Conditions of Use and Privacy Statement

Terms and Conditions of Supply
 
 
The following terms of Sale and Supply shall apply to each other for the supply of Goods unless otherwise agreed in writing. Acceptance of Customers' orders shall be subject to these terms and conditions and cannot be altered by the Customer's terms of purchase.
 
 
1. COPYRIGHT - All goods distributed by the company are subject to copyright, as stated on each item and such copyrights cannot be assigned without the prior written permission of the Publisher or the relevant copyright owner.
 
 
2. NET BOOK AGREEMENT 1957 - Where a publisher stipulates that a book is Net then that book is supplied under the Net Book Agreement 1957 between the Publisher’s association and several firms of publisher. The current standard conditions of sale registered by the Publisher's Association under the Restricted Trade Practices Act 1976 as amended will apply to books sold under the Net Book Agreement 1957. In the event of a conflict between the said current standard conditions of sale and these terms and conditions these terms shall prevail.
 
 
3. PUBLICATION DATE - Books must not be displayed or sold to the general public before the Publisher's advised Publication Date. The invoice documentation shows the advised Publication Date when books are supplied before the Publication Date.
 
 
4. CARRIAGE AND SHIPPING - SOLM does not charge fixed postage or shipping costs. If you want to make a contribution towards carriage and shipping costs, you support the service of 'Servants of the Lord Ministries' and can simply add this to the invoice amount. This applies to all orders. On all orders originating outside the UK we would appreciate a contribution of 20% above the prices charged in the UK.  Items sent to International Customers will be sent overland as printed papers. The customer will be responsible for a faster mail service. Advice on shipping/air freight routes is available upon request.
 
 
5. RETURNS - Returns will be only accepted with prior authorisation from SOLM Customer Services. Please telephone our Service line for a returns number (for both UK and Export accounts). Claims for credit or returns will not be considered unless the relevant invoice number is quoted. Approved returns due to damaged stock or our processing error will be given full credit immediately, providing the invoice number is supplied. Approved returns due to other reasons will be subject to a handling charge of 10% of the invoice value. They must be clean, free of booksellers’ marks or labels, and in the sole opinion of the Company, in a condition fit to be resold. They must also be on the current SOLM stock list at the current price. Items received which do not meet this criteria will not be credited to the Customer and will be held at SOLM for 14 days after the Customer has been advised credit cannot be given. If requested they will be returned to the Customer with a 10% handling charge based on the invoice value of the Goods returned plus the cost of carriage. Damaged goods not claimed by the Customer within 14 days of receipt of the credit note by the Customer will be disposed of by SOLM. Unauthorised returns will be returned to the Customer.
 
 
6. CANCELLATION - Cancellation of an order by the Customer cannot be accepted or goods returned for credit unless previously agreed to in writing by the Company. Where such cancellation is agreed the Company reserves the right to charge the Customer with the amount of any losses or expenses incurred or material used and a reasonable allowance for overhead charges and loss of profits.
 
 
7. CLAIMS - Claims for any damages or shortages must be notified to the Carriers and the Consignors within 3 days of the receipt of Goods, with a copy sent to the Company within the same period. Written notice of claims for non-delivery must be given to the Company within 14 days of the invoice date or in the case of non-delivery of invoice within 21 days of the date of the original order. On no account will claims be considered if notified outside this period.
 
 
8. PRICES - The Customer acknowledges that the Publisher and the Company has the right to change prices without notice. Goods will be based on the price in force at the time of raising the invoice. Any special request by the Customer for Goods to be delivered by any means other than our normal arrangements shall be subject to an additional charge to cover the extra cost, plus VAT.
 
 
9. DISCOUNTS - Full trade discounts will be given to all Customers who can establish that they qualify as retail outlets. Where the company is acting as Distributor for a Publisher goods will be invoiced at the discount rate agreed by the Publisher with the Customer.

10.1 UK and European Union Customers - Payment from retailers in the UK and European Union is required within 30 days net of the invoice date, unless other terms have been agreed on.

We will make it  clear to you when collecting this information as to what we are  collecting and why.
