2.1 The Customer is taken to have exclusively accepted and is immediately bound, jointly and severally, by these terms and conditions if the Customer places an order for or accepts delivery of the Goods.

2.2 These terms and conditions may only be amended with the Seller’s consent in writing and shall prevail to the extent of any inconsistency with any other document or agreement between the Customer and the Seller.

2.3 Once accepted by the Customer, the Seller’s written quotation shall be deemed to interpret correctly the Customer’s instructions, whether written or verbal. Where verbal instructions only are received from the Customer, the Seller shall not be responsible for errors or omissions due to oversight or misinterpretation of those instructions.

 

  1. Electronic Transactions Act 2002

3.1 Electronic signatures shall be deemed to be accepted by either party providing that the parties have complied with Section 22 of the Electronic Transactions Act 2002 or any other applicable provisions of that Act or any Regulations referred to in that Act.

The Customer shall be liable for any loss incurred by the Seller as a result of the Customer’s failure to comply with this clause.

5.2 The Seller reserves the right to change the Price if a variation to the Seller’s quotation is requested. Any variation from the plan of scheduled Services or specifications (including, but not limited to, any variation as a result of additional Services required due to unforeseen circumstances such as availability of specialised papers, prerequisite work by any third party not being completed or as a result of any increase to the Seller in the cost of materials and labour) will be charged for on the basis of the Seller’s quotation and will be shown as variations on the invoice. Payment for all variations must be made in full at their time of completion.

5.3 When style, type or layout is left to the Seller’s judgement and then the Customer makes further alterations to the copy this will be invoiced as an extra.

5.4 At the Seller’s sole discretion a non-refundable deposit may be required.

In addition the Customer must pay any other taxes and duties that may be applicable in addition to the Price except where they are expressly included in the Price.

 

  1. Delivery of Goods

6.1 Delivery (“Delivery”) of the Goods is taken to occur at the time that the Seller (or the Seller’s nominated carrier) delivers the Goods to the Customer’s nominated address even if the Customer is not present at the address.

6.2 At the Seller’s sole discretion the cost of delivery is in addition to the Price.

6.3 The Customer must take delivery by receipt or collection of the Goods whenever they are tendered for delivery. In the event that the Customer is unable to take delivery of the Goods as arranged then the Seller shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee for redelivery and/or storage.

6.4 The Seller may deliver the Goods in separate instalments. Each separate instalment shall be invoiced and paid in accordance with the provisions in these terms and conditions.

6.5 The Customer shall take delivery of the Goods tendered notwithstanding that the quantity so delivered shall be either greater or lesser than the quantity purchased provided that:

(a) such discrepancy in quantity shall not exceed two percent (2%); and

(b) the Price shall be adjusted pro rata to the discrepancy.

6.6 Any time or date given by the Seller to the Customer is an estimate only. The Customer must still accept delivery of the Goods even if late and the Seller will not be liable for any loss or damage incurred by the Customer as a result of the delivery being late.

7.1 Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods passes to the Customer on completion and the Customer must insure the Goods on or before and the Goods are dispatched at the request of the Customer.

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

7.3 If the Customer requests the Seller to leave Goods outside the Seller’s premises for collection or to deliver the Goods to an unattended location then such Goods shall be left at the Customer’s sole risk.

7.4 The Seller shall be under no liability whatever to the Customer for any variation (beyond the reasonable control of the Seller) in colours between the approved prototype and the finished Goods.

7.6 All work carried out whether experimentally or otherwise at the Customer’s request will be charged to the Customer.

7.7 Any tabulated work and/or foreign language included in the job but not contained in the manuscript originally submitted for the purpose of estimating may be charged to the Customer and shown as extras on the invoice.

7.8 Unless otherwise agreed, the Customer shall bear the cost of fonts, or colour proofs, or artwork, specially bought at its request for the work.

7.10 Whilst every care is taken by the Seller to carry out the instructions of the Customer, it is the Customer’s responsibility to undertake a final proof reading of the Goods. The Seller shall be under no liability whatever for any errors not corrected by the Customer in the final proof reading. Should the Customer’s alterations require additional proofs this shall be invoiced as an extra.

7.11 Goods printed or made to special order, Customer specification or non-catalogue items are under no circumstances acceptable for credit or return. Cancellation of orders for printed or special or non-catalogue items will definitely not be accepted, once these orders are in production.

7.12 The Seller is under no obligation to provide samples of Goods ordered other than by virtual (computerised) sample. Whilst every effort will be taken by the Seller to match virtual colours with physical colours, the Seller will take no responsibility for any variation between virtual sale samples and either the virtual sale sample displayed on the Customer’s computer and/or the final product. Should a physical sample be required this will be provided on request by the Customer and will be charged for as an extra including return freight, the charge will be contra against final invoice.

7.13 While every effort will be taken by the Seller to print colours PMS and CYMK), the Seller reserves the right to judge defectiveness at the Seller’s discretion based on industry standards.

7.14 The Seller shall not be held liable for inks wearing off through general wear and tear.

7.15 Where the Customer supplies materials, adequate quantities shall be supplied to cover spoilage. Sheets and other materials shall not be counted or checked when received unless requested by the Customer in writing. An additional charge may be made by the Seller in respect of any such counting or checking requested by the Customer.

7.16 In the case of property and materials left with the Seller without specific instructions, the Seller shall be free to dispose of them at the end of twelve (12) months after receiving them and to accept and retain any proceeds gained from such disposal to cover the Seller’s costs in holding and handling such items.
