Every care is taken to ensure that all Goods submitted by a Customer are returned in the condition in which they were received. However, any and all items submitted to the Supplier, which are the property of the Customer or any Third Party on whose behalf the customer is acting, are submitted entirely at the customers own risk.

GENERAL: If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is declared by any judicial or any other competent authority to be void, voidable, illegal or otherwise unenforceable or indications to that effect are received by either party from any competent authority then that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so these Terms and Conditions shall otherwise remain in full force and enforceable.

These Terms and Conditions supersede any prior agreements between the parties whether written or oral.

These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida and shall have non-exclusive jurisdiction to decide any dispute concerning these Terms and Conditions or the subject matter of these Terms and Conditions.

No waiver by the Supplier of any breach of these Terms and Conditions by the Customer shall be considered as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provisions.
