Save where otherwise agreed delivery of the Goods shall be made by Comloc Computer Security delivering the Goods to the address supplied by the Buyer. Comloc Computer Security shall use its reasonable commercial endeavours to ensure that orders for Goods received and accepted by Comloc Computer Security before 12.00pm are dispatched on the same working day (subject to stock availability) although Comloc Computer Security shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the Goods however caused. Time for delivery shall not be of the essence of the Contract unless previously agreed by Comloc Computer Security in Writing. Where an item is out of stock at the date of acceptance of the order by Comloc Computer Security the Goods will be dispatched at a later date with no extra carriage charge. Where the Goods are to be delivered in instalments, each delivery shall constitute a separate contract and failure by Comloc Computer Security to deliver any one or more of the instalments in accordance with these Terms or any claim by the Buyer in respect of any one or more instalments shall not entitle the Buyer to treat the Contract as a whole as repudiated. If Secure Computer Limited fails to deliver the Goods (or any instalment) for any reason other than any cause beyond Comloc Computer Security reasonable control or the Buyer’s fault, and Comloc Computer Security is accordingly liable to the Buyer, Comloc Computer Security liability shall be limited to the excess (if any) of the cost to the Buyer (in the cheapest available market) of similar goods to replace those not delivered over the price of the Goods. In the event of non-delivery of the Goods the Buyer must advise Comloc Computer Security of such non-delivery in Writing either within 3 working days if the goods were dispatched using a Next Day Delivery option or on the 15th working day if the goods were dispatched using the Royal Mail Second Class Delivery option from the date on which Comloc Computer Security confirmed its acceptance of the order in Writing. In the event of a short-fall in the Goods the Buyer must advise Comloc Computer Security of such short-fall in Writing within 3 days of receipt of the delivery of the Goods. If the Goods are received damaged, the receipt should be signed “Damaged” and Comloc Computer Security should be notified within 24 hours of the delivery of the Goods and failure to comply with this requirement may result in your claim for repair, refund or replacement of the damaged Goods being invalidated. If the Buyer fails to take delivery of the Goods or fails to give Comloc Computer Security adequate delivery instructions at the time stated for delivery (otherwise than by reason of any cause beyond the Buyer’s reasonable control or by reason of Comloc Computer Security fault) then, without limiting any other right or remedy available to Comloc Computer Security, Comloc Computer Security may: (a) store the Goods until actual delivery and charge the Buyer for the reasonable costs (including insurance) of storage; or (b) sell the Goods at the best price readily obtainable and (after deducting all reasonable storage and selling expenses) account to the Buyer for the excess over the price under the Contract or charge the Buyer for any shortfall below the price under the Contract.
8 RISK AND PROPERTY
Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods shall pass to the Buyer at the time of delivery or, if the Buyer wrongfully fails to take delivery of the Goods, the time when Comloc Computer Security tenders delivery of the Goods.
