1. DEFINITIONS

“The Company” – Russell’s (Kirbymoorside) Ltd
“The Purchaser” – Any legal entity person placing an order for, or receiving, Goods or Services supplied by the Company.
“Goods” – Any machine, vehicle, equipment, service, spare part, or miscellaneous item in which the company trades.
“Services” – Work on equipment not owned by the Company carried out at the Purchaser’s request.

2. DELIVERY

All orders for Goods and Services are accepted by the Company in good faith but the Company cannot guarantee delivery or completion by any date and shall not be liable for any loss or damage which may result.

3. PRICE

Except for any Goods that are available from the Company’s stock at the time of order, the Company reserves the right to charge the price ruling at the time of delivery. All prices are subject to VAT where appropriate. The Company does not accept return of goods supplied correctly to order unless written permission has been obtained.  Any return must be within 14 days. The company will not accept the return of electrical or electronic components or any item where the packaging has been damaged. Any agreed return will be subject to the supplier accepting the return and a handling charge based on the supplier’s terms and conditions will be applied. This will be a minimum of 15%.

4. PAYMENT

When the Purchaser places an order with the Company, terms of payment may be agreed which are specific to that order. In the absence of specific payment terms, invoices are due to be paid by the 25th of the month following the date of invoice. Accounts not paid by the due date will be liable to a credit charge of 5%. If the Purchaser should be in default of payment due to the Company, the Company shall have the right to suspend deliveries of Goods and Services. The Purchaser will remain liable for payment for all Goods delivered or Services performed for him/her up to that time, whether invoiced or not.

5. TITLE & RISK

Goods will remain in the ownership of the Company until full payment has been received from the Purchaser or his agent and are supplied on condition that the Purchaser grants an irrevocable license to the Company to enter any premises to remove goods which have not been paid for within the agreed timescale or where the Purchaser’s right to possession has terminated. The risk of loss or damage to the goods, as well as the obligation to bear the costs relating to the goods, passes from the Company to the Purchaser when the Company has fulfilled its obligation to deliver the goods.

6. SUITABILITY OF GOODS

The Company will, if required to do so, provide the opportunity for a Purchaser to inspect Goods prior to ordering to ensure their suitability for his requirements. Thereafter save as set out in clause 8 hereof and subject to the provisions of the Supply of Goods (Implied Terms) Act 1973 (as amended) the Company gives no warranty that anything supplied by it is fit for any purpose other than the normal purpose for which it is customarily supplied or that its quality, if new, is other than as warranted by the manufacturer, or if not new and has been inspected by the aforesaid is any better than can be expected for the price paid.

7. CANCELLATION

Cancellation of orders cannot be accepted without the prior agreement in writing of the Company. If the Purchaser’s request to cancel the order is accepted by the Company, the Purchaser’s deposit shall be forfeited. If the Purchaser shall fail to take and pay for the Goods within 14 days of notification that what has been ordered is ready for delivery, the Company shall be at liberty to treat the contract as repudiated by the Purchaser and thereupon the deposit shall be forfeited without prejudice to the Company’s right to recover from the Purchaser by way of damages any loss or expense which the Company may suffer or incur by reason of the Purchaser’s default.

8. WARRANTY

If any new Goods supplied by the Company are found to be of defective workmanship or materials so as to entitle the Company to have them repaired or replaced by or at the cost of the manufacturer the company undertakes so to do, provided however that any costs or expenses incurred by the Company in such replacement or repair which are not recoverable from the manufacturer by the Company shall be paid to the Company by the Purchaser and provided also that if owing to the failure of the Purchaser to comply with any terms imposed by the manufacturer which the manufacturer is not bound to replace or repair the Company shall be under no liability to the Purchaser.

9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

(a) All warranties, conditions and other terms implied by statute or common law (save for the conditions implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979) are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from any Contract of Sale.

(b) The Company’s total liability in contract, tort (including negligence or breach of statutory duty), misrepresentation, restitution or otherwise, arising in connection with the performance or contemplated performance of this Contract shall be limited to the contract price.

(c) The Company shall not be liable to the Purchaser for any pure economic loss, loss of profit, loss of business, depletion of goodwill or otherwise, in each case whether direct, indirect or consequential, or any claims for consequential compensation whatsoever (howsoever caused) which arise out of or in connection with the Contract.

10. APPLICATION OF TERMS

(a) Sales by the Company will be on these conditions to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions (including any terms or conditions which the Purchaser purports to apply under any purchase order, confirmation of order, specification, or other document). No terms or conditions endorsed upon, delivered with, or contained in the Purchaser’s purchase order, confirmation of order, specification or other document will form part of the Contract simply because of such a document being referred to in the Contract.

(b) Each order or acceptance of a quotation for Goods by the Purchaser from the Company shall be
deemed to be an offer by the Purchaser to purchase Goods subject to these conditions.

11. DESCRIPTION OF GOODS AND SERVICES

All samples, drawings, descriptive matter, specifications and advertising issued by the Company and any descriptions or illustrations contained in the Company’s catalogues, web site, social media or brochures are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Goods and Services described in them. They do not create a sale by sample.

12. FORCE MAJEURE

The Company reserves the right to defer the date of delivery or to cancel a Contract or reduce the volume of the Goods ordered by the Purchaser (without liability to the Purchaser) if it is prevented from or delayed in the carrying on of its business due to circumstances beyond the reasonable
control of the Company, provided that, if the event in question continues for a continuous period in excess of 90 days, the Purchaser shall be entitled to give notice in writing to the Company to terminate the Contract.
