Order

Your Order is an offer to purchase from us and it does not form an Agreement with us until we accept the Order in accordance with this clause at which time you accept the T&Cs. The contract between us is only created once we commit to supply you the Products or agree to provide the Services you ordered, and not before. You must pay in full for your Order before any title to Products passes from us or before our lien can be removed. An acknowledgement of your Order is not an acceptance of an Order.

Where you place an Order via our Website, phone, by email, your Order is accepted when we notify you that the Products are ready for dispatch or collection

For Products which are cut, made to measure, coloured or otherwise customised to your specification, we accept your Order seven days after the date of your Order or when we start to cut, make, mix, treat, colour or customise those Products, whichever is earlier.

For Services or Services comprising Product, we accept your Order when we confirm acceptance and readiness to provide the Services.

We may in our sole discretion choose not to accept your Order or cancel your Order in whole or in part for any reason and we will not be liable to you or to anyone else in any way or for any direct, indirect or consequential loss damage or costs should we refuse or cancel your Order.

If we do not accept your Order or cancel your Order whether in whole or in part, we will refund, within a reasonable time, any monies paid by you in connection with that Order or that part of the order that we do not accept or cancel.

You must be 16 or over to purchase Products or Services from us, or if you are not yet 16 please ask your parent to make the purchase.

Any information, data and images on our Website, in other publications, materials, media or otherwise, regarding performance, suitability, dimensions, weight, colour, capacity, suitability, specifications, technical information, particulars, appearance, measurements and particulars of Products, packaging and/or Services, and any drawings, photographs and illustrations:
(i) are included only for general information, are not intended to address any specific objective or function of yours, and does not constitute any form of advice or recommendation by us;

(iii) are not to be treated as being or as forming part of our Agreement.

You must ensure the accuracy and suitability of all Products, Services, materials and other factors, packaging and/or Services for your purposes. The Products provided and their packaging may vary from that information, data or images. If you are concerned about the precision of that information, data or images and whether it might meet your requirements, we recommend that you contact us prior to placing an Order as, once purchased, unless otherwise permitted by these T&Cs the Products are not returnable or refundable and Services are not refundable.

We do not make any representations in relation to any Products which are manufactured by third party suppliers and whose products we sell.

If an Order includes Products or Services in relation to which you provide us with measurements or other relevant data, you will ensure that these measurements and data are correct and accurate and that the Products or Services meet your needs as there is no right of return.

All Products are subject to availability.

Occasionally we find ourselves having to withdraw an item from sale, including because it has become obsolete, has been discontinued or is out of stock. If you Order Products which are not available from stock, or Services which rely on goods not available in stock, we may elect to order them from a supplier or build them as appropriate and take reasonable steps to deliver them to you.

If you have placed an Order for an item that has been withdrawn from sale for whatever reason, we will inform you as soon as possible and offer you an alternative if one is available or a refund, in our discretion, without liability to us.

Charges

Estimates and prices for Products and Services are in AUD (Australian Dollars) unless stated otherwise, and inclusive of Goods & Services Tax (GST).

Some Products and materials including those used in providing Services are sourced from third party suppliers. Any price quoted by us  or appearing on our Website subject to variation without notice, for example but not limited to in the event of an increase in GST rates, as a result of a third party price increase, increases in other business costs or plans or mispricing. However, if we intend to change a price from that given to you by us, we will let you know and give you an opportunity consider whether you wish to continue with your Order.

If we have mispriced any Product or Service then we will not be obliged to supply the Products or Services at the incorrect price or at all. We will at our discretion either cancel your Order and refund the price you have paid or endeavour to contact you and enquire whether you wish to continue with the Order at the correct price. If we are unable to contact you or you do not wish to continue with the Order at the correct price, we may cancel your Order or relevant part and refund the price you have paid.

From time to time, we may apply promotional prices to Products. Such prices are subject to the terms of that promotion. To take advantage of promotional prices, you must quote the relevant promotion code when you Order where applicable. We may update or cancel promotions at any time.

Any discounts offered on our Products and Services apply to our standard retail price, and do not apply in addition to any other discounts, including those which have been applied as part of a promotion.

Where we provide you with a quote it may be subject to additional terms and conditions applicable to that quote.

Payment

Payment of the full amount due on our invoice for Products must be made at the time that you place the Order unless otherwise agreed by us in writing. Payments can be made by most major credit or debit cards or bank transfer.

You must only use your own credit/debit card or account and not a credit/debit card or account of another person. You may be subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of the card or account refuses to authorise payment or any other validation checks return adverse results, we will not accept your Order and we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery, nor are we not obliged to inform you of the reason for our refusal. You are responsible for all credit card and other charges.

Your credit card payment will be taken at the point of processing. If a problem in supply should occur or there is otherwise a need to refund you, your payment will be refunded as swiftly as possible. The refund may take a number of days to show as cleared funds on your account, depending on the payment provider.

You must advise us in writing, including detailed explanation, of any discrepancies and queries on invoices within 7 days of receipt, and use your best endeavours to resolve all disputes and queries within a further 7 days, failing which such invoice shall be deemed to be accepted and undisputed. Any disputed invoice shall not relieve you of any obligation to pay any other amounts that are undisputed.

Interest may be payable on any sums outstanding, at 10% over Commonwealth Bank of Australia’s Better Business Loan Variable base rate as published from time to time on their website www.cba.com.au and is calculated from the date of invoice.

You agree that we have the right to retain a boat, trailer, gear, goods, property and equipment and any other goods you have given to us until you pay us in full. If you don’t pay us within three months of a relevant due date we may sell the goods as listed above and will account to you for the difference between the amount owed to us and any costs of selling / additional administration charges and the amount for which the goods were sold.

We retain title to all Products until we have received payment in full of all sums due in connection with the supply of the Products to you or in connection with any other transaction. For these purposes we have only received a payment when the full amount is irrevocably credited to our bank account.

If any of the Products over which title is retained by us is attached to or incorporated into or mixed with other goods not owned by us and is not readily identifiable or separable without analysis or physical labour from the resulting composite or mixed goods, title to the resulting composite or mixed goods shall vest in us and be retained by us for as long as and on the same terms as those on which we would have retained title to the Products in question, including the right to sell.

If you fail to make payment to us when due, enter in bankruptcy, liquidation or voluntary administration or some other composition or agreement with your creditors, have a receiver, manager or administrator appointed over all or part of your assets, or become insolvent, or if any of the aforesaid is threatened or if we have reasonable cause to believe that any of these events is likely to occur, we shall have the right without prejudice to any other remedies to enter without prior notice any premises where any of the Products owned by us may be, and to repossess and dispose of any such Products owned by us and goods on which Services have been provided so as to discharge any sums owed to us by you.

You undertake not to re-sell or part with possession of the Products and goods owned by us or over which we have a lien until you have paid in full all sums owed by you to us.

The Products including goods on which Services have been provided shall, once the risk has passed to you, be at and always remain at your risk unless and until we have retaken possession of such Products or goods.

If your delivery address is outside of Australia, you may be required to pay import duties, customs charges, and taxes. These and any additional charges are your responsibility, and you hereby indemnify us against all such charges.
