Delivery of Goods
  1. Delivery (“Delivery”) of the Goods is taken to occur at the time that:
    1. the Client or the Client’s nominated carrier takes possession of the Goods at Eltech’s address; or
    2. Eltech (or Eltech’s nominated carrier) delivers the Goods to the Client’s nominated address even if the Client is not present at the address.
  2. At Eltech’s sole discretion the cost of delivery is in addition to the Price.
  3. The Client must take delivery by receipt or collection of the Goods whenever they are tendered for delivery. In the event that the Client is unable to take delivery of the Goods as arranged then Eltech shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee for redelivery and/or storage.
  4. Eltech may deliver the Goods in separate instalments. Each separate instalment shall be invoiced and paid in accordance with the provisions in these terms and conditions.
  5. The costs of carriage and any insurance which the Client reasonably directs Eltech to incur shall be reimbursed by the Client (without any set-off or other withholding whatever) and shall be due on the date for payment of the Price. The carrier shall be deemed to be the Client’s agent.
  6. The Client shall take delivery of the Goods tendered notwithstanding that the quantity so delivered shall be either greater or less than the quantity purchased provided that;
    1. such discrepancy in quantity shall not exceed 10%, and
    2. the Price shall be adjusted pro rata to the discrepancy.
  7. Any time or date given by Eltech to the Client is an estimate

 

Risk
  1. Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods passes to the Client on Delivery and the Client must insure the Goods on or before Delivery.
  2. If any of the Goods are damaged or destroyed following delivery but prior to ownership passing to the Client, Eltech is entitled to receive all insurance proceeds payable for the Goods. The production of these terms and conditions by Eltech is sufficient evidence of Eltech’s rights to receive the insurance proceeds without the need for any person dealing with Eltech to make further enquiries.
  3. If the Client requests Eltech to leave Goods outside Eltech’s premises for collection or to deliver the Goods to an unattended location then such Goods shall be left at the Client’s sole risk.

 

Client’s Disclaimer
  1. The Client hereby disclaims any right to rescind, or cancel the contract or to sue for damages or to claim restitution arising out of any misrepresentation made to him by any servant or agent of the Company and the Client acknowledges that he buys the Goods relying solely upon his own skill and judgement and that the Company shall not be bound by nor responsible for any term, condition, representation or warranty other than the warranty given by the Manufacturer which warranty shall be personal to the Client and shall not be transferable to any subsequent Client.
