means the goods or services which the Seller is to sell in accordance with these Terms and
Conditions of Business. "Order" means the Buyer's order for Goods or services. "Order Confirmation"
means the Seller's Order confirmation pursuant to Section 3. "Price" means the price together with
postage and packing in force at the date and time of the Order, subject to any promotional offer or
discount then applicable. "Person" means any person, firm, or company. "Special Conditions" are any
conditions in relation to Orders set out and designated as such in the Order Confirmation. "Terms
and Conditions of Business" means the standard terms and conditions of business set out in this
document. "Writing" includes, other than for the purpose of Section 9, an email clearly bearing the
names of the sender and the recipient and writing on the screen of a visual display unit or other
similar device.
2. Basis of Sale
These Terms and Conditions of Business and any Special Conditions contains all the terms and
conditions pursuant to which Seller will provide the Goods and any services. The parties expressly
exclude any terms and conditions which the Buyer includes in any purchase order, confirmation of
order or other document. Any variation of these Terms and Conditions of Business and the Special
Conditions will only bind the Seller if agreed in Writing between authorized representatives of the
Seller and the Buyer. The Seller's employees are not authorized to make any representations
concerning the Goods unless confirmed by the Seller in Writing. In entering any Contract and in
accepting delivery, the Buyer acknowledges that it does not rely on representations concerning the
Goods which are not confirmed in this way.
3. Orders and Specifications
All Goods are offered for sale subject to availability and subject to the Seller's acceptance of the
Order. The Seller reserves the right to reject any Order without the obligation to assign any reason
for so doing. No Order shall be deemed accepted by the Seller unless and until it is confirmed
unconditionally by the Seller in the Order Confirmation. The Seller has a policy of continuous
product development and reserves the right to amend the specifications of any of the Goods without
prior notice. Goods supplied may therefore differ as a consequence of multi-standard color systems,
notably the international screen-based color system of RGB and the print color system used by BOXES
BY DESIGN. The Seller endeavors to display and describe as accurately as possible the printed colors
of the Goods which appear on its website but cannot undertake to give any assurance that the colors
of Goods supplied will exactly match those displayed on the Buyer's monitor.
4. Price, Payment and Currencies
The Buyer shall be responsible for all applicable taxes, including taxes applicable in the territory
to which the Goods are sent. Payment must be made by credit card or debit card or by PayPal at the
time of placing an Order which is accepted by the Seller. Payment in full will be taken at this time
and the Contract will be in force. The Buyer undertakes that all details provided to the Seller for
the purpose of the Order and its delivery will be correct and that the chosen method of payment is
the property of the Seller, and that sufficient funds or credit facilities are available to cover
the full cost of the Goods ordered. The Seller reserves the right to obtain validation of the
Seller's credit card, debit card or PayPal details before accepting the Buyer's Order.
5. Delivery
The place for delivery of the Goods will be as shown on the order and the normal method of delivery
(unless specifically agreed otherwise) shall be UPS. The Seller will endeavor to process the Order
and manufacture the Goods within the time period stated for each item. However, because
manufacturing time varies by item of Goods, the Seller reserves the right to combine items into one
shipping package or to ship items separately. Each package will be sent separately by UPS, unless
otherwise stated in the Order Confirmation. Any dates quoted for delivery of the Goods are estimates
only. Time for delivery will not be of the essence of the Contract and the Seller will not be liable
for any loss or expenses sustained by the Buyer arising from any delay in the delivery of the Goods
however caused. The Buyer must inspect the Goods on delivery and, in the case where Goods have been
delivered by carrier, sign the required proof of delivery document or collection acceptance
document. A signature on that document will constitute conclusive evidence against the Buyer of
receipt of the quantity of Goods indicated on that document free from any apparent defect or damage.
The Buyer may not reject the Goods or any part of them solely on the grounds of short delivery of an
installment. If the Goods are alleged to be damaged or defective on delivery, a description of the
alleged damage or defect must be given in writing at the time of delivery and signed by or on behalf
of the Buyer. The Seller reserves the right to make delivery of the Goods by installments. If the
Goods are to be delivered in installments, each delivery will constitute a separate contract. The
Buyer may not treat the Contract (as a whole) as repudiated if the Seller fails to deliver any one
or more of the installments or if the Buyer has a claim in respect of any one or more of the
installments. If the Buyer wrongfully fails to take delivery of the Goods, the Seller shall be under
no obligation to refund the Price. Goods may not be returned to the Seller except as provided in
Section 7 below.
6. Risk and Property
Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods will pass to the Buyer upon delivery to our chosen carrier.
Property in the Goods will not pass from the Seller until the Seller has received full payment of
the Price and all other sums which are due, owing, or payable by the Buyer to the Seller in respect
of the Contract or any other Contract between the Seller and the Buyer.
7. Returns, Refunds and Rights of Cancellation
The Buyer shall have the right to cancel any Order for Goods only in the following circumstances: if
the Seller has failed to deliver the Goods ordered within 28 days after the date of the Order; in
the case of defective Goods at the earliest opportunity after the Buyer has discovered the fault or
defect (provided that the Buyer shall be deemed to have inspected the Goods as soon as reasonably
practicable after delivery and in no case longer than 14 days after receipt). Notice of the wish to
cancel must be made by email to the email address of boxesbydesign.com shown below. For the
avoidance of doubt, save in respect of defect or defective goods, nothing in these Terms and
Conditions of Business shall give to the Buyer rights of cancellation regarding the Goods which, by
their nature have been made to the Buyer's specifications or are clearly personalized. In the case
of cancellation under Section 7, the Seller shall be responsible for all sums paid (including
initial and re-delivery charges (if any)) in respect of the Goods in question. All items of Goods
which are returned by the Buyer to the Seller must be returned in their original packaging (which
the Buyer should retain for the purpose) and must be in an unused condition.
8. Limitation of Liability
The Seller will not be liable for short delivery or defective Goods unless a claim is notified to the
Seller in writing in accordance with Section 7 or, where upon reasonable inspection of the Goods,
the Buyer should have become aware of such defect. The notification must include the Order
confirmation number, delivery note number and details of the claim. In the case of a valid claim,
the Seller may, in its sole discretion, replace the Goods (or the part in question) or refund to the
Buyer the Price (or an appropriate proportion of the Price). The Seller will have no further
liability to the Buyer in respect of the matters referred to in this Section 8. The Seller will not
be liable in any way for loss, damage, costs or expenses (including loss of profit) arising directly
or indirectly from any failure or delay in performing any obligation under this Contract by reason
of any event or circumstance outside the reasonable control of the Seller, including (but not
limited to), any strikes, industrial action, failure of power supplies or equipment, government
action or Act of God. The liability of the Seller, its agents, employees, subcontractors and
suppliers with respect to any and all claims arising out of the performance or non-performance of
the Seller's obligations in connection with the use of the information provided under the Contract,
or the rendition of services hereunder, whether based on warranty, contract, negligence, strict
liability or otherwise, shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the net purchase price (excluding taxes
and freight) for such products or services. In no event shall the liability include damages for loss
of profits or revenue; increased cost of purchasing or providing materials, supplies or services;
cost of replacement capital; claims of purchaser's customers; inventory or use charges; or
incidental or consequential damages of any nature. This limitation of liability section shall
prevail over any conflicting or inconsistent provision contained in any of the documents comprising
this Contract. It is up to the Buyer to take precautions to ensure that whatever computer equipment
and/or software selected for use is free of such items as viruses, worms, Trojan horses and other
items of a destructive nature. In no event will the Seller be liable to the Buyer or any other party
associated with the Buyer from any direct, indirect, special or other consequential damages for any
use of the boxesbydesign.com website, or any other hyper linked website, including without
limitation, any lost profits, business interruption, loss of programs or other data on the Buyer's
information handling system or otherwise, even if the Seller has been expressly advised of the
possibility of such damages. THIS SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "WITH ALL FAULTS". BOXES BY
DESIGN, INC. AND ITS AFFILIATES HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY,
NON-INFRINGEMENT OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS
WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.

given or made as follows: if sent by personal delivery, upon delivery at the address of the relevant

The parties irrevocably agree that the courts of the State of North Carolina have non-exclusive
jurisdiction to settle any disputes which may arise in connection with the Contract.

exercising that right or power. When it does exercise a right or power it may do so again in the
same or a different manner.
Statutory Rights
The rights of the Seller and the Buyer and remedies under the Contract are additional to and not in
derogation of, any other rights and remedies they may have at law.
Severability
If any term or provision in the Contract is found to be void, against public policy, or unenforceable
by a court of competent jurisdiction and such finding or order becomes final with all appeals
exhausted, then the offending provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it
valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, then the same shall be
deemed stricken from the Contract in its entirety, and the remainder of the Contract shall survive
with the said offending provision eliminated.

problems.

responsibility for the content or the use of such website. It is up to the Buyer to take precautions
to ensure that whatever it selects for its use is free of such items as viruses, worms, Trojan
