2.Order procedure

a.Any quotation We issue is not an offer to sell the goods which are the subject of that quotation but, it is an invitation to You to treat. Any quotation We issue may be withdrawn by Us at any time on notice. Each order placed by You shall be an offer by You to purchase the relevant goods on these conditions. An order placed by You will be deemed accepted by Us when We issue a written order confirmation or deliver the goods which are the subject of Your order (whichever happens first). Once We accept an order it may only be cancelled if We agree in writing.

b.If, for any reason beyond Our reasonable control, We are unable to deliver the goods You have ordered, We will notify You by email and set out details of any alternative goods that are available to You (which will be of a similar quality and of a similar specification as the Goods they replace).

c.Where You are not willing to accept any alternative goods We offer, or if there are no reasonable alternatives available, We may cancel Your contract by notifying You by email, at the email address You have provided, and We will credit Your account with any sum charged to You for those goods as soon as possible, but in any event within 30 days of Your order.

3.Pricing and payment

a.The price for the goods will be the price specified in the relevant quotation We issue. If not quotation has been issued, the price will be the price specified in our price list for the goods at the date of delivery. Prices are inclusive of VAT and any other applicable costs and charges but do not include delivery. Any prices on Our website may be subject to change so You must check the prices at the time You place Your order with Us.

b.We may make an adjustment to the price of the goods to reflect:

i.any request by You to change the delivery date(s), quantities or types of goods ordered, or the specification;

ii.any delay caused by Your instructions or Your failure to give Us adequate or accurate information or instructions.

c.If You consider any such increase to be unreasonable You may within 7 days of receipt of such notice cancel any order for the goods affected by the price increase unless they have already been dispatched or delivered. You may not cancel any purchase orders where the goods have been made to Your specification.

d.You must pay the price for each order in cleared funds prior to the date of delivery unless We have agreed to grant You credit terms (which may be withdrawn or amended at any time by Us on notice and which may be on such terms as We believe are reasonable) in which case, We shall be entitled to invoice You on such terms as We have agreed. Time of payment shall be of the essence and We shall be entitled to suspend further deliveries under any or all of Your orders if any amount is overdue.

e.Unless We agree otherwise, goods that We order specifically for You or goods that are the subject of any embellishment (including but not limited to embroidery, screen printing, heat-transfer decoration or other customisation) (“bespoke goods”) must be paid for in full before delivery. If you cancel any order for bespoke goods, You agree to pay for those goods in full and We will not accept the return of those goods other than in accordance with clause 6.

f.If You fail to make any payment due to Us by the due date for payment, then You shall pay interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% per annum above Lloyds Bank PLC’s base rate from time to time.

ii.Monthly credit notes for rebates/referral fees must be requested within 90 days from the end of month that the purchase was made: and

iii.All rebates will be calculated based on calendar month delivered purchases and will subsequently paid via monthly credit notes against future delivered purchases.   Only one credit note is allowed to be presented by the You per month and the credit note cannot be more than 50% of the total value of all goods delivered in that month.  For the avoidance of doubt no cash or bank payments will be made; and
