1.1 “Buyer” means the organisation or person who buys Goods from the Seller;

1.2 “Goods” means the articles to be supplied to the Buyer the Seller;

1.3 “Intellectual Property Rights” means all patents, registered and unregistered designs, copyright, trade marks, know-how and all other forms of intellectual property wherever in the world enforceable;

1.4 “List Price” means the list of prices of the Goods maintained by the Seller as amended from time to time;

2.1 These Terms and Conditions shall apply to all contracts for the sale of Goods by the Seller to the Buyer to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions referred to, offered or relied on by the Buyer whether in negotiation or at any stage in the dealings between the parties, including any standard or printed terms tendered by the Buyer, unless the Buyer specifically states in writing, separately from such terms, that it wishes such terms to apply and this has been acknowledged by the Seller in writing.

2.2 Any variation to these Terms and Conditions (including any special terms and conditions agreed between the parties) shall be inapplicable unless agreed in writing by the Seller.

3.1 The price shall be that in the Seller’s current List Price, or such other price as the parties may agree in writing. The price is exclusive of VAT or any other applicable costs. Carriage shall be paid for by the Seller.

3.2 Payment of the price and VAT and any other applicable costs shall be due within 30 days of the date of receipt of the invoice supplied by the Seller.

Any description given or applied to the Goods is given by way of identification only and the use of such description shall not constitute a sale by description. For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer hereby affirms that it does not in any way rely on any description when entering into the contract.

Where a sample of the Goods is shown to and inspected by the Buyer, the parties hereto accept that such a sample is so shown and inspected for the sole purpose of enabling the Buyer to judge for itself the quality of the bulk, and not so as to constitute a sale by sample.

6.1 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, delivery of the Goods shall take place at the address specified by the Buyer. The Buyer shall make all arrangements necessary to take delivery of the Goods whenever they are tendered for delivery.

6.2 The date of delivery specified by the Seller is an estimate only. Time for delivery shall not be of the essence of the contract.

6.4 The Buyer shall be entitled to replacement Goods where the Goods have been damaged during transportation. The Buyer must notify the Seller of the damage within 24 hours of delivery.

6.5 By placing an order, customers outside of the UK agree to pay any local Customs Charges, Tax, Import Duty, Handling Fees and any other fees associated with the import of the goods as you are not being charged UK tax (where applicable)

6.6 As our items are custom made to order, any such returns will not entitle the customer to a refund or part-refund of such goods or for any shipping charges paid.  Should the order be returned, we will be willing to re-ship the order as long as the customer pays the additional shipping fee in advance, and agrees to pay the charges outlined above on the second attempt.

If an order is returned to us a second time (due to the customer refusing to pay any and all import charges) the customer will be issued a credit note to the value of the goods, less any administration costs incurred during the process.

Risk in the Goods shall pass to the Buyer at the moment the Goods are dispatched from the Seller`s premises. Where the Buyer chooses to collect the Goods itself, risk will pass when the Goods are entrusted to it or set aside for its collection, whichever happens first.

Title in the Goods shall not pass to the Buyer until the Seller has been paid in full for the Goods.

9.1 Where the Goods have been manufactured by the Seller and are found to be defective, the Seller shall repair, or in its sole discretion, replace defective Goods free of charge within 1 month from the date of delivery, subject to the following conditions:

9.1.1 the Buyer notifying the Seller in writing immediately upon the defect becoming apparent;

9.1.2 the defect being due to the faulty design, materials or workmanship of the Seller.

9.2 Any Goods to be repaired or replaced shall be returned to the Seller at the Buyer’s expense, if so requested by the Seller.

9.4 The Seller shall be entitled in its absolute discretion to refund the price of the defective Goods in the event that such price has already been paid.

9.5 The remedies contained in this Clause are without prejudice to the other Terms and Conditions herein, including, but without limitation, Clauses 10 and 11 below.

10.1 No liability of any nature shall be incurred or accepted by the Seller in respect of any representation made by the Seller, or on its behalf, to the Buyer, or to any party acting on its behalf, prior to the making of this contract where such representations were made or given in relation to:

10.1.1 the correspondence of the Goods with any description;

10.1.2 the quality of the Goods; or

10.1.3 the fitness of the Goods for any purpose whatsoever.

10.2 No liability of any nature shall be accepted by the Seller to the Buyer in respect of any express term of this contract where such term relates in any way to:

10.2.1 the correspondence of the Goods with any description;

10.2.2 the quality of the Goods; or

10.2.3 the fitness of the Goods for any purpose whatsoever.

10.3 All implied terms, conditions or warranties as to the correspondence of the Goods to any description or the satisfactory quality of the Goods or the fitness of the Goods for any purpose whatsoever (whether made known to the Seller or not) are hereby excluded from the contract.

11.1 Where any court or arbitrator determines that any part of Clause 10 above is, for whatever reason, unenforceable, the Seller shall be liable for all loss or damage suffered by the Buyer but in an amount not exceeding the contract price.

11.2 Nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed so as to limit or exclude the liability of the Seller for death or personal injury as a result of the Seller’s negligence or that of its employees or agents.

All Intellectual Property Rights produced from or arising as a result of the performance of this Agreement shall, so far as not already vested, become the absolute property of the Seller, and the Buyer shall do all that is reasonably necessary to ensure that such rights vest in the Seller by the execution of appropriate instruments or the making of agreements with third parties.

The Seller shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform any of its obligations if the delay or failure results from events or circumstances outside its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, strikes, lock outs, accidents, war, fire, breakdown of plant or machinery or shortage or unavailability of raw materials from a natural source of supply, and the Seller shall be entitled to a reasonable extension of its obligations. If the delay persists for such time as the Seller considers unreasonable, it may, without liability on its part, terminate the contract.

Nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed as establishing or implying any partnership or joint venture between the parties and nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall be deemed to construe either of the parties as the agent of the other.

The failure by either party to enforce at any time or for any period any one or more of the Terms and Conditions herein shall not be a waiver of them or of the right at any time subsequently to enforce all Terms and Conditions of this Agreement.

If any term or provision of these Terms and Conditions is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason by any court of competent jurisdiction such provision shall be severed and the remainder of the provisions hereof shall continue in full force and effect as if these Terms and Conditions had been agreed with the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision eliminated.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and the parties hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.

Where delivery is to be made by installments, each delivery shall be deemed for such purpose to be the subject of a separate contract and any failure whatsoever by the seller in respect of any one delivery shall not entitle the buyer to repudiate the contract or any installments remaining to be delivered thereunder.

Our catalogues, price lists and quotations do not constitute offers made by us. Your order will be deemed to be an offer to us under these conditions.

There is a binding agreement between us once we accept your order and these terms and conditions and the disclaimer of liability are deemed incorporated in all agreements for the sale of goods by us. They shall prevail over any terms or conditions contained or referred to elsewhere or implied by trade custom, practice or course of dealing.

In spite of completion and delivery being made the property (I.e the ownership) in the goods shall not pass from us until (a) you have paid the price plus any V.A.T payable thereon in full and in the case of payment by cheque until such time as the same shall have been cleared through the usual banking system and (b) no other sums whatever shall be due from you to us.

Until the property in the goods passes to you in accordance with the above, you shall hold the goods and each item thereof on a fiduciary basis as bailee for us. You shall store the goods at your cost separately from all other goods in your possession and marked in such a way that they are clearly identified as our property.

You must inspect the Goods on receipt and we shall be under no liability in respect of damage to Goods or incomplete delivery unless you submit a written claim to us and we receive this within 2 days of receipt by you of the Goods (or in the case of missing or undelivered Goods, within 7 days of due date of receipt) followed within 14 days of our request by such evidence of defect or shortage as we may reasonably request.

In the event that goods are shipped by royal mail, Black Raven Armoury accept no liability and do not offer any warranties whether express or implied, including (without limitation) any implied warranties with regards the loss of goods in transit & it will remain the sole responsibility of the customer to make any claim with Royal Mail.
