WOODFAST WOODWORKING MACHINERY - GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Acceptance of Orders:
All contracts of sale made by Woodfast Woodworking Machinery ("The Company") shall be deemed to incorporate these terms & conditions, which shall prevail over any other document or communication from the party with whom the company is dealing ("The Customer"). All orders are accepted and fulfilled subject to these conditions under English law unless otherwise agreed in writing. In these conditions, "we," "us," and "our" refer to the Company. You can write to us at [Company Address] or send an email to [Company Email]. These are also the addresses to write to if you have any complaints. "You" and "Your" refer to the customer who places an order with us. We reserve the right to not accept any order. Once your order is accepted by us, a contract will come into force on the terms & conditions set out here.

Price:
All prices are ex-works and exclude VAT or any taxes. Customers will be invoiced for delivery at the current rate. Maintenance of prices is not guaranteed and is subject to alteration without notice. Every effort is made to ensure that prices and descriptions are accurate at the time of going to press/on the website. If an error is found or if manufacturer’s prices or products change, we will inform you as soon as possible and offer you the option of canceling your order or reconfirming your order with the revised price or product. We are under no obligation to provide goods to you at an incorrect (lower) price if the error is obvious and could reasonably have been recognized as a pricing error.

Invoices:
Goods are invoiced at the prices ruling at the time of dispatch. VAT, where applicable, will be applied to all goods or services supplied at the rate in force at the time of the invoice.

a) Whilst every effort will be made to dispatch the goods on time, no liability can be accepted by the Company for failure to deliver goods in the specified time. All delivery times quoted are business estimates only and form no part of any contractual obligation.
b) The Company will accept no liability for shortages, damage, or non-delivery of goods unless the Customer notifies the Company in writing within three days of receipt of goods or invoice.
c) The Company’s liability for the safety of the goods ceases upon the Company placing the goods under the control & direction of the carrier.

Payment:
All goods must be paid for in full prior to dispatch or paid in full within 28 days from the invoice date for authorized credit account holders. Any payments that are overdue will bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum above the base rate of RBS Bank plc from the date that payment was due until the date of actual payment.

Title:
Ownership of the goods shall remain with the Company until payment in full has been received. Until such payment has been made, the Company may at any time (and without prejudice to any of its other rights) recover or resell the goods or any part of them and may enter the Customer’s premises for this purpose. If you sell the goods, you agree to hold the sale proceeds upon trust for us until you have paid us for them in full.

Specifications:
Technical data, dimensions, and weights quoted are a quick guide only, and no guarantee is given or implied that the goods will conform in absolute detail to the descriptions and illustrations. The Company reserves the right to amend specifications and withdraw goods from sale without prior notice.

Suitability:
Other than expressly stated in the catalog or manufacturer’s brochures, the Company makes no representations as to the fitness or suitability of any goods for any purpose whatsoever.

Liability:
The Company shall under no circumstances whatsoever be liable for any indirect or consequential loss however caused. The Company’s liability for any non-performance of any order shall be limited to the value of the goods to which the claim relates.

Claims:
Non-delivery or damage must be notified to the Company in writing within three days. Inspection of goods on delivery prior to signing acceptance is essential. Carrier’s notes for delivery of goods must be endorsed accordingly. Failure to observe the proper claims procedure will invalidate the Company’s contractual liability under these conditions of sale.

Returns:
Undamaged, unopened, and fully marketable goods may be returned by prior agreement of the Company, which reserves the right to make a cancellation or administrative charge.

a) You can only exercise this right to cancel your order if the goods are still in a re-saleable condition & you have retained the packaging.
b) You must return the goods to us at your own cost to the address in clause 1 of these conditions (unless we are at fault, in which case we will arrange collection).
c) You must take care to ensure the goods are not damaged in the meantime.
d) If you do not return the goods as required, we may charge you the costs of recovering them ourselves.

Cancellation:
All monies paid form part of a contract of sale & are non-refundable. Orders will be considered canceled upon notice from the customer or failure to take delivery of the goods within a period of 30 days from when the Company notifies the Customer that the goods are ready for dispatch.

Storage:
Goods paid for in full or part paid may be stored at the Company’s discretion by prior arrangement. Storage charges will accrue at a rate of 1% of the invoice value per month following the date after which the customer failed to arrange collection or refused to accept delivery.

Delivery:
Delivery encompasses the mode of transport of the goods or machines to the Customer’s address. If offloading has been expressly included in writing within the terms of the delivery, the machine(s) remain(s) the haulier’s responsibility until they have been offloaded from the vehicle to the ground. Once the machine has been removed from the vehicle, responsibility passes to the Customer regarding logistics and liability.
