1. Definitions
In the terms and conditions of sale set out below, The Sand Trading LLC and all of its subsidiaries is referred to as the “Company”. The “Purchaser” is the person, firm or company to whom the quotation is addressed or by and on behalf of whom the order is placed.

‘Stock Items’ refers to plain stock items with no personalisation, ‘Customised items’ refers to plain stock items that are personalised for the Purchaser, and ‘Bespoke items’ refers to unique design items that are made to order specifically for the Purchaser.

Target delivery date refers to the estimated delivery date at the point of sale and is not a guaranteed delivery date.

2. Validity of Quotation
The Company reserves the right to refuse the Purchaser’s acceptance of a quotation unless such quotation is stated to be open for a specific period and is not withdrawn in such period. No binding contract shall be created by the acceptance by the Purchaser of the Company’s quotation until notice of acceptance of the order has been given in writing, which shall have been signed by the Company’s duly authorised representative, or the Company has indicated its acceptance of the offer by making delivery or part delivery of the goods and payment has been received. In the event that no quotation is given by the Company and it has received an order from the Purchaser, all deliveries are made subject to these General Conditions of Sale.

3. Prices
Unless contractually agreed otherwise, price lists may be altered without notice and goods are invoiced at prices in force on the day of despatch. In the case of goods and/or services, which are the subject of a written quotation, the validity of prices is as detailed in that quotation.

Variations – In the event of variations or suspensions of the work by the Purchaser’s instructions or lack of instructions, the contract price shall be adjusted to reflect costs involved. Where a price per unit has been quoted and the Purchaser requires a smaller number of units to be delivered than those quoted for, the Company reserves the right to adjust the rates of prices applicable thereto.

4. Product Representation
Product details and specifications within published literature of any form should be considered as an initial guide, the Company reserves the right to make changes to products that are not subject to existing contract award without prior consultation.

Some of the items which the Company offers for sale are fashion items and may not be suitable for sports or other activities. The Purchaser should therefore be satisfied that the items are suitable for the type of sports activity that they wish to use them for prior to ordering.

5. Samples
All sample orders are chargeable at full RRP and are required to be paid in full at the time of ordering. Not all sample orders are returnable, however, where the sample order has been agreed as returnable, these products must be received by the Company no later than 28 days from date of despatch. Upon receipt of the returned sample products, a credit note, or refund will be issued within 20 days. Sample orders identified as returnable will need to be returned by The Purchasers own chosen delivery method. We would recommend that all returned items are sent via courier or registered post. If the goods fail to arrive at the Company, you will not be eligible for a credit note or refund. The Company cannot be held responsible for goods lost or damaged in transit. Goods returned after the return period has expired will not be eligible for a credit note or refund and the order will be returned to the Purchaser at the Purchasers own cost.

6. Manufacture
The Item supplied to the Purchaser shall comply with the Agreed Specification of product code stated in the Order.
The Company shall be entitled to approach the Purchaser to propose modifications to the Item subsequent to the date of the Order.

Any and all logo approvals are the sole responsibility of the Purchaser. Once approved no changes can be made.

7. Schedule Order

Where the contract is to be or may be fulfilled in separate instalments, deliveries or parts, payments for each instalment, delivery or part shall be made as if the same constituted a separate contract.

8. Delayed Delivery By The Purchaser
Should the Purchaser, for whatever reason, delay the delivery of an order, where materials have been purchased, and work has already been completed on the order, the Company reserves the right to invoice for, the value of the order at the time the delay is notified, at that time or at any time thereafter.

15. Reservation of Title
Notwithstanding delivery of the Goods to the Purchaser, ownership of the Goods (both legal and equitable) will not pass but remain with the Company. However, immediately on delivery to the Purchaser or into custody on the Purchasers behalf (whichever is the sooner) the risk in the Goods will pass to the Purchaser. Property in the Goods will pass to the Purchaser when all outstanding debts owed to the Company in respect of the goods relevant to this contract have been paid in full. Until that date, the Purchaser is to hold the Goods in a fiduciary capacity as bailiff on behalf of the Company, and shall be responsible for adequately insuring the Goods and if required shall store the goods in such a way that they can be recognised as being held in a fiduciary capacity.

Notwithstanding that the Purchaser may hold the goods in a fiduciary capacity only, the Company will allow the Purchaser the power to use the goods in its normal course of business and to sell the goods to third parties and to deliver them on the condition that so long as the Purchaser is indebted to the Company, the Purchaser shall assign the benefit of any claims against such third parties to the Company and in any event, if the Purchaser received the proceeds of such sales from third parties, such proceeds are to be held by the Purchaser for account of the Company (who shall be permitted to trace such proceeds) to the extent that the Purchaser is indebted to the Company under this contract.

If payment by the Purchaser under this contract becomes overdue in whole or in part, of if the Purchaser shall commit any other breach of this contract or any act of insolvency (as hereinafter defined), the Company shall be entitled (without prejudice to any of its other rights) to treat this contract as discharged, and to repossess the Goods, the subject of this contract, or the mixed goods, or any of them, as the case may be, and to enter upon any premises where the goods may be situated for that purpose.

The Purchaser shall, for the purpose of this clause, be deemed to commit an act of insolvency if any distress or execution shall be levied upon its property or assets, or if it shall make or offer to make any arrangements or composition with creditors, or commit any act of bankruptcy, or if any receiving order in bankruptcy shall be presented or made against it, or if the Purchaser is a limited company and any resolution or petition to wind up such company’s business other than for the purpose of amalgamation or reconstruction shall be passed or presented or if a receiver of such a company’s undertaking property or assets or any part thereof shall be appointed or if in the sole discretion of the company it appears to the Company that the financial position of the Purchaser has become unsatisfactory or impaired.

In the event of the Company repossessing the goods, the Purchaser shall be liable (notwithstanding the discharge of the contract) to pay the difference between the price of the goods and their value on repossessing and in the event of the Company being entitled to repossess the Goods, but being unable to do so for any reason whatsoever, the Purchaser shall pay to the Company the full price thereof, less in each case any amount previously paid by the Purchaser for the goods under this contract.

Any receiver or liquidator appointed over the assets of the Purchaser shall pay into a separate bank account any sums received from third parties in respect of sales to them of the goods by the Purchaser, up to the amount of any indebtedness of the Purchaser to the Company under this contract for the sole benefit of the Company.

17. Intellectual Property Rights
Inventions, technical information, patents, know-how, registered and unregistered trademarks and service marks (including any trade, brand or business names and any URLs or domain names), registered designs, design rights, copyright and moral rights and topography rights (in each case for the full period thereof and all extensions and renewals thereof), applications for any of the foregoing and the right to apply for a claim priority in respect of any foregoing in any part of the world and any similar rights situated in any country.
