This policy applies to online sales only and should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy , Refunds and Cancellations Policy and Shipping Policy.
To read our full Terms & Conditions, you can read our policy here.
1. In these conditions unless the context requires otherwise:
1.1. ‘Buyer’ means the business which buys or agrees to buy the goods from the Seller.
1.2. ‘Condition’ means the terms and conditions of sale set out in this document and any special terms and conditions agreed in writing by the Seller.
1.3. ‘Goods’ means the articles which the Buyer agrees to buy from the Seller
1.4. ‘Price’ means the price for the Goods in pounds sterling excluding carriage, packaging, insurance and VAT
1.5. ‘Seller’ means Morgan Marine Limited
2. Quotations given by the Seller are not offers capable of acceptance by the Buyer. All orders for goods shall be deemed to be an offer by the Buyer to purchase the goods pursuant to these Conditions. There shall be no binding contract until there has been written acceptance of the Buyer’s order or the goods have been manufactured and dispatched by the Seller to the Buyer. Such order shall only take effect on the basis that these Conditions are accepted by the Buyer and shall override any terms or conditions stipulated, incorporated or referred to by the Buyer in the order or in any negotiations..
3. Delivery and installation prices are based on delivery during normal working hours of 0800 to 1800 Monday to Friday. Deliveries outside these periods will be available at additional cost, which can be advised upon request.
4. Payment in full of the Price and any VAT, packaging, insurance and carriage will be made by the Buyer to the Seller at the time of order by debit or credit card. The Seller taking payment from the Buyer’s credit or debit card does not constitute a binding contract (see clause 2 above but if the Buyer’s order is ultimately rejected by the Seller a full refund will follow subject to clause 5.2 ).
5. Each delivery shall be considered a separate transaction and the failure of any one delivery shall not affect the due performance of any separate transactions. All delivery dates, whether agreed in writing or otherwise, are estimates only and, while the Seller shall endeavour to comply with any such date, time is not of the essence and the Seller shall not be responsible for any late delivery. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Seller shall not be liable for late delivery or failure to deliver through any cause which is beyond the control of the Seller.
5.1. All standard cabinets are usually shipped to the Buyer within 3 – 10 working days of the Seller accepting the Buyer’s order.
5.2. All non-standard cabinet shipping dates are to be agreed between the Seller and the Buyer. If it is not possible to agree a shipping date then the Buyer’s Order will be automatically cancelled and a 10% charge levied by the Seller.
6. All claims for damage to, or partial loss of Goods in transit, must be submitted in writing to both carrier and Seller within three days of delivery. In the case of non-delivery of the whole consignment, claims must be submitted in writing to both the carrier and the Seller within seven days of receipt by the Buyer (or the Buyer’s agent) of notification of dispatch of the Goods. In the absence of claims within the terms mentioned above, the goods shall be deemed to have been delivered in accordance with these Conditions.
7. The Seller may, without prejudice to its other rights and remedies, terminate the contract if either there shall be any breach by the Buyer of any term or condition hereunder or the financial responsibility of the Buyer shall, in the opinion of the Seller, become impaired or unsatisfactory.
8. Risk and Property
