“Contract” means the contract for the sale and purchase of the Goods incorporating the agreed Order and these Terms;
“Goods” means the goods (including any instalment of the goods or any parts for them) which Risbridger agrees to supply in accordance with the Contract;
“Order” means Risbridger’s ‘Order Acknowledgement’ form, an acceptance response to the Buyer’s offer to buy Goods;

“Writing” and any similar expression, includes email and comparable means of communication.

All Orders are accepted by Risbridger and form the Contract only on the agreement that the Buyer agrees to the quotation (if any), its Order and these Terms (to the exclusion of any other different terms subject to which any such quotation or Order attempted by a Buyer for form part of the Contract, or any such Order is made, purported to be made or changed by the Buyer without Risbridgers’ prior Written consent.

Risbridger is only bound to a Contract once it has formally accepted the Buyer’s offer to purchase Goods by Risbridger issuing an Order which is subject to these Terms only.

Subject to clause 5 below, prices in an Order (or quotation) are for Goods to be supplied Ex-Works (as per Incoterms 2020) meaning carriage is extra and that risk in transit after the Goods leave Risbridger is entirely the Buyer’s. Prices are exclusive of any applicable value added tax, which the Buyer shall be additionally bound and liable to pay to Risbridger.

Notwithstanding clause 4, an Order may state that a different risk/delivery Incoterms 2020 term will apply and if it does then that specified Incoterm 2020 referred to in the Order shall apply rather than Ex-Works.

Designs of Goods in an Order may be subject to minor changes without notice which the Buyer is agreed to accept. All Goods will be invoiced in accordance with prices ruling in the Order.

Title to the Goods shall pass to the Buyer only on full payment to Risbridger of their relevant invoice. The risk passes to the Buyer at the moment the Goods leave Risbridger’s premises and control as per Ex-Works Incoterms 2020 (or as such specified Incoterm 2020 term may specify). Until such time as title in the Goods passes to the Buyer, the Buyer shall hold the Goods as Risbridger’s fiduciary agent and bailee, shall keep the Goods separate from those of the Buyer and third parties and shall properly store, protect and insure and identify them as Risbridger’s property.

The Buyer shall not sell or dispose of the Goods until full payment has first been received by Risbridger. Upon sale of the Goods before payment of Risbridger’s invoice, the Buyer shall be in breach of the Contract and shall be immediately liable and bound to pay that invoice in full. Until such time as the property in the Goods passes to the Buyer (and provided the Goods are still in existence and have not been resold), Risbridger may at any time require the Buyer to deliver up the Goods to Risbridger and, if the Buyer fails to do so forthwith, it is agreed that Risbridger may enter on any premises of the Buyer or any third party where the Goods are stored and repossess the Goods.

All Orders will be shipped promptly and efficiently. Risbridger will not be liable or responsible for delay in shipment whatsoever the cause as it is agreed to be the Buyer’s risk under Ex-Works Incoterms 2020 2020 (or as such specified Incoterm 2020 term may specify). If the Goods (or any instalment) are not delivered due to Risbridger’s breach or negligence, Risbridger’s liability (if any) shall be limited to the price of the Goods to the Buyer (in the cheapest available market) of similar goods to replace those Goods that are not delivered.

10)

If the Buyer fails to take delivery of the Goods or fails to give Risbridger adequate delivery instructions before the time stated for delivery, then, without limiting any other right or remedy available to Risbridger, Risbridger may:

store the Goods until actual shipment and charge the Buyer for the reasonable costs (including insurance) of storage by Risbridger prior to shipment; or

sell the Goods at the best price readily obtainable and (after deducting all reasonable storage and selling expenses) account to the Buyer for the excess over the price under the Contract or charge the Buyer for any shortfall below the price under the Contract.

11)

Shortages in shipment or non-delivery must be reported by letter or email to Risbridger at 25 Trowers Way, Holmethorpe, Redhill RH1 2LH (info@risbridger.com) within 10 days of the Risbridger invoice date.

12)

Return of Goods to Risbridger is entirely subject to Risbridger’s prior written agreement thereof. Any Goods accepted for return are required to be unused and in a re-saleable condition. If they are not, then the Buyer is liable to Risbridger for full immediate payment for the Goods. All Goods accepted for return will also be subject to a minimum additional 20% handling and restocking charge. No “specials” or non-standard items will be accepted for return.

13)

Payment terms for approved customer accounts are strictly 100% cleared funds by the end of the month following invoice date. Invoices will be raised on or around the date the Goods are despatched to the Buyer. Risbridger reserves the right to require payment in advance of shipment to which the Buyer agrees. Shipment of Goods may be delayed if any past invoice remains overdue. The Buyer agrees that Risbridger has the right to take out from production and shipping schedules any Orders or Goods to be delivered under any Contracts with the Buyer when it has outstanding and overdue invoices.

the Goods not being subject to abuse, negligence, accident, misapplication or any alteration from the date the Goods leave Risbridger premises;

Such liability is strictly limited to replacement of defective parts manufactured by Risbridger.
