7. Unless otherwise stated the Price does not include GST. In addition to the Price the Client must pay to Alpha Timber an amount equal to any GST Alpha Timber must pay for any supply by Alpha Timber under this or any other contract for the sale of the Goods. The Client must pay GST, without deduction or set off of any other amounts, at the same time and on the same basis as the Client pays the Price. In addition, the Client must pay any other taxes and duties that may be applicable in addition to the Price except where they are expressly included in the Price.

In the event that the Client is unable to take delivery of the Goods as arranged then Alpha Timber shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee for redelivery and/or storage.

8. Risk
8.1. Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods passes to the Client on Delivery and the Client must insure the Goods on or before Delivery.
8.2. If any of the Goods are damaged or destroyed following delivery but prior to ownership passing to the Client, Alpha Timber is entitled to receive all insurance proceeds payable for the Goods. The production of these terms and conditions by Alpha Timber is sufficient evidence of Alpha Timber’s rights to receive the insurance proceeds without the need for any person dealing with Alpha Timber to make further enquiries.

8.4. If the Client provides Alpha Timber materials for processing Alpha Timber will accept no responsibility for the security of the Goods while held on Alpha Timber’s site.
8.5. The Client acknowledges that Goods supplied may exhibit variations in shade tone, colour, texture, surface and finish, and may fade or change colour over time. Alpha Timber will make every effort to match batches of product supplied in order to minimise such variations but shall not be liable in any way whatsoever where such variations occur.
