3.1 The Seller will endeavour to deliver the goods to be supplied under the contract ("the Goods" which expression includes any of them or any part of them) within the time agreed and if no time is agreed within a reasonable time, but in no circumstances will the Seller be liable for loss or damage of any kind whatsoever caused directly or indirectly by any delay in the delivery of the Goods.

However, notwithstanding delivery and the passing of risk in the Goods, title and property in the Goods, including full legal and beneficial ownership, shall not pass to the Buyer until the Seller has received in cash or cleared funds payment in full for all Goods delivered to the Buyer under this and all other contracts between the Seller and the Buyer for which payment of the Goods thereunder has not been paid.

6. Price

6.1 The contract price is based on the costs of materials, labour, sub-contracts, transport, taxes and duties and ruling at the date of the quotation. The Seller reserves the right to amend the contract price to take account of any variations in these costs or the imposition of any new taxes or duties occurring from whatever cause before the Buyer has accepted a quotation.

7. Payment

7.1 Payment terms are stated on every quotation and invoice issued by the Seller to the Buyer.

7.1.1 Where no account has been agreed by the Seller the Goods will not be produced or delivered until the Seller is paid the amount shown on the pro-forma invoice relating to the Goods.

7.1.2 Where an account has been agreed the Seller may at its absolute discretion set and alter the Buyer's credit limit and the Seller reserves the right not to deliver the Goods if the price thereof increases the amount owed by the Buyer to the Seller beyond the Buyer's credit limit.

7.1.3 When an account has been agreed and the price of the Goods together with all other indebtedness of the Buyer to the Seller does not exceed the Buyer's credit limit, the price will become payable upon delivery and payment will be made by the Buyer in accordance with the terms on the Seller's invoice otherwise agreed in writing.

7.4 Where the Buyer makes default under the contract or any other contract with the Seller in payment on the due date of any sum to the Seller, the Seller without liability may postpone any delivery or may cancel the contract or any other contract between the Seller and the Buyer but without prejudice to any right or remedy which the Seller may have against the Buyer in respect of such default.

7.5 The Seller will be entitled to payment for all instalments of Goods delivered to the Buyer whether under a blanket order or otherwise.

7.6 The Seller shall at any time be entitled to appropriate any payment made by the Buyer in respect of any Goods in settlement of such invoices or accounts in respect of such goods as the Seller may in its absolute discretion think fit notwithstanding any purported appropriation to the contrary by the Buyer.

10. Storage

If the Buyer fails to take delivery of the Goods when they are ready for delivery the Seller may, at its option, either store them itself or have them stored by third parties on such terms as the Seller may in its absolute discretion think fit. In any event the cost of storage will be borne by the Buyer and insofar as the storage is done by the Seller then such cost will be the Seller's storage charges current at the time of storage. The cost together with any additional insurance or double handling charges will be added to and form part of the price for the Goods.

11. Right of Re-Sale

If the Buyer defaults in accepting delivery of or paying for the Goods, the Seller reserves the right to re-sell the Goods or any of them to a third-party without giving notice to the Buyer of the Seller's intention to re-sell.
