10. Distance selling regulations

If, notwithstanding the terms of Condition 19, the Customer is buying as a ‘consumer’, as defined in The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000, the Customer may, provided he or she has taken reasonable care of the Goods, return the Goods and be repaid the price paid in respect of them within 7 working days (excluding Saturday and Sunday and any UK Bank Holiday) of their delivery.

Following receipt of Goods which comply with this Condition 10, the Company will refund to the Customer the price paid in respect of the Goods.

11. Description

All specifications, drawings, illustrations, descriptions and particulars of weights, dimensions, capacity or other details including, without limitation, any statements regarding compliance with legislation or regulation (together “Descriptions”) wherever they appear (including without limitation in this Catalogue, on data sheets, application notes, despatch notes, invoices or packaging) are intended to give a general idea of the Supplies, but will not form part of the Contract. If the Description of any Goods differs from the manufacturer’s description, the latter shall be deemed to be correct. The Company shall take all reasonable steps to ensure the accuracy of Descriptions but relies on such information, if any, as may have been provided to it by its suppliers and accepts no liability in contract or tort or under statute or otherwise for any error in or omission from such Descriptions whether caused by the Company’s negligence or otherwise. The Company may make changes to the Supplies as part of a continuous programme of improvement or to comply with legislation. Without prejudice to this Condition 11, Customers are recommended to check the Company’s website for the latest descriptions of the Goods.

12. Risk and ownership

The risk of damage to or loss of Goods will pass to the Customer when the Goods are unloaded from the Company’s carriers at the Customer’s premises or at the point when the Goods are collected from the Company’s premises by the Customer or representative. Ownership of the Goods shall not pass to the Customer until the Company has received in full (in cash or cleared funds) all sums due from the Customer to the Company on any account whatsoever. Until ownership passes to the Customer, the Customer must hold the Goods on a fiduciary basis as the Company’s bailee. If payment is not received in full by the due date, or the Customer passes a resolution for winding up or a court shall make an order to that effect, or a receiver or administrator is appointed over any assets or the undertaking of the Customer or an execution or distress is levied against the Customer, the Company shall be entitled, without previous notice, to retake possession of the Goods and for that purpose to enter upon any premises occupied or owned by the Customer.
This Catalogue remains at all times the sole and exclusive property of the Company.

13. Performance and fitness for purpose

Unless any performance figures, tolerances or characteristics have been specifically and expressly warranted by a director of the Company in writing, the Company accepts no liability for any failure of the Supplies to comply with such criteria, whether attributable to the Company’s negligence or otherwise. The responsibility for ensuring that Supplies are sufficient and suitable for a particular purpose is the Customer’s, unless specifically stated in writing by a director of the Company. Any advice or recommendation given by an employee of the Company which is not confirmed in writing by a director of the Company is acted on entirely at the Customer’s risk and the Company shall not be liable for any such advice or recommendation which is not so confirmed. Except as set out in Condition 15(i), the liability of the Company to the Customer, should any warranty, statement, advice or recommendation confirmed in accordance with this Condition 13 prove to be incorrect, inaccurate or misleading, will be limited to the refund of the price paid for the Supplies or, at the Company’s option, the supply of replacement Supplies which are sufficient and suitable.

14. Warranty/Guarantee

The Company will endeavour to transfer to the Customer the benefit of any warranty or guarantee given by the manufacturer of Goods.
In addition, the Company will, free of charge, repair or, at the Company’s option, replace Goods or, in the case of Services, re-perform Services which are proved to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company to be damaged or defective due to faulty materials, workmanship or design. Software programs are supplied on the strict understanding that the Company does not warrant their function to be free from defects or error.
This obligation will not apply:
• if the defect arises because the Customer has altered or repaired such Goods without the written consent of the Company;
• because the Customer did not follow the manufacturers’ instructions for storage, usage, installation, use or maintenance of the Goods;
• if the Customer has failed to notify the Company of any defect in accordance with Condition 8 (above) where the defect should have been reasonably apparent on reasonable inspection; or
• if the Customer fails to notify the Company of the defect within the warranty duration specified when placing the order.
Any replacement Supplies made or Goods repaired under this Condition 14 will be guaranteed on these terms for any unexpired portion of the period of guarantee given on the original Supplies. Any Goods which have been replaced will belong to the Company.
The Customer grants to the Company and its employees, agents and representatives a right to enter onto its premises to effect any repair or replacement under this Condition 14. The Customer shall ensure that the Company’s employees, agents and representatives are provided with a safe and secure working environment while at its premises and the Customer shall be responsible for isolating any computers or processors requiring repair or replacement from its network and for making backup copies of any information on such computers or processors before the Company’s arrival on site.
Except as set out in 15(i), the Company’s sole obligation and liability, should any Supplies prove damaged or defective in accordance with this Condition 14, shall be limited to, at the Company’s option, the repair or replacement of the relevant Goods or the re-performance of the relevant Services or the refund of the price paid for the relevant Supplies.
Except as set out in 15(i) below and 8 above, this Condition is the Company’s sole obligation and the Customer’s sole remedy for defective Supplies and is accepted by the Customer in substitution for all express or implied representations, conditions or warranties, statutory or otherwise, as to the satisfactory quality, fitness for purpose or performance of the Goods (or any materials used in connection therewith) or the standard of workmanship of the Services and all such representations, conditions and warranties are excluded.

15. Exclusion of Liability

• Any statement made or not made or advice given or not given by or on behalf of the Company, including as to compliance with legislation or regulation; or
• Otherwise under the Contract.
And the Company hereby excludes to the fullest extent permissible at law all conditions, warranties and stipulations, express (other than those set out in these Conditions or given in accordance with Condition 13) or implied, statutory, customary or otherwise which but for such exclusion, would or might subsist in favour of the Customer.
Save as set out in Condition 15(i) the Company’s total liability in contract, tort, (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, misrepresentation or otherwise shall be limited to repairing or replacing Goods or in the case of Services, re-performing the Services or, at the Company’s option, refunding monies already paid in respect of the Supplies.
Each of the Company’s employees, agents and sub-contractors may rely on and enforce the exclusions and restrictions of liability in Conditions 8, 11, 13, 14 and 15 in that person’s own name and for that person’s own benefit.

If payment is not received in full by the due date, or the Customer passes a resolution for winding up or a court shall make an order to that effect, or a receiver or administrator is appointed over any assets or the undertaking of the Customer or an execution or distress is levied against the Customer, the Company shall be entitled, without previous notice, to retake possession of the Goods and for that purpose to enter upon any premises occupied or owned by the Customer.
This Catalogue remains at all times the sole and exclusive property of the Company.

13. Performance and fitness for purpose

Unless any performance figures, tolerances or characteristics have been specifically and expressly warranted by a director of the Company in writing, the Company accepts no liability for any failure of the Supplies to comply with such criteria, whether attributable to the Company’s negligence or otherwise. The responsibility for ensuring that Supplies are sufficient and suitable for a particular purpose is the Customer’s, unless specifically stated in writing by a director of the Company. Any advice or recommendation given by an employee of the Company which is not confirmed in writing by a director of the Company is acted on entirely at the Customer’s risk and the Company shall not be liable for any such advice or recommendation which is not so confirmed. Except as set out in Condition 15(i), the liability of the Company to the Customer, should any warranty, statement, advice or recommendation confirmed in accordance with this Condition 13 prove to be incorrect, inaccurate or misleading, will be limited to the refund of the price paid for the Supplies or, at the Company’s option, the supply of replacement Supplies which are sufficient and suitable.

14. Warranty/Guarantee

The Company will endeavour to transfer to the Customer the benefit of any warranty or guarantee given by the manufacturer of Goods.
In addition, the Company will, free of charge, repair or, at the Company’s option, replace Goods or, in the case of Services, re-perform Services which are proved to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company to be damaged or defective due to faulty materials, workmanship or design. Software programs are supplied on the strict understanding that the Company does not warrant their function to be free from defects or error.
This obligation will not apply:
• if the defect arises because the Customer has altered or repaired such Goods without the written consent of the Company;
• because the Customer did not follow the manufacturers’ instructions for storage, usage, installation, use or maintenance of the Goods;
• if the Customer has failed to notify the Company of any defect in accordance with Condition 8 (above) where the defect should have been reasonably apparent on reasonable inspection; or
• if the Customer fails to notify the Company of the defect within the warranty duration specified when placing the order.
Any replacement Supplies made or Goods repaired under this Condition 14 will be guaranteed on these terms for any unexpired portion of the period of guarantee given on the original Supplies. Any Goods which have been replaced will belong to the Company.
The Customer grants to the Company and its employees, agents and representatives a right to enter onto its premises to effect any repair or replacement under this Condition 14. The Customer shall ensure that the Company’s employees, agents and representatives are provided with a safe and secure working environment while at its premises and the Customer shall be responsible for isolating any computers or processors requiring repair or replacement from its network and for making backup copies of any information on such computers or processors before the Company’s arrival on site.
Except as set out in 15(i), the Company’s sole obligation and liability, should any Supplies prove damaged or defective in accordance with this Condition 14, shall be limited to, at the Company’s option, the repair or replacement of the relevant Goods or the re-performance of the relevant Services or the refund of the price paid for the relevant Supplies.
Except as set out in 15(i) below and 8 above, this Condition is the Company’s sole obligation and the Customer’s sole remedy for defective Supplies and is accepted by the Customer in substitution for all express or implied representations, conditions or warranties, statutory or otherwise, as to the satisfactory quality, fitness for purpose or performance of the Goods (or any materials used in connection therewith) or the standard of workmanship of the Services and all such representations, conditions and warranties are excluded.

15. Exclusion of Liability

• For breach of the Company’s obligations under section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 or section 2 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982;

• Any of the Supplies, or the manufacture, sale, performance or supply or failure or delay in performance or supply of the Supplies by the Company or on part of the Company’s employees, agents or sub-contractors;
• Any breach by the Company of any of the express or implied terms of the Contract;
• Any use made or resale or on-supply of any of the Supplies or any product incorporating any of the Goods or developed using the Supplies;
• Any acts or omissions of the Company at the Customer’s premises;
• Any statement made or not made or advice given or not given by or on behalf of the Company, including as to compliance with legislation or regulation; or
• Otherwise under the Contract.
And the Company hereby excludes to the fullest extent permissible at law all conditions, warranties and stipulations, express (other than those set out in these Conditions or given in accordance with Condition 13) or implied, statutory, customary or otherwise which but for such exclusion, would or might subsist in favour of the Customer.
Save as set out in Condition 15(i) the Company’s total liability in contract, tort, (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, misrepresentation or otherwise shall be limited to repairing or replacing Goods or in the case of Services, re-performing the Services or, at the Company’s option, refunding monies already paid in respect of the Supplies.
Each of the Company’s employees, agents and sub-contractors may rely on and enforce the exclusions and restrictions of liability in Conditions 8, 11, 13, 14 and 15 in that person’s own name and for that person’s own benefit.

If there is any conflict between
• the other provisions of this Catalogue and these Conditions; or
• the provisions of the order and these Conditions
these Conditions will prevail unless the Company agrees otherwise in writing. Together with any terms accepted by the Company in connection with an order, these Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the Company and the Customer in relation to the Supplies ordered. No variation to these Conditions is permitted unless expressly authorised in writing by a director of the Company.

3. Prices

The Company has used all reasonable endeavours to ensure that prices for Supplies are accurately set out in the Catalogue but reserves the right to change its prices without notice at any time. Prices charged will be those prevailing when an order is accepted.

4. Payment

Payment terms are agreed at the time of order. The Company reserves the right to request payment in advance. Time for payment is of the essence. If the Customer fails to make payment by the due date then, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, the Company shall be entitled to:
i. cancel the order or suspend any further deliveries or performance;
ii. appropriate any payment made by the Customer to such of the Supplies (or the Supplies made under any other contract) as the Company may think fit; and

6. Orders

The Company reserves the right to decline to trade with any company or person. Once accepted, no order may be cancelled without the prior written agreement of a director of the Company. Without limiting the generality of this, orders for Goods which are not in catalogue or non stock items may not be cancelled unless agreed in writing with a director of the company.
Orders for Goods are usually accepted by the Company by despatching the Goods provided, however, that despatch will not be acceptance where the price for the Supplies has been incorrectly quoted or referenced by the Customer in its order.

7. Delivery

Save as set out below, the Company will use all reasonable endeavours to despatch Goods ordered before 4p.m. Monday to Friday or midday on Saturdays on the same day and all Goods ordered after such times the next working day, provided that those Goods are in stock.
Appropriate delivery charges will be applied where applicable.
Delivery will be made to the address specified by the Customer. The Company reserves the right to arrange delivery of Goods directly from the manufacturer or supplier of those Goods to the Customer. The Company may use any method of delivery available to it. The Company will use reasonable endeavours to meet delivery and/or performance estimates but, except as set out in 8 below, in no circumstances shall it be liable to compensate the Customer for non-delivery, non-performance or late delivery or performance. Time for delivery and/or performance will not be of the essence. The Company reserves the right to delay despatch for a number of reasons, including to perform any necessary credit or anti-fraud checks or procedures or to ensure that payment has been received in cleared funds in full. Where despatch is delayed for such reasons, the Company will use reasonable endeavours to inform the Customer.

8. Inspection, defects and non delivery

The Customer must inspect the Supplies as soon as is reasonably practicable after delivery or, in the case of Services, performance and, except as set out in 14 below, the Company shall not be liable for any defect in the Supplies unless written notice is given to the Company within 10 days of the date of inspection. The Company does not write software comprised in the Goods and it is the Customer’s responsibility to check for the presence of computer viruses before the Goods are used.
The quantity of any consignment of Goods, as recorded by the Company upon despatch from the Company’s place of business, shall be conclusive evidence of the quantity received by the Customer on delivery, unless the Customer can provide conclusive evidence to the contrary. The Company will not be liable for any non-delivery of Goods or non-performance of Services unless written notice is given to the Company within 10 days of the date when Goods should have been delivered or the Services performed in the ordinary course of events. Subject to condition 15(i) below, the liability of the Company for non-delivery or non-performance or for Goods notified as defective on delivery or Services notified as defective following performance in accordance with this Condition 8 will be limited to replacing the Goods or re-performing the Services within a reasonable time or to refunding the price then paid in respect of such Supplies.

9. Returns

Prior to returning any Goods to the Company for any reason, the Customer must contact the Company to obtain a returns authorisation number. All Goods are returned at the Customer’s risk and expense and should be undamaged by the Customer and in their original packaging and fit for re-sale. The Customer is responsible for returning Goods to the Company and for providing proof of delivery of such return.
The Company operates a 14 day return policy. To be accepted for return on this basis, Goods should be returned for receipt by the Company within 14 days of despatch. The Customer should return the Goods to Shrink and Stretch Limited, Unit 35, Lomashaye Business Village, Turner Road, Nelson, Lancashire, BB9 7DR, UK, clearly quoting the returns authorisation number and order number on the outside of the package.
Any Goods returned after 14 days as ‘unwanted’ or ‘incorrectly ordered’ may be accepted at the discretion of the Company but will be subject to a minimum restocking fee of 20% of the invoice value of the Goods or £10, whichever is the greater.

10. Distance selling regulations

If, notwithstanding the terms of Condition 19, the Customer is buying as a ‘consumer’, as defined in The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000, the Customer may, provided he or she has taken reasonable care of the Goods, return the Goods and be repaid the price paid in respect of them within 7 working days (excluding Saturday and Sunday and any UK Bank Holiday) of their delivery. To return Goods on this basis, the Customer must notify the Company in writing and return the Goods, in their original packaging, within the 7 day period to “Shrink and Stretch Limited, Unit 35, Lomashaye Business Village, Turner Road, Nelson, Lancashire, BB9 7DR, UK,” clearly quoting the returns authorisation number, Customer’s account number and order number on the outside of the package. Goods should be returned first class with proof of posting and the Customer is responsible for payment of all postage costs. In respect of certain Goods the Company may prefer to arrange collection itself and, if requested, the Customer will allow the Company to collect the Goods and will assist in the arrangements for the Goods’ collection. All reasonable costs of collection will be borne by the Customer. The Customer is responsible for the care and custody of the Goods pending their return or collection. Following receipt of Goods which comply with this Condition 10, the Company will refund to the Customer the price paid in respect of the Goods.
This Condition 10 shall not apply to software that has been unsealed by the Customer.

11. Description

All specifications, drawings, illustrations, descriptions and particulars of weights, dimensions, capacity or other details including, without limitation, any statements regarding compliance with legislation or regulation (together “Descriptions”) wherever they appear (including without limitation in this Catalogue, on data sheets, application notes, despatch notes, invoices or packaging) are intended to give a general idea of the Supplies, but will not form part of the Contract. If the Description of any Goods differs from the manufacturer’s description, the latter shall be deemed to be correct. The Company shall take all reasonable steps to ensure the accuracy of Descriptions but relies on such information, if any, as may have been provided to it by its suppliers and accepts no liability in contract or tort or under statute or otherwise for any error in or omission from such Descriptions whether caused by the Company’s negligence or otherwise. The Company may make changes to the Supplies as part of a continuous programme of improvement or to comply with legislation. Without prejudice to this Condition 11, Customers are recommended to check the Company’s website for the latest descriptions of the Goods.

12. Risk and ownership

The risk of damage to or loss of Goods will pass to the Customer when the Goods are unloaded from the Company’s carriers at the Customer’s premises or at the point when the Goods are collected from the Company’s premises by the Customer or representative. Ownership of the Goods shall not pass to the Customer until the Company has received in full (in cash or cleared funds) all sums due from the Customer to the Company on any account whatsoever. Until ownership passes to the Customer, the Customer must hold the Goods on a fiduciary basis as the Company’s bailee. If payment is not received in full by the due date, or the Customer passes a resolution for winding up or a court shall make an order to that effect, or a receiver or administrator is appointed over any assets or the undertaking of the Customer or an execution or distress is levied against the Customer, the Company shall be entitled, without previous notice, to retake possession of the Goods and for that purpose to enter upon any premises occupied or owned by the Customer.
This Catalogue remains at all times the sole and exclusive property of the Company.

13. Performance and fitness for purpose

Unless any performance figures, tolerances or characteristics have been specifically and expressly warranted by a director of the Company in writing, the Company accepts no liability for any failure of the Supplies to comply with such criteria, whether attributable to the Company’s negligence or otherwise.

Any advice or recommendation given by an employee of the Company which is not confirmed in writing by a director of the Company is acted on entirely at the Customer’s risk and the Company shall not be liable for any such advice or recommendation which is not so confirmed. Except as set out in Condition 15(i), the liability of the Company to the Customer, should any warranty, statement, advice or recommendation confirmed in accordance with this Condition 13 prove to be incorrect, inaccurate or misleading, will be limited to the refund of the price paid for the Supplies or, at the Company’s option, the supply of replacement Supplies which are sufficient and suitable.

14. Warranty/Guarantee

The Company will endeavour to transfer to the Customer the benefit of any warranty or guarantee given by the manufacturer of Goods.
In addition, the Company will, free of charge, repair or, at the Company’s option, replace Goods or, in the case of Services, re-perform Services which are proved to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company to be damaged or defective due to faulty materials, workmanship or design. Software programs are supplied on the strict understanding that the Company does not warrant their function to be free from defects or error.
This obligation will not apply:
• if the defect arises because the Customer has altered or repaired such Goods without the written consent of the Company;
• because the Customer did not follow the manufacturers’ instructions for storage, usage, installation, use or maintenance of the Goods;
• if the Customer has failed to notify the Company of any defect in accordance with Condition 8 (above) where the defect should have been reasonably apparent on reasonable inspection; or
• if the Customer fails to notify the Company of the defect within the warranty duration specified when placing the order.

Except as set out in 15(i), the Company’s sole obligation and liability, should any Supplies prove damaged or defective in accordance with this Condition 14, shall be limited to, at the Company’s option, the repair or replacement of the relevant Goods or the re-performance of the relevant Services or the refund of the price paid for the relevant Supplies.
Except as set out in 15(i) below and 8 above, this Condition is the Company’s sole obligation and the Customer’s sole remedy for defective Supplies and is accepted by the Customer in substitution for all express or implied representations, conditions or warranties, statutory or otherwise, as to the satisfactory quality, fitness for purpose or performance of the Goods (or any materials used in connection therewith) or the standard of workmanship of the Services and all such representations, conditions and warranties are excluded.

15. Exclusion of Liability
