2. If you offer to purchase goods based on a quotation from us, then your offer is subject to these conditions.
Not obligated to accept orders

Our order conditions overrule any order form
4. These conditions apply and prevail even if they are inconsistent with anything said or implied in any earlier or later order form or similar document
Non-cancellation of orders and non-return of goods
5. No returns or cancellations will be accepted without prior written agreement from us, which we may provide or withhold in our discretion (including imposing conditions); and

(b) As at the date this clause 5 was printed, our restocking charge varies as follows: (i) if you ask to cancel an order, and you return the goods to us in accordance with these conditions less 14 days after the delivery of the goods by us, the charge is nil; (ii) where the goods are returned in accordance with these conditions between 14 and 28 days after delivery, the charge is 10% of the sale price of the goods or services ordered; and (iii) we do not accept any returns more than 28 days after delivery; and
(c) You acknowledge that; (i) our re-stocking charge under this clause 5 is reasonable; (ii) the specified represents a reasonable and genuine pre-estimate of our expenses and loss resulting from your cancelled order; (iii) we may offer our restocking charges without notice to you; and (iv) you must be advised of our current re-stocking charges by contacting us from time to time
6. We cannot consider any request to cancel an order unless you return the goods to us with the original invoice number. If we initially agree to accept delivery of any returned goods, you acknowledge that is to inspect the goods to see if they are in good working order and condition and to ensure it is commercially realistic for us to re-sell the goods, and this does not mean we are bound to agree with the requested cancellation.
7. Goods supplied to special order are not returnable.
8. We do not accept cancellation of any order for, or return of any used parts.

(c) We may terminate your right to resell them forthwith on written notice of termination being delivered to your place of business;

Stock you hold which meets the description of the stock on an invoice for which payment has not been made is in the absence of separate storage of goods and in the absence of evidence to the contrary treated as stock to which we have retained title.

The dept you owe to us at the date of repossession of stock is, as between the parties, taken to include any payment we have previously received which might be claimed void under any law relating to bankruptcy, liquidation or the protection of creditors. This is so whether or not a claim has been made.
