THE CONTRACT
The contract for the sale of any product or service by The Green Office Ltd to the customer shall not be finalised until The Green office Ltd. accepts the order and issues a VAT invoice. The issue of an order confirmation is for the customer’s convenience only and does not constitute an acceptance of an order by The Green Office Ltd. That acceptance will be deemed for all purposes to have been effectively communicated to the customer at the time The Green Office Ltd. sends the email to the customer (whether or not the customer receives email). On acceptance of your order, we agree to sell to you and you agree to purchase from us the goods specified in the contract.
The Green Office Ltd. reserves the right to refuse any order. In the event that we do decline your order, for any reason, we will normally e-mail or telephone you to inform you, and let you know our reason/s.
We will not usually accept your order until we have received your full payment for the order including delivery charges and VAT.
If you have a credit account with us and your agreed credit limit has been reached we will not usually accept your order unless we receive sufficient payment from you to keep your account within the agreed credit limit.
THE GOODS
The goods will be the make and model of goods as specified in our web site and will correspond with the essential characteristics, description and specification as set out in our web site at the time of your order. We will not be responsible for any variations between the description of the goods as shown on our web site and the manufacturer's specifications, and in any such case the latter shall prevail. In addition we will not be responsible for minor variations in specification, colour or other design features, and no such minor variation shall entitle you to cancel your order, reject the goods or be the subject of any claim against us.
All Prices on The Website are Exlcusive of Vat where applicable at the appropriate rate.
RETENTION OF TITLE
The Green Office Ltd retains title to all goods delivered to the customer until such time as full payment has been received for these goods together with any other amount owing to us by the customer. Responsibility for the goods shall pass to the customer on delivery to the customer. You agree that we may still sue for the price, notwithstanding that title has not passed. You also agree that your right to possession and use of the goods shall cease if any amount payable by you under the contract becomes overdue, or you enter into liquidation or administration, and that we shall be entitled to enter any premises where the goods are kept for the purposes of repossessing them.
PRODUCT SUBSTITUTION
In the event that the goods ordered are out of stock, discontinued or are unavailable for any other reason, we reserves the right to substitute goods with goods of an equivalent nature (e.g. a black scissors for blue). You have the right to return the goods so substituted for a full refund, provided that they are returned to us within 7 days of their receipt
PRICES
Any reference to "List Price" or “Regular Price” used on this Site represents the manufacturers' "suggested retail selling price" and may not be indicative of the prevailing selling price at any specific time.
All prices quoted are exclusive of V.A.T. and delivery charges.
"Our Price" and “Special Price” refers to our current selling price and we strive to keep all our prices up to date and accurate on our website. However, despite this, a product could, inadvertently, be priced incorrectly. In the event of this happening and the correct price is lower than our quoted price, we will charge the lower price.
If the correct price is higher than our quoted price, we reserve the right to refuse or cancel any such order whether or not the order has been confirmed and your credit card charged. In the event that your order has been confirmed and/or your credit card has been charged, we will notify you and give you the option of accepting the order at the higher price or cancelling the order. If you choose to cancel the order, a refund of the full amount charged for the substituted product/s will be made if your credit card has been charged. We may, however, at our discretion, honour the lower price.
All references to “your savings"or “savings” on this Site, are based on your average savings relative to the "list price” or “regular price” excluding the VAT calculation.
You agree to pay the total price, including delivery charges and VAT in accordance with the terms of the contract.
