No other terms or conditions will apply to the supply of products by Electus unless they are accepted in writing by Electus. Electus is a business-to-business supplier. The website is intended for use by business customers and not for consumers or private individuals.

Any Recommended Retail Prices are already inclusive of GST. It should be noted that goods exported by Electus are exempt from GST.

PAYMENT
For approved account Customers payment is due no later than 30 days from the end of the month in which the products were invoiced, without any deductions whatsoever. Otherwise payment by cash, credit card, subject to authorisation, or direct deposit is required with order prior to delivery. Any subsequent refund of orders paid for by credit card will be made to the relevant credit card account. Cheques and postal orders must be made out Electus Distribution Pty Ltd and crossed. If the Customer fails to make payment by the due date then, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, Electus will be entitled to cancel any unfilled order or suspend any further deliveries until the account is in order, withdraw credit facilities or adjust the Customer’s credit limit and interest at the rate of 10% per annum payable daily will be charged to all outstanding invoices not paid within terms.

Electus will not be liable in any circumstances for a failure to supply any product ordered by the Customer.

Electus reserves the right to decline to trade with any company or person. To avoid duplication, written confirmation of telephone orders must be clearly marked “Confirmation only”. Electus will not accept liability for orders not so marked and duplicate orders will be charged accordingly. Electus will use reasonable endeavours to meet delivery estimates but in no circumstances shall it be liable to compensate the Customer for non-delivery or late delivery.

NON-STOCKED / INDENT ITEMS
Products marked as “Indent” or not included in our website are not stocked by Electus and may have minimum order quantities or minimum line values applied to orders. Such items are intent items and require an irrevocable order.

EXPORT ORDERS
Customers are responsible at their expense for obtaining any licence and complying with any export regulations in force within this country and the country for which products are destined. Payment of overseas export orders is via Telegraphic Transfer prior to good being despatched.

DELIVERY
In order to keep freight cost as low as possible, Electus has negotiated low freight rates based on high volume. Electus reserves the right to charge the freight cost to the Customer unless other arrangements have been pre-arranged. Electus uses these preferred carriers unless specifically requested by the Customer. If the Customer requests a specific carrier, we cannot guarantee access to the despatch dock without prior notice. All freight costs for specific carriers cannot be prepaid; they must be “Freight Collect”. For “Freight Collect”, insurance responsibility for the products passes to the Customer once product has been passed to their carrier. Where Electus are unable to supply a complete order from stock, this charge will only apply to the original despatch. All subsequent shipments to complete the order will be sent freight free.

INSPECTION, DEFECTS AND NON-DELIVERY
The Customer must inspect the products as soon as is reasonably possible after delivery and Electus shall not be liable for any defect in the products or shortages in delivery unless written notice is given to Electus within 7 days of delivery. Electus does not write software comprised in the products and it is the Customer’s responsibility to check for the presence of computer viruses before the products are used. In the case of non-delivery, the Customer must notify Electus immediately the invoice is received, otherwise no liability can be accepted. Any liability of Electus for non-delivery or defective products shall be limited to, at Electus’ discretion, replacing or repairing the products within a reasonable time or to refund any monies already paid in respect to the products. The Customer accepts liability for all freight costs incurred in the return of products including warranty repair or replacement of faulty goods without exception.
