1.         HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED

1.1      These Terms and Conditions do not affect your statutory rights, if applicable. To order Products through our website or by any other ordering method you must be at least 18 years of age and be legally capable of entering into binding contracts. We will treat each order for Products or Services as an offer by you to purchase the Products and Services subject to these Terms and Conditions. We have the right to refuse at our discretion to supply any Products and Services ordered by you and all orders are subject to acceptance by us. We will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the Product or Service has been ordered (“Order Confirmation”). The contract between you and us (“Contract”) will only be formed when we send you the Order Confirmation.  Any pre-printed or other terms on your purchase order or other ordering document are hereby rejected and shall be void and of no effect.

1.2      These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the parties. The Customer acknowledges that it has not relied on any statement, promise or representation made or given by or on behalf of the Company which is not set out in these Terms and Conditions.

2.         AVAILABILITY OF PRODUCTS

All Products are subject to availability and may be withdrawn at any time. However, it is our policy to contact you if a Product is out of stock for more than 7 days, and if you do not wish to proceed with the order, or for any reason we cannot supply the Product, we will arrange for the order to be cancelled.

3.         DELIVERY

3.1      All delivery dates are estimates only, and we do not guarantee any delivery dates.  Time of delivery shall not be of the essence, and we shall not be liable for any losses, costs, damages or expenses incurred by the Customer or any other person or company arising directly or indirectly out of any failure to meet any estimated delivery date. Delivery of the Products shall be made to the Customer's address (US delivery only); deliveries outside the US cannot be guaranteed, and an additional delivery charge will apply at cost, and the Customer shall make all arrangements necessary to take delivery of the Products whenever they are tendered for delivery. 24-hour delivery is offered at an additional charge.

4.         TITLE AND RISK

4.1      The risk in the Products shall pass to the Customer on completion of delivery.

4.2      Title of ownership of any Products invoiced and delivered will not pass to the Customer until all Products supplied have been paid for in full, provided however, in no event shall title pass to Customer with respect to any software embedded in or otherwise provided with any Product, and all such software is licensed, not sold, pursuant to the Manufacturer’s terms and conditions which accompany the Product.

4.3      Until title to the Products has passed to the Customer, the Customer shall:

            4.3.1 hold the Products on a fiduciary basis as the Company’s bailee;

            4.3.2 store the Products separately from all other goods held by the Customer so that they remain readily identifiable as the Company’s property;

            4.3.3 not remove, deface or obscure any identifying mark relating to the Products; and

            4.3.4 maintain the Products in satisfactory condition and keep them insured against all risks for their full price on the Company’s behalf from the date of delivery;

4.4      An order placed by a Customer is deemed to be a financial commitment by the Customer and therefore the value of the order is payable according to our terms. The Company reserves its right to recover outstanding monies as a shortfall from any repossession of Products. By repossession the Customer is not relieved of its liability of the original debt or the costs related to any recovery or attempted recovery of the debt. The Company reserves its right to seek damages, debt collection fees, interest and court costs and any other recovery costs due to the default of the Customer to pay in full the value of the Products and or Services.

5.         TIME LIMITATIONS FOR NOTIFICATION OF CLAIMS

5.1      Damage: Should any damage be identified to the Product on opening the package following delivery, the Customer must advise the Company within two (2) business days of delivery of the exact damage. It is imperative that the Customer does not dispose of any of the packaging, as this will be required to effect a claim against the carrier. The claim will be handled by the Company. We cannot accept any claims for damage if the above timescales are not followed.

5.2      Shortages: It is the Customer’s responsibility to sign for the correct number of packages that are delivered.  The Customer is required to check that the number of packages delivered equals the number of packages on the delivery driver’s manifest/consignment note and it is the Customers responsibility to thereafter notify us of any shortages within two (2) business days of delivery. Should the Customer be missing an item but has signed for the correct number of packages, the Customer must notify us within two (2) business days of delivery. The Customer will be requested to provide us with a copy of the invoice. The matter will be investigated and the Customer will be informed of the decision.

5.3      Incorrect Products: It is the Customer’s responsibility to notify us of any incorrect Products supplied within two (2) business days of delivery. If the items are not as ordered, the Customer must not open the Manufacturers packaging or use the Product. The Customer will also be required to provide further information on what was received (i.e. we may require the Manufacturer part codes and a full description of what has been received). Should there be any extenuating circumstances that have prevented the Customer from  notifying us within the specified timeframe, resolution will be by mutual decision.

5.4      Non-Deliveries: We will not accept liability for Products lost in transit unless we are notified within five (5) days from the expected delivery date. This will be the date advised on the Customer’s automated dispatch note which is emailed to the Customer once the items have left our warehouse. We shall accept no liability for shortages, non-deliveries, incorrect Products and Products damaged on delivery outside the reporting timescales, except when extenuating circumstances have prevented notification within the reporting timescale. The extenuating circumstances must be by mutual agreement. 

6.         PRODUCT WARRANTIES; DISCLAIMER

If the Products are damaged, we reserve the right to reject the Products and no credit or refund will be processed. Before we accept a return you must contact us to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) for Products shipped back. Call our customer service department at 888-820-0760 for RMA instructions. Please note: disposable components such as electrode pads and batteries that have been used / opened cannot be returned for refund.

8.         FAULTY PRODUCTS

If you think that the Product you have purchased is faulty, you should contact us immediately. If we are unable to determine the nature of any fault, we may refer you to the Manufacturer, due to their extensive knowledge of their Product. If the Manufacturer agrees that the Product is faulty, in most cases they will be able to authorize a replacement/repair of the Product direct to you. A restocking fee of up to 25% is charged on returns which prove to be non-defective. It is therefore imperative that you have made contact with us or the Manufacturer before returning any Products. The restocking fee is non-negotiable. In all instances when contacting a Manufacturer, you must retain the reference code that you are given. If the Product fails within 30 days of receipt, a replacement Product or full refund of the cost of the Product will be offered to you, at the Company's discretion.

We do, however, reserve the right to refund you within 30 days of the return. A handling fee of 10% will be charged on all refunds unless a Product is faulty and is under warranty by the Manufacturer.

9.3      Faulty Products returned within 30 days will be refunded in full including the original shipping charge (refund of original shipping charge applies to Customers in the United States only). If the Products are found not to be faulty or they have been damaged by misuse, they will be returned to you and no refund will be issued.

9.4      We do not refund shipping charges applied to the initial order, and neither do we pay for the cost of returning the items to us, except where the Products are returned by Customers in the United States ONLY as faulty within 30 days of our shipment date.
