1. Customer Acknowledgement

The Customer acknowledges agreement with these Terms and Conditions of Sale by the placement of an order to purchase product from PCTE. PCTE is the trading name of Papworths Construction Testing Equipment Pty Ltd This contract of sale is between the entity named on the invoice (the “Customer”) and PCTE.

All goods are supplied on these terms and conditions only and no person in the employment or otherwise as agent for PCTE has any authority to supply goods on any other terms and conditions or to vary these terms and conditions in any way whatsoever.

2. Return or Exchange of Goods

PCTE will credit goods returned within a reasonable time (generally 7 days) provided the goods are in original condition, original packaging, current version and not a special order, hardware, peripheral or clearance item. Where PCTE incur costs in receiving returned goods they will be deduced from the credit price.

Please note that where the plastic seal of a software package is broken the return or exchange cannot be accepted due to copyright and licensing restrictions unless faulty nor defective. In this case we will not help the Customer obtain a working copy.

Return or exchange of testing equipment and peripherals is sometimes not possible due to third party constraints on PCTE (unless faulty). Unless agreed otherwise prior to purchasing, all sales shall be considered firm sales.

All products sold by PCTE are covered by the manufacturers’ warranty that accompanies the product unless otherwise stated. PCTE makes no additional or independent warranty.
