GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE
The mere act of placing an order orally or in writing implies the client's full acceptance of our terms and conditions of sale set out below.
- Our invoices are payable in cash upon delivery for sales to individuals and in Milmort no later than the 15th calendar day after the invoice date, without discount, unless otherwise stated in an order confirmation from us, for sales to merchants.
- Each unpaid invoice at its due date will automatically incur interest of 12% per annum and a fixed compensation for late payment of 10%, with a minimum of €50. The failure to pay an invoice will result in all other invoices or commercial papers becoming due regardless of their own due dates.
- The goods sold remain the property of the seller until full payment of the invoices, regardless of where the goods are located; in the event of non-payment, the seller has the right to recover them. The buyer agrees not to deal with goods that have not been paid for.
- Delivery times confirmed in an offer or in an order confirmation from us are provided for guidance only and do not bind us. Delays caused by our own supplier, regardless of the cause, constitute a source of conventional force majeure on the part of the seller. Delivery delays do not give rise to a right to compensation on the part of the buyer.
- The goods travel at the buyer's risk even when sold free of charge or when the transport is organised by us.
- Any dispute concerning the quantities or apparent defects of goods must be made in writing within 8 days of delivery. After this period, delivery is deemed to be in accordance with the contract, and no evidence to the contrary may be presented.
- The seller is not responsible for any damage to pavements, conduits or other property belonging to third parties during the delivery of goods, in cases where this delivery does not take place on public roads. The buyer is responsible for any damage caused to the seller's or carrier's equipment, as indicated by S.A. Van Dijck, following deliveries on unsuitable grounds.
- The seller is not responsible for defects or colour differences in natural stones.
- The seller is not responsible for indirect, incidental or consequential damage, such as commercial damage resulting from the use of the delivered goods.
- In the event of a dispute, the courts of Liège shall have exclusive jurisdiction; Belgian law shall apply.
- These terms of sale take precedence over the customer's purchasing conditions.
