    18. 4.4 The Seller reserves the right, by giving notice to the Buyer at any time before delivery or performance, to vary the price of the Products and/or Services to reflect any change in the cost to the Seller which is due to any factor beyond the control of the Seller (such as any change in the costs of labour, materials, or other costs of manufacture or supply), any change in the quantities of the Products or Services requested by the Buyer, any change in the delivery dates of the Products or Services requested by the Buyer, or any delay caused by any instructions of the Buyer or failure or delay of the Buyer to give the Seller adequate or accurate information or instructions.

    6. (iv) and/or

    5. 5.2 Delivery of the Products and/or performance of the Services shall be effected by the Seller at the place specified in its acknowledgement of the Buyer’s order.

Delivery will be deemed to occur when the Products arrive at the delivery address. 
    6. 5.3 The Seller will use reasonable endeavours to deliver the Products or perform the Services by the date set out in the Seller’s order acknowledgment but any time or date for delivery or performance given by the Seller is an estimate only.

    7. 5.4 If the Products have not been delivered under Condition 5.2 within 30 days from and including the delivery date set out in the order acknowledgment and the Seller fails to deliver those Products within 14 days of a written notice referring to this Condition 5.4 being given by the Buyer, the Buyer will be entitled to cancel the Contract by giving written notice to that effect to the Seller. If the Buyer exercises its right of cancellation the Seller will refund any monies the Buyer has already paid to the Seller under the Contract and the Buyer will not be required to pay any further monies to the Seller under the Contract.  Subject to Condition 13.2, the Seller’s sole Liability for its failure to deliver the Products will be limited to the price (exclusive of value added tax) paid by the Buyer in obtaining replacement goods of equivalent description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the price of the Products.
    8. 5.5 The Seller shall be entitled at its discretion to make delivery of the Products in instalments and to invoice the Buyer for each instalment individually. Where the Products are to be delivered in instalments, each instalment shall be treated as a separate Contract.

    9. 5.6 If for any reason the Buyer does not accept delivery of any of the Products when they are ready for delivery, or the Seller is unable to deliver the Products on time because the Buyer has not provided appropriate instructions, documents, licences or authorisations then the Products will be deemed to have been delivered and the Seller may:

    1. (b) dispose of the Products, including by sale and (after deduction of all reasonable storage and selling expenses) charge the Buyer for any shortfall below the Contract price of the Products.
    1. 5.7 Notwithstanding Condition 6.5(a), the Seller will have no Liability for any delivery outside of the tolerance in Condition 5.8 or Products damaged in transit which do not conform with the warranties at Condition 6.1 at the time of delivery unless within three (3) days of delivery of the Products such shortfall or damage is confirmed in Writing at that time by the Buyer to the Seller.
