Prices

The price list shows our current prices that are effective from 1st March 2003. Prices charged will be those in force at the date of receipt of order, and exclude VAT where appropriate and delivery charges.

Damages/Shortagee/Non delivery

It is the customer�s duty wherever possible to inspect items upon delivery.

Ordering

Orders must be in writing by post of fax, but we cannot be held responsible for orders lost in the post or faxed orders which are subject to transmission errors. Telephone orders can only be accepted if an Official Order Number is quoted at the time of ordering. Orders must be legible and clearly state model number, width, colour and size.

Insrection prior to adaptation

Upon receipt of items ordered for adaptation by the Customer, it is the Customer�s duty to check that all items have been correctly supplied as regards model, colour, width, size, etc., before adaptations are undertaken. We will not be held responsible for items we have supplied incorrectly that have been adapted, where the item is not first checked on receipt.
