The customer will still be obliged to pay in full for the order in respect of which delivery was late, including any of the sums charged specifically for the provision of the Guaranteed Turnaround Service (€œthe Premium Charges€). Where the late delivery is as the result of the action or inaction of a third party, such as a carrier, the Vendor, at their absolute discretion, may elect to extend the Turnaround by one Working Day and the customer shall not be awarded a Credit during this time.

In addition:

• These services rely on the customer not delaying the progress of the order in any way (which delays include but are not limited to the customer not returning proofs by the time specified by the Vendor or failing to make payment by the time such payment is due) (a €œCustomer Delay€). In the event of a Customer Delay the customer shall not be awarded a Credit and the customer shall still be obliged to pay the Premium Charges but the Vendor shall not be bound to deliver within the Guaranteed Period.
• Delivery of work by the Vendor shall be deemed to take place upon collection of the work by the customer (where the customer is obliged to collect the work) or (where the Vendor is obliged to deliver the work) actual delivery of the work to the customer by the Vendor. Where the customer is obliged to collect the work, customer’€™s failure to collect the work on the day on which the Vendor is contractually obliged to have it ready for collection shall be classed as a Customer Delay. Where the Vendor is obliged to deliver the work to the customer but the customer provides the Vendor with incomplete or incorrect delivery information or is not available to accept delivery, then provided that the Vendor has used reasonable endeavours to deliver the work to the customer, a failed delivery shall be classed as a Customer Delay.
• Unless otherwise specified the price quoted is for collection of the work from the Vendor or the Redshift Limited Production Hub 16-18 Cashew Street, Grenada North, Wellington, New Zealand. A charge may be made to cover any extra costs involved for delivery to a different address.
• Should expedited delivery be agreed the Vendor shall be entitled to make additional charges on a time and materials basis to cover any overtime or any other additional costs involved, including without limitation, the cost of couriers or special delivery post.
• Should work be suspended at the request of or delayed through any default of the customer for a period of 30 days or more the Vendor shall then be entitled to payment for work already carried out, materials specially ordered and other additional costs including storage.
• Risk of loss or damage to work completed by the Vendor shall pass to the customer on delivery. Notwithstanding delivery and the passing of risk in the work to the customer, ownership of and title to the work shall not pass to the customer and shall be retained by the Vendor until the Vendor has received payment in full in respect of the work.
• In the unlikely event that the Vendor deems it necessary to re-print work, the Guaranteed Period shall recommence from the time of the Vendor’€™s confirmation to the customer of its agreement to reprint the work.
• Unless otherwise specified, payment for all Goods and Services shall be made no later than: (i) on completion for non account Customers; (ii) the 20th day of the month following invoice for account Customers.

• If the Customer defaults in any payment or commits any act of bankruptcy or any act which would render it liable to be wound up or if a resolution is passed or proceedings are filed for the winding up of the Customer or if a receiver is appointed for all or any assets of the Customer, the Vendor may cancel any Order without prejudice to any other rights it may have and payment for all completed Orders shall immediately become due.

11. Variations in quantity

Every endeavour will be made to deliver the correct quantity ordered. However some variation is inherent in the print process and it is understood and accepted as reasonable that minor variations are immaterial and that the Vendor shall have no liability in respect of such variations.

16. Materials supplied by the customer

The Vendor may reject any paper, plates or other materials supplied or specified by the customer which it considers to be unsuitable.
