Orders. We sell and you purchase the Products by our acceptance of any written order you issue to us. Such an order is subject to these Conditions of Sale. The quantity, quality, description, price and any additional specification for the Products shall be as set out in our Order Acknowledgment to you. Any details that are incorrect on this Order Acknowledgment must be notified within 2 days of issue. We will not be liable if the Products do not meet your requirements because you fail to do this. Any documentation or communication received from you in the course of an order will have an effect only in so far as it refers to terms and conditions which are particular to that order and which are not at variance with these Conditions except where we agree in writing to later or vary any of these individual Conditions. These Conditions shall override and supersede any terms or conditions of purchase purported to be incorporated either expressly or implied into the Contract.

Branding. A visual representation of the branding is sent electronically subsequent to the acknowledgement of order and upon receipt of suitable artwork. Approval must be given in writing prior to production irrespective of whether it is a repeat job or not. We shall incur no liability for errors not corrected on proofs submitted by us or our subcontractors for customer approval. Customer alterations and additional proofs necessitated thereby shall be charged as extra to the contract. Where style, type, layout or print is left to our discretion any alteration required by you shall be charged as extra to the contract. Any markings to be applied to the Products are granted to us a licence in respect of any materials in which you or a third party hold rights to apply such material in accordance with the Order. You indemnify us against al loss, damages, costs and expenses awarded against or incurred by us in connection with or paid or agreed to be paid by us in settlement of any claim for infringement of any patent, copyright, design, trade mark or other industrial or intellectual property rights of any person which results from our use of your specification.

You shall also indemnify us in full against all loss (including loss of profit), costs (including the cost of all labour and materials used), damages, charges and expenses incurred by us as a result of such cancellation. Should work be suspended or delayed by you through your own fault or omission we shall be entitled to payment for any work carried out, materials used and any other additional costs, including storage, which may have been incurred. Where Product is supplied with no branding there is both an administration charge of £25 per order and a re- stocking charge which relates to the volume size of the order. Neither shall we be held liable for return delivery cost.

Pricing. In relation to an Order, we reserve the right by giving notice to you at any time before delivery, to increase the price of the Products to reflect any increase in the cost of Products to us which is due to any factor beyond our control (such as, without limitation, any foreign exchange fluctuation, currency regulation, alteration of duties, significant increase in the costs of labour, materials or other costs of manufacture), any change in delivery dates, quantities or specifications for the Products which is requested by you, or any delay caused by instructions from you or failure by you to give is adequate information or instructions.

You shall pay the price of the Products as per the terms of payment stated on our Acknowledgement of Order. We reserve the right to charge interest on any amount at the rate of 2% per month such interest accruing on a daily basis from the day following that on which the amount became due.

Where delivery of the Products is to be made by us in bulk, we reserve the right to deliver up to 5% above or below the quantity order and the quantity delivered shall be deemed to be the quantity ordered. Where the Products are to be delivered in instalments, each delivery shall constitute a separate contract and failure by us to deliver any one or more of the instalments in accordance with these Conditions or any claim by you in respect of any one or more instalments shall not entitle you to treat the Order as a whole as repudiated.
