1. QUOTATIONS
(A) Any quotation given by Jelprint Ltd will only be binding if given in writing on Jelprint notepaper (by a duly authorised representative of Jelprint Ltd) and the quotation has not expired. A written quotation will be based on samples and materials provided and on the basis of instructions given by the Customer. Jelprint reserve the right to amend any quotation given to reflect any incomplete inaccurate or changed instructions or samples or materials given by the Customer. Any verbal quotation is an estimate only and will not be binding unless and until confirmed by Jelprint in writing. Any quotation is valid for a period of 14 days only from its date of issue by Jelprint, (provided that Jelprint has not previously withdrawn it and subject to the provisions of condition 2 below) and shall be deemed to be an offer by Jelprint to provide goods and/or services upon these terms and conditions to the Customer. Any order made in respect of a written quotation shall be deemed to be an acceptance of the offer set out in that written quotation by the Customer.
(B) The Customer must ensure that any quotation it wishes to accept, its order and any applicable specification are complete and accurate. The quantity and description of the goods or services shall be as set out in Jelprint’s written quotation or the Customer’s order as accepted.
(C) (i) Subject to condition 4(B) a Business Customer (a Customer who is dealing with Jelprint in the course of its business) may not cancel an order which Jelprint has accepted except with the agreement in writing of Jelprint and any Customer cancelling any order hereby agrees to indemnify Jelprint in full against all losses (including loss of profits), costs (including the costs of all labour and materials used until the date of cancellation), damages, charges and expenses incurred by Jelprint as a result of the cancellation.
(ii) Jelprint may cancel an order at any time prior to delivery upon notice to the Customer whereupon a refund of any monies paid for the relevant goods and/or services will be promptly made.

PRICE
(D) The price payable will (subject to condition 2) be as stated in Jelprint’s written quotation and/or the order as accepted.
(E) The price payable (unless specifically stated otherwise) is exclusive of:
(i) any costs of packaging and carriage of goods; and
(ii) any value added tax or other applicable sales tax or duty;
which shall be added to the sum in question.
PRELIMINARY OR PREPARATORY WORK
(F) For the avoidance of doubt, all works services or goods supplied at the Customer’s request including work and/or services of a preliminary or preparatory nature unless specifically stated otherwise are not complimentary.

2. PRICE VARIATIONS
(A) If there is any increase or decrease in the cost to Jelprint in providing/fulfilling the order due to:

(ii) any change in delivery, dates, quantities or specifications for the Order requested by the Customer;
(iii) any delay caused by any instructions of the Customer or failure of the Customer to give Jelprint adequate information or instructions;

(v) additional costs incurred as a result of materials provided by the Customer proving unsuitable;
the price/quotation shall be recalculated to take account of the resulting increased or decreased cost of meeting/fulfilling the order.
(B) Notwithstanding the provisions of condition 2(A) above:
(i) in the case of Business Customers, the relevant price/quotation shall only be adjusted upwards if, before Jelprint has incurred the additional cost, it has notified the Customer in writing of such increase and the Customer has agreed to the increase in writing. If the parties are then unable to agree any such increase to the price then the order shall be cancelled and Jelprint shall be entitled to invoice the Customer for all works services or supplies carried out and/or made before the date of such cancellation; and,
(ii) in the case of all Consumer Customers, the relevant price/quotation shall only be adjusted upwards if, before Jelprint has incurred the additional cost, it has notified the Customer in writing of such an increase and has given the Customer the right to withdraw from the order within 3 days of receipt of such notice in default of which it shall be deemed to have accepted the revised price and Jelprint shall be entitled to invoice the Customer for all works services or supplies carried out and/or made before the date of such cancellation.

3. PROOFS AND ERRORS
Proofs are available for the Customer’s approval on request. No responsibility or liability will be accepted by Jelprint for:
(i) any errors not corrected by the Customer after inspecting the proofs or where the Customer declines to make such request; or
(ii) any work for which the Customer has given instructions which requires or allows Jelprint to exercise a degree of artistic licence;
and the Customer shall not be entitled to reject such work although Jelprint shall rectify any such error at the Customer’s cost.

4. DELIVERY, PAYMENT AND RISK
(A) Delivery of the goods and/or provision of the services shall be made at the Jelprint Centre (the Jelprint outlet which accepted the order) or such other place as agreed by the parties in writing. The Customer will take delivery of the goods and/or services within 7 days of Jelprint giving it notice that the goods and/or services are ready for delivery/completed.
(B) Any dates specified by Jelprint for delivery of the goods or performance of the services are approximate only and may not be made of the essence unless specifically agreed by Jelprint as such in writing. If no dates are specified, delivery will be within a reasonable time.

IMPORTANT
(C) Subject to the other provisions of these conditions Jelprint shall have no liability to the Customer for any loss (including loss of profit), costs, damages, charges or expenses caused directly or indirectly by any delay in the delivery of the goods and/or provision of the services (except in the case of Consumer Customers if caused by Jelprint’s negligence or breach of contract).
(D) In the case of Business Customers, any delay or failure in delivery or performance will not entitle the Customer to cancel the order unless and until the Customer, has given 7 days written notice to Jelprint requiring delivery or performance to be made within a reasonable period (and in the case of Consumer Customers if they have given reasonable notice to Jelprint requiring delivery or performance to be made within a reasonable period) and Jelprint has not fulfilled the delivery or performed within that period. If the Customer cancels the order in accordance with this condition 4(D) then
(i) Jelprint will refund to the Customer any sums which the Customer has paid to Jelprint in respect of that order (or part of order) which has been cancelled; and
(ii) the Customer will be under no liability to make any further payments under condition 4(F) in respect of the order (or part of order) which has been cancelled.
(E) If the Customer fails to take delivery of goods when they are ready for delivery or to provide any instructions, documents or authorisations required to enable the goods to be delivered on time (except where Jelprint is at fault) risk in goods will pass to the Customer and the Customer hereby agrees to fully insure the same, the goods will be deemed to be delivered and (without prejudice to its other rights) Jelprint may store or arrange for the storage of the goods until actual delivery and charge the Customer for all related costs and expenses (including, without limitation, storage and insurance) it incurs.
(F) Jelprint may invoice the Customer:
(i) for goods provided when or at any time after notifying the Customer that the goods are ready for delivery;
(ii) for services provided on or at any time after performance of the services commences;
(iii) notwithstanding the provisions in conditions 4(F)(i) and (ii), in the event that an order is suspended or delayed as a result of any act or omission on the part of the Customer for a period in excess of thirty days, for any part of the order which has been processed/delivered and/or performed.
(G) Payment is due in pounds sterling, or such other currency agreed in advance by Jelprint in writing, immediately after issue of such invoice and Jelprint shall be entitled to recover the payment notwithstanding delivery may not have taken place and legal title has not passed to the Customer (except in the case of approved credit account Customers with whom alternative arrangements have been agreed in writing by Jelprint). Time of payment shall be of the essence.
(H) For Business Customers Jelprint may deliver goods in separate instalments and/or perform any services in stages. Each separate instalment or stage shall be invoiced and paid for in accordance with the provisions of these terms and conditions. Each instalment or stage shall be a separate contract and no cancellation or termination under clause 4(D) of any one contract relating to an instalment or stage shall entitle the Customer to repudiate or cancel any other contract, instalment or stage.
(I) All sums payable to Jelprint under any order shall become due immediately upon termination/cancellation of the order.
(J) All payments to be made by the Customer under the order shall be made in full without any set-off, restriction or condition and without any deduction for or on account of any counterclaim.
(K) If the Customer fails to make any payment when payment is due then without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to Jelprint, Jelprint shall be entitled to:
(i) cancel the order or suspend any performance of the order;
(ii) appropriate any payment made by the Customer as Jelprint may think fit (notwithstanding any purported appropriation by the Customer);
(iii) charge the Customer with all costs and expenses involved in collecting the overdue payment together with interest (both before and after any judgement) on the amount unpaid at the rate of 2% per month above Barclay’s Bank plc base rate or such higher rate as provided for by legislation from the due date until payment in full is made (part of a month being treated as a full month for the purpose of calculating interest).
(L) Legal title in the Goods shall not pass to the Customer until Jelprint receives payment in full (in cash or cleared funds) of all sums whether in respect of the goods, services or otherwise due owing or incurred including VAT. Until legal title passes the Customer shall hold the goods on a fiduciary basis as Jelprint’s bailee and shall store the goods (at no cost to Jelprint) separately from all other goods of the Customer or any third party in such a way that they remain readily identifiable as Jelprint’s property. Where the Customer’s right to possession has terminated the Customer grants Jelprint, its agents and employees an irrevocable licence at any time to enter any premises where the goods are or may be stored to recover them. On termination of the contract, howsoever caused, Jelprint’s (but not the Customer’s) rights contained in this condition 4 shall remain in effect.
