Conditions of making an online purchase
These conditions apply except so far as they are inconsistent with any
express agreement entered into between the Seller and the Buyer
before the delivery
– All products supplied are chargeable at the sale price ruling on the
date of delivery. Such price shall reflect any tax, duty or other
imposition in respect of the products (other than Value Added
Tax). Value Added Tax, if applicable, will be charged separately.
– Payment for supplies will be effected by cash on delivery or in
accordance with terms established from time to time by the Seller.
Interest on overdue amounts shall be payable at 3% above the
base lending rate of the Seller’s Bankers.
– Risk in the products shall pass to the Buyer on delivery but title on
the product shall remain in the Seller until payment in full has been
received by the Seller.
– Notice of any claim for damage, defect, variance of quality or
description, or shortage in quantity shall be given by the Buyer in
writing to the Seller within three days after the goods are delivered
or in the case of non-delivery of the whole of the consignment
within three days after receipt of Invoice and such notice shall
state where and when the goods may be inspected by the Seller.
The giving of such notice shall be a condition precedent to any
such claim and in respect of such damage, defect, variance or
shortage the buyer shall be liable to pay for the full quantity of the
goods to which the Invoice relates.
– Subject to Clause 4, the Seller will replace at its own expense any
products which differ in quality or description on delivery from the
products agreed to be sold. All warranties and conditions
expressed or implied by statute or otherwise are excluded and the
Seller shall not be further liable in respect of injury loss or damage
consequential upon the sale or delivery of the products.
– The Seller shall not be responsible for any failure to make
deliveries if fulfilment has been delayed, hindered or prevented by
any circumstances whatsoever which are not within the Seller’s
immediate control.
– If the Buyer defaults on payment of monies due, the Seller shall
have the right to enter upon any premises where the products are
located and take possession of and remove same.
– Should the price be increased as a result of war, international
dispute or by virtue of an order of any local or national government
or authority, the cost of such increase shall be borne by the Buyer.
– Notwithstanding the agreement on price as defined in Clause 6.1
hereof, unless otherwise agreed, the quantity of product that the
Seller will sell to the Buyer will be the temperature corrected
quantity as at 15 degrees Celsius. This temperature correction
shall apply at all supply locations where the temperature corrected
quantity information is available to the Seller. Where the quantity is
not the temperature corrected quantity as at 15 degrees Celsius,
the Buyer shall accept the quantity of product indicated by the
Seller meter or dip rod as having been discharged from the Seller’s
tank.
– It is the Buyers responsibility to ensure at the time of delivery that
he / she receives the quantity and kind of product ordered. The
Buyer expressly waives and forgoes any claim, right or entitlement
against the Seller in respect of any wrong or short delivery for
which he / she does not give written notice to the Seller at the time
of delivery.
– Supply locations will include inter alia delivery vehicles, storage
locations operated by the Seller and storage locations where the
buyer loads product using the Seller’s account.
– The price to be paid by the Buyer in respect of the product
contracted to be purchased shall be the price ruling on date of
delivery of order unless specifically agreed in writing between the
Company and the Buyer, for the price to be based on the date of
order. The Company reserves the right to reprice the product
based on movement in commodity pricing between the date of
delivery and date of order, unless a prior written agreement is in
place. In the event of the product being increased by a tax, levy or
other such similar increase, the price of the product contracted to
be purchased by the Buyer shall be increased by such relevant
increase.
– No agent or employee of the Seller is permitted to alter or vary
these Conditions in any way unless expressly authorised to do so
by the Seller. If the Buyer fails to adhere to these conditions, the
Seller shall be entitled to stop further deliveries under accepted or
partly completed orders.
– The Seller does not accept responsibility for the dipping, checking
or testing of the Buyer’s tanks. This, together with the obligation to
see that the truck operator couples up with the correct feed on the
buyer’s tank, rests entirely with the Buyers. The Buyer shall also
be responsible for ensuring that the storage into which the delivery
is made will accommodate the full quantity ordered.
– The Seller’s measure of quantity shall be accepted by the Buyer
and in the case of re-heating oil it shall correct at standard litres at
15 Degrees Celsius, the Seller’s reading of which shall be
conclusive. The Seller does not accept any responsibility for
discrepancies in the Buyer’s tanks, dip rod or other measuring
devices. It is a condition of every bulk sale that the quantity shown
by the Seller’s dip rod or other measuring device employed shall,
for the purpose of accounts, be accepted by the Buyer as the
quantity delivered. The Buyer may be represented at the taking of
the measurements in order to verify them if he so desires. If on
delivery the Buyer or any representative of the Buyer, whether or
not for the purpose of verifying the Seller’s measurements of
quantity for the delivery, mounts any tank used on that delivery,
the Buyer or his representative shall do so at his own risk and the
Seller accepts no responsibility therefore.
– All products supplied are sold exclusively for the Buyer’s own use
and shall not be resold transferred or disposed of by the Buyer to
any other person private or commercial unless the products were
supplied by the Seller to the Buyer specifically for resale.
