1. Acceptance 

1.1          Any instructions received by Bebe Distribution LTD from the Buyer for the supply of Goods shall constitute acceptance of these terms. 

1.2          These terms are the entire agreement between the parties in relation to the supply of Goods by Bebe Distribution LTD. 

2. Price and Payment

2.1          The price of an item paid must match the price stated on the day of order. 

2.2        Bebe Distribution LTD may require full payment before accepting any order for Goods. The amount owed will be stipulated at the time of the order of the Goods and shall become immediately due and payable. 

2.3          Time for payment for the Goods shall be of the essence and will be stated on the invoice, quotation or any other order forms. If no time is stated then payment shall be prior to delivery of the Goods. 

2.4         Bebe Distribution LTD may withhold delivery of the Goods until the Buyer has paid for them in full. 

2.5          Goods and services tax together with all other applicable taxes and duties must be paid by the Buyer in addition to the Price.

3.1          The Buyer is responsible for providing the Delivery of Goods address. The Buyer shall make all arrangements necessary to take delivery of the Goods whenever they are tendered for delivery. 

3.2          Delivery of the Goods to a carrier is deemed to be a delivery of the Goods to the Buyer. 

3.3          The costs of carriage and any insurance which the Buyer reasonably directs Bebe Distribution LTD to incur shall be reimbursed by the Buyer and shall be due on the date for payment of the Price. 

3.4         For a claim regarding missing stock, damaged items or item boxes, the claims must be raised within 7 days of delivery to receive a full credit.  

3.5         If there has been damage to the stock on arrival, we will provide either a credit note or send a new item if available or preferred.

3.6         If there is damage to an item’s box, but the item is not damaged, we will provide a replacement box. 

3.7.        If an item is missing from a delivery, depending on Buyer’s preference, Bebe Distribution LTD will provide either a credit note or let you know when the missing stock can be dispatched. 

3.8 If parties have agreed upon a time of delivery or if the Seller has specified a time of delivery, this time of delivery in not viewed as a deadline, unless parties have agreed otherwise specifically and in writing.  

3.9  The Distributor exceeding a time of delivery does not justify the dissolution of the contract by the Buyer and therefore does not lead to the consequence that the Distributor is liable for the compensation of loss that the Buyer may possibly have incurred as a consequence of the actually later time of delivery. 

4. Risk and Title 

4.1          Risk in the Goods passes to the Buyer on delivery. If, prior to title passing, Bebe Distribution LTD gives notice in writing to the Buyer to return the Goods or any of them the Buyer must comply with such notice at its own cost and the rights of the Buyer to obtain ownership or any other interest in the Goods shall cease. If the Buyer fails to return the Goods when notified Bebe Distribution LTD (or its nominee) may enter upon and into land and premises owned, occupied or used by the Buyer or where the Goods are situated as the invitee of the Buyer and take possession of the Goods, without liability for any damage thereby caused. 

4.2          If any of the Goods are damaged or destroyed prior to property in them passing to the Buyer, Bebe Distribution LTD is entitled, without prejudice to any of its other rights or remedies under these terms and conditions (including the right to receive payment of the balance of the Price for the Goods), to receive all insurance proceeds payable in respect of the Goods. This applies whether or not the Price has become payable under these terms. The production of these terms by Bebe Distribution LTD is sufficient evidence of Bebe Distribution LTD’s rights to receive the insurance proceeds without the need for any person dealing with Bebe Distribution LTD to make further enquiries. 

5. Defects/Returns

5.1          The Buyer shall inspect the Goods on delivery and shall within 7 days of delivery notify Bebe Distribution LTD of any alleged defect, shortage in quantity, damage or failure to comply with the description or quote.
