Ordering

When placing an order, you warrant that any and all information given is accurate and complete. All orders are subject to acceptance and product availability. Stock information is available on request. Network Signs will check availability before we confirm to meet any delivery dates. If part of an order is out of stock, you will be notified and the decision will be put back to the customer to either change the products to a stock item, or accept a slight delay in the delivery date. Out of stock items will follow as soon as they are completed. Invoices will be sent with the initial order.

Terms and Conditions

All our prices are correct at the time of entering the information, however; we reserve the right to change our prices on any product at any time. All prices exclude VAT which will be added to the final order.

No contract for the sale of any product will exist between you and Network Signs, until we accept your order by dispatching the product to you. When this happens we will confirm the acceptance by sending you an email.

This confirmation email will be sent to the email address given in your order form and will detail products ordered, payment method, cost (including VAT and P&P) and usual delivery times.

You must check all the details on this confirmation email are correct and contact us as soon as possible if any details are incorrect.

If your order has not been accepted, you will receive an explanatory email from us detailing the reasons why.

Colours

We have taken every measure to provide accurate product images for each product for sale. However, due to a number of mitigating factors such as Internet browsers, monitor colour contrasts etc. we cannot be held responsible or liable for any colour discrepancies between the image and the actual product.

If exact colours need to be matched, we require full Pantone references, CMYK or RGB values to be provided.

If no values can be provided we can still colour match off an existing logo, print colour, or embroidery thread. By doing this, you give our design team the permission to choose a colour match to the best of their ability. We will not take any responsibility for this decision though, as colours can vary from eye to eye.

Please note: That when buying bulk orders, Batch colours may vary slightly.

Material Matching

Due to the nature of the manufacturing process, we cannot guarantee an exact match when dealing with materials. We always make every effort possible to match materials or goods in accordance with any samples the buyer has provided. For this reason no condition or warranty to this effect will be implied.

Product batches

Although we will try our very best to do so, we cannot guarantee an exact match when repeat orders are made, as the tone of colours may vary slightly due to different batches.

Artwork

All orders that are placed with Visco Solutions or any Network Signs, company or website need to be APPROVED by the buyer, before we move the order into production. Failure to do so, will prevent the job being completed and will cause delays. We only accept written, emailed approvals.

Mistakes to be checked are spellings, sizes, and proportions. Please take extra care when checking personal information such as Telephone numbers, Addresses, Email address and websites.

Network Signs will not accept responsibility for any mistakes made, if the buyer has APPROVED the artwork which the seller sent. If evident changes are to be made by the buyer, they must inform our design team at the stage of artwork. If artwork mistakes are made by the buyer, they are liable to pay for all the relevant costs incurred. We will not be held responsible if the final products do not meet your requirements due to an artwork mistake. The buyer holds the final responsibility in every way, to order the correct way for the intended purpose. We are only responsible for producing the order to the specifications that was agreed with the buyer.

Visco Solutions and Network Signs reserve the right to charge for any additional artwork required.

Products

At Network Signs we use our knowledge of the industry when choosing materials or products. However throughout the industry these can change regularly, so it is essential that you check the specification of the product you have ordered, before approval to be printed.

In order to avoid this problem, for a fee, samples can be supplied to be approved before completing the full order. This will delay delivery dates.

Also as market and fashion change with time, so do our products. So, even repeat orders are subject to change.

Delivery

Collection from our premises is the preferred way of delivery, anytime within our opening times, after the buyer has been notified that their order is completed and ready to collect.

Once the order has left our building, then the responsibility of the order is passed to the buyer.

To meet your delivery date, Network Signs will ensure that all orders are ready for despatch with time remaining to deliver. But once the order has left our premises with the Postal service or a courier, then the responsibility to get the order to you on time is passed on to the delivery company, and we will not be liable for any un-delivered or late deliveries. Any delivery problems will have to be taken up with the delivery company used.

The delivery period stated within which you will receive your order is approximate. Goods will be sent to the address given by you in your order. Network Signs may deliver in advance of the quoted delivery date.

All our products have different delivery dates. If a delivery date is required, it must be clearly stated when ordering once you have accepted our quote. If not Network Signs will not be responsible for any new delivery dates to be met. If no delivery date is given to the buyer, then the goods will be despatched within a reasonable time. Failure to give a delivery address, will delay the lead times.

Our lead time starts when the final approval has been made by the buyer.

Part Delivery

If you are ordering more than one item, your goods may be sent to you in instalments if certain items are out of stock or printed at an earlier date.

If the goods are delivered in instalments, each delivery is deemed as a separate contract and failure of one the instalments, does not affect the whole order.

Network Signs is not liable to the buyer for any subsequent losses if late or short delivery of the goods happened beyond its reasonable control.

Damaged goods

In the unlikely event that your goods were delivered damaged or defective, the buyer must contact Visco Solutions / Network Signs within 48 hours after receiving goods to report the damaged goods. Failing to do so, will leave the buyer responsible for the goods.

When you receive your goods, all packages have to be checked for any noticeable damage, if you spot any damage or if it is not  possible to check, then sign as “DAMAGED”.

No claim for damage & loss in transit can be considered, unless reported on the delivery note upon receipt of the goods and unless notified to the company within 48 hours after receipt of goods.

Delivery outside of UK

If your delivery address is outside of the UK, you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. You must meet any additional charges for customs clearance. Please note, customs policies vary widely from country to country. We recommend you contact your local customs office for further information.

Please note international shipments may be subject to cross-border inspections by customs authorities. This may delay the delivery date and is not the responsibility of Visco Solutions / Network Signs. Any issues must be taken up with relative customs authorities.

Delivery outside of the UK will also incur an extra additional delivery charge, which will be quoted and shown on the quote/sales acknowledgement and Invoice.

Stock Levels

When an enquiry is made to Visco Solutions /  Network Signs, we act, based on the current stock levels. Lead times are given when the initial quotes are made by the seller. If stock levels are low, then lead times will be extended to accommodate the stock.

Network Signs will accept no responsibility if some products are discontinued.

Price of the Products

All quotes are valid for a maximum of 30 days (subject to availability of the product).

Network Signs hold the right to refuse an order if the quote was done before the 30 days.

Payment

Network Signs accepts most major credit/debit cards:

All credit and debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

Network Signs also accepts payment via BACS, and business cheques. (Clearance required).

We also accept cash as payment, which will only be accepted if it is delivered in person to our Network Signs address. No cash payments will be accepted using the post.

If payment is requested from an unsolicited email address, please contact or customer service team immediately.

We only accept Pound Sterling, payment is required on collection of the order, on receipt of Invoice or within 30 days for account holders.

Typing Error

If a man made error is made on a Quote, Sales Order and Invoice or on our Website, due to a clerical, typographical or pricing mistake. Network Signs holds the right to accept or refuse any orders, even if a contract or payment has been made.

Cancelling an order

If we receive notification from you that you wish to cancel an order, any sum debited to us from your credit or debit card will be re-credited to that credit or debit account within 30 days of your order, unless we have already produced your order.

If we have started the order which has been approved by a member of your staff, then we cannot accept responsibility for the cancellation of the order, and you will be charged the full amount of the order.

Cancellation before the order has started to be produced may be cancelled, but any artwork charges will still be charged at the full price agreed.

If none stock items have been brought in to supply your order, which is then cancelled we cannot be held responsible for this, and so cancellation is not an option.

A re-stocking charge will also apply to you, which will be calculated from the total cost of the order.

Samples

Network Signs will invoice the buyer for any samples that the buyer fails to return, within 30 days of the relevant request by Network Signs for the goods to be returned.

Returns Procedure

No goods can be returned once the order has been delivered if, artwork, quantity and product has been approved by a member of your company. If approved, then responsibility is with you, and payment is still required in full.

Indemnity

You agree fully to indemnify, defend and hold us, and our officers, directors, employees, agents and suppliers, harmless immediately on demand, from and against all claims, liability, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of any breach of the Conditions by you or any other liabilities arising out of your use of our service at Network Signs, or the use by any other person accessing your Personal Information.

Liability
