placing an order for the purchase of goods ('Customer') are sold
subject to these terms and conditions. No variation to these Terms and
Conditions is permitted unless expressly accepted by Picone in writing.
- ORDER ACCEPTANCE
No order shall
be binding on Picone until accepted by Picone. Picone reserves the right
to accept any order in whole or part. Where Picone makes a part delivery
of any order, such delivery shall constitute a separate contract.
- PAYMENT TERMS
All credit
orders are accepted by Picone subject to satisfactory credit approval.
Where credit approval has not been granted, payment for the Goods is
required prior to delivery to the Customer.
Where credit
has been granted, payment for the Goods is to be made on or before 30
days from the date of invoice. Payment is to be made in full without
set off or deduction. Any disputed invoices will be investigated and,
if resolved in favor of the Customer, a credit will be issued to the
Customer.
- TITLE OF GOODS
- Ownership in the
Goods does not pass to the Customer until the Customer has discharged
all outstanding indebtedness, whether in respect of the Goods or otherwise,
to Picone.
- The Customer shall
take delivery of the Goods at Picone's warehouse. Risk in respect
of the Goods shall pass on delivery.
- The Customer gives
Picone, its agents and servants, leave and license, to enter at any
time on and into any premises occupied by the customer, to inspect,
search for or remove any of the Goods.
- If the Goods are
sold by the Customer, the Customer acknowledges that such sale is by
the Customer as bailee for and on behalf of Picone. i.e. holds the proceeds
of the sale on trust for Picone, in an account in the name of Picone,
until payment in full to Picone for the Goods is made.
- Each of the rights
and obligations in this clause are severable and independent so that
it if any is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable, it shall be automatically
deleted from this clause.
- DELIVERY
Prices for
the Goods will, unless otherwise stated, not include delivery. Picone
reserves the right to charge separately for delivery to the point of
delivery specified by the Customer.

to the Customer which are damaged or defective, or which are not otherwise
in accordance with the Customer's order, may be returned to Picone
within 30 days of delivery, at no cost to the Customer.
The Customer
may otherwise return Goods (excluding special purchases which may not
be returned) to Picone:
- provided that it
does so within 30 days of delivery;
- provided that the
Goods are in their original packaging, unopened, and otherwise in a
saleable condition: and
- at the Customer's
expense
- the invoice number
must be quoted
- a credit will be
given to the Customer: and
- risk in the Goods
remains with the Customer until the Goods are received by Picone.
- the customer must
contact Picone and request a 'Return Authorisation' (RA) from Picone,
prior to returning any item and display the RA number on all packaging
and correspondence
- CONFLICTS
These Terms
and Conditions shall apply to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions
contained in the Customer's order. In the event of any inconsistency,
Picone shall be deemed, by delivering Goods to the Customer or supplying
services to the Customer, to have made an offer to the Customer to sell
the Goods or supply services subject to these Terms and Conditions,
which offer will be deemed to have been accepted if the Customer retains
the Goods or accepts the services.
- WARRANTY
Except for
those required or implied by legislation, Picone gives no express warranty
in relation to the Goods and/or services supplied to the Customer, and
the Customer acknowledges that it has not relied on any representation
or warranty made by and on behalf of Picone in respect of the Goods
and/or services. Certain legislation (including the Trade Practices
Act 1974) may imply certain conditions and warranties onto this contract.
To the extent that such conditions and warranties may, as between Picone
and the Customer, lawfully be excluded, all such conditions and warranties
are hereby expressly excluded.
- LIABILITY
The liability
of Picone to the Customer arising out of or relating to the supply of
the Goods and matters incidental thereto, or for breach of a condition
or warranty which cannot lawfully be excluded is limited, at the option
of Picone, to any one or more of the following:
- If the breach relates
to Goods:
- the replacement
of the Goods or the supply of equivalent Goods;
- the repair of such
Goods;
- the payment of the
cost of replacing the Goods or of acquiring equivalent Goods; or
- the payment of the
cost of having the Goods repaired.
- If the breach relates
to services:
- the supplying of
the services again; or
- the payment of the
cost of having the services supplied again.
To the fullest
extent permitted by law the liability of Picone to the Customer in respect
of any loss or damage (including consequential or indirect loss or damage
or loss of profits) however caused is expressly excluded.
- SEVERABILITY
If any term
of these Terms and Conditions or any part thereof is or becomes or is
declared illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever
in any jurisdiction and such term or part is severable, it is deemed
deleted from these Terms and Conditions in the relevant jurisdiction.
- GST
Picone
reserves the right to recover from the Customer all goods and services
tax payable in respect of the supply of goods or services to the Customer.
- NO WAIVER
The failure
of Picone to exercise, or the delay in exercising, any right, power
or privilege available to it under these Terms and Conditions will not
operate as a waiver thereof or preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any right or power.
