TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

By placing an order with us you are agreeing to and accepting these Terms and
Conditions.
1. ACCEPTANCE OF ORDERS
1.1 All business is transacted between us and customers or prospective customers on
these conditions. Conditions proposed by the customer shall apply only when they are
expressly accepted by us in writing.
1.2 Placing an order does not constitute our acceptance of the order. Acceptance is
only granted when we have confirmed (by email or in writing) the order. We reserve the
right to decline acceptance of any order. Any order placed by a customer shall constitute
an offer open for acceptance by us at any time until a written notice withdrawing the
order is received by us.
1.3 All items are subject to availability. Customers will be advised should a product be
out of stock, and will retain the option to cancel should the delivery period be
lengthened.
2. PRICES
2.1 All orders will be deemed to be at the advertised price for the goods at the point of
confirming your order, unless agreed otherwise. All prices are subject to change without
notice.
2.2 All prices stated are net of VAT, other taxes, insurance, transport and packing
unless specified otherwise.
3. DELIVERY
3.1 Delivery will be to the address stated in the order unless specified otherwise.
3.2 Dates and times for delivery are given in good faith, but do not constitute part of the
agreement. We shall not be liable for loss or damage caused by failure to deliver at the
stated time.
3.3 The customer may cancel an order if the goods have not in the meantime been
despatched, or been ordered specially for the customer, or specially built for the
customer.
3.3 Damage or Loss in transit: Goods shall be deemed to have been delivered free of
any defect or shortage which would be apparent upon inspection at delivery, unless the
customer upon delivery makes a note of it on the delivery note countersigned by the
carrier and notifies us in writing the same day.
3.4 Defects or shortages on unpacking: Any problems apparent on unpacking must be
reported to us in writing within 7 days of receipt of the delivery. After this, Tele-Products
will not accept any claims for shortages or damages.
3.5 In the case of any such defect which might be the subject of a claim against a third
party (such as the carrier or an insurance company) we shall have no liability unless the
customer in addition to notifying us as aforesaid carries out all such steps as are
necessary (and as the customer having made enquiry knows of) to enable a claim to be
brought against such third party. In any such case we shall not be liable in respect of
any such claim unless the customer keeps the goods the subject matter of the claim in
the same state as they were in when the subject matter of the claim was discovered until
we and/or any relevant third party have had a reasonable opportunity to inspect them.
3.6 Subject to defects noted as above, customers will be deemed to have accepted
(and thereby to have lost the right to reject) all goods once they have been unpacked.
3.7 We shall have no liability for non-delivery of goods actually despatched unless
informed in writing within 7 days of the date by which the customer might reasonably
have expected the goods to be delivered.
3.8 Risk shall pass to the customer upon delivery of the goods or (where a customer is
to collect goods from us) on the date that we have given the customer to collect the
goods (whether or not the customer collects them on that date).
3.9 Delivery charges vary depending on the type and quantity of products ordered and
the service you select. For full details of our current delivery charges please contact
sales or refer to the “Delivery options” section on our website. Large quantity orders may
incur additional charges over and above the amounts detailed on our website - contact
sales for exact charges.
4. PAYMENT
4.1 Payment is required prior to the goods being despatched unless credit terms have
been expressly agreed. This applies notwithstanding a previous course of dealing on
credit, even in connection with previous consignments of the same order. Credit terms
may be amended or withdrawn at any time.
4.2 Invoice payments shall be in UK pounds sterling (GBP) free of deductions and bank
charges to our nominated UK bank, unless agreed otherwise in writing.
4.3 We reserve the right to charge interest at 2% per month compounded monthly on
all sums not paid when they fall due, calculated on the balance from time to time
outstanding, as well after as before judgement.
4.4 We reserve the right (by way of liquidated damages) to make an administration
charge in respect of each invoice not paid within 14 days of its due date. The charge

4.5 Where money is owed to us on several accounts we may allocate any money
received to any such account notwithstanding any purported allocation made by the
customer.
4.6 Where credit terms have been agreed they shall be automatically cancelled and all
outstanding debts shall fall immediately due and payable in the event of any money not
being paid on the due date.
4.7 If, at a time when any money is due by the customer to us, any amount is due by us
to the customer or to any company then in the group (as defined in the Companies Act)
of which the customer is a member, we shall have the right at our option to set off the
one amount against the other and the customer as agent for all companies now or
hereafter in its group consents thereto.
5. REFUNDS FOR RETURN OF GOODS
5.1 Full money back (excluding the cost of shipping) for returned goods is available
provided the customer contacts Sales within 14 days of receipt. The product must be

the full cost of returning the goods. Tele-Products Ltd cannot be held liable for any
goods which on being returned to us by the customer are lost in transit.

customer.

returns the goods with missing accessories or in a damaged state.
5.5 In refunding any monies, we may retain an administrative cost if the customer has

6. PROPERTY IN GOODS
6.1 Notwithstanding risk having passed, title in goods shall not pass until payment has
been received by us in full for the relevant goods.
6.2 We shall have the right to retain or recover all goods in which we have title and

reasonably believe the goods to be situated for that purpose and the customer will
indemnify us for all costs, claims and expenses arising.
6.3 So long as the title to goods supplied to the customer remains vested in us, the
customer shall have the right to use (including selling) the goods in the ordinary course
of its business (but not further or otherwise) but shall if so directed by us keep our goods
separate from other goods and labelled to indicate our ownership of them and where
goods are sold shall remit the proceeds thereof as our trustee to an account designated
by us.

in relation to particular goods.

a. the customer informs us immediately upon becoming aware of any matter which
may give rise to a claim
b. the customer keeps the goods in the same state and condition as when he
became aware of the said matter and deals with it thereafter only as directed by us
(including, if so requested, returning it carriage paid to us).
7.6 Where a valid claim is made our liability shall be confined to (at our election)
repairing or replacing the defective goods. We shall in no event be liable to compensate
the customer or any third party for any loss or damage caused by the defect nor for any
consequential loss however caused.

have been caused by misuse, the customer may be charged a handling fee.

shall have the right to pass on to the sub-purchaser the benefit of this warranty for the
non expired period thereof, but shall indemnify us against any further or additional claim
received from any such sub- purchaser and also against any claim received from such
sub-purchaser where the defect in question occurred at a time after the goods had
ceased to be at our risk.
