(a) The cost of replacing the goods; or
b) The cost of obtaining the equivalent goods,
whichever is the lowest amount.

(8) The Purchaser agrees to exchange the Supplier’s pallets that accompany the goods purchased with pallets of an identical brand and condition.

Upon receipt of such notice, all monies due by the Purchaser shall become immediately due and payable by the Purchaser unless otherwise notified by the Supplier.

(12) Risk in any products or other equipment supplied to the Customer under these Terms passes to the Customer immediately upon the earlier of the Suppliers ‘s notification upon delivery of the products to the agreed delivery location. Legal and equitable title in the products or equipment is retained by the Supplier until the Supplier receives payment in full. Until title passes, the Customer is authorized to sell the products in the ordinary course of its business.
(13) The Purchaser hereby charges in favour of the Supplier all their estate and interest in any land and in any other assets, whether tangible or intangible, freehold or leasehold, in which they now have any legal or beneficial interest or in which they later acquire any such interest, with payment of all monies owed by the Purchaser. The Purchaser consent to the lodging by the Supplier of a caveat or caveats which note their interest in or over any such land or other caveatable property.

The Supplier may register any security interest contemplated by these Terms and/or any related order or contract on the PPS Register (as defined in the PPSA). The Customer must supply the Supplier with any information and take any steps the Supplier requires for the purposes of effecting and enforcing such registration. The Customer irrevocably and unconditionally waives its right to receive any notice from the Supplier in connection with the registration. The Customer will not allow a security interest to be created or registered over the products in priority to the security interest held by the Supplier.

(15) No terms and conditions sought to be imposed by the Customer (ie Customer conditions of purchase) shall apply to the Supplier.

(16) Upon the Customer’s breach or default of any of these Terms, related order or contract with the Supplier , the Supplier may, without prejudice to its other rights; i) retain all monies paid by the Customer; ii) cease further deliveries of products and services, iii) seek to recover from the Customer all direct loss and costs incurred; iv) take possession of any products not fully paid for and; v) otherwise suspend its obligations under or terminate these Terms and/or any related order or contract.

(17) The Customer indemnifies the Supplier against any claim, loss, damage, liability, cost or expense that may be incurred or suffered by the Supplier arising from or in connection with any breach or default of the Customer of these Terms, any related order or contract or the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth).

(19) If the Supplier, in its discretion considers there is a reasonable and valid necessity to vary these Trading Terms and Conditions and/or Guarantee and Indemnity (below) it may do so by giving 7 days notice to the Purchaser in writing. Unless or except specifically excluded herein, the Supplier retains any rights and remedies available to it in any prior of pre-existing agreement. If the Supplier does vary these Trading Terms and Conditions it may not vary any term in a manner that would render the term unfair by law.

(20) Any contract, order or quotation between the parties in relation to the Supplier ‘s supply of any products or services will be deemed to incorporate these Terms by reference, unless the Supplier otherwise agrees in writing.

(21) a) The Supplier provides access to information held by the Supplier in accordance with Privacy legislation.

  1. b) “The Purchaser acknowledges and gives consent that the Supplier may make enquiries as to the credit and financial situation of the Purchaser, including any proprietor, director, trustee and guarantor as permitted by Privacy legislation and further consent to the use of any information obtained as a result of those enquiries, including information disclosed in the Credit Application, for the purposes of assessing this application for creditworthiness or continuing creditworthiness and as the Supplier reasonably sees fit from time to time, for purposes including but not limited to:
    obtaining and exchanging information with a credit reporting agency, credit provider, credit insurer or insurance broker;
    • passing the information on to a debt collector or solicitor;
    • exchanging further personal information, including consumer and/or commercial credit information, with another body for any use reasonably connected with provision of credit or the collection of debt subject to the provisions of Privacy legislation; and

    ”

(21) The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that these Trading Terms and Conditions take precedence over any terms and conditions which may be contained in any document provided by the Purchaser, unless expressly agreed in writing by the Supplier. Any request from the Purchaser to the Supplier for the supply of goods shall constitute acceptance of these Trading Terms and Conditions.

(22) The Purchaser acknowledges that where the Purchaser consists of more than one party or entity, liability shall be joint and several.

(23) The Supplier is prepared to reasonably negotiate in good faith the Trading Terms and Conditions if the Purchaser contacts the Supplier prior to signing this agreement.
