General Terms and Conditions of Quotations and Sale
All goods and services are supplied on the terms and
conditions set out herein and no addition or variation to these terms and conditions
will have any effect unless expressly agreed in writing by Aarush Fabricator
(aarushfabricator.com).
1. Quotations
(a) Unless previously withdrawn, a quotation is valid for 30
days or such other period as stated in it. A quotation is not to be
construed as an obligation to sell but merely an invitation
to treat and no contractual relationship shall arise from it until the
Customer’s order has been accepted by Aarush Fabricator.
(b) Aarush Fabricator shall not be bound by any condition
attaching to the Customer’s order or acceptance of a Quotation and,
unless such conditions are expressly accepted by Aarush
Fabricator in writing, the Customer acknowledges that such conditions
are expressly negated.
(c)Cancellation of an order can be made only with consent
from Aarush Fabricator and upon terms that will compensate
Aarush Fabricator against loss.
(d) Change orders or briefing updates, amendments or changes
requested by the Customer shall not be effective unless accepted
in writing by Aarush Fabricator. The Customer shall be
liable for any costs, expenses, and liabilities incurred by Fabrication
Specialists in connection with any such change order.
2. Price
(a) Quoted prices do not include GST.
(b) Aarush Fabricator shall be entitled to vary the quoted
price for the goods and services at any time prior to delivery if the
cost to Aarush Fabricator of performing the contract is
increased and Aarush Fabricator reserves the right to apply prices
ruling at the time of providing the goods or services.
3. Terms of Payment
(a) The invoice amount for the goods and services must be
paid in full within seven (7) days after the goods and services were
invoiced.
(b) The Customer is not entitled to withhold payment or make
any deduction from the price of the goods and services (whether
by way of any set off, counterclaim, retention or otherwise)
from any money owing to Aarush Fabricator.
(c) If the Customer fails to pay for any of the goods or
services, Aarush Fabricator may in its absolute discretion, but without
prejudice to any other remedy it may have, postpone the
fulfilment of its obligations under this order or briefing and under any
other order or briefing with this Customer until such
payment is made and charge to the Customer any extra expense incurred
thereby.
4. Cancellation or
Suspension of Orders
Except where the Customer has a statutory right of
termination, orders accepted by Aarush Fabricator may not be cancelled
either wholly or in part without the consent in writing of Aarush
Fabricator.
5. Supply
(a) Aarush Fabricator will endeavour to meet agreed delivery
dates, but will not be held liable, nor may the buyer cancel any
order or any part of any order, for late delivery. Aarush
Fabricator reserves the right to cancel or suspend unconditionally and
without liability any contract and/or to reject any order.
(b) Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Aarush Fabricator,
the buyer will be responsible for arranging the carriage of goods,
and delivery of any particular goods will be deemed to have
been made when those goods are available for collection from the
collection point as agreed with the buyer, or in the absence
of agreement, as specified by Aarush Fabricator.
(c) Where Aarush Fabricator agrees to arrange the carriage
of goods:
unless otherwise expressly stated in writing by Aarush
Fabricator, prices estimated or quoted will not include the cost of delivery or
insurance and the buyer will be invoiced for any charges incurred by Aarush
Fabricator in carriage of goods;
delivery will be deemed to have been made when the goods
arrive at the delivery point agreed with the buyer;
if the buyer or its authorised agent is not present at the
delivery point when the goods are delivered, delivery will be deemed to have
been effected in any event;
the buyer is responsible for ensuring, at its own cost, that
all agreed delivery sites have unloading facilities together with labour and/or
mechanical means to unload the goods promptly and suitable access and area for
unloading and shall indemnify Aarush Fabricator against any loss, liability,
costs or expenses incurred by Aarush Fabricator or its agents in unloading the
goods;
any claim for goods damaged during unloading or damaged or
lost in transit must be made to Aarush Fabricator within 24 hours of delivery;
where any quotation or estimate given to the buyer includes
the cost of delivery, the price quoted or estimated will cover only the usual
methods of transportation used by Aarush Fabricator;
delivery may be by instalments and each instalment will be
treated as a separate contract under these conditions; and
if the buyer fails to take delivery of any goods at an
agreed delivery time, Aarush Fabricator may (without limiting any other right Aarush
Fabricator may have) charge the buyer for any waiting time for delays by the
buyer in unloading goods, handling charges for any unloading work carried out
by Aarush Fabricator, expenses for the storage, transportation or disposal of
the goods and any other additional expenses incurred in relation to the goods.
6. Reservation of
Title
(a) Title to good supplied shall remain vested in Aarush
Fabricator and shall not pass to the Customer until the purchase
price for the Goods has been paid in full and received by Aarush
Fabricator. Until title to the Goods passes:
Aarush Fabricator shall have authority to retake, sell or
otherwise deal with and/or dispose of all or any part of the Goods;
Aarush Fabricator and its agents and employees shall be
entitled at any time and without the need to give notice enter upon any
property upon which the Goods or any part are stored, or upon which Aarush
Fabricator reasonably believes them to be kept;
the Customer shall store or mark the Goods in a manner
reasonably satisfactory to Aarush Fabricator indicating that title to the Goods
remains vested in Aarush Fabricator; and
the Buyer shall insure the Goods to their full replacement
value and arrange for Aarush Fabricator to be noted on the\ policy of insurance
as the loss payee.
(b) Irrespective of whether title to the Goods remains
vested in Aarush Fabricator, risk in the Goods shall pass to the
Customer upon delivery.
7. Liability
(a) Any service or advice which may be offered by Aarush
Fabricator to the Customer is rendered in good faith and Fabrication
Specialists shall not be liable for any loss or damage
arising therefrom.
(b) For the avoidance of doubt, Aarush Fabricator will be
under no liability whatsoever to the Customer for any loss, injury or
damage (including consequential loss, injury or damage)
suffered or caused as a result of or arising out of any act or omission
(whether negligent or otherwise) by Aarush Fabricator, its
servants or agents or any other person in any way related to or arising out of
the Quotation by Aarush Fabricator.
8. Intellectual
Property
All copyright, design right and other intellectual property
in any design, specification, process, method of working or other
information relating to the Goods or Services (other than

time in Aarush Fabricator. Aarush Fabricator only grants to
the Customer an irrevocable license to use the Goods or Services for the
specified project in accordance with the Customers brief.
9. Claims
Any claim to reject the goods or to claim damages on the
grounds that the goods do not conform to the description by which they were
sold, must be notified in writing to Aarush Fabricator within seven days of
delivery of the goods to the buyer, failing which any such claim shall be
deemed conclusively to have been waived by the buyer.
10. Paramountcy
These General Terms and Conditions of Quotation and Sale
shall constitute the entire agreement between Aarush Fabricator
and the Customer and no terms, conditions, obligations or
other provisions of any nature not contained in these General Terms and
Conditions of Quotation and Sale shall be of any effect. For
the avoidance of doubt, these General Terms and Conditions of Quotation and
Sale shall apply in all circumstances, including where the Customer validly
accept this quotation or where the Customer and Aarush Fabricator otherwise
proceed with carrying out work under the brief, whether or not the Customer, at
any time and by any means, purports to impose its own terms and conditions.
