Comms Express Limited ("Comms Express") agrees to sell, to the person, firm or company ("the Buyer") identified on the order form, the goods ("the Goods") which the Buyer wishes to purchase from Comms Express on these conditions to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions (including any terms or conditions which the Buyer purports to apply under any purchase order, confirmation of order, specification or other document). Any contract (the "Contract") between Comms Express and the Buyer for the sale and purchase of the Goods shall incorporate these conditions.
No terms or conditions endorsed on, delivered with or contained in the Buyers purchase order, confirmation of order, specification or other document shall form part of the Contract simply as a result of such document being referred to in the Contract.
Any variations to these conditions shall have no effect unless expressly agreed in writing and signed by an authorised representative of Comms Express.
Each order or acceptance of a quotation for Goods by the Buyer from Comms Express shall be deemed to be an offer by the Buyer to buy Goods subject to these conditions. No order placed by the Buyer shall be deemed to be accepted by Comms Express until a written acceptance of order is issued by Comms Express or (if earlier) Comms Express delivers the Goods to the Buyer. Orders will only be accepted if there are no material errors in the description of the Goods or their prices, as provided in the price list published by Comms Express, in this case the website prices and/or the current brochure prices.
The quantity and description of the Goods shall be set out in Comms Express quotation or the Buyers order (if accepted by Comms Express).
The Buyer shall ensure that the terms of its order are complete and accurate.
Any quotation is given on the basis that no Contract shall come into existence until Comms Express despatches an acceptance of order to the Buyer. Any quotation is valid for a period of 30 days only from its date, provided that Comms Express has not previously withdrawn it.
All drawings, dimensions, weights, measurements and descriptive matter contained in Comms Express catalogue or website are published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Goods described in them. They shall not form part of the Contract.

Delivery shall take place and risk will pass when the Goods are collected by the Buyer or, if Comms Express is to deliver to the Buyers specified location, when the Goods are delivered to the Buyer. If Comms Express is unable to deliver the Goods on time because the Buyer has not provided appropriate instructions, documents, licences or authorisations, the Goods shall be deemed to have been delivered, the risk in the Goods shall pass to the Buyer (including for loss or damage caused by Comms Express negligence) and Comms Express may store the Goods until delivery, whereupon the Buyer shall be liable for all related costs and expenses (including, without limitation, storage and insurance).
Any dates specified by Comms Express for delivery of the Goods are intended to be an estimate and time for delivery shall not be made of the essence by notice.
Subject to the other provisions of these conditions, Comms Express shall not be liable for any direct, indirect or consequential loss (all three of which terms include, without limitation, pure economic loss, loss of profits, loss of business, depletion of goodwill and similar loss), costs, damages, charges or expenses caused directly or indirectly by any delay in the delivery of the Goods (even if caused by Comms Express negligence) nor shall any delay entitle the Buyer to terminate or rescind the Contract unless such delay exceeds 30 days.
The Buyer shall provide at the place where delivery of the Goods is to take place and at its expense adequate and appropriate equipment and manual labour for loading the Goods.
Comms Express may deliver the Goods by separate instalments. Each separate instalment shall be invoiced and paid for in accordance with the provisions of the Contract. Each instalment shall be a separate Contract and no cancellation or termination of any one Contract relating to an instalment shall entitle the Buyer to repudiate or cancel any other Contract or instalment.
The quantity of any consignment of Goods as recorded by Comms Express upon despatch from Comms Express place of business shall be conclusive evidence of the quantity received by the Buyer on delivery unless the Buyer can provide conclusive evidence proving the contrary.
Comms Express shall not be liable for any non-delivery or delay in delivery unless the Buyer gives written notice of the non-delivery or delay to Comms Express within three days of the date when the Goods would in the ordinary course of events have been received.
