General

Orders are accepted subject to the following terms and conditions and the placing of an order with Ad-Tek Pty Limited (Company) is deemed to be acceptance of these terms and conditions by the party purchasing the goods (customer). No variation or modification of, or substitution for, these terms and conditions will be binding unless expressly accepted by an authorised officer of the Company in writing.

Quotations and Price Lists

Quotations and/or the Company price list are not an offer by the Company to supply the goods referred to in such quotations or price lists, and no order placed in response to a quotation or price list will be binding unless accepted by the Company in writing. All such acceptances by the Company are subject to availability of the necessary materials and to the Company being able to obtain any necessary authorisation and/or licences and to the same remaining valid.

Prices and Terms of Payment

All prices given in quotations are provisional only until the order has been accepted by the Company. Prices are based upon the prices and costs of materials, labour, fuel, transport and overhead expenses current at the date of the quotation and may be varied by the Company at any time either before or after acceptance of the order to correspond with any variation in such prices or costs which may occur at any time before delivery of the order to the customer is completed. All prices shown in price lists are subject to alteration without notice.
Unless otherwise stated in the Company’s quotations or price lists current at the time of the Company’s acceptance of an order, prices quoted are strictly net. All goods or services delivered to the customer by the supplier in any Calendar month must be paid for in full in Australian dollars by the customer on or before the Supplier’s last trading day in the month following in which the goods or services were delivered or provided (“the Due Date”).
To secure payment of all monies which are or may become payable by the Customer under this agreement the Customer (or where the Customer is comprised of two or more persons then each person jointly and severally) hereby charges with the due payment of all of those monies all of the Customer’s interest in real property wherever located both present and future and the Customer consents to the Supplier lodging a caveat or caveats over such property to protect its interest.
All payments made using a credit card will be subjected to standard processing fee as follows: Mastercard Visa cards 2%, American Express and Diners Club 3%. The charges will apply to GST inclusive value.

Goods and Services Tax

In this clause:
1. “GST” means GST as defined in A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 as amended (“GST Act”) or any replacement or other relevant legislation and regulations;
2. Words used in this clause which have a particular meaning in the “GST law” (as defined in the GST Act, and also including any applicable legislative determinations and Australian Taxation Office public rulings) have the same meaning, unless the context otherwise requires;
3. Any reference to GST payable by a party includes any corresponding GST payable by the representative member of any GST group of which that party is a member; and
4. If the GST law treats part of a supply as a separate supply for the purpose of determining whether GST Is payable on that part of the supply or for the purpose of determining the tax period to which that part of the supply is attributable, such part of the supply is to be treated as a separate supply.
Unless GST is expressly included, the consideration expressed to be payable under any other clause of these terms and conditions for any supply made under or in connection with these terms and conditions (including the price at which the goods are sold) does not include GST.
To the extent that any supply made under or in connection with these terms and conditions (including the supply of the goods) is a taxable supply, the GST exclusive consideration otherwise payable for that supply is increased by an amount equal to that consideration multiplied by the rate at which GST is imposed in respect of the supply, and is payable at the same time.
Each party agrees to do all things, including providing tax invoices and other documentation, that may be necessary or desirable to enable or assist the other party to claim any input tax credit, adjustment or refund in relation to any amount of GST paid or payable in respect of any supply made under or in connection with these terms and conditions.
If a payment to a party under these terms and conditions is a payment by way of reimbursement or indemnity and is calculated by reference to the GST inclusive amount of a loss, cost or expense incurred by that party, then the payment is to be reduced by the amount of any input tax credit to which that party is entitled in respect of that loss, cost or expense before any adjustment is made for GST pursuant to paragraph c).

Title

Notwithstanding that risk in the goods passes to the customer upon delivery to the customer or into the customer’s custody, whichever is earlier, title to the goods remains with the Company until all moneys owing by the customer to the Company have been paid in full, whether such moneys are in respect of moneys payable under a specific contract or on any other account whatsoever and, until such time, the customer must, if required by the Company, store the goods in a manner which clearly indicates that the goods are owned by the Company and the customer will in any event hold the goods as bailee subject to its right to deal with the goods in the ordinary course of its business on the basis that it is dealing with the goods as undisclosed agent of the Company and any moneys received as a result of such dealings will be held by the customer for the benefit of the Company. In the event that the customer does so deal with the goods but does not obtain payment therefore then the customer must, at the Company’s request, assign to the Company any debt owing to the customer in relation to such dealing and the customer hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its attorney with all powers permitted by law for the purpose of effecting any such assignment and to effect a recovery of any such debt in the name of the customer for the benefit of the Company. If the customer uses the goods in a manufacturing or similar process and sells the resulting product the customer holds that part of the proceeds of such sale relating to goods sold to the customer by the Company on trust for the Company. That part of the proceeds held on trust, for this purpose alone, is deemed to be the amount owing to the Company at the time of receipt by the customer of the proceeds. In the event that the customer fails to pay for the goods as provided in these terms and conditions, the Company will be entitled without prior notice to enter upon the customer’s premises at any time and retake possession of the goods. The provisions of this clause will apply notwithstanding any subsequent or other agreement between the parties under which the Company or a related body corporate gives the customer credit.

The Company may commence legal action against the customer if the goods are not paid for, notwithstanding that property in the goods has not passed.

2. in the case of services, either the supplying of the services again or paying to have the services supplied again and otherwise all other conditions and warranties whether expressed or implied by law in respect of the state, quality or condition of the said goods which may apart from this clause be binding on the Company are hereby expressly excluded and negatived.
