Notwithstanding clause 2.2, all prices are subject to variation by the Seller without notice and Goods will be invoiced at the prices ruling at the date of dispatch from the Seller’s premises. The prices of the Goods will be as quoted on our website from time to time. Our website contains a large number of Goods. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices of Goods are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system but it is possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, prices shown may be incorrect. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that: 4.1.1. where the correct price of the Goods is less than the price stated on our website, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Goods to you. However, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Goods to you at the incorrect (lower) price; and ii. if the correct price of the Goods is higher than the price stated on our site, we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Goods at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we do not receive your instructions, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing.
4.2. Interest on overdue invoices shall run from the date when payment becomes due from day to day until the date of payment at a rate of 8% above the Bank of England base rate from time to time in force and such rate shall apply both after as well as before any judgement.
4.3. For all Buyers (other than Buyers with a credit account) invoices are payable at the time that Goods are delivered. Buyers obtaining Goods through a credit account facility shall make payment on the last working day of the month following the month of invoice. Seller will accept payment of credit accounts by credit card subject to a 2.5% surcharge.

4.5.3. Where fine or special tolerances are required in the Goods supplied beyond those generally accepted in the building trade, no liability will attach to the Seller unless such fine tolerances are notified in writing to the Seller at the time of order and the Seller has acknowledged in writing that it is prepared to accept such order.

5. Delivery
5.1.1. Delivery dates mentioned in any quotation or acceptance form or elsewhere are given in good faith but are approximate only, non-binding and not of any contractual effect, and the Seller shall not be under any liability to the Buyer in respect of any failure to deliver on any particular date or dates, nor shall time be of the essence in any Contract.
5.1.2. Where delivery of Goods to site is undertaken by the Seller, it is on the understanding that there is a suitable road / access to the point on the site where delivery is requested. If no such road / access exists, delivery will be made to the nearest point to which, in the opinion of the Seller or its carrier, the Seller or its carrier can safely proceed and unload.
5.1.3. All necessary labour and equipment required to unload Goods promptly shall be supplied by the Buyer at the Buyer’s expense, and neither the Seller nor its carrier shall be responsible for unloading. For the purposes of Condition 8 below delivery shall

6.Return of Goods
6.1. The Seller may in its sole discretion accept or reject the return of any Goods which have been incorrectly ordered. In the event that the Seller decides to accept the return of such Goods, such acceptance shall be upon such terms as the Seller may determine and in particular the Seller reserves the right to charge a minimum of 15% of the price of the goods for the carriage and handling of such Goods.

7.3. Until such time as the property in the Goods passes to the Buyer, the Buyer shall be entitled to resell or use the Goods in the ordinary course of its business, but shall account to the Seller for the proceeds of sale or otherwise of the Goods, whether tangible or intangible, including insurance proceeds, and shall keep all such proceeds separate from any moneys or property of the Buyer and third parties and, in the case of tangible proceeds, properly stored, protected and insured.
7.4. Until such time as the property in the Goods passes to the Buyer (and provided the Goods are still in existence) the Buyer shall store the Goods separately from all other goods held by the Buyer so that they remain readily identifiable as the Seller’s property, and the Seller shall be entitled at any time to require the Buyer to deliver up the Goods to the Seller, and, if the Buyer fails to do so forthwith, or in any event within 7 days of the Seller’s request, to enter upon any premises of the Buyer or any third party where the Goods are stored and repossess the Goods. The Buyer shall be entitled to pledge or in any way charge by way of security for any indebtedness any of the Goods which remain the property of the Seller, but if the Buyer does so all moneys owing by the Buyer to the Seller shall without prejudice to any other right or remedy of the Seller become immediately due and payable.

8. Claims for defects, damage, loss or non-delivery
8.1. The Buyer shall inspect the Goods on delivery and shall within three days from the date of delivery as stated on the sales invoice notify the Seller in writing of any alleged defect, shortage in quantity, damage or failure to comply with description or sample. The Buyer shall give the Seller an opportunity to inspect such Goods at the Buyer’s premises or delivery site within a reasonable time following delivery and before any use is made of them or the Goods are resold to a third party.
8.2. The Buyer shall notify the Seller in writing of any non-delivery of a whole consignment within three days of the date of dispatch as stated on the sales invoice.
8.3. If the Buyer shall fail to notify the Seller or to comply with the foregoing, the Goods shall be conclusively presumed to be in accordance with the Contract and free from any defect or damage which would be apparent on reasonable examination of the Goods and the Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the Goods. After acceptance, the Buyer shall not be entitled to reject any Goods which are in alleged non-accordance with the Contract and where the Buyer accepts or has been deemed to have accepted any Goods then the Seller shall have no liability whatever to the Buyer or any third party in respect of the Goods. If the Buyer establishes to the Seller’s reasonable satisfaction that the Goods are not in accordance with the Contract or are defective the Buyer’s sole remedy in respect thereof shall be limited as the Seller may elect, to making good any shortage or to repairing or replacing such Goods or refunding all, or part of the Contract price against return of the Goods in good condition.
