5.2 The Seller reserves the right to change the Price if a variation to the Seller's quotation is requested. Any variation from the plan of scheduled services or specifications or design (including, but not limited to, any variation as a result of availability of stock, overseas transactions that may increase as a consequence of variations in foreign currency rates of exchange and/or international freight and insurance charges or increases to the Seller in the cost of materials and labour) will be charged for on the basis of the Seller's quotation and will be shown as variations on the invoice. Payment for all variations must be made in full at their time of completion.

6.2 At the Seller's sole discretion the cost of delivery is included in the Price.
6.3 The Seller 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.
6.4 Any time or date given by the Seller to the Client is an estimate only. The Client must still accept delivery of the Goods even if late and the Seller will not be liable for any loss or damage incurred by the Client as a result of the delivery being late.

7. Risk
7.1 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.
7.2 If any of the Goods are damaged or destroyed following delivery but prior to ownership passing to the Client, the Seller is entitled to receive all insurance proceeds payable for the Goods. The production of these terms and conditions by the Seller is sufficient evidence of the Seller's rights to receive the insurance proceeds without the need for any person dealing with the Seller to make further enquiries.
7.3 If the Client requests the Seller to leave Goods outside the Seller'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.
7.4 In the event the Client supplies information relating to measurements and quantities of Goods required in completing the Services, it shall be the Client's responsibility to verify the accuracy of the measurements and quantities, before the Client or the Seller places an order based on these measurements and quantities. The Seller accepts no responsibility for any loss, damages, or costs however resulting from the Client's failure to comply with this clause.
7.5 Where the Client supplies products, adequate quantities shall be supplied to cover spoilage. Products and other materials shall not be counted or checked when received unless requested by the Client in writing. An additional charge may be made by the Seller in respect of any such counting or checking requested by the Client.
7.6 In the event that the counting of stock supplied by the Client does not take place as per clause 7.5 and stock quantities are less than the total number agreed upon for printing, then the Client agrees to indemnify the Seller against any additional costs such as the re-setting of printing machines to complete the Services, additional charges shall be invoiced in accordance with clause 5.2.
7.7 Where the Seller gives advice or recommendations to the Client, or the Clients agent, regarding the suitability of the Client's stock to be supplied and such advice or recommendations are not acted upon, then the Seller shall require the Client or their agent to authorise commencement of the Services in writing. Whilst every care is taken by the Seller to carry out the instructions of the Client, the Seller shall not be liable in any way whatsoever for any damages or losses (including but not limited to, any damage or loss caused, such as, dye sublimation, scorching, decolouration, shrinkage and/or dirt marks) that occur due to poor quality of stock supplied by the Client after commencement of the Services.
7.8 The Seller shall not be held liable for inks wearing off through general wear and tear.
7.9 Whilst every care is taken by the Seller to carry out the instructions of the Client, it is the Clients responsibility to undertake a final proof reading of the Goods. The Seller shall be under no liability whatsoever for any errors not corrected by the Client in the final proof reading. Should the Client's alterations require additional proofs this shall be invoiced as an extra.
7.10 The Seller is under no obligation to provide samples of Goods ordered other than by virtual (computerised) sample. Whilst every effort will be taken by the Seller to match virtual colours with physical colours, the Seller will take no responsibility for any variation between virtual sale samples and either the virtual sale sample displayed on the Client's computer and/or the final product. In the event that a physical sample is required this will be provided on request by the Client and will be charged for as an extra including return freight, the additional charge will be detailed separately in the final invoice.

8. Fabric Risk
8.1 The Client acknowledges and accepts that:
(a) whilst fabric manufacturers make every effort to match dye lots, colours or shade may vary between batches of product and/or between sales samples and actual product supplied; and
(b) fabric manufacturers cannot guarantee to produce perfectly uniform patterned product, therefore there is no guarantee that patterned product will match perfectly when installed or sewn.

9. Access
9.1 The Client shall ensure that the Seller has clear and free access to the work site at all times to enable them to deliver the Goods. The Seller shall not be liable for any loss or damage to the site (including, without limitation, damage to pathways, driveways and concreted or paved or grassed areas) unless due to the negligence of the Seller.

10. Title
10.1 The Seller and the Client agree that ownership of the Goods shall not pass until:
(a) the Client has paid the Seller all amounts owing to the Seller; and
(b) the Client has met all of its other obligations to the Seller.
10.2 Receipt by the Seller of any form of payment other than cash shall not be deemed to be payment until that form of payment has been honoured, cleared or recognised.
10.3 It is further agreed that:
(a) until ownership of the Goods passes to the Client in accordance with clause 10.1 that the Client is only a bailee of the Goods and must return the Goods to the Seller on request.
(b) the Client holds the benefit of the Client's insurance of the Goods on trust for the Seller and must pay to the Seller the proceeds of any insurance in the event of the Goods being lost, damaged or destroyed.
(c) the Client must not sell, dispose, or otherwise part with possession of the Goods other than in the ordinary course of business and for market value. If the Client sells, disposes or parts with possession of the Goods then the Client must hold the proceeds of any such act on trust for the Seller and must pay or deliver the proceeds to the Seller on demand.
(d) the Client should not convert or process the Goods or intermix them with other goods but if the Client does so then the Client holds the resulting product on trust for the benefit of the Seller and must sell, dispose of or return the resulting product to the Seller as it so directs.
(e) the Client irrevocably authorises the Seller to enter any premises where the Seller believes the Goods are kept and recover possession of the Goods.
(f) the Seller may recover possession of any Goods in transit whether or not delivery has occurred.
(g) the Client shall not charge or grant an encumbrance over the Goods nor grant nor otherwise give away any interest in the Goods while they remain the property of the Seller.
(h) the Seller may commence proceedings to recover the Price of the Goods sold notwithstanding that ownership of the Goods has not passed to the Client.
