Hallis Hudson cannot guarantee that the device's display of colours accurately reflects the colours of the Goods.

1.3 These Conditions apply to the Contract to the exclusion of any other terms that the Customer seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing. Any quotation given by Hallis Hudson and any prices stated in any brochure price list, catalogue or website shall not constitute an offer, and is only an indication which must be confirmed by Hallis Hudson.

Hallis Hudson reserves the right to amend the Bespoke Goods Specification if required by any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement, and Hallis Hudson shall use reasonable endeavours to notify the Customer in any such event.

2.2 Where Bespoke Goods are to be manufactured, the Customer shall indemnify Hallis Hudson against all liabilities, costs, expenses, damages and losses (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit, loss of reputation and all interest, penalties and legal costs (calculated on a full indemnity basis) and all other professional costs and expenses) suffered or incurred by Hallis Hudson arising out of or in connection with any claim made against Hallis Hudson for actual or alleged infringement of a third party’s Intellectual Property Rights arising out of or in connection with Hallis Hudson’s use of the Bespoke Goods Specification. This clause 2.2 shall survive termination of the Contract.

3.4 Hallis Hudson is able to deliver to certain countries outside of the United Kingdom (“International Delivery Location”). However, there may be restrictions on certain Goods for certain countries, so the Customer must contact Hallis Hudson before ordering Goods for delivery to any International Delivery Location to check whether Hallis Hudson is able to deliver to the Customer’s preferred country or location.

3.5 The Customer shall be responsible for payment of any import duties and taxes which are applied when the Goods reach the International Delivery Location.

3.7 Unless Hallis Hudson agrees that the Customer may collect the Goods, Hallis Hudson shall deliver the Goods to the location set out in the Order or such other location as the parties may agree (“Delivery Location”) at any time after Hallis Hudson notifies the Customer that the Goods are ready. Delivery of the Goods shall be completed on the arrival of the Goods at the Delivery Location.

3.8 Hallis Hudson shall have no liability for any failure to deliver the Goods (or any part of an Order) to the extent that such failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Customer’s failure to provide Hallis Hudson with adequate delivery instructions for the Goods, any relevant instruction related to the supply of the Goods or any other Customer default.

3.9 Subject to clause 3.8 (a) where Hallis Hudson has agreed to deliver Goods in accordance with clause 3.1 if Hallis Hudson fails to deliver the Goods on the agreed date, the Customer shall notify Hallis Hudson by telephone or fax by 4 pm on the Business Day following the day upon which delivery of the Goods was due to claim for compensation. Compensation shall be limited to a maximum of £7.20 (seven pounds and twenty pence) which the parties agree reflects a fair and reasonable compensation for the delay.

Hallis Hudson’s liability for a failure to deliver on the agreed date shall be limited to the compensation detailed in this clause; (b) in respect of any deficient delivery or missing Goods subject to an Order, the Customer shall notify Hallis Hudson by telephone within 24 hours of the date upon which part of the Order was delivered (“Notification Date”) and shall confirm such non-delivery in writing within 3 days of the Notification Date.

3.11 If the Customer fails to notify Hallis Hudson in accordance with clause 3.9, the Goods shall be deemed to have been delivered in accordance with the terms of the Contract and Hallis Hudson shall have no liability in respect thereof.

3.12 If the Customer fails to take delivery of the Goods within three (3) Business Days of Hallis Hudson attempting delivery, then except where such failure or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event or by Hallis Hudson’s failure to comply with its obligations under the Contract in respect of the Goods: (a) delivery of the Goods shall be deemed to have been completed at 9.00 am on the third Business Day following the day on which Hallis Hudson notified the Customer that the Goods were ready; and (b) Hallis Hudson shall store the Goods until delivery takes place and charge the Customer for all related costs and expenses (including insurance).

3.13 If ten (10) Business Days after Hallis Hudson notified the Customer that the Goods were ready for delivery the Customer has not taken delivery of them, Hallis Hudson may resell or otherwise dispose of part or all of the Goods and, after deducting reasonable storage and selling costs, account to the Customer for any excess over the price of the Goods or charge the Customer for any shortfall below the price of the Goods. Hallis Hudson may deliver the Goods in instalments, which shall be invoiced and paid for separately. Each instalment shall constitute a separate contract. Any delay in delivery or defect in an instalment shall not entitle the Customer to cancel any other instalment.

3.14 Hallis Hudson may (in its sole discretion) permit the Customer to return Goods after delivery provided always that: (a) the Goods have not been removed from their packaging or in any way handled, modified or installed (such that they are no longer in a saleable condition (in the opinion of Hallis Hudson)); (b) the Goods are not Bespoke Goods; (c) the Goods are returned to Hallis Hudson at the Customer’s cost within 30 days of delivery; and (d) the Customer pays to Hallis Hudson a restocking fee of the higher of £18 and 18% of the total price of the Goods being returned.

4.2 Subject to clause 4.3, Hallis Hudson shall, at its option, repair or replace the defective Goods, or refund the price of the defective Goods in full if the Customer gives notice in writing within fourteen (14) days of delivery in respect of a defect that is apparent on visual inspection that some or all of the Goods do not comply with the warranty set out in clause 4.1, Hallis Hudson is given a reasonable opportunity of examining such Goods, and the Customer (if asked to do so by Hallis Hudson) returns such Goods to Hallis Hudson’s place of business at the Customer’s cost.

4.3 Hallis Hudson shall not be liable for the Goods’ failure to comply with the warranty in clause 4.1 if the Customer makes any further use of such Goods after giving a notice in accordance with clause 4.2, the defect arises because the Customer failed to follow Hallis Hudson’s oral or written instructions as to the storage, installation, commissioning, cleaning, use or maintenance of the Goods or (if there are none) good trade practice, the defect arises as a result of Hallis Hudson following any drawing, design or Bespoke Goods Specification supplied by the Customer, the Customer alters or repairs such Goods without the written consent of Hallis Hudson, the defect arises as a result of fair wear and tear, wilful damage, negligence, or abnormal working conditions, the Goods differ from their description or the Bespoke Goods Specification as a result of changes made to ensure they comply with applicable statutory or regulatory standards.
