Terms and Conditions

TRADING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Terms & Conditions

These terms and conditions apply to all orders placed by the customer with Selco and will be governed by Selco’s Terms and Conditions of Sale applicable at the time of order and by any credit terms agreed by Selco.

Payments

All orders are COD unless otherwise arranged with Selco.

If payment facility is not available on the website, pro-forma invoice will be emailed upon the receipt of the order.

Where SELCO allows credit, except where otherwise agreed by SELCO, all accounts are payable Net 30 days from the end of month in which Goods are purchased.

If any payment is not made by the Purchaser to SELCO on the due date thereof, the Purchaser shall, without prejudice to SELCO’ other rights, pay SELCO a default charge at the rate of 1% per month or part thereof from the due date for payment until the date payment is made.

Purchaser shall indemnify SELCO against all costs (including solicitor and own client costs, commercial agents, commissions, fees, insurances, accounting costs, loss of profit and all interest) incurred by SELCO as a result of payment default and the action taken by SELCO in respect of the same.

SELCO reserves the right, and without prejudice to its other rights hereunder and at law, to cancel orders or to suspend or discontinue deliveries of Goods if:

          (a)  The Purchaser does not adhere to these Terms and Conditions of Sale or the credit terms, if credit

                 terms are given; or 

         (b) SELCO is unable to supply for any reason outside its control a particular style or styles of Goods 

               included in the order.

Pricing and Orders

 All prices are in Australian Dollar excluding Goods and Services Tax (GST) and are subject to change without notice. All new prices are effective as of the date of the newly published price list and will apply to all shipments shipped after effective date.

If SELCO is unable to obtain in sufficient quantity of goods to meet a specified order, SELCO may (at its option) fill the order in proportion to the quantity available or cancel the order or part of it by giving written notice to the Purchaser.

SELCO shall use reasonable endeavours to fill orders accepted by it but shall in no event be liable or responsible to the Purchaser for any failure or inability to supply Goods ordered by the Purchaser.

Once placed, no order may be cancelled by the Purchaser except in writing and then only with the prior written consent of SELCO, which it may refuse in its absolute discretion.

SELCO reserves the right to withdraw any Goods or any ranges of Goods from sale from time to time notwithstanding that such Goods may be displayed in lists of Goods available for purchase.

All references to retail prices are recommendations only and there is no obligation to comply with the recommendation.

Freight and Delivery

All shipments are ex works from SELCO's  Oakleigh South Warehouse.

The shipping fees will be added to the order in the checkout step (if available) or on the pro-forma invoice.

Once the order is received it will be shipped within 3 business days.

COD orders will be shipped within 3 business days upon receipt of the payment.

SELCO shall have the sole and absolute discretion as to the choice of carrier and  method of carriage of the Goods. Should the Purchaser nominate their own carrier, then all risks and associated costs of delivery including insurance will be borne by the Purchaser.

In the event that the Purchaser alleges that any of the Goods have not been delivered as ordered it shall give written notification of such alleged non-delivery to SELCO within 7 days of the date of invoice relating to those Goods with a full description of the alleged non-delivery.

SELCO shall not be responsible for any claims or damages resulting from any delay in delivery, nor will SELCO be liable for any failure to perform which results from governmental regulations, or strike, lockouts, or any other industrial disputes, accident, fire delays in manufacture or transportation, act of God or any other cause beyond the control of SELCO.

Title to Goods

The Purchaser shall assume full risk of loss or damage to Goods immediately upon delivery, but title will not pass to the Purchaser in respect of any Goods until all amounts payable by the Purchaser in respect of any Goods (or on any other basis) have been paid. Until such payment has been made the Purchaser agrees to hold the Goods as bailee for SELCO and shall label and store the Goods in a manner which clearly shows the ownership of SELCO.

If the Purchaser fails to make any payment when due or if SELCO has reasonable grounds to believe that the Goods have been or will be destroyed, damaged, endangered or removed from the normal place of business of the Purchaser, or that the Purchaser is unable to pay its debts when they fall due, SELCO may (without prejudice to any other right) withhold delivering further Goods and repossess and dispose of any Goods already delivered or ordered and may at any reasonable time enter any premises in which the Goods may be located to do so.

If any question arises as to the ownership of any Goods, the onus shall be on the Purchaser to prove that in respect of those Goods that title has passed to those Goods. All Goods in the Purchaser’s possession shall be deemed to belong to SELCO unless the Purchaser can prove otherwise.

Production of a copy of this Agreement shall constitute evidence of SELCO’ authority to enter any such premises and remove the Goods at its discretion.

Returns

SELCO’s policy is to only accept returns when there has been an error on SELCO’s part as evidence by the original packing list and confirmed by the returned Goods. For example, duplicate order, mis-shipments, defective or damaged Goods where the defect or damage has been caused by SELCO must be notified within 7 days of receipt of Goods.

All returned Goods must be sent to:

SELCO

All returns must be approved and an authorisation number obtained and marked on the outside of the carton prior to Goods being returned to SELCO.

All return requests must be accompanied by the invoice number on which the Goods were shipped.

All returned Goods must be shipped freight pre-paid unless otherwise agreed by SELCO. Unauthorised and freight collect returns will be refused and returned to the Purchaser and freight will be charged to the Purchaser.

All approved returns will be credited back to the Purchaser including the original discount terms, or Goods replaced from stock at SELCO’ discretion.

SELCO has the right to refuse any returned Goods that are damaged through improper packing OR improper display methods at the Purchaser’s location.

The Purchaser may not return any Goods bought as discontinued lines, seconds or discontinued sales.

All credit return Goods must be returned in saleable condition including packaging.

If SELCO approves the return of Goods for any reason other than where required as set out in these Terms and Conditions or under Australian Consumer Law, SELCO will give a credit to the Purchaser against future purchase of Goods. Under no circumstances will any cash refunds be given in these circumstances. The Purchaser acknowledges that SELCO has no obligation to accept return of Goods and approve credits other than where required as set out in these Terms and Conditions or under Australian Consumer Law.

SELCO’s liability in respect of a breach of a consumer guarantee or any express warranty provided by SELCO for Goods not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use is limited to,  the extent permissible by law and at SELCO’ option;

(b) the repair of the Goods;
