Terms & Conditions
1. GENERAL
A contract (“Contract”) will only come into being upon acceptance by PRINTAPLY of the customer’s order and the following conditions, and where applicable the terms and conditions of a hire and the maintenance agreement terms and conditions shall be deemed to be incorporated therein. Should there be any conflict between these conditions of sale and supply and the other terms and conditions referred to then these conditions of sale and supply shall prevail.

All terms and conditions appearing to or referred to in the Customer’s order or otherwise stipulated by the Customer are not accepted and shall have no effect. By its acceptance, whether expressed or implied, of these terms and conditions the Customer acknowledges that in entering into this Agreement he does not do so on the basis of and does not rely on any representation, warranty, statement, agreement or undertaking of any nature whatsoever other than as expressly provided herein and to the extent that the Customer has been the Customer unconditionally and irrevocably waives any claims, rights or remedies which it might otherwise have had in relation thereto.

Where goods are sold by reference to PRINTAPLY’s published price list the price payable for the goods shall be the ruling price as published in the price list current at the date of acceptance of the order for the goods, otherwise prices shall be charged on the basis of PRINTAPLY’s quotation to the customer.
3. WARRANTY
Where machines are returned under warranty, they will be repaired or replaced in accordance with the manufacturer’s conditions. PRINTAPLY shall exercise its sole discretion in deciding whether to repair or replace the item returned under Warranty.
