1. Acceptance of Orders
All contracts of sale and suppport services made by TechShire Limited (“The Company”) shall be deemed to incorporate these terms and conditions which shall prevail over any other document or communication from the party with whom the company is dealing (“The Customer”). All orders are accepted subject to all these conditions of sale unless otherwise varied by agreement in writing. These Terms and Conditions do not form the full basis of sales/contracts. Please refer to the terms specific to those sales/contracts.
2. Carriage, Post & Packing
Charges are made to cover the cost of post, packing and delivery (where such a charge is required by company policy) and are charged at the rate prevailing at the time.
3. Prices
Goods are invoiced at the prices ruling at the time of order. However, the Company reserves the right to modify prices at any time. VAT will be added at the prevailing rate in accordance with government legislation.
4. Delivery
(a) Any date or time specified by the company shall be treated as an estimate only. Whilst every effort will be made to despatch goods on time, no liability can be accepted by the company for failure to deliver within the stated time. The Company shall not be liable for any loss or damage whatsoever (including consequential loss or loss of profit) arising directly or indirectly from any delay in delivery of all or any of the goods howsoever caused.
(b) The Company will accept no liability for shortages, damage to or non-delivery of goods unless the Customer notifies the Company in writing within three business days of receipt of the goods.
(c) The Customer shall be bound to accept the goods when they are ready for delivery by the Company and delivery will be deemed to have taken place when the goods are delivered to the Customer at the nominated address or by a nominated carrier as the case may be, whereupon the risk of loss, breakage or other damage whatsoever will pass to the customer.
(d) If the Company fails to deliver the goods for any reason other than any cause beyond the Company’s reasonable control or the Customer’s fault, and the Company is accordingly liable to the customer (in the cheapest available market) of similar goods to replace those goods not delivered over the price in question. Furthermore, the Company shall not be liable for any loss of profit or other consequential loss and it’s liability (whether in contract or otherwise) shall in no case exceed the price of the article or articles in question.

The Company shall be under no obligation to insure the goods in storage and the risk of any loss or damage to the goods howsoever arising shall be borne by the Customer. Alternatively, the Company can sell the goods at the best price readily obtainable and (after deducting reasonable storage and selling expenses) account to the Customer for the excess over the price under the contract or charge the Customer any shortfall below the price of the contract.

The purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy under this warranty against use is for the repair or replacement of the hardware or any defective parts or parts, and no other remedy, including, but not limited to, incidental or consequential damage or loss of whatsoever nature shall be available to the purchaser. Our decision on all matters relating to complaints shall be final. Any hardware or defective part which has been replaced shall become our property. For products returned, the Customer is responsible for transport charges to and from the Company’s premises and for any charges and duties levied on importation and compliance with HM Customs and Excise regulations in all respects on importation and re-export.

Failure to return the registration documents in time could result in loss of warranty cover or delay in providing services.
