- General
Our Site is owned and operated by ONE Business Group Limited, a limited company registered in England under company number 09675201 Unit 3, Vista Place Coy Pond Business Park, Ingworth Road, Poole, Dorset, United Kingdom, BH12 1JY. The following terms and conditions of sale of ONE Business Group Limited apply to all orders, sales and deliveries of its products that it sells in its sole capacity as distributor, via catalogue, promotional materials, website or telephone calls. The products sold by ONE Business Group Limited are directed exclusively at clients acting in their professional capacity (hereafter referred to as the ‘Client’). Therefore, when placing an order with ONE Business Group Limited, the Client agrees that he or she is acting as part of his or her professional activity and therefore is not regarded as a consumer as defined by UK consumer law, this being a crucial factor in entering into a contract with ONE Business Group Limited.
- Quotes and orders
Only written quotes are valid, and for the duration specified therein. Otherwise, the duration is 1 month. Orders can be placed online, by phone, mail or fax, with the company letterhead or stamp, or by email. The contract comes into force after formal acceptance by ONE Business Group Limited of the order placed by the Client. ONE Business Group Limited will respond by sending an order confirmation by the most appropriate means to the Client’s address. The Client must check the confirmation and notify us immediately of any errors. Otherwise, the contract will apply to the order confirmation. Any order placed in the name of or on behalf of the Client is deemed to be made by himself or herself, an employee or a person authorized for that duty.
- Price
Product prices and service offers, applicable taxes, shipping fees and related fees are indicated on the invoice issued by ONE Business Group Limited. Unless there are specific contractual provisions, offers and price lists correspond to the prices valid at the time of designing the catalogue and website updates and are not binding beyond that point. Orders accepted are subject to price increases imposed on us by our own suppliers and circumstances beyond our control that would make delivery impossible or more costly.
- Payment terms
All invoices are payable in full and without discount. Any delay in payment after the deadline indicated on the invoice will automatically lead to the application of penalties for late payment at a rate of 1.8% per month of delay, as well as a fixed sum of £40 per invoice paid late. This amount may be increased if the recovery fees exceed the amount of the late penalty.
- Delivery times
Delivery times are set in good faith and are for guidance only. Unless otherwise stipulated in writing, a delay cannot, in any case, justify the cancellation of an order or any compensation. If a product is out of stock, delivery time will depend on how long it takes to get new stock from the supplier, in which case ONE Business Group Limited will then inform the client of provisional delivery time.
- Delivery charges
Delivery fees stated on the website apply to orders for mainland UK. Fees for delivery to the Channel Islands are considerably higher and are calculated on a case by case basis according to the weight and dimensions of the package. If Clients wish to receive their goods in less time, they can opt for Express delivery for certain destinations at a charge of £7.99. For express delivery, additional charges apply for heavier orders.
- Delivery – ownership
Any missing or damaged parcels should be noted on the delivery note before signing it. The contents of the package must be checked, and any concerns must be communicated to the carrier within 48 hours by registered mail with acknowledgement of receipt. Ownership is transferred to the client after full payment. Otherwise, ONE Business Group Limited will be entitled to demand the immediate return of the delivered products.
- Complaints
If the goods ordered do not meet the expectations of the Client, they can be returned to ONE Business Group Limited under the following conditions: (1) Any request to return goods must be made in writing within 14 calendar days after delivery. Upon receipt of the request, ONE Business Group Limited will send the Client a returns reference number; (2) Products must be returned to ONE Business Group Limited by registered post with acknowledgement of receipt within a maximum period of 15 calendar days after the Client receives the returns number, in their original packaging, with a copy of the invoice and with the above-mentioned returns number marked clearly on the package. Costs and risks of transport will be the responsibility of the Client. Once received by ONE Business Group Limited, the returned items will be checked thoroughly to ensure that the product, packaging and parts are intact. After checking the products, a refund or credit note for the amount paid, excluding transport fees, will be issued. Credit notes have a validity of valid for one year from the date of issue. No credit note or refund will be made if (i) the goods returned have been modified, customized, altered, damaged or are incomplete/ or (ii) if the goods have not been returned under the conditions described in this document. In no event can goods which have been adapted to meet the specific requirements of the Client be returned to ONE Business Group Limited.
