2. Application of Terms

Please note that in some cases, the Company accepts orders as agents on behalf of third party suppliers and this will be confirmed during the order process. The resulting legal contract between the Buyer and that third party will be subject to these terms and conditions. In particular, issues regarding non-delivery, quality and liability will be determined in accordance with these conditions and will be dealt with by Dash4it.

In other cases we may accept orders which are satisfied by third party suppliers and this will be confirmed during the order process. The resulting legal contract is between the Company and the Buyer, and is subject to these conditions. In particular, issues regarding non-delivery, quality and liability will be determined in accordance with these conditions and will be dealt with by Dash4it.

2.1 Subject to any variation under condition 2.3 the Contract shall be on these conditions to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions (including any terms or conditions which the Buyer purports to apply under any purchase order, confirmation of order, specification or other document).

2.2 No terms or conditions endorsed on, delivered with or contained in the Buyer’s purchase order, confirmation of order, specification or other document shall form part of the Contract simply as a result of such document being referred to in the Contract.

2.3 These conditions apply to all the Company’s sales and any variation to these conditions and any representations about the Goods shall have no effect unless expressly agreed in writing and signed by a Director of the Company. The Buyer acknowledges that it has not relied on any statement, promise or representation made or given by or on behalf of the Company which is not set out in the Contract. Nothing in this condition shall exclude or limit the Company's liability for fraudulent misrepresentation.

2.4 Each order or acceptance of a quotation for Goods by the Buyer from the Company shall be deemed to be an offer by the Buyer to buy Goods subject to these conditions.

2.5 When placing an order through the Company’s Website:

(a) after placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy the Goods. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the Goods have been dispatched (the Dispatch Confirmation). The Contract will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation; and

(b) the Contract will relate only to those Goods whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Goods which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such Products has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.

(a) no order placed by the Buyer shall be deemed to be accepted by the Company until a written acknowledgement of order is issued by the Company or (if earlier) the Company delivers the Goods to the Buyer;

(b) the Buyer shall ensure that the terms of its order and any applicable specification are complete and accurate; and

(c) any quotation is given on the basis that no Contract shall come into existence until the Company dispatches an acknowledgement of order to the Buyer. Any quotation is valid for a period of 30 days only from its date, provided that the Company has not previously withdrawn it.
