DEFECTS AND DELIVERY

Provided that the Goods have been stored in suitable conditions and used in accordance with the Manufacturer’s recommendations and for normal and proper purposes, BOS will refund to the Buyer the price of the goods or replace the Goods if the defects which under proper use appear in the goods, within the manufacturers’ warranty period and arise solely from faulty manufacture or materials. Provided always that defective Goods are promptly returned by the Buyer to BOS and become the property of BOS if replaced. These terms set out BOS entire liability in respect of the Goods or Services. BOS liability under these terms shall be in lieu and to the exclusion of all other warranties, conditions, terms and liability expressed or implied statutory or otherwise in respect of the quality or the fitness for any particular purpose of the Goods or otherwise howsoever except any implied by the law which by law cannot be excluded. Save as provided in these terms BOS shall not be under any liability, whether in contract, tort or otherwise in respect of defects in the goods or failure to correspond to specification or sample or for any injury, damage or loss resulting from such defects or failure or from any work done in connection therewith.

INSPECTION OF GOODS

The Buyer shall inspect the Goods or Services provided, immediately on receipt thereof and shall within 48 hours give notice to BOS in details of any ground on which the Buyer alleges that the Goods or Services are not in accordance with the contract or are defective. If the Buyer fails to give such notice the goods shall be conclusively presumed to be in all respects in accordance with the contract and free from any defect which would be apparent on reasonable examination of the goods and the Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the Goods or Services accordingly. In the event that the Buyer establishes to BOS reasonable satisfaction that the Goods or Services are not in accordance with the contract or are so defective the Buyer has the right to the replacement of the Goods/Services or refund of the purchase price against the return of the Goods. In the event of Goods or Services being incorrectly ordered by the Buyer, BOS reserve the right to apply a Handling Charge. In all cases where reasonably possible a BOS Delivery Note number must be quoted. You may choose to return a Product (*exceptions apply) for any reason provided that you notify us of your desire to return the Product within 5 days of receipt and the product is returned to us in a resalable condition – goods being returned must be in their original unopened & unmarked packaging.

*Due to health and safety reasons we’re unable to offer refunds on food or drink items including biscuits, chocolates, coffee, water medical or hygiene products.  Dated products may be returned up to a specified deadline, which can be clarified with our Customer Service team. Bespoke or personalised items (such as clothing) or bulky/ugly items (such as furniture) may not be returned unless damaged or faulty.

PASSING OF RISK AND PROPERTY

BOS shall not be liable for any loss of any kind to the Buyer arising from any damage to the Goods occurring after the risk has passed to the Buyer. Nor shall any liability of the Buyer to BOS be diminished or extinguished by reason of such loss. Title to the property in any Goods shall not pass to the Buyer until all sums due or owing to BOS by the Buyer of such Goods have been paid. Until payment the following provision of this Clause shall apply. The whole of the price shall not be treated as paid until any bank transfer, cheque, card transaction, or other instrument of payment given by the Buyer has been met on presentation or otherwise honoured in accordance with its terms. BOS may sue for the whole of the price at any time after it has become payable.

  • Pledge the Goods or documents of title thereto or allow any lien to arise thereon.
  • Process the Goods.
