manifest error, be deemed to have been accepted by the Buyer as correct unless the Buyer notifies the Seller’s Customer Services department within 14 days of the date of the Seller’s invoice.
