Terms & Conditions
Terms & Conditions
1.
Application:
Unless other terms and conditions are accepted by LEDSnaps Limited, the Company
by means of a written amendment to these terms and conditions, the contract to
supply goods and or services will be on the terms and conditions set out below
the contract terms. Commencement of the supply of goods and or services from
the Company confirms to the Company that the Customer has read, understood and
agreed to abide by these terms and conditions.
2.
Acceptance:
All quotations given are subject to confirmation by the Company upon
receipt of the Customers order and no contract shall be concluded until
such confirmation is given, or the Customers order is otherwise accepted.
3.
Prices
Unless otherwise stated, prices quoted are exclusive of VAT tax, duties and all
costs of packing and carriage. The Company reserves the right to adjust such
exclusive prices between the date of the quotation and the completion of the
contract. If prices are varied after a contract has become binding, the Company
shall give the Customer written notice of such variation and on receipt or such
notice the Customer may cancel the contract. In a case where goods are to be
delivered or services are to be supplied in instalments, the Customer may
cancel only the undelivered goods or the unperformed part of the services. If
the contract is not cancelled, the Customer shall be bound to pay the varied
price in respect of the goods delivered or services performed after such notice
is received. To be effective, the cancellations must be in writing and must be
received by the Company within fourteen days of the date of such notice. The
price quoted on pro forma invoices are only valid for the period specified
thereon. If no period is specified thereon, then the prices quoted are valid
until the end of the calendar month in which the pro-forma invoice was raised.
4. Delivery and performance of services
Delivery or performance dates or periods are estimates and are not binding on the Company. The Company will endeavour to complete the contract or deliver the goods by the estimated date or within the estimated period or within a reasonable time limit if there is no estimated date or period, but in no circumstances will the Company be liable for any loss or damage of any kind whatsoever arising directly or indirectly from any delay in the completion on the contract or delivery of the goods however caused unless such delay exceeds 120 days, nor will any such delay entitle the Customer to terminate or rescind the contract. The Company reserves the right to make partial shipments. Any estimated delivery date or estimated performance period begins on the date of the Company’s acceptance of the Customers order (order confirmation) as required by Condition 2 or later if the Company receives at a later stage from the Customer any further information, which it may require to proceed with the contract. The Customer agrees to supply such information promptly and to accept the goods or services by or within the estimated delivery date or estimated performance period specified in the contract and to give any necessary instructions for delivery or performance accordingly. The goods shall be and thereafter remain at the Customers risk from the time of delivery to the Customer or to the Customers carriers as specified in the delivery term (Incoterm) of the contract, but the property in the goods shall not pass to the Customer until the Company has received payment in accordance with Condition 6. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the delivery terms are EX WORKS and are subject to carriage charges unless the company has offered has explicitly offered free carriage on the order. The property (both legal and equitable) in the goods shall not pass to the Customer until the purchase price of the goods together with all costs incurred has been paid in full. Prior to the property of the goods passing to the Customer, the Customer may deliver the goods to a third party pursuant to a bona fide and arm’s length agreement to resell the goods, but such liberty will cease upon the happening of any of the events referred to in Condition 16. At any time after the payment of the goods has become due but remains unpaid, the Company may elect to rescind the contract and/or recover any/all goods, which are still the Company’s property and may enter onto any premises where such goods may be for the purpose of affecting such recovery. Such payment will be deemed immediately due if any of the events referred to in Condition 16 shall occur. Where the goods are re-sold by the Customer and at the time of such resale the legal and equitable title in the goods has not passed to the Customer, then the proceeds of such resale will be held by the Customer in a fiduciary capacity on trust for the Company, and the Customer will account to the Company for the same to the extent necessary to pay the price of the goods. Any goods that are sent to the Customer on a loan or demo basis must be returned to the Company at the expense of the Customer on the date specified at the time of arranging the loan or demo, or that is stated on the loan form, which should be signed and returned before any goods are dispatched.
5.
Cancellation by the Customer
No contract shall be subject to cancellation or suspension by the Customer in
whole or in part without the written consent of the Company, and the Company
shall be entitled as a condition of granting such consent to require the
Customer to pay all loss and damages suffered by the Company as a result of
such cancellation or suspension. Exception to this is when the goods have been
customised e.g. deviating from the standard LEDSnaps product line as requested
by the Customer. In this case, the order cannot be cancelled.
6.
Payment
In the case of a sale to a Customer that has been granted credit facilities by
the Company, payment by the Customer is due, as per agreed payment terms,
counting from delivery date of the goods. If the Customer fails to pay the
Company by the due date, the Company may either suspend all further deliveries
or performances of services until payment is made in full or cancel the
contract and any other contracts between the Customer and the Company in so far
as goods remain to be delivered or services remain to be performed there under.
Furthermore, all sums owed by the Customer to the Company, whether on any
account whatsoever or otherwise, shall immediately become due and payable in
full. The Company reserves the right to charge interests when payment has not
been made on the due date, at the rate of 8% per month, calculated from the
time of the due date of payment down to receipt by the Company of any
outstanding balance.
7.
Guarantee
The Company guarantees goods against defects of material and workmanship under
normal usage for a period of two years from date of sale to end customer. Proof
of purchase is mandatory and original receipt / invoice must be submitted to
determine if the product is under warranty. The Company shall not be liable for
any indirect claims or losses appertaining to the Customer. Note also that this
guarantee shall be deemed invalid if the goods have been used for any purpose
other than those for which they were intended or otherwise than in accordance
with the Company’s instructions, or have been subjected to excessive voltages,
or stored under improper conditions, or otherwise abused or tampered with, or
if the Company’s trademark or serial number has been removed, defaced or
altered. If the Customer is unable to repair the product, it must be sent back
to the Company to be repaired, and the Customer shall cover all expenses associated
with the return of the product to the Company. The Company will cover the cost
of returning the product to the Customer based on standard freight. The return
must be in original packaging and safely stowed. If the Company replaces the
defective part in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the defective part
shall be and remain the property of the Company. The defective part, repaired
or replaced, will only be guaranteed for the unexpired period of the warranty
applicable to the related product. Products and parts subject to repair may be
replaced by refurbished products/parts of the same type rather than being
repaired. Refurbished parts may be used to repair the products. Replacement of
the product or a part does not extend or reset the warranty term. The Company
reserves the right to recommend a Service Centre / Distributor for the repair
or replacement if more convenient for the Customer.

under warranty, proof of purchase must be submitted as part of the RMA request
as mentioned in Condition 7. Spare(s) or exchange product(s) to be returned to
the Company, will be invoiced to the Customer, and credited upon receipt of the
faulty spare part(s) or product(s) by the Company. Defective components must be
returned by the Customer at the Customers’ expense within 30 days of receipt of
part(s) or exchange product(s) and must be safely stowed and clearly labelled
with the RMA number. All spare(s) or exchange product(s) returned to the

for the return. If items are returned for a deemed invalid reason, and without
prior consent, the Company will reserve the right to charge a restocking or
handling fee to the Customer. If the product is not returned in proper
packaging, the Company reserves the right to charge a handling fee as
stipulated in Condition 7.
