8.2.

The Customer acknowledges that the manufacturer of the Works typically provides warranty assurances directly for the benefit of end users of the Works.

8.3.

The Customer acknowledges that the Supplier does not hold itself out as having any particular expertise in relation to the actual Works and the Customer agrees that it relies entirely on its own skill and judgement in evaluating the suitability and fitness of the Works for its purpose.

9.3.

Returns Reference Number ("RRN"). An RRN must be obtained from the Supplier's Sales Office before any return will be processed in accordance with this Clause 9.

When preparing the Goods for return the Customer must ensure that the RRN is clearly visible on a label on the outer covering.

9.4.

If the Supplier has accepted such deadline the Supplier will at its own cost arrange for the collection of goods falling into this category.

9.6.

Defective On Arrival ("DOA") Goods. DOA Goods are those found to have a fault on delivery. The fact that there is a fault must be confirmed by someone with technical knowledge and the Customer must provide as much specific technical detail as is reasonably possible. DOA Goods must be notified within 7 days of delivery of the Goods in order to qualify for credit or replacement (at the Supplier's option and in the Supplier's absolute discretion). The packaging of the Goods must be in pristine condition otherwise the Customer will be subject to a minimum 20% handling/restocking fee. The freight cost of returning the Goods to the Supplier will be the responsibility of the Customer. The Supplier will meet the reasonable costs of returning replacement Goods (as appropriate) to the Customer and also any carriage costs incurred in sorting the problem out.

9.7.

No Defect Found ("NDF"). If Goods are returned and are found to be of NDF status a handling/restocking fee of at least 20% will be invoiced. The percentage charged will depend on amongst other things the amount of labour involved and the condition of the packaging and contents and the Supplier reserves the right to insist on a purchase order covering this cost and the return freight cost before returning the Goods.

9.8.

Goods Returned Not In Original Condition. Goods returned where the packaging and/or contents is found not to be in its original condition are likely to be rejected on arrival. Should the Supplier agree to accept such Goods (in its absolute discretion) the Supplier reserves the right to impose a handling/re-stocking fee of at least 20% of the original sale value of the Goods. Should items be damaged in transit during its return to the Supplier it is the responsibility of the Customer (and not the Supplier) to take this matter up with the carriers.

9.9.

Packaging and Labelling. Where possible, the packaging of the Goods being returned should be protected by using an outer cover. The Customer should not write on, or attach labels, to the packaging itself if this can be avoided. When preparing the Goods for return the Customer should ensure that the RNN is easily visible on a label on the outer covering.

9.10.

Overdue Accounts. No returns will be accepted from any Customer whose account is overdue.

9.11.

the Supplier will not be obliged to comply with any of the provisions in this Clause 9 unless

9.11.2.	(where the Goods are faulty and fault is not apparent on reasonable inspection) the Customer gives written notice of the fault to the Supplier within 7 days of the date when the Customer discovers or ought reasonably to have discovered the fault.

9.12.4	the Customer makes any further use of the Goods after giving written notice of a fault;
9.12.5	the fault arises because the Customer has failed to follow the Supplier's or the manufacturers instructions (whether oral or in writing) as to the storage, assembly, use, handling or maintenance of the Goods or (if there are none) good trade practice;
9.12.6	the fault arises as a result of any testing or commissioning of the Goods performed by the Customer or any third party;
9.12.7	the fault arises as a result of any alteration, servicing or repair of the Goods not made by the Supplier; or
9.12.8	the Customer acknowledges that the Contract states that the Goods are sold in their actual state without warranty then the Customer acknowledges that the Supplier is not obliged to comply with its obligations under this Clause 9, that the Supplier reserves the right to apply a reasonable labour charge to the Customer without completing any repair and the Supplier reserves the right to retain the Goods until a purchase order is received covering the labour charge and the return freight cost.

5. Price and Payment

5.1.	The price for the Works will be stated in the Order and (unless otherwise agreed in writing) will be fixed for the duration of the Contract and will be exclusive of value added tax but inclusive of all other charges (including but not limited to charges for packaging, delivery and insurance requested by the Customer).

The Customer and Supplier agree that in exercising this right to set off, the Customer shall be doing no more than discharging its own liability by the application of its own asset. Any exercise by the Customer of its rights under these Conditions will be without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to the Customer under these Conditions or otherwise.

6. Changes in Specification etc

The Customer may at any time make written changes to the Contract including but not limited to changes in the designs, compositions, specifications, method of shipment, scope of Services, quantities, packaging or time or place of delivery or collection (as appropriate).
