2.2 Any variations to these Terms (for example specific variations agreed with credit account Buyers) and any representations about the Goods shall have no effect unless expressly agreed in writing by an authorised representative of the Company. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any statement, promise or representation made or given by or on our behalf of the Company which is not set out in the Contract.
2.3 If you are not a Consumer, you confirm that you have authority to bind any business on whose behalf you make an order.
3. ORDER PROCESS
3.1 Note that there will be no contract of any kind between you and us unless and until we actually dispatch the Goods to you. Your Order is an offer to buy Goods from us and it is your responsibility to ensure that the terms of any Order that you submit to us are full, complete and accurate. Nothing that we do or say – including any order acknowledgments sent to you by, or on behalf of, us - will amount to any acceptance of that offer until we actually dispatch the Goods to you. At any point up until then, we may decline to supply the Goods to you without giving any reason (including, without limitation, if any products in your Order are out of stock, your payment is not authorised, you are not eligible to order in accordance with these Terms, the pricing or product description on our Website is incorrect), in which case we will contact you by e-mail.
3.2 By placing an Order with us to buy any Goods, you authorise us (and our agents acting on our behalf) to transmit information to third parties or to obtain information about you and/ or any information about any other individuals that you may include in your Order, from third parties from time to time, including but not limited to your debit or credit card number or any relevant credit reports, to authenticate your identity and/ or the identity of any other individuals that you may include in your Order and to carry out credit checks, to validate your credit card, to obtain an initial credit card authorisation and to authorise individual purchase transactions.
3.4 Unless otherwise agreed in writing by an authorised representative of the Company, all quotations which we issue shall remain open for period of 30 days unless previously withdrawn. A quotation for the Goods given by us shall not constitute an offer by us capable of acceptance by you or any other party and no Contract shall come into existence until the Goods are dispatched.
4. DESCRIPTION
4.1 The description of the Goods you include in your Order shall be as set out in our quotation or acknowledgment of your Order.
4.2 While we take due care in drawing up preparatory materials, all samples, drawings, descriptive matter and specifications provided by us and any descriptions or illustrations contained in our catalogues, brochures or Website – or provided to you directly - are issued for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Goods described in them. They shall not form part of the Contract and there shall be no sale by sample.
5. PRICE
5.1 Unless special terms have been negotiated in writing by an authorised representative of the Company (for example for high volume Buyers or where Printed Products and/ or Bespoke Products are supplied), the price for the Goods shall, subject to clause
5.2, be the price quoted in the catalogue on the Website from time to time. The total price to be paid for Goods, including VAT and any delivery or shipping costs, will be clearly stated before you are asked to confirm your Order.
5.3 While we do our very best to ensure that all prices on our Website are accurate, errors may occasionally occur. If we discover an error in the price of Goods you have included in an Order we will inform you as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming your Order at the correct price or cancelling it. We are under no obligation to provide any Goods to you at an incorrect price, even after we have sent you an Order confirmation and/ or delivered the Goods to you, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing. If we are unable to contact you, we will treat the Order as cancelled. If you cancel and you have already paid for the Goods, you will receive a full refund.
6. PAYMENT
6.1 Payment for the Goods can be made by the methods shown on our Website at the time you place your Order. If you choose to pay by credit/debit card we will take payment from your card at the time we receive your Order, once we have checked your card details and have confirmed that stock is available. In the event that we take payment from you before the Contract is formed and thereafter we do not accept your Order, we shall make a full refund of your payment to you. Any Goods on the same Order which have not been included in a delivery do not form part of that Contract. If you are a registered credit account Buyer, unless otherwise agreed in writing by an authorised representative of the Company, payment shall be due within the agreed credit period of the issuing of our invoice. Any quotation for Printed Products and/ or Bespoke Products will set out the payment terms which will apply to such Contract.
6.2 Time for payment shall be of the essence and no payment shall be deemed to have been received until we have received cleared funds.
6.3 All payments outstanding under the Contract shall become due immediately on termination of the Contract.
6.4 You shall make all payments due under the Contract in full under the Contract and shall have no right of set-off, counterclaim, abatement or otherwise in respect of any claims you may make against us or any sums due by us to you (howsoever arising).
6.5 If you fail to pay any sum due under the Contract by the due date:
(a) we shall be permitted to cancel or suspend delivery of any other Goods ordered by you which have not yet been delivered, including any instalments not yet delivered; and
(b) ownership of ALL bespoke/custom printed goods, held in storage by Go for Green, shall transfer to Go for Green until such times as the outstanding sum is paid in full.

7.1 Subject to the remainder of this clause 7, your Order will be fulfilled as per the requested delivery option chosen and to the delivery address given when you place your Order.
7.2 You shall provide at the delivery address and at your own expense adequate and appropriate equipment and, where necessary, manual labour for unloading the Goods.
7.3 We make every effort to deliver goods within the estimated timescales, however, delays can occasionally occur due to unforeseen factors. Time for delivery shall therefore not be of the essence and we shall be under no liability for any delay or failure to deliver any Goods within estimated timescales.
7.4 Where possible, we try to minimize shipping costs and packing materials by consolidating Orders into single cartons and/ or single deliveries.
7.5 We are entitled to deliver the Goods in separate instalments. Each instalment shall be a separate Contract and no cancellation or termination of any one Contract relating to an instalment shall entitle you to repudiate or cancel any other Contract or instalment.
7.6 If for any reason you fail to accept delivery of any of the Goods when they are ready for delivery, or we are unable to deliver the Goods on time because you have not provided appropriate instructions, equipment, documents, licences or authorisations or through any other fault on your part:
(a) risk in the Goods shall pass to you (including for loss or damage caused by our or our carrier’s negligence);
(b) the Goods shall be deemed to have been delivered;
(c) we may store the Goods until delivery and you shall be liable for all related costs and expenses incurred by us in respect of such storage (including, without limitation, storage, redelivery costs and insurance);
(d) we shall be permitted to cancel or suspend delivery of any other Goods ordered which have not yet been delivered, including any instalments not yet delivered; and
(e) any redelivery costs shall be at your expense.
7.7 We shall not be liable for any non-delivery of the Goods (even if caused by our or our carrier’s negligence) unless you give written notice to us of non-delivery within 7 days of the date of despatch as outlined in our despatch notice.
7.8 OFFENSIVE WEAPONS ACT 2019 Following recent changes in legislation, please be advised that we will only arrange delivery of bladed articles, cream charger bulbs or corrosive substances to commercial premises, where the recipient is above 18 years of age.

10. RETURNS
Where you purchase from us, as a business customer or as a consumer, we agree to replace or refund in full, and to collect from you at our expense, any faulty or defective Goods, but only to the extent that you notify us in writing by e-mail or letter of any faults or defects within seven days of receiving the Goods.
Any other returns will be at our sole discretion. We will only consider accepting goods in a saleable condition cases, received back in the same condition as when they left our warehouse. Any damaged goods will not be accepted.
The customer is responsible for returning the goods to our warehouse at their own expense. Go for Green will not be responsible for any goods sent by the customer that get lost in transit so we suggest that you send any returned goods via a recorded, signed-for service so you have proof of receipt.
A business customer can request for Go for Green arrange a collection on their behalf if required. Collections are made Monday-Friday from 8am-5.30pm through a courier service. Specific timed collections are not possible with our couriers and please note that they also charge for failed collections where a customer is not available or the business is found to be closed at the attempted collection time. If this service or terms are not suitable for you, we suggest you arrange your own return. The charge for the collection service will be quoted for on an individual basis as prices vary depending on weight and location. The collection charge will be deducted from your credit note.
After the goods have been received and checked by the warehouse, we will issue a credit note or refund less a 20% restocking charge of the original price paid by you for such goods.
